No thanks for the poor editing, late stories, exaggeration and FUD, misrepresentation and bias that has come to define the site. Thank god for the users who truly make Slashdot what it is.
Japan does it, Brazil does it for certain visitors, and a few other countries do it. Not common, but by no means unique to the US.
I also feel you are mistaken. Americans are not so casual about fingerprints, and like in most westen countries it is something only to be done when you are arrested. Still, it isn't invasive, and I think it may be a mental block on your part.
Canada is essentially the US, and most of the EU is a nanny state, although not as extreme as the UK. The US actually seems the best of the bunch for many reasons. Odd, huh.
Second only to the UK. It's so fucked up that shit like this happen and that the general populace don't care, or worse when they are informed support it because its only to stop bad people.
Don't be fuckin stupid mate, its only gonna affect criminals!
Sigh. No wonder I left.
It isn't hard. Ebooks are more common these days, so a newer edition is likely to have an e version which means it can be cracked and distributed. Otherwise an older version is likely more than sufficient. If worst comes to worst get it out of the library for the entire semester, then get the overdue fees waived.....
No, that isn't what I did. I provided a counterargument as to why your claims were wrong. As it is, you come across as an ignoramus who doesn't understand how science works, but wants to claim that he does. By all means, keep deferring to consensus and criticizing those who are skeptical of claims made with good reason. Just don't pretend to be any better than the average christian.
Jesus kiddo. Consensus is not an argument for anything. Consensus simply means that's the current opinion held by the majority of people. That's it. Going against consensus is not a bad thing, and should be encouraged when the consensus is not backed up by data, is not reproducible or verifiable and simpler explanations exist.
The whole AGW thing is extremely prone to groupthink, exactly because people are taking the consensus as proof when there isn't enough data to back it up. It is no longer science, and now politics which in this case is also groupthink.
And fuck you for asking for qualifications. Statistics is not that hard, and you don't need qualifications to do it. If someone notices something amiss they should be presented with a reasonable explanation, not have their claims dismissed because they don't have qualifications.
Science is about not taking anything for granted or assuming what may seem obvious is correct. We test and try to falsify everything. Duh Science is an oxymoron. What a useless fecking article.

Taking fingerprints isn't unique to the USA, and within its borders I have far more rights and freedoms than I do in Aus...

Not really....for example Eureka is SF. My point was that W13 is emphatically not.
File locking is well understood and OS agnostic. It's only the Windows haters who try to misrepresent it as a flaw in Windows.
Warehouse 13 is not Science Fiction, it isn't even Science Fantasy. It's just Fantasy.
Yes, I'm sure the bartender will respond exactly as you imagine upon your firm demand in a slightly raised but polite voice.

I've never paid for textbooks....thankfully that's what libraries and torrents are for. At least as a student.
How is it chauvinistic? It is reasonable to expect in a significantly ,male dominated field that a person with a gender neutral name may be male.

Right, except the star wars films did have CGI innovations. You implied they started when Lucas was a kid, which is simply wrong.
jesus, stop saying skim.
So they had CGI in the 40's? Huh. If only some had let Welles know.
you're kind of an idiot, huh? How does your comment have any relevance, at all?
No, it is very common for prices to still end in .99 and just be rounded up.
Mozilla make a browser, that runs on an OS. Why would they want to start making the OS as well?
2345 is a 13 bit password, and twothreefourfive is a 13 bit password
Wanna check that?

Just because they assign number labels to earths they find does not mean there are not infinite earths, or even that they are countably infinite...
Comics are not mythology anymore than any TV show or movie series are. Just stories with good characters does not myth make.
