Plus I know that nicotine is physically addictive and a software brand is not. His idea that students in schools that use non-free software "can't learn anything" for programming is simply false.

You wanna make an OS? Great. Join the crowd. But don't tell people they are violating people's basic freedom if they don't embrace your disrtibution model and tell them how wrong they are to do so. Just pitch your stuff. If it's good, people will use it. No need to demonize everyone else in the process.
physical prisons and EULAS are the same thing. I'm sorry, but when you equate educational use of paid software with teaching kids to smoke cigarettes, you've gone 'round the bend.
Not sure why Intel thinks this is a good idea. Granted, there is lot of headroom in the women's market for tech, but why not make it inclusive and double your market?
Yes, people occasionally die of it, but for this or any jihadist to think Y. pestis is an effective way to wipe unbelievers from the earth is naive. The range of antibiotics that take care of it is pretty readily available, and the "plague" bacteria are not currently "medically resistant" to them.
"When the microbe is injected in small mice, the symptoms of the disease should start to appear within 24 hours," is hardly rigorous clinical testing. You'd learn more about how to properly culture bacteria from any academic microbiology lab manual.
"Use small grenades with the virus, and throw them in closed areas like metros, soccer stadiums, or entertainment centers... Best to do it next to the air-conditioning. It also can be used during suicide operations." Means they're spitballing this stuff. This is no more instructive than watching a half season of "24".

and more about religion. It's about that dogmatic with him. Does he drive a car?
Any or all of which could be explained by the manner in which the bulb was broken and which body part was involved.
Everyone can recline. Sheesh. The Navy and prison solved this problem ages ago.

No more than my computer should. The owner of the machine has the rights. Next question please.
Thx. The dino is in mid-stride, the figure is just standing in its path, waving. Yup, that's a human alright!

include some scale - you know, a standard metric - a Volkswagen Beetle, football field, Rhode Island?

Yup. Ain't no purple fringing on Velvia.

when the orbiter phones home, but I'm too tired at the moment to suss it out.
A plossl or super plossl (dont spend too much). Adding a barlow to the mix helps.
I think you mean John Dobson
said Ballmer "how much skull-peeling screaming can I do?"
he knows what to do with stuff that hitchhikes on spacecraft.
"Kids get in the car. We're goin' to Ikea!" Fixed that for ya.
