what the hell are you talking about ? I am just telling that the last time you sent a bush there (or a bush sent you there), there have been more colateral damages than actual accomplishments...
"Only one percent of the earnings of illicit drug trade is earned by the farmers in developing countries," Emafo said. "It has been estimated that 50 to 66 percent of drug trafficking profit is made in developed countries where most of the illicit drugs are consumed," he
said.
So, well, they'd rather grow beans and potatoes to feed themselves instead of growing shite that will only benefit to abroad trafficants...
Saddam was able to get in another twelve years of torturing and murdering innocent men, women, and children What about your "colateral damages" ??? Your fscking embargo just made a million of these. it was even acknowledged by Madeleine Albright.
...that movie, especially the moment they read a chapter in their poetry book in which they compare the beauty of a poem to some mathematical representation...
So, tomorrow's hits will be the same ole shite because of a lunatic narrow-minded nerd ?
Alfred Nobel indeed invented dynamite which has today much more civil uses (building tunnels, starting pre-emptive avalanches, etc.) than military ones. But The Peace Noble Prize is only one of much more prizes.
Muslim is not a nationality, it is a religiona nd seeing that some of the "official" perpetrators you mention were acting in countries where it is current to be a muslim, I'd say that your comment could be closer to the topic.
But I'd still like to explore the sinister potential consequences of a society that is grooming its citizens to be so dependent on banks, to the degree that even the government is buying into it (in Canada, you can't pay your income tax with cash.
as of last time I lived in France, it is (was ?) forbidden to refuse cash as a mean of payment.
Isn't anyone else bothered by this trend? Is anyone still reading this thread?
Nope, they're too busy whining about today's dupe;-)
Take a Valium, you paranoid, X-File watching, crop-circle worshipping, black-helicopter-fearing freedom-junkie. If you're so scared of it, then cut up your credit card and pay for everything with cash. What did you pour in your coffee, this morning ?:-D
OK : I am not especially paranoid, and I don't have a TV set : so I am not sure about what these XFiles are...
Now, I don't care about my privacy that much, but it is also because I live in Switzerland (*the* Bank country) and I sure know that someone may know exactly anything about my purchases... not that I care more.
Of course, I mention "abusing one's privacy" but I consider it'd be legitimate for somebody to be angry if he'd found himself being profiled by a bank: I once met my banker (in France) who asked me "are you felling better today ?" He actually saw I spent some money in a pharmacy. I was not happy : I don't care if he knows but I don't want him to consider that because he knows he should suddenly feel familiar with me.
I changed banks. That's all.
So, now, breath a bit and explain me what your point is : did I insult you ???
CC companies are constantly scanning there databases for "weird" purchases. Like buying gas in NYC at the same time as buying a DVD player in SF. Companies will respond from terminating the card, or trying to phone the (rightfull) owner.. What about online purchases ? If they manage to find something odd in a bunch of online payments, then they are obviously abusing your privacy by profiling your consumption...
It's probably the 4200 rpm hard drives. That'll kill ANYTHING's load time... IIRC, most 'high performance' pc laptops run at least 5200 rpm... I don't think so. Being a Cocoa coder, I'd say that the applications load the minimum of what they need and then perform load-on-demand for subsequent NIBs or other resources. Actually, you can optimize this but I'd advice whoever using MacOSX to:
avoid to reboot it : they just happen to have a wonderfully stable system which also supports APM like you'd not even dream of. by not rebooting it, you'll allow the system to cache most of the stuff, thus making it fatser and faster.
put as much RAM as possible : 640MB ought to be enough, though;-)
Why not millions of french people take shots at Americans having never lived here? My sig was intended as a joke and if you cant take a joke im sorry but thats your problem not mine.
I don't speak for the others. My sister lives in SF where I often go. I also visited her in Texas. I have at least 2 points of view of your (nice) country. It's just that most of the american I worked with in Germany were hardly networking with Europeans... It's a pity but its a fact.
Strange Elm Street where you may get tatooed/pierced if you don't keep an eye at how much you drink...
you know nothing about me, my education or life experience
you don't know me either, do you ?
now who looks ill informed, If you were an afgan woman would you prefer roads or freedom, because freedom is now something they have. Not to further show how ignorent you sound but guess who is rebuilding those roads?? the US Taxpayer (which I have no problem with as a US taxpayer).
All the European newspapers discuss the Taliban's comeback, I guess the Afghan women had better fly away before next summer as they are already regarded as Burqa wearers.
No the French want out of Iraq because they are currently Saddams largest trading partner
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geo s/ iz.html import partners: France 22.5%, Australia 22%, China 5.8%, Russia 5.8% (2000) (11 billions so they represent a 2B$ market, not a great deal) export partners: US 46.2%, Italy 12.2%, France 9.6%, Spain 8.6% (2000) (16 billions : US would spare 8 billions by seizing their oil)
BTW : http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/events/newsnight/164552 7.stm Does the Bush family also have to worry about political blow-back? The younger Bush made his first million 20 years ago with an oil company partly funded by Salem Bin Laden's chief US representative. Young George also received fees as director of a subsidiary of Carlyle Corporation, a little known private company which has, in just a few years of its founding, become one of Americas biggest defence contractors. His father, Bush Senior, is also a paid advisor. And what became embarrassing was the revelation that the Bin Ladens held a stake in Carlyle, sold just after September 11.
I just read the alt.nuke.france newsgroup and your post goes only a little higher than your average compatriots. However, let's face it: I am French, I live in Switzerland I have a Croatian father (we'll get back to this later, OK ?)
I leaved France, OK, I have my reasons but I won't allow a guy that obviously never lived in France to insult this country and its people.
Now, we have a military record, of course. If you look a little further, you'll see that the government indeed resigned but the people kept fighting and actively helped the allies to prepair DDay. It's called "La resistance" and nobody in the World would agree on their cowardness, beside ill-informed rethoricians like you.
Concerning the US Liberators, I'd like to tell you what really happened during the Serbian/Croatian war. Clinton waited until the end of Knin's Battle to send his Tomcats in order to symbolically bomb some some of the Serbian's last positions. You (US) actually didn't help that much. Like you didn't help Afghans by destroying all of their countries infrastructures and leave it to their formers Taliban chieves hands (what ? no status on CNN ?)...
Also, knowing that you smart-bombed the Serbians actually made us (Croatians) sorry for them : because you have deployed so much barbary by poisoning thousands of them to death while they were to resign.
My sources are not the French Press but rather the Croatian Press and they sure wouldnot pardon you to change their freedom fight into this useless pathetic bloodbath.
Now, if the French do not want to fight in Iraq, which I can understand (mirko stands for pacific in Croatian) it is because they considered the million of dead Iraqis that Madeleine Allbright just publicly designated as some "ill side-effect". It is also because such an horrendous attempt at Iraqian people's lives (don't deny it please : you KNOW there will be much more than you can expect) is way over disproportionate regarding the minor threat their leader is.
As you can see, because of our country multi-ethnicity, we are just encouraged to live with our neighbours differences and we accept these as you should with yours.
So, your sig is not only gramatically incorrect but also totally insulting. Do you actually speak more than just English ? I may not read that much fluent in English but I can at least successfully work in trilingual environment... this is called intercultural ability and few Americans know this. I knew one in my former US/Germany-based company.
Next-to-last point : your NYPost guy, the one who say we don't wash... I guess he forgot that the poll didn't take the Marseilles Soap into account, hence the relative gap. But of course, if a New Yorker can mention 3 different pop-art trends and 4 Jewish plates, he will have a harder time discussing the World's history and you'd sure need to know for real what's in a French mind before just denying his abilities to defend itself.
So, the fact is simple : I suggest you modify your.sig the following way: "Les français sont parfois les dindons de singes capitulateurs mais on ne peut généraliser devant un plateau de 300 fromages"
I'd like you to study a comparison of both our countries' achievements while not being in War.
You'll for instance find out that illetrism, misery, insecurity and unhappiness are more present in the USA than in France.
BTW, most of your countries genious come from abroad. (mostly Europe)
And if you want to deal with War, well, remember Vietnam, but also look at the situation in which you let Afghanistan, back in the hands of the Talibans.
So, do not even argue about your so-called superiority...
BTW, Apple released a new Safari beta yesterday. It has an improved SSL subsystem which makes 95% of the previously unreachable SSL servers reachable. See my journal for more...
Actually, I prefered Commander Keen v4->6 Really good stuff with in-game saving, secret levels and this fantastic quizz which made me translate the whole Shikadi Alphabet in order to get to Episode5's secret level. But I loved Bubble Bobble before... And Speedball2, and...Ahhhhhh NOSTALGIA:-)
use a tv or radio tuner card that you'll point to some brownian non-emitting frequency... this could be quite random, after twiddling the data a bit. you could also connect a microphone to your soundcard and acquire whatever noise comes out of your computer fan, toilet flush or whatever... BE CREATIVE !
Yep but as it has around twice the Z's autonomy, one may be tempted by this rather than by Sharp's... Pity Sharp still has not developed: 1) better SL5500 batteries 2) MacOSX iSync compliant transport

If you keep the objects in RAM, won't you risk some data losses in case a power cut occur ?

That's scary, especially when you know that drug-producing countries only get 2% of the jackpot which makes its revenue lower than the actual world-aid.

I guess this is better to use interconnected devices in an interconnected world.
