Might be wise to wear your tinfoil hat when we have millions of Americans capable of voting for someone like Bush through his front facing campaign alone. There is no friction against the government in the states, and they do whatever they want as a result. Why no blow up a couple of towers, or release a new flu strain, or make up some laws? wtf are you going to do about it? exactly... nothing.
we are to believe that a bunch of arabs with intense jihad beliefs sat around in a cave thousands of miles away for two decades contemplating the doom of America by blowing up a few buildings with a few airplanes?
Then a few years later we have Gulf War II, with I being started by daddy?
Think about why the IRA committed their terrorist actions, or why the taliban commit theirs. For somebody to go die to kill you, they must really really have a good motive, and I don't think our elegant lifestyles and cocky denouement are the full picture.
It would more be along the lines of us abandoning Bin Laden years ago during the cold war, but still... a very long time to hold a grudge.
Good idea not to keep all the eggs in one basket, not a good idea to keep 7/10 of them in 1 basket either when it comes to a fundamental that keeps our technology spiraling forward.
So this is more of a reaction than a proactive move by the UK government ftw.
ALL wireless carriers are capped now, I don't think anybody in the states offers unlimited cell phone data as of very recently.
For land based ISPs in the states its a little different, they would lose money. They currently charge like $50 (median like average from mine and friends experience), most people don't use $50 worth of bandwidth, maybe the torrenters do, but they are not the majority of an ISP's users.
Also the RIAA would not appreciate not being able to detect torrent traffic, and they have lobbyists.
I remember the good ol' days when ISPs weren't so anal with their bandwidth. Profit models tend to f' up like this in the long runs.
your opinion... what are you going to do about it?
Say that is the case, human nature dictates we won't do anything till we are just about out of an ozone layer.
Also, what records lol, did we take records 100000 years ago? lol. What if we are completely OFF in our theories and it's because of something completely different that the ice is melting? What if we aren't accurately measuring the ice melt and it's just all underwater? All this and more to be answered... NEVER because the scientists researching this aren't up to snuff on knowledge or funding.
Best bet... there's nothing you can do, so don't worry about it. You'll die in some way, I assure you, why not this one.
Shame it's a REQUIREMENT on slashdot to agree with OP, and not be able to spur discussions that bring all the nature freaks and haters out of the wood work. Either way, mod system needs to go to +3 users or something, too many troll mods, then again WORTH IT (see below:P).
Losing and completing the game don't relate here I guess, main characters die in games all the time (FF7 nostalgia) . Still, I think the movie series was sufficient, the game is based off a concept called "milking the fad", even though book 1 is ancient news, book 5 is making waves. Seems to be the big trend with US media nowadays, to take the trend/fad and make.... 1. a movie 2. a series 3. a game(s)
Book 5 recently came out (august I think), it's book 5 of 7, 2 are not written yet with agot being the 1st book.
Just thought i'd recap a bit, I wish there was more than books for the other 4, as they do progress the story line quite nicely (I have yet to read 5 though).
Ice melts naturally as per nature, we are constantly cycling an ice age, I believe we can still trace back to our old one. I'll be honest I think it's both. Part natural, part humans, we can't tell what is natural and what is caused by us because we haven't been watching the ice for very long on the ice's timescale.
Ice shelves melting are nothing to freak out about though, it happens all the time in nature, what is frustrating is the lack of evidence pointing either way and the accusing finger being pointed at humanity without proof. Also, stating that there is a problem isn't helpful, solving it is. If this guy's for real, he's on step 1 of 8 of the scientific method. It's just like the legalize marijuana conventions, a bunch of rabble shows up and expects to be respected simply for being there, marijuana is still illegal 95%, so what does that do for us, besides the scientist being the boy who cried wolf, and when the actual wolf comes, we're too busy w the boy.
Nature zealots are shit, you have your head so far up your ass, is that china in there?
Stop posting on slashdot, it's too high tech for you, go find a tree to have intercourse w.
Or... post source, stats (from reputable people only), and how u have come to your optimistic conclusion of doom.
He doesn't have to prove anything to me, unless he wants me to do something about it, then he has to prove EVERYTHING to me, or he can go f' himself along w that tree.
You wish you knew 1/2 as much about science as me (pick a field).
Oh wait... there aren't any trees on the glaciers. Shit!
what kind of scientist uses their biast opinion instead of facts. F'in prove it's not natural, then open your mouth Mr. Steven, till then your just another wannabe Jesus.
I guess the problem is we're not really sure what's going on, but that still doesn't mean people should be shooting statements wherever they feel like it, then again we're talking about people here...
I remember back in 2010 it hit like #2 in terms of detection, but I can't find that study anymore, it hit like 99.5+% detection. Made me go hmm, I guess MS knows their own shit best. It works, it really does, it's just not very advertised or known because it's free and MS won't spend revenue telling newbs to download it. I prefer it over the ESET we use at work actually, it doesn't f w your system like norton and mcafee do. On that note, I can set up comodo via f'in w my system for a while to be the superior product by a mile, but that probably requires some serious computer knowledge, I can't tell anymore:)
The sparks will fly from the bugs in the code.... literally!
So I will be emailing City OS support stating I want my street light on sooner, and if their software supports it. Oh, and I also want it to turn off when I'm asleep, so it doesn't shine in my window.
List of sample city OS support emails, starts w this parent!! gogo.
What kills me is angry bird like games have been made in flash since windows 95... WTF is so special about this one??
I'd love to hear the psychology behind it lol, I think it's an ok game for entertainment, but I swear I played this in middle school. I would love to see some higher end graphics games on all platforms, a 1080p screen should be able to do more!
In the meantime, in case you don't have angry birds or your phone handy,
It's made sense to the court system so, you are vastly underestimating what wads of $ and legal can do for a company. It's definitely unethical, if they have a problem w your account, they should term it after showing you violated TOS, not throttle it to the point where u can't use it, BUT are still paying for it, make sense?
However, terming accounts doesn't make them any $, while the customer getting throttle is still paying AND getting shitty service for their alleged abuse.
Torrent traffic doesn't have a big red sticky note on it labeling it torrent traffic, it's determined by # of simultaneous connections and the bandwidth utilization of the client, these are not 100% sure fire ways of blocking p2p. This why I'm able to fully bypass our corporate firewall on port 443 (opened by me for VPN, actual requirement) w torrents, the firewall thinks its VPN traffic.:)
The line based ISPs lost their battle, their bandwidth is cheaper than dirt. Wireless carriers have to build and use expensive towers so their per GB rate is much much higher.
The thing they are trying to avoid is terminating user contracts because they went over their cap limit. I remember when wireless carrier internet was first starting, Verizon termed mine for torrenting down a few linux distros in a day. A year later I got a check for $50 from a class action lawsuit paying for my termed broadband card, stating they terminated my access w/o actually knowing if I was violating their TOS or not, they just assumed I was torrenting w/o actually knowing lol.
This applies to firefox, IE, chrome and every other browser. The exploit they're talking about attacks SSL not the browser, The java required is javascript, not a full blown java applet. The hacker would of course have to intercept your traffic, so a backdoor kind of spyware / malware program is required, or a virus, but the whole point is https just got a lot less safe, especially on infected computers.

Shame I already posted or I would mod you as flamebait (hint mods). Please refer to (#37590502), thanks.
Not the series, the game... the series was great.
the game is based off a concept called "milking the fad"
I'm talking more about why they are making the game here. Try processing what you read in the future before replying, thanks.

Ya, not sure why I respond, your post clearly wasn't worthy of a response, perhaps... I'm bored!
Here's when to cite...
http://library.duke.edu/research/citing/
and
but the observation is that it is melting faster than records show
is why I called you out.
Don't point fingers at humanity w/o being 100% certain is all im saying.
So let me just ask a simple question...
your opinion... what are you going to do about it?
Say that is the case, human nature dictates we won't do anything till we are just about out of an ozone layer.

Another country re-inventing the wheel,
According to

the wheel is hard to reinvent based on the failures.
Lol, you think Meg wrote her own resume, cute.
Can i buy 4-5 lorikeet and throw a party girls would show up to?
Does that goes towards his debt? :)
