Maybe you would have gotten more viruses if you hadn't been using it. You'll never know since you had it running the whole time.
That's the same logic that keeps me from throwing away my anti-vampire rock. Ever since I've had it I haven't seen a single vampire so that proves it must work.
"The hook and loop fastener was invented in 1948 by Georges de Mestral, a Swiss engineer. The idea came to him after he took a close look at the Burdock seeds which kept sticking to his clothes and his dog's fur on their daily walk in the Alps. De Mestral named his invention "VELCRO" after the French words velours, meaning 'velvet', and crochet, meaning 'hook'. Today Beige-a is the leading exporter of velcro in the world."
Not to mention all that debris and junk that will no doubt be floating around inside this structure.
Makes me wonder where the spinning space stations that they promised us 40 years ago are. I guess in the same place all the flying cars and robot maids are.
Then the obvious answer to both is that we need to work on bringing that low-end up to somewhere more reasonable. Such that a basic American education (eventually internationally) includes that sort of basic common sense.
The government very clearly saw what happens when you have a well educated youth during the 60's. The fact that public education has been on the decline since those days is no accident. It is much easier to control a populace which is fat, dumb and happy. They got the first two down, now they just need to figure out the happy part and their job is complete.
...Lay caused a lot of problems for the GOP. The economic crisis that he touched off, as well as his ties to the current administration, have caused a lot of heartburn for a party trying to maintain their controlling position.
Which is why they sent a psychic into his dreams to assassinate him, it only looks like a natural death.
The only thing that will break the cycle of everyone adapting MS's newest OS is the ability to effortlessly run Windows apps on Linux, or Mac.
I agree with everything you said except for that last one. Trying to adapt to run Windows programs is what killed OS/2, which at the time was a much better OS than Win3.1 (what wasn't?). A true object oriented, multi-tasking, 32-bit operating system that ran circles around Windows, except of course in running Windows apps. Why should anyone even bother to develop for another OS if any new one will just try to run Windows apps as well as Windows? If that's what you want well, then just get Windows!
...those e-mail viruses that send.COM programs to trick people into thinking it's a.com Web site... got to love Microsoft, eh?
Not that I care for Microsoft but you can't blame them, they had the.com extension years before the web was a gleam in anyone's eye. You should blame the person that came up with the.com domain while knowing full well it could eventually be a problem. I guess we can be thankful a.exe domain wasn't created.
The dangers of robots are worse than you think, just watch this PSA. And remember, when they grab you with those metal claws you can't break free cause they're made of metal, and they're very strong.
Anyway, the point is that even if this meteor was "substantially bigger" than the 200-pound record holder, I find it extremely hard to believe that it would do even a miniscule fraction of the what the A-bomb did.
It probably wouldn't be so hard to believe if it hit downtown Manhattan.
The evidence is flawed as it is based on the belief that egaltiarianism is scientifically true. Negroes score a full standard deviation lower than other races on standard intelligence measuring tests. Their large numbers, and recent inclusion in such statistics, greatly skews literacy statistics. Negroes, no matter what their country of origin, have abysmal literacy rates. In 1960, the United States was approximately 96% white. Today, it is less than 70%, and will be less than 50% by 2050.
That's very interesting.
I have a question for you, what do you use to get the soot stains out of your sheets after a night of cross burning? Is it just regular bleach or does stain remover help?
Correcty me if I'm wrong, but providing a link to a bitTorrent client doesn't really have anything to do with the article.
Okay I'll correcty you, it's called irony and it does have to do with the article. It illustrates the futility of the ongoing efforts of the RIAA to shut down file sharing by showing that options have actually increased which is the opposite of their intended results.
Lighten up a bit and laugh, trust me it will feel good.
I could have sworn I read somewhere that the PS3 was delayed until 2007. Am I remembering incorrectly?
I hope not because for some reason the release of UT2k7 is set to coincide with the release of the PS3. This includes the PC version, which is the only one I'm interested in.
I know this has been discussed before but I really don't like how the industry seems to be tied more and more to consoles these days. The only console game that has held my interest in the past 6 years has been Katamari. The only console I would even consider buying in the future is the Revolution due to it's controller but I'm still going to wait a few months after it's release to see if even that is worth it.

"The fee helps offset the cost of downloading from the servers."
They could just put it up on bittorrent and it would't cost them a dime. Of course that would require common sense.

I question that we would necessarily have developed velcro...
Once again, Velcro was not developed by NASA.

A quote from Asimov on the subject:
"The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not Eureka! (I found it!) but 'That's funny...'"
Is that what you where remembering?
Of course there is also John Lennon's quote, "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.", which seems to apply.

Now if only we could outlaw thinking then the next elections should be a steal for the republicans.
No need to outlaw thinking, it has already been voluntarily surrendered.
