  1. Re:Wow I feel sad for the future on Bush, Kerry, and Nader Respond to Youth Voter Questions · · Score: 1

    I'm more of a believer in each person making up their own mind. I know that the majority of people don't want to make up their minds and like to be told what to do, but they need to read the Bible and make up their minds on what they believe. That is one good thing about denominations, common beliefs and interpretation. But I draw the line at "there's only one way to interpret and thats *my* way." A lot of denominations do this and it drives me nuts!

    Why can't people just make up their own minds and agree to disagree on the non-important things (can you lose your salvation, what makes someone "saved"......etc)

    Yet the Catechism is still based on a certain interpretation of Scripture.

    There is also a lot of politics and legalism in every denomination because of humans taking things in their own hands. For example, I think John Wesley would have a fit with the way the Methodist church is now and there are alot of other examples like this. Its as if the people forgot God (just like Israel in the Old Testament).

    I completely agree with you. But, I ask what about the difference in interpretation of Scripture? Catholics even have a completely different canon from Protestants. Those fundamental things are what divides Christians.

    Then what would you like to see that Apple makes?

    I personally would love OS X for pc.

    Now I have something else to look forward to when I get my PowerBook.

    Now my question is is why do people slam Apple for creating products that only work with their products? No one slams Microsoft for creating software that only works with their products. Why is this?

  8. Re:OS X vs. Windows on Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" Preview at WWDC · · Score: 1

    I've seen these articles. When were these exploits found and when were the patches released?

  9. OS X vs. Windows on Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" Preview at WWDC · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Apple has had a chance to updates its OS every year because they haven't had to worry about security in their OS. I'm sure Microsoft could have done the same thing, if they had a secure OS. I honestly won't mind paying for this updates (If I have to I will but I'm getting my iBook close to when Tiger will be released).

    How could the think about getting other people out when the machines were attacking? Remember Lock needed all the ships there so no one could even worry about getting people out of the matrix.

    You say you balk at the ending because it doesn't meet your expectations.

    I just got back from the movie and I am thoroughly satisfied. The machines and humans find a way to peacefully coexist. The 1% get their wish about getting out and the machines get their batteries. What more can you ask for?

    Not exactly since you pay a fee for cable (unless you have rabbit ears). Radio is free.

  14. Re:What's the Point?? on TiVo For Radio? · · Score: 1

    TV advertising and Radio advertising are different. TV is more of a see it and then you want it type thing. Radio is more of a while i'm out i could get this, or stop by and get free this while getting an impression at that store.

    My dad works in sales in radio and he's a friggin genius on this stuff. I'm wondering what he's gonna say about this.

  15. Re:What's the Point?? on TiVo For Radio? · · Score: 1

    I understand that, but the whole point in Radio isn't just music. Sales and ads are what drives Radio, on location remotes and everything can get people to places to look at a promotion and help out a business.

    What this will do is let people skip ads and the stations will lose revenue and bad stuff could happen.

    I can see both sides of this but I mostly think it could be bad for radio in the long run.
