Actually, theoretically, viruses aren't 'alive' because the definition says something about the way you replicate shouldn't be whatever viruses do, like using other organisms' cells or something.
Hopefully other major supporters(Google, Facebook, etc) will follow suit and get the word out how bad this piece of garbage is.
The thing is, every single person vaguely familiar with the Tech world already knows this.
It's everybody else that needs convincing, and I'm pretty sure neither Google nor Facebook, 2 Tech giants, are the right pick the counter this.
Too bad they only hire the best of the best. Even if they'd send 1.000 people into space, it'd still wouldn't be enough to have any statistically significant chance of being accepted.
1. The European Union (which is smaller than Europe btw) is the largest economy in the world with the highest GDP by lead of 12% so I guess not.
2. I'd be pretty surprised if a single guy built the Great Wall of China.
The point I'm make is the same as most here, the legalization of corruption through lobbying is obviously behind this. There's no doubt whoever is FOR this is in Hollywood's pockets.
Sure, nations fly aircraft along their borders, not halfway around the earth. And maybe Russia and the US have an official agreement but I'm pretty sure Iran never signed anything of the like so that's completely irrelevant. And it's not because CIA is 'officially' declared a civilian agency it actually really is. Calling the spy planes 'civilian' is a joke put on by the US, there's a reason why 'they' call it 'civilian', because if it was military (which it obviously is) they would be in the wrong. And I'm pretty sure that if the Russians would have flied an unidentified aircraft over Washington anywhere in October 1962, we wouldn't be having this conversation for very obvious reasons.
It does make a huge difference and I'm pretty sure a lot of people differentiate it, especially people living there, which [b]you[/b] might not think it is but is actually the most important kind of people when they're the subject of the discussion. I never said score determined one's belonging here nor did I ever imply that. I might have implied that your kind of comments were so uneducated you might want to stop posting them and that everyone would be grateful for it.
You're obviously confusing Iran with the rest of the middle east. I don't know if it's sad or hilarious how ignorant you are.
You might want to read this wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_technology_in_Iran
They not only invented Windmills, Algebra, Alcohol and many more, they are also very prominent today in modern science and are currently having a huge boom in Scientific research.
When you never get much more than a score of "1" here on/. on all of your comments, do you not realize this might not be the place you belong? At least try not to bring any 'input' in the future please, you have nothing of interest to bring to the table.
Actually under international law they are supposed to return any wreckage from an aircraft that crashes in their territory. That is during peace time. Also as long as the aircraft was not "military" and not armed it is not considered an act of war.
So basically, according to you, the US should return the wrecks of the 9/11 planes?
Do you realize now how stupid that makes you sound?
Look at the worlds' top 100 companies in the world, you haven't heard about most of them.
The biggest ones are the ones lurking in the background pulling the strings.
I usually dislike it when Hitler gets used to compare things but I'm going to do it anyway.
Hitler did it in the name of the Children as well, he said so himself.
You can do great evil and get away with it as long as you're doing it "to protect the innocent young".
But you do realize putting mayonnaise on french fries is completely normal, even more so than ketchup, in Belgium (or France for the matter) where french fries originated from? So it's you who's weird for not putting mayonnaise on it, not the other way around.
Except it's democracy that allowed this to happen.
As Churchill once wisely said:
"Democracy is the worst kind of ruling, except for all the other ones we've tried."
The point is, you didn't seem to understand my comment. Or did you just choose not to read "profit MARGIN" which, if I remember correctly, has nothing to do with the quality of the products.
I'm sure Apple isn't concerned one little bit about profits.
That's why they have the largest profit margin on their products in the entire IT world.
Oh wait....

My point is, it's like they'd announce they're recruiting James Bonds' or Presidents.

At least they don't print money to pay off their debts...

Even tho I'd rate your comment 5 for funny, it's only a myth that you can see the Great Wall of China from space.
Skynet actually already exists. It's a Belgian company.

My quote explains the why quite well in my opinion.

So if they were Afghan, Chinese or say Russian, they WOULD've returned the wreckage, right? Oh wait, no they wouldn't have.

Everyone in Europe puts ketchup on spaghetti afaik...

And why does the American people still tolerate this again? Surely, in a democracy, every law should be in its people's best interest, no?
