It's compulsory to go to the polling place and get your name crossed off the list. You can then hand in a blank ballot paper or draw a cartoon on it - nobody will care.
Open street map near my place is much more accurate than Google Maps. Mr Google has imagined many streets that don't exist. I know because I have been and looked...
IRV is a good candidate, but it has its own problems. The big flaw IIRC is that in some cases it is better to put your favorite candidate in the number 2 spot to increase his chances of winning.
I call bs on that one. I have voted IRV in Australia all my adult life and I have never heard a candidate say 'vote 2 for me!'.
"Ah yes, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness... Life? What 'right' to life has a man who is drowning in the Pacific? The ocean will not hearken to his cries. What 'right' to life has a man who must die to save his children? If he chooses to save his own life, does he do so as a matter of 'right'? If two men are starving and cannibalism is the only alternative to death, which man's right is 'unalienable'? And is it 'right'? As to liberty, the heroes who signed the great document pledged themselves to buy liberty with their lives. Liberty is never unalienable; it must be redeemed regularly with the blood of patriots or it always vanishes. Of all the so-called natural human rights that have ever been invented, liberty is least likely to be cheap and is never free of cost. The third 'right'?â"the 'pursuit of happiness'? It is indeed unalienable but it is not a right; it is simply a universal condition which tyrants cannot take away nor patriots restore.

Where do you get the idea that Abe thinks God will raise his son from the ashes?
When I was a kid I thought God was testing Abe in a different way - I thought that God was testing if Abe would stand firm and not do something he knew was wrong. I was horrified when I learned the truth. What an asshole god.
Who builds a city on top of a mountain? No food, and only 1 resource. Very slow growth, especially at the start and when you're not republic or democracy.
FLAC is lossy too. It may be the same as what's on the cd but it isn't the same as what sound hit the microphone and it may be different to what is on the masters.

If you are in Australia and have a garmin gps in your car you can go here.
There may be osm files for other gps and countries but I have never looked...

And make your own maps with open street map
The Governor General acts as the head of the Canadian Government.
No, the GG is the head of state, or representing the head of state (Queen) depending how you look at it.
The Prime Minister is the head of government.
I think you mean:
The X Window System was first to have remote applications, it didn't however have a remote desktop.
There are great Java apps for my 5800XM like Opera mini and Gmail.
I have read the books but how about a spoiler alert for those who haven't?
Um, Luther translated the bible into *German*.
The gospel of John is neither written by John or an eyewitness account.

Football is a contact sport where equipment is used to limit or protect against injuries in the ordinary course and scope of play.
Maybe in american football. In Rugby Union or League when I played the only protective equipment I had was a mouthguard.
So now we have a mess where the x86 platform is not perfect yet because MS refuses to do anything to make Windows work on other platforms
MS made NT work on alpha but not many used it so it died and I guess they don't want to waste all those resources again.
They have also made windows work on Itanium and x86-64.
I agree. I tried to get my wife interested in the show, but after the third or fourth "Frak You!", she said, "That's it, I'm out."
You mean she only lasted 36 seconds?
No point. I have posted about 5 bugs and nothing gets fixed.

When humans were first invented they probably didn't need pretexts. If you didn't like someone you just hit them over the head with a club...
Didn't one of the scanners work with just a photocopy of the fingerprint?

Who gets to define what a Christian is anyway? Half the Christians on the planet probably consider the other half aren't 'real christians'.
Not all Christians believe Jesus was the son of God either...
