I'll forgive all you VI users. After all we'll be in the same rest home some day. IDE users though will feel my cane of righteousness upon their heads.
Why is it that Emacs fans assume anyone that hates Emacs must be a fan of VI? I hate them both equally for different reasons, and I can imagine many people do.
In the war between Emacs and Vi there are no winners. Only losers.
I had the same thought, so I did a search before posting, and you sir took my idea before I had it! You should work at Google if you don't already, because they do that to me as well.
This is how I knew you were going to post this based on your youtube viewing history and web searches.
And I should say... shame on you, sir, shame on you.
I see you driving ’round town With the girl i love and i’m like, Forget you! Oo, oo, ooo I guess the change in my pocket Wasn’t enough i’m like, Forget you! And forget her too! I said, if i was richer, i’d still be with ya Ha, now ain’t that some shhh? (ain’t that some shhh?) And although there’s pain in my chest I still wish you the best with a Forget you! Oo, oo, ooo
Hindi and his crew were lucky. They should have been arrested. South Carolina has a hunter harassment law.
50-1-137: It is unlawful for a person wilfully to impede or obstruct another person from lawfully hunting, trapping, fishing, or harvesting marine species. Any person violating the provisions of this section is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, must be punished as provided by Section 50-1-130. In addition to the criminal penalty, any person convicted must have his privilege to hunt, trap, fish, or harvest marine species recreationally or commercially revoked for one year. 50-1-130: Unless a different penalty is specified, any person who violates a provision of this title is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, must be fined not less than twenty-five dollars nor more than two hundred dollars or imprisoned for not less than ten days nor more than thirty days.
Actually these laws make a lot of sense. Messing around in a forest where hunting is going on is a good way to get yourself accidentally shot. Which I assume a sub-set of these anti-hunters would love to get some press time for receiving a flesh wound while protecting the animals or some stuff.
[...] which if successful will seriously change everything...
I'm attempting to build an anti-gravity device out of folded paper just now. If that works it will seriously change everything. Why would it work, though?
Because it is a paper airplane. Its range is, however, is limited.
You know what they say about hindsight, but maybe the right course of action for the USA in WW2 would have been to act opportunistic: stay out, let nazis and reds fight to the end, and only then swiftly move in to crush the weakened victor, whoever it is.
The basic idea has merit on a coldly-logical basis, though I wouldn't like the deaths and suffering it would cause to innocent Russians -- or even innocent Germans, for that matter. Problem is, the USSR was in it second-to-last, and Japan would have brought the US in regardless. If it had been purely Third Reich vs. USSR from the start, I agree that sitting it out would have been best.
But lets add the corollary of stepping on butterflies, and WW2 is one heck of a big butterfly to step on. If the USA hadn't acted as they did in WW2, NATO might never have existed, and what became the cold war might have been some quite hot wars over the last 60 years. I think all we can be sure of is changing such a large single event in history cannot be predicted.
The "annoying pocket change" is the only real currency we still have. You'd be better off scarfing up nickels - as many as you can - while they are still composed of nickel. Think pre-1964 silver dimes/quarters for comparison.
You should probably use those nickles to buy food instead of eating them.
Just be careful not to take it too far... Apparently, in the twisted logic of TSA-land, if the gate-rape extends to a full handjob, and you ejaculate on the TSA goon, you have apparently committed the sexual assault.
But maybe it is in fact just driving the youth away and not just criminal types
Fine by me, children are obnoxious.
Now if they could play something to get rid of all the slow walkers too, that would be perfect!
Simple, we will play speed-metal. Either people will be pumped up and move faster, or just move faster to get away from the sound. Either way its win-win for you. However it may attract youths...
Those were just the pissed off souls of those killed by the ark. Which in turn are used to kill more people. Keep on using the ark to have a more powerful ark. Well as long as people watch it. Having a powerful weapon rendered useless by simple closing your eyes is funny. The same could be said for Medusa. Does watching the ark via a mirror not kill you? Who ever has the ark please test that out.
But to answer the GPP's question we must ask this... do souls have mass? If so they must have Higgs bosons.
And if the ark kills by unleashing the souls of those that were killed by it, how did the first person get killed by it? Perhaps they dropped it on top of some poor sucker/s to seed the weapon?
Or perhaps because of his more advanced driving skills he would be able to avoid an accident that would claim a worse driver. It is really hard to tell because everyone considers themselves the best driver.
Both Boisjoly and McDonald were blackballed for speaking out.
I think that's the bigger issue here. NASA really hasn't changed, they're the same arrogant, top heavy, risk adverse organization they bloated into during the 80's. You'd think they would have been humbled by seeing heavy lift moved over to the Russians, but it hasn't dented their attitude one bit.
It's not the lives that were lost, it was the circumstances surrounding the loss and the general lack of accountability afterwards. Engineers who try to sound warnings still will get blackballed. Nothing really changes when you have the problem dictating the solution.
I agree. Someone might ask "If NASA management is so risk-adverse, why did they let these tragedies happen?" It is simple, when management is risk-adverse it has nothing to do with the well being of expendable employees or others. They are adverse to the risk of the hell they will catch if a project falls behind or an organization loses money or customers, or risk-adverse to themselves losing face. Good managers that take responsibility are sacrificed by the ones covering their own asses, leaving only bad managers left.
And let us be clear, if NASA had delayed these launches, some Senator would have raked the managers over the coals for wasting so much taxpayer money, even though it was the right thing to do. So they decided to chance launching with the known flaws in the hopes that everything would turn out fine as it had in the past and they would not lose their jobs.
John Paul II did apologize for Church's Inquisition. I don't know how many times it needs to be done for it to be done. If once is enough, then consider it done.
And it is certainly not enough. Waiting to apologize until everyone that remembers the great great great grandchildren of those that were alive during this time, so long that the "too soon" statute of limitations has expired and jokes are socially acceptable (you can choose between "Lets face it, you can't Torquemada anything!", or "Nobody expects!") and then brushing it off with an "our bad" is certainly not enough.
But now that everyone is long long gone there is nobody left to stand for the dead. At least in Turing's case there are people alive today that can remember the man and the injustice. Perhaps trying to do the right thing could help those that are still alive.
The other other half would go to the politician's pet project, which will somehow find its way into his pockets.
Taxing all games the same.. sure, that is up to the state to decide. A sin tax on games that someone "doesn't like". How does that make sense? If their actual concern was to get kids to do more healthy activities, how does taxing a certain class of games help? Presumably sitting inside playing Mario Brothers is just as unhealthy as Modern Warfare. This is just another excuse to get a revenue stream under the guise of "for the children".
Also, how does money get kids to go outside to play, unless they are being directly bribed? How does money get bullies to stop bullying?
And to add to the absurdity; according to the rules, kids aren't playing Mature and Adults Only games, so how does diverting money from them... uhh... *cracke cracke* you're breaking up...
I did not remember that ending, but the cause of that conflict was different. My real problem is overpopulation. Until we deal with that, random death seems like a good solution. Right now, it's targeted death for specific regions/cultures/etc.
Ah, you are a moron. Thanks for clearing that up.
Anyone who is in favor of killing as a solution to overpopulation is a moron, and should be first in line for their own solution. Please do us all a favor by volunteering.
Population controls, urban reorganization, settlement, are all valid solutions. If you even believe in overpopulation on a global scale, which I certainly do not. I believe tiis more of a a resource allocation problem, which can certainly be solved in other ways than killing anyone that is competing for your resources.
I agree that Mr Houghton was almost certainly trying to copy Mr Fielder's image, however the article doesn't say if the former was tying to sell his image or just put it in his portfolio. (I assume that both are professional photographers money was involved). I don't know if I agree that the lawsuit is reasonable.
My issue with the case is... a lot of photographers are fantastic artists, and even more just take pictures of cliches and call them art. A double decker bus in front of Big Ben? Wow, who would have thought of taking a picture of perhaps the two most iconic features of London (with possible exception of the tower bridge). Making one element of a photo in color with the rest black and white? Every single couple that has wedding photos done professionally does this.
However who gets to draw the line between copyrighted art and easily reproducible and copyable stock photos? I suppose it is best left up to the courts.

What he does with his ass is his own business.
It sounds like he is trying to make it many others' business.
My Commodore 64 out of the stoneage, goes from powerbutton to useable in ~ 0.8 Seconds.
For certain values of usable.

I was having a google just last night to find out when it was coming. I can't wait!
You should probably have a doctor look at that.

Certainly a liar, we all know it's spelled Toes.

do souls have mass?
Currently there is research on that very question.
Also, does data have mass? Also being measured!
Well, Catholics have mass, so...

That is a fairly large amount of energy
It's the amount of kinetic energy in a baseball traveling at about 7 inches per minute
True, but that is 4 TeV per proton. With trillions of those things going around the ring at the same time, the energy gets to be rather significant.

We know that in sudden, widespread disruptive events people loot.
Like the Japanese at Fukushima? Not.
You would loot a nuclear power plant? You must by hysterical during D&D games.
