Maybe they should use the SMP with dual PIIIs @ 1GHz, SCSI @ 10000RPM to run the site. That way it will be accessible to more than the 4 people trying to see it.
ha ha, thats funny. Considering you can quit a corporation and go work somewhere else. And that there are laws against companies abusing their workers etc. Back when the concept of religion was started you COULDNT go anywhere else. There was nobody protecting you etc. You cannot compare something to today's standards.
I can agree that this is a frequent motive, but you overlook some other ones. Many (possibly not yourself) have varying degrees of concern over where reality came from.
I do think and wonder about where reality and we came from. Just thinking about it for a few minutes just blows your mind away because there is no way to say who if anyone today is right about where we came from.
I shall inform you where my ideas came from. I studied Religion and Ancient Philosophy in Rome, Italy at a Catholic University. We studied all major religions and cultural philosophies for 4 years. My views were obviously NOT encouraged by the university but they accepted my view becuase there is a common sense approach to it. You may not accept my views and I can wholy appreciate that, but just think about my previous post and just think about what I said. I have a valid point which I abviously cannot prove just as religions cannot prove that a god really exists.
Considering a Cannon is a hollow shaft filled with explosives to propel an projectile, my assessment of the story is accurate. If you stuck a VW beetle in front of that tunnel we would not bet on if the Beetle got fired through the air, rather how FAR it flies. I was trying to be sarcastic and funny. it FAILED obvisouly but dont label me as a goatse person. I am not. If you read my other posts you'll see.
Religion and the concept of God(s) were started thousands of years ago to control people. Think about this. You are a peasant under the service of some king 3000+ years ago. Living conditions are horrible etc... you are not happy and neither are the thousands of other peasants like you. You all outnumber the King and his nobles etc. So as the King and Nobles see this and are scared. How can we control the peasants and make sure they do not revolt. (thinking....) AHA Offer them something that CANNOT be proved. In comes God(s) and religion.
"How would you like to be in Paradise. A Place where you are the happiest you can ever be. You have no worries and you are with God. God loves you and will take care of you after you die. Now here is the catch. God loves you but wants to make sure YOU love him back so there are rules that you must obey while you are alive. You have to conform to the religion and do everything the religios leaders tell you to do (nevermind for thousands of years that religious leaders were appointed by Kings etc). You have to be a good person to society etc. Most of the rules were made to keep society stable. If society is stable and happy (looking forward to living in eternal happiness) the chances of revolts are smaller.
So if you obey these rules and live your life in a good way when you die you will go to heaven etc. This is GENIOUS plan and it WORKED. Give the people something that cannot be proven. You cannot prove heaven. You cannot prove God, and you cannot prove any religion is real or true. So how do we get around this, easy PEOPLE MUSH HAVE FAITH! By showing you have FAITH in God you are showing that you love him(her) and want to go to heaven.
This is beautiful plan, it worked and still continues to work. Religion is the biggest con in the history of humanity. If you ever read and reserach why and how the concept of religion started it will make you think twice about the whole concept.
I would use IE if it was as good as the windows version. Netscape. Mozilla etc SUCK! They're bloated, crash a lot and they're Java integration is horrible. I hate Windows but I will give credit to Microsoft for making a very excellent browser.
If Mozilla or netscape made a browser that was better than IE I would use that. It has to do with quality and functionality.
NO they dont get sex.org and they shouldnt!.com,.net and.org and all the others all different. Just becuase you operate sex.org does not give you an automatic claim to all the other sex.* out there.
I agree. I am an ex flashcom customer, who nicely NEVER charged me for anything (THANK YOU!!!), and switched to speakeasy. The old modem still worked and everything is cool. Speakeasy lets you run any type of server you want including DNS servers and if you run a Game server you might be eligble for $10 discount. Havent tried that yet but I might when I get some time. Although pricey at $90 bucks a month, but the Terms of Service make up for it. I PRAY that Covad doesnt die which is the provider speakeasy is going through.
I use my hot mail as a repository for spam and such. My first email is at hushmail. Web based, just need java and Netscape doesnt seem to mind it at all.
I say screw hotmail. Their severs get busy as hell. Anyone here have any issues with Hushmail? Let me know please.
These things are fake. The foot print of the thing is TINY. Balance would be extremley hard to do, let alone trying to land after jumping around. The amount of force you would put on the back part after landing from 4 or 5 feet is huge and would cause it to snap like a toothpick. It is April 1st, so I dont know the validity of this story but come on.
Same thing in the south. Although finding information for the southern lights will probably be harder since more people in the north can see them. North America, Russia, Europe, Japan. In the south you have Australia and South America which population wise are smaller, so most of the info is on the North. Sucks, yes. Life, yes.
Freedom of Choice??? You're on crack. You dont have a choice about dying. Your ass is gonna die one day like it or not. No amount of science (Present Day + few decades) is gonna change that.
I think this discovery could be very very useful to science and medicine. Being able to kill off cancer cells and other types of viruses(maybe) this could have huge value to people. The thing I dont understand is this. Common sense leads me to believe that keeping cells alive longer than nature intended might be a bad idea. Cells replenish when they die. The reason they die is they get too old. If cells DID NOT NEED to die, this gene would not exist. Therefore keeping cells alive longer might have BAD consequences.
Why are people obsessed with the fountain of youth. Is there something so wrong with getting old and eventually dying? Make the most of the time you are alive and dont worry about dying. Eventually we all die, accept it, and go do something productive and enjoyable.
yeah if we only had a whole bunch of unemployed.com people lying around. Hey wait we do, maybe we can make a beowulf cluster of them.
What good will that do? Then we'll just have a bunch of people tied together with network cables. Then again we can use then for a wide area storage solution. hmmm... could work
Mario Bros is one of the classics. Since Mario Bros on the arcade to the present N64 games, The Super Mario series have been some of the best games out there. I think Mario 64 is one of the nicest games for N64. The controls and movements are very realistic (disregarding the whole "flying" thing). The graphics on N64 are in my mind very good.
Sonic was made up by Sega just to combat Mario and lost. I think the Sonic games suck. I havent played Crash Banicoot so I dont know how the PS versions are doing (is it PS, i dont know). Having beaten all the Mario Series, one of the very few games I actually sat down and finished I think the playability in those games when they came out were awesome. I remember spending weeks playing the series through the Nintendo beginings to the current N64 Version.
My real name is Mario which is kind of funny cuz through Elementary school when the Mario Series were popular I was made fun of like crazy. Now i just laugh it off but back then it sucked. I guess I have a soft spot for the fat plumber and his buddies but Mario will make a comeback. You'll see. Really.
I prefer the longsword. Its longer and slimmer edge is better for making faster attacks. Although the broadsword will do more damage, the longsword will do it faster. Thanks for trying, maybe next time you'll have something intelligent to say.
All that the Commission would need to do is make sure that countries don't discriminate against copyrighted works created in other member states, treating them with exactly the same protection as those created at 'home'
Would that not create the problem of people copywriting in the best possible country to gain the most protection because each other member would have to follow that law which the copyright was given?
