I am 100% for the law. Basically, homosexuals are people who need counseling and rehabilitation. Not, "Oh, it's OK, you can be gay, that bad society tells you your so bad...boo hoo." WRONG! I'm not for being cruel to people who are confused in their gender, but I am ABSOLUTELY opposed to making homesexuality, trans-whatever normal. IT'S NOT NORMAL. It's confusion. I hope Carolina stands its ground. The hell with Bruce Springsteen.
It's ironic that one of the biggest bitches people had about Flash was THE POPUPS, THE ADS!!! FUCKING FLASH!!!!! IF ONLY IT WEREN'T FOR FLASH WE WOULD HAVE THIS FUCKING PROBLEM!!!! Oh well. Sorry guys, it wasn't Flash after all. NOW IT's FUCKING JAVASCRIPT!!!! KILL IT!!!! IT'S EVIL!!!!
Dear Advertisers,
I'm so sorry your tracking cookies aren't able to glean more data from me and my network so you can invade the privacy of me and my family more. My heart aches for you. I'm sorry your profits are down from 1.5 billion to 1.48 billion. Hard times, guys, but you'll get through. Oh yeah, tell those Syrian kids that they just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Since most of them can't even afford food, they don't have much time to worry about adblock, so you should be able to get through to them, they'll be alright soon enough.
They're more like women, and shouldn't be regarded as men. If a man wants to have sex with another man, that's up to him, but I will never see him as a true man until he forsakes that behavior and "Mans Up." Look, if gay men or women want to be in relationships with each other, fine, but don't try to tell people it's normal. It's not normal, it's a severe imbalance in the psyche. Plain and simple. So I will never, ever, teach my children that it's OK to be gay. I've raised them to be balanced in their gender reality. Not so-called "roles." There's a reality to being and man and a woman, that popular culture will never eradicate.
I agree that it's nonsense and that it's an arrogant deduction. But I think that the age of the universe is something that science has been too sure about. Science keeps discovering more and more that makes the universe, time, and space bigger and bigger and bigger. The staggering size of the universe as it's known now was unimaginable 100 years ago. Soon I believe we will be seeing further than the current 14 billion year "limit" with more powerful telescopes--notably the James Webb, but there will surely be more. Already science is discovering structures that are massive but somehow very young and trying to figure out how they could be possible without revising the "age of the universe" theory too much.
Personally, I think the universe is trillions of years old, if not more.
Whoops, I said it on Slashdot. What astounds me is the number of supposedly smart people who have their heads in the sand, and use the intellectual powers to rationalize away their profound fears that this Fukushima accident was a deadly mistake and is indicative of the stupidity of the whole idea that highly radioactive materials, and tons and tons of it, can be stored safely, indefinitely, and without any consequence to the health of the planet.
You smart people sure are dumb
Wow, that's the most sane and possibly courageous thing I've seen posted on Slashdot...ever. At either end of the rhetorical see-saw are usually people who are too lazy, selfish, or timid to stand against to the absurd fundamentalism of religion or the narrow dogmatism of materialistic science. Including the existence of God as the highest intelligence and overcontroller of the universe sets one on the course of integrating all aspects of human life, including science and faith. Faith is confidence. If you're confident that God does want humanity to learn about the environment they're in, and the facts of physical existence, it is not inconsistent in any way to also assume that God would also like us to use that knowledge to take care of one another, and not be cruel, greedy, mechanistic, and sociopathic or to just give in to the banality of human evil. Humans have both left and right brains which have remarkably different functions. The most "intelligent" humans are the ones who have a higher degree of integration between left and right hemispheres, analysis and synthesis, time and space. Leaving God out of the equation is probably the worst thing that has ever happened to science. So what the Higgs Boson is confirmed? Is it going to lead to a better life for millions of suffering humans? Or is it going to make corporate and government psychopaths more powerful?
It blows my mind how many "scientifically" minded people there are on Slashdot, and yet, so many people who are scared to think outside of the box. I guess that's the problem with overspecialization.
How about the fucking radiation pouring out of Fukushima? Japan? It's a goner. It would be more merciful at this point if a giant earthquake or tsunami wiped out the whole continent. Less suffering, no horrible birth defects, no prolonged (or swift) and agonizing deaths due to radiation poisoning, no parents having to watch their kids die. Nuclear power? I call bullshit.
Gee, "siloed environments." Looks like Flash still has a future. Apple's reason for killing Flash? It makes their platform irrelevant. If you can 'write once, run anywhere' who needs to buy a Mac for their "apps?" Please, let go of the technical arguments of why Flash sucks. Those are technical issues which can be overcome, but the real issues of greed and profit? Much harder to surmount.
Didn't some top ranking official recently say something about an internet "Pearl Harbor?" You see, this isn't Anonymous, or any other basement hackers looking for lulz in all the wrong places. This is the fucking government working to tighten control over the internet.
Most, if not all, GM plants are engineered so that they don't produce pollen. That's why farmers need to buy new seeds every year. This is done in order to prevent flux of engineered material to nature.
Bullshit. They're engineered like that so you have to keep buying their product. Wake up.
That's the benevolent part I mentioned. People have to be benevolent to each other, even when it means maybe having to do something differently or to give up long cherished conceits. When people are benevolent to one another, they choose benevolent leadership.
For God's sake (oops, sorry, didn't mean to offend you 'scientists' out there), the biggest problem with Linux heads is such a lack of unity among 'believers.' The problem with Gnome, et al., is that they can't submit to one another. It's like "FUCK YOU! My way is better than yours, so I'ma do it my way. If it doesn't work for you, bite me." So few of the professed devotees of Open Source have it together in that way. Open Source is great, but lack of unity and strong central, and I might add BENEVOLENT leadership is why Microsoft and Apple are making billions and Desktop Linux is still limping along. Thousands of years will go by before the service motive overtakes the profit motive until those that truly are service motivated learn to serve one another.

Can someone with a good understanding of physics explain whether anti-matter could be a possible answer to this question?

Forget internet justice. If it was up to me, anyone guilty of sexually abusing a child would be immediately executed. Sick Fucks.

Adobe Dreamweaver. Been stable for 15 years or more.
Mod parent down. Stupid comment.
Adobe's RTMFP has had this ability for years now, and they've since developed it further to include peer-to-peer rebroadcasting.
Except... it requires Flash, which is a dirty word around these parts.
Nice. Except that to really use RTMFP for peer to peer connections outside your LAN you have to cough up $40,000 for Flash Media Server Enterprise.

Sure, teach people how to be reasonable, rather than devoted cultists of the mighty Temple of Opinion. Oh, wait. This is earth. Never mind.
