Genocide? What genocide? Oh, you mean all the arab nations vowing to kill every last Jew in Israel. And actually initializing several wars to accomplish their vow.
Considering that I am pro-communist I don't see how I can be anarchist. The ultimate realization of anarchism is a completely unregulated free-market (ie capitalist) economy. Think about that the next you are out on a idiotic protest.
The Japanese are more than willing to cover up unglamorous aspects of their history, such as the Rape of Nanking. Won't ever find that in a Japanese textbook.
Of course, this practice is probably standard in any country.How many Canadians are aware of treatment of the Chinese immigrants who lost their lives building ours railroads in the late 1800s? How many Americans think that states came out ahead in the 1812 war (how many Americans think the "1812 Overture" is about the war in North America)?
Bloody idiot. What does 16k/second mean? 16k/second does not mean 128kbps, only 16kB/second would equal 128kbps. 16k/second just means 16000 of something each second. What is the something? It could be bits, btyes, miles, frames, or anything else. Don't bitch at the guy because he had to guess at a crucial piece of information that you left out.
As I don't have the time to do something that indepth that would've been pointless
Also, I'm afraid you lack the ability to think rationally.

If you would first define what a PRONO is, maybe I could answer your question, dingleberry.
What were you expecting from someone who can't even spell 'Criticizer' correctly?
That's because NO code should be shown in a data structures class, or at least nothing more than pseudo-code. If you a taking a pure data structures course it is assumed that you already know how to program, and if you know how to program than implementing those data structures in code should be a mind-numbing exercise. The interesting and important part of the course is to understand how the data structure works, and if you need to see code in order to figure out how a tree works than it is probably time to think about changing you program to something else.
Why were they only 10 week stints? That's barely enough time to find your desk and turn on your computer. A four month term is probably minimal, and an 8 month term is even best.
Someones a bit cynical. The trick to co-ops is to go with small companies. The smaller the company, the more responsility you get. That principal has worked for me and just about everyone that I know.
And don't think that the show is over yet. Someday some historians are going be going over some textbooks reading about our lifes and thinking "Gods, they were stupid".
And when was the last that Europe came running to the U.S.? World War II, some 50 odd years ago. And before that, when was the last time? Oh, never.
You Americans lend one piddly offer of assistance and you think that you saved world. By the time the first American troops hit the beaches on DDay, the Russians were well on their way to winning the war in East. Whether or not the Americans had helped in Europe, the Russians would have still been able to walk through downtown Berlin in 1945.
We are capitalist warlords, and I GODAMN LIKE IT. In most circles the lack of progression beyond barbaric tendencies is not something to be proud of.
Don't get me wrong, I like the U.S., but ignorant yahoos like you project an extremely negative image.
Have humans evolved in the past 1500 years? Have we lost the ability to fly? Although I suppose that would be more like de-evolution. Have the laws of physics concerning gravity been altered
Or, have you read in history books that Wudan Warriors really could fly. And St. Patrick really did drive the snakes from Ireland, and St. George really did kill a dragon.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the movie and will be back to see it again. But please don't claim that the ancient Chinese actually posessed the ability to fly. I'm assuming that what you said was in a serious fashion, but that Superman comment threw me off.
On top of all that, as one astute/.'er pointed our Constitution doesn't even give us the right to own property!
What is in a constitution should be a moot point anyway. Consitutions are like training wheels for a country; they're good in beginning to keep you from falling, but if you leave them on to long they'll do nothing but hinder you. When modern French, America, Britain, and other countries started to emerge from the monarchies
the constitutions served to make sure the newly acquired rights of the people were observed. Now that the nations have matured the constitutions aren't protecting anyones rights, but instead clogging up court systems with frivolous lawsuits. The constitution says no cruel or unusual punishment therefore prisoner X can sue the government beacause he got smooth not chunky peanut butter.
Canada didn't even have a constitution until the 1980's, however we seemed to get through through the first 115 years without any major problems. Only the last few have been made difficult due to the introduction of the constitution at such a late of the country's development.
One client specifically has told me if they lose their main E10K (they have 10 of them) they would lose $1 million A MINUTE.
And you believed them? Yet us assume that that computer is doing whatever it is doing 24/7. The $1M/minute would mean $525B/year. Since the highest grossing company in the world is GM at about $150B/year, the $1M/minute figure is highly suspect.
Are you as stupid as you seem? What the hell is this noise about copyright or UCITA or legislation or 'dracon control'? The guild or publishers never mentioned any of these items so why are you? All they did was make a simple request, in much the same way that you ask people at the table to pass the salt.
So here is one of the people with blinders that the original poster was talking about. The issue of property rights was not brought up by either the poster or the guild. No is denying your right to buy or sell books. No one is threatening or coercing Amazon to stop selling used books.
What is being done is that the guild and publishers have send Amazon a letter saying that they would greatly appreciate it if Amazon would promote the new books a little more prominently than used books. Just as I'm sure that you've done similar things all the time. Maybe you told the person sitting behind you in the theatre that you would appreciate if they made less noise chewing their food, or told someone you would appreciate if they moved their car that is parked in front of your house. It is a simple request, it does imply that someone is in the wrong or that you wish to violate their rights.
Oh COME ON! Do you really think there's any danger of someone getting confused and thinking we're talking about KELVIN BITS PER SECOND? What is that? The heat generated by the bit's friction?
Been a few years since I've done any physics, but I though Kelvin was just a measure of temperature like Celsius or Farenheit. Nothing specifically to do with friction.
Space will hoperfully still be around 5-10 years from now. But if what 5-10 years from it is decided to wait another 5-10, and repeat the cycle. It might be a 100+ years before humans any new initiatives are taken. And after that another few centuries before colonizing, terraforming, and whatnot would take place.
The problem is that at some point humans must take to space. I believe that given the population growth and state of the environment the need for colonization will be inevitable. Not within my lifetime or your lifetime, but at some point. Since we know that it will be necessary, we should take steps to prepare for that day. Waiting till the last minute would be disasterous.
You, my friend, are the 'stupid fuckhead' as you so elegantly stated. The previous poster realized that the original poster was referring to multiple governments not a singular one. The poster was trying to make the point that with 180+ countries in the world it is very hard for all of them to agree on a single course of action.
Take, for example, the recent treaty on the non-prolifiration of land-mines. It won the support of dozens and dozens of countries. Canada, the European countries, South American countries, Asian countries, just about every country with an army. However, the good old U.S. and Russia refused to sign the treaty, and without their support the actual usefulness of the treaty has been seriously blunted.
AboveNet can block whomever they choose. They don't need a valid reason, they don't need a reason that would hold up in court, they can do it on a whim.
There is no law saying that ISP must allow uncensored access for their users to internet. If AboveNet explicitly states in their user agreement that they will provide unfiltered access, then they must either provide that access or change their agreement. I strongly doubt that AboveNet would mention something like that in a license agreement however.
AboveNet could block out Yahoo or Slashdot on a moments notice for no other reason then that a manager at AboveNet doesn't agree with a headline. That is the right that AboveNet has. If AboveNet's customers don't like it then they can find another ISP; that's their rights.

Hey, don't forget us left-wing lunatics too. B-)
There's no such thing as left-wing lunatics. Anyone who disagrees with us is just simply insane.
There were people who opposed the Luisianna purchase because 'why should be spend 15 million on all that useless land?"
And after all this time has Louisianna actually contributed anything of importance to the United States?
