That's so much bullshit. They hate us because they live in a cocoon of lies that says we are going to ban the bible, force them to have gay sex, vote for osama, turn Hillary into a Dictator, and surrender to the French.
This same cocoon paints Kerry, a man whose been fighting terrorists his whole life, and his voters as terrorists sympathizers. While Bush, a prep school cheerleader who ignored terrorism for 9 months, tried to cover it up, and has been in bed with rich Saudis his whole life, is portrayed as a tough cowboy.
It's a very comfortable, polished, persistent and efficient cocoon.
Yes, very. Ascroft was at least incompetent. Bush also has several investagations pointed directly at him that have apparently borne fruit. Ascroft wasn't able to kill them off, so we can expect a real hatchetman.
Right to counsel. Right to trial. Right to confront witnesses against me. Protection against cruel and unusual punishment. Protection against unwarranted searches.
Save your sanctimony for the soldier who died believing Iraq was behind 9/11 and his parents who can't bear to think otherwise.
Did you, by any chance, vote for a man who blocked ever single investigation into 9/11 after lying about pre-attack intelligence?
It's just wrong that the main opponent of a series of rational theories based on the scientific method and centuries of carefully recorded and rerecorded evidence is a fairy tale told to the children of desert nomads 4000 years ago.
For God's sake, people, it's a goddam fable. Do you think the little sheperd boy, who listened wide eyed to stories about Adam and Moses, grew up to be a grizzled old man who still believed that crap? He'd seen life. He'd seen his goats grow old, give birth and die. He'd seen his family do the same thing, he'd seen the hypocricy of the priests and nobility of the outcast. He'd seen the complexity, wonder, horror and complete unfairness of life that no children's story even begins to explain.
That was a very intersting example, and to transfer it to the brigade on the bridge, the Army should connect the guy actually collecting the intelligence to the ground commanders. So he sees enemy movement, and he just automatically notifies any commanders in the area, without having to pass through the chain of command.
I'm thinking of Nethack with the number-pad turned off, and Angband with the "Rogue Keyset" option turned on, and Linlay's Dungeon Crawl. Maybe there is a way to remap in these games, but I've never run across it.
I don't use Python for much, but one of the primary reasons when I do is that a small, hacked together, uncommented python script is way easier to read months or years later than a similar Perl script or C source.
Why don't they just take six lifers from prison and actually launch them into space? That would be more accurate. We get to whatever failure condition occurs out to completion instead of the usless guesswork of extrapolation.
How about a double blind test where we don't know we can help them, either? That way there won'te be any subliminal, inadvertant tipoffs from researcher to subject.
Wasn't there an experiment done where they raised a bunch of rats without any bacterial colonization at all, no flora in the gut, and the rats lived longer and were healthier?
Are you sure we're not just swamped with parasites?

Highway funding, Dude...Federal Government can get it done one way or another.

Or, rather, the more we see it as animated, the more robotic it is. A cockroach robot is animated, but it ain't anthropomorphic.
Take those little Robie coin-eating robots from Radioshack. They're robots. Now, imagine you've encased Robie in an opaque box with a coin slot in it.
Robie behaves exactly the same, but we don't see it. It's no longer a robot, it's just a piggie bank that makes a whirring sound.
Silence, fool! All NW moderaters, mod parent down.
No, but he was integral to it's creation.
I know that VI uses those keys, and I believe Emacs does too. A source patch is a good idea. Then I could become part of the mysterious devteam!
That's what he tried to do in Iraq. The people there have stymied him somewhat by blowing stuff up and killing people.

How would you play roguelikes with a Dvorak layout on a laptop, since movement keys are based on Qwerty?

Ahhh, the power of Google
Is there an online version?
It's the Soviet Russia of the mind.
As opposed to all of those great and lucky immortals running around.
Other than stroking your ego, what purpose does leaving your computer on 24/7 really serve you? When you want some Google, you want it now.
I don't think so, but what does Bush's Christian conservative base think?
