Vote against the bill, denying law enforcements precious tools (He didn't)
How about vote to uphold the Consitution and the 4th Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Are there any American citizens (who understand what FISA is) that actually support it?
These are the same people who agree with the suspension of "Habeus Corpus", removal of 4th amendment rights, and removal of 1st Amendment Rights, while limiting the power of the government via their Second Amendment Rights.
My understanding is that relativity has been directly observed several times, whereas quantum theory is still just based on the interpretation of a series of controlled laboratory experiments, which mostly amounts to sifting through the wreckage of a high-energy collision and trying to derive the original state from the leftover pieces.
Congratulations you have viewed Quantum Theory in action; that computer you used to post this message is solidly based on Quantum Mechanics. No Quantum mechanics, no CPU.
Well if you are doing something illegal (like downloading music from bands under the RIAA), not that I condone it, but Usenet would be the best choice.
First of all your provider probably doesn't throttle downloads. Second of all your IP doesn't get sent out to everyone and their mother, the only people that know it are your ISP and Usenet provider.
tl;dr: Usenet binary groups FTW
Forget downloading RIAA music, I don't even condone listening to RIAA music. Its their IP and I really wish they would do us a favor and keep it ALL to themselves.
This is a great opportunity to use critical thought. Study the scientific method, then comparing religious dogma like ID to a scientific theory like Evolution and bury ID.
"Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity."
I'm having a hard time believing that stupidity stretches this far. My guess is that the MSN block list is maintained automatically and somebody found a way to feed bad data into the system.
I'm certain that stupidity stretches beyond imagination, or at least reason.
However nothing prevents Malice and Stupidity from being one and the same.
Right. Well, there's still the whole "If you don't love me I will punish you infinitely for your finite sins" angle. That alone makes the Christian God batshit insane in my book.
I would say any religion based on fear in inherently evil.
I don't disagree that they are evil. I think that the company has many heads. Some tell the truth and the others exploit that to their benefit at everybody else's detriment. However, I do not think that Novell is a bad company, though there are elements that I disagree with (Miguel, that means you).
I'm not saying Novel is evil. I'm saying they're foolish for making a deal with the devil.
There's a sucker at every table and if you don't know who the sucker is, guess who it is?
Ballmer took over in 2000. Here is Microsoft's stock performance since 2000:
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=MSFT&t=my&l=on&z=m&q=l&c=
Ballmer is responsible for:
* The 7+ billion dollar Xbox fiasco
* The Zune marketplace flop
* The PR disaster that Vista has become
* Mass exodus of Microsoft employees to Google and other exciting and growing companies
* A total failure to get anywhere with Search and Advertising
Ballmer has been a complete failure in every single effort by Microsoft to create viable products outside of their core OS/office software/server software products.
These are 5 very good reasons to keep Ballemer around.
Every single point named has been good for the industry in keeping competition alive and technology moving forward. Unlike stagnation which occurs when there is a monopoly.
So I really want to see Steve around for a few more years and keeping up the good work.
Who said anything about being offended? It's a valid topic of discussion to point out that nobody really cares. What offended you so much about my post that made you have to reply? If you don't like an opinion then state your own or refute it.
What do you mean nobody really cares?
I don't have a Mac, don't intend to buy one, yet I do care. Its about fucking time the fruit got support. Now when are they going to have support for AROS?
Too many people have taken the deal with MS the wrong way. Novell really tried to make both camps happy by making Linux and Windows play nicely, but people seem to think that even trying to work with MS in any shape or form is a pact with Satan himself.
I have worked with MS, I can assure you that I have never met a group of people so good a being nice to your face while twisting the knife they just put in your back.
I have those exact same two books. I was thinking of emailing Darl a link to Amazon's pages for them.
LK Forget emailing Daryl, email Novell's Attorney, or just send him a copy. Let him wave a copy in front of the judge and show that Daryl's is either a liar or doesn't know what he's talking about.
I don't know which is better economically, and I don't care. What I do know is that the latter scenario describes a more interesting world that I'd be happier about living in - that means more to me than any reasonable amount of money.
Economically for who?
Buying Oracle licenses is better for Oracle economically. Not buying Oracle licenses where you don't need them and usig PostGreSQL is better for you economically.
The point is intelligent design basically agrees with evolution but suggests that someone kick started it. There is no science which disagrees with this, I see no reason why this couldn't be taught (for what it is) as a theory in a classroom.
Your thoughts?
Other than claiming that an Intelligent Designer uses evolution and a mechanism, can the Intelligent designer be tested for or measured directly? Or how can we put the ID in a lab?
Another question is who Designed the Intelligent Designer who kick started evolution?
It can't be taught as a theory in a scientific classroom because it it not a theory; it is a conclusion, a mechanism or a theology. But it is not a theory.
Wouldn't "Label Overhead" also include the salaries of the people working for the label.
"Marketing/promotion" why? don't they actually collect money from radio stations from playing their stuff? I guess its just another way for the Label to transfer money around so that they can keep more of the money.

EBay is a medium to connect buyers and sellers, nothing more.
EBay is a way of profiting from a sale without actually selling anyting.

We need to convince McCain to that we need to harness entropy as a source of power. Since it just keeps growing, and we're never going to run out.
I have yet to we a well constructed targeted email from a spammer.

More to the point. If someone uses it "right" and hurts someone...
How about suing the developer for negligence by not using due diligence in the correct use of the software?
I would say any religion based on fear in inherently evil.
2 versions of RedHat? I count 3 RedHat descendants: CentOS, Fedora and Mandriva.
CentOS from RedHat Enterprise
Fedora, re-branded successor to RedHat.
Mandriva re-branded Mandrake which was RedHat based.

Evolution and the scientific method have come a long way since the 1800s.
This is a complete fallicy, there is plenty of other evidence. Second, there is no such thing as proof, only evidence. And there is plenty of that.
... he should have just stuck to "Win Ben Stein's Money?"I'm happy he's doing this. I thought he was just an semi-amusing dead-pan comedian before. Now I know the scum for what he is.
