Yes, the wifi features for MP3 players, small little devices with a bloated, wasteful wireless protocol, making USB/Firewire completely unnecessary. Just what I want, a device to wireless sync to my computer before I leave the house so that I'll have my newest music and when I finally get where I want to be and turn it on, I realize(BATTERY DEPLETED. SHUTTING DOWN.)
Wait, I don't get the vegan reference. Yeah, most vegans would eat meat instead of die of starvation(Where in the world does that happen currently ?!?!?!). But there's no conflict, if you eat meat you didn't score a victory of an animal anywhere, even if you went hunting, there's no conflict, no victory. Conflict has risk, hunting does not(I've been hunting for over 10 years, by the way).
It really sounds like a cheap way to make a stike at veganism, which is about animals suffering, and has nothing to do with conflict. In fact, veganism brings in conflict, small minded people who just don't get it, challenging the way people have been thinking for a long time(meat == healthy and you need it for protein, the first mostly false, the second completely false).
And pure veganism is unworkable, so is pacificism, but does that mean the opposite is true? Not at all. Being purely conflict based would really damage you, if everything had to be a conflict, "Are you going to eat?" "NEVER AGAIN NOW! MWA-HA-HA!" you'd say. How does that work? Pure anything doesn't work, ever. You're just taking an extreme, making it extreme to the point it can't work, and going from there.
But yeah, in this day and age, you can get really close to pure veganism, when was the last time it was eat or die for you? Last week? Last year? Ever? It's way over a week before you die.
It's funny, but it's true. I hate when restaurants are, "We're out of avocado" or whatever. There's a grocery store less than a mile from here, can you get the manager off his ass to go get some real quick? Or better yet, when there's only two left and deliveries are in 2 days.
Bah, it's close to the same. We have to pay for everything else. Want to use the road that your taxes paid for? Sure thing, we call it a "toll" road, so pay up again. Want to have a swim at the public pool(not really, no, but...) $2 adult, $1 kids, oh, and we'll be raising property taxes because the pool needs more maintenance anyways.
Well, it's not vandalized if it's fixed, now is it?
You resist vandalism when you actively protect and clean it up afterwards, you don't care when you do nothing(graffiti in the slums vs. graffiti downtown in a lot of cities is an example).
If you're resisting an invasion, they may make a few wins but you clean it up after them, kick them out and all that.
Wiggum: We'll track down Simpson with your vehicles anti-theft system. System: Car gone! Car gone! Wiggum: Yeah, we know that. Where has it gone to? System: Cargon! Cargon! Cargon!
Because you could be causing harm. It's easy to snoop once you're on the network. Of course, if it's unprotected, you either don't care or don't know.
To get away from the lawn idea, let's talk about cars. If I leave my car unlocked, not a good practice but something easy to do and to not think about, does that mean anyone can come in and sit? It'd be quite disheartening. Most people think their car is secure and often has data about them (papers, receipts, etc). But you could forget to lock it, for any number of reasons. That doesn't mean that the world has access. The same goes for your briefcase, is it locked? No? I'm gonna rifle through it for awhile then.
Of course, wifi does broadcast, but that's a bad analogy. It doesn't get in the way of other people, unlike physical property(car blocking the lane, etc..). In fact, no one is complaining about cell signals, which are broadcast like wifi. Does this mean that, because it is jutting out and striking me, so to speak, that I should be privy to your conversation(after all, your voice on this side isn't encrypted at all).
But it's a hard debate, and I don't think anything will sum up the debate very well. But I do believe you should stay on your own property, be the door locked or unlocked, the door closed or open, unless someone explicity says it's ok.
But of course, it's becoming redundant. Starbucks has Wifi for a nominal fee, kinkos is the same network, cell phones are getting net service via bluetooth, so even out where there's no wifi, let alone an unprotected one, you can still get internet if you have the right phone and the know-how.
Mind you, I probably wouldn't mind hopping onto someone's network to check my email or anything, but I'm not going to try and defend it as "they invited me in!"
I hate to advertise, but I love my zboard. Of course, I've got a real keyboard underneath for MMO's that req chat too. But yeah, I agree completely, the PS2 controller is just awful.
What is Fantasy? Magic, dragons, elves, enchanted items, dungeons, etc.... Sure, it's always tweaked to hell, but it's the same familiar elements each time.
What is SciFi? Spaceships? No, not always, look at Fallen Earth. Lasers? Not necessairily. Space Travel? Could be.
There's no common elements, there can be, and normally are, but not many. And people are more defined in the Star Trek/Star Wars/Stargate worlds, "generic" scifi could be anything, and by generic I mean common elements, it'll be a custom, new world.
It has to be familiar, or you've lost a good portion of players already, and scifi just doesn't have much of that. Star Wars? I'll pass, it's mildly interesting(am I the only slashdotter who doesn't care much at all for the whole star wars story, even the first 3 were bleh). I like Star Trek, and look forward to the game, but I doubt it'll hold my interest, it's always been about the story, and the game looks more about the consoles/technology. Stargate? Well, it's getting an MMO too, but, um, er, I'll pass. I really enjoy Atlantis(not the second season, third is good so far) but as a game? maybe, as an MMO? How about not?
I can tell you what I like, Fading Suns, but it's an RPG, not a comp game(although I think they had a few). Broken down, "wow-you-can-travel-through-space-even-if-just-bar ely-wowza" kinda stuff, everything is run down, low-tech trying to keep hi-tech going. That's my kind of SciFi.
But fantasy is accessible to all, easy to understand, and pretty well defined. Just try releasing a fantasy game without magic, enchanted items, sure, but no magic. It won't work either.
Aye, I'm using my projector at home ($899) with screen goo, and I've got a 126" HDTV, for $899. Need curtains though, but I'd need those without. Haven't hooked my computer up to it yet, mostly for playstation and TV/DVDs. Waaaaay cheaper than many of the alternatives out there, and for 120". =) (I have tall ceilings, heh)
Heh, thanks, but I can live without funny if they could just stop it! That's why the subscription model doesn't work, pay extra to see dupes earlier! Yeah....
And of course, every backslash looks like a repeat, need to click those off.:)
Fable was a cool, fun, good looking game. It was just, well, short. I mean, one sitting to finish it. I don't think I even hit 10 horus, whereas I'm almost halfway done with Suikoden 6 and at about 45 hours(I goof off a lot in that game).
But Fable was fun, I just didn't want to repeat it b/c of the "Hero Academy" BS, which should be shortened, eliminated, or given a skip-thru, at some point, it's too obvious and too much of the same things.
Is Wikipedia the definitive source for advice concerning law, or should you seek a lawyer?

That is the converse search to vegetarian cancer by the way.:) All the bad health effects of red meat, if your veg you don't eat any. But I think cutting back and eating more chicken and fish(pref. ocean and wild, but doesn't have to be) and increasing your fiber will help.
A lot of vegetarians are smokers, very few do it for health. Not only do they smoke weed but tobacco as well. They're not in it for the health they're in it for animal blah blah blah. You have to consider the effects of studies not done on vegetarians, but done on red meat studies that don't mention or include vegetarians, the benefits are there.
I don't believe in giving up, but a small change or two could help out a lot. But I think reduction not elimination is a better philosophy(although, for other reasons, I am vegetarian. Namely, a burger knocks me out for about 2 hours of sleep/can't move, but that's unrelated to the rest, and for that reason, I have to eliminate not reduce).
Wow, I love how defensive people get when they think you're attacking their diet.
Ok, hold on, let me search on why meat is healthy, and then remove the propoganda, and then what will you eat?:)
No, if you want to be healthier, cut down on red meat, more fiber(whole fruit and whole veggies, not juice). Check out the other postnig, check out Google Scholar search. So defensive, and I think much of the health benefit can be translated to a meat eating diet, I'm not trying to convert, I'm just saying you can be healthier.
I love how no one messed with the diabetes, alzheimers, etc.. Everything is under our control, unless it threatens what we're used to eating in any significant way.
There's many more, perhaps 90% is over the top, but there is much to go on about a reduced risk of cancer. I was hoping you would look more toward the sources listed on the pages, not the pages themselves.
"A vegetarian lifestyle of long duration (> or = 20 y) was associated with decreased overall and cancer mortality. Other determinants of decreased cause- specific mortality were physical activity, body weight, and strictness of adherence to the life-style. The relationship between a vegetarian and fiber-rich diet and a decreased risk for colon cancer has been reported in many studies. In this study, the influence of other factors such as health-conscious behavior and a healthy lifestyle seem to indicate partly stronger effects than nutrition itself. This may explain the generally better health of moderate vegetarians. " http://intl.ajcn.org/cgi/content/abstract/59/5/114 3S
"Other analyses showed that non-meat-eaters had only half the risk of meat eaters of requiring an emergency appendectomy, and that vegans in Britain may be at risk for iodine deficiency. Thus, the health of vegetarians in this study is generally good and compares favorably with that of the nonvegetarian control subjects." http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/abstract/70/3/525S
No, not everything is "you-must-be-vegetarian" it's more, less red meat(don't have to eliminate) and give soy milk a try. I love to see how defensive people get when you (don't actually) challenge their diet.:)
Because evolution isn't always about genes. It's also about eliminating other weaker elements from the system.
Obesity is a warning sign, as is diabetes, that this person is not fit for breeding(this is not PC at all, lol). It's a very positive element. Everyone wants to look good, but do you want the species to look good, and be incredibly lazy, eventually to the point of not even bothering to breed anymore.
Fat is good b/c of the body's resistance to starvation, obesity is good b/c it helps "thin the herd" so to speak(although, in practice, not really, because the US would be 1/4 the population in about 200 years, heh).
Of course, everything these days is viewed in the light of making a person look better and better, rather than being healthier and healthier. There is a cure to obesity. Burn off more calories than you take in. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented by simple exercise and watching what you eat.
We're finding out the same thing for alzheimer's, it's about what you eat during the course of your life, and how active you keep your brain(exercising it, effectively). There's a reason vegetarian's are 90% less likely to develop any type of cancer than non-vegetarians.
Anything can be genetically predisposed, but that's not an excuse, it's something you have to watch out for. Someone once told me, "I'm obese, it's glandular, and totally my fault" because, no matter how predisposed you are, there's a simple formular, burn off more than you eat and you will lose weight(that person has lost 80lbs so far, take that glandular!)
"Finally, by Wednesday afternoon, the Wikipedia entry about Lay said that he was pronounced dead at an Aspen, Colo., hospital and had died of a heart attack, citing news sources."
So, while it was incorrect minute to minute(meaning, for live news, you should be reading... wait for it... news sources?! and not encyclopedias?!! wtf!?) in the end it was updated with citations and sources, and ended up better, thereby achieving what it set out to do, while, the "blogging" aspect of wikipedia, even though it is not a blog, has failed.
I really don't understand the article, it says a lot of stuff, and correctly, but it's stringed together in such a way and it makes incorrect presumptions, that it reaches an invalid conclusion.
Oh wait! I get it, it's a parody of a real wikipedia article, which some of them end up stringed together in terrible ways and reaches bad conclusions. But unlike wikipedia, this article probably won't be updated, with sources and citations.
Wow, who woulda thought that wikipedia is a living, evolving, growing encyclopedia, not CNN. Poor guy, what a mistake to make!
(Note, I've never contributed to wikipedia, and never really thought about it, there's enough crazy people doing it already. Nor do I think wikipedia is the end-all-be-all, but this article is just drivel, I mean come on).
But superman wasn't raised in super high gravity! Only born in it.
