Yes, because I'm absolutely positive that David Gunn and Wayne Patterson both had abortions. Especially since Dr. David Gunn of Florida was murdered (see http://www.feminist.org/welcome/fmf_1993.html
Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favor of abortion (though I won't get into that argument). However, if you're going to make claims about some facts, you might want to check on them. Especially when trying to defend a site like the Nuremberg Files.
Really? Well, in the off chance that you're not joking, I provide you with this link, which has pictures of mroe than a few. Now, to my mind (looking at a few of the d10's that I have) the various faces do look the same, so I'm not sure where you're coming from.

Ex post facto laws (making laws retroactive) are illegal as per the Constitution.
Really? Well, then, I guess the Sonny Bono Copyright Extension Act is illegal. Of course, that doesn't stop it from being upheld, used, etc. Just thought I'd toss that little tidbit in for you.
Maybe if it didn't take 10 seconds to load on a 1Ghz Athlon, people wouldn't think it was slow. It's so slow sometimes, I go on and start other applications, and then Mozilla finally decides to pop up.
I'd check your configuration, then, since my machine (1.3Ghz Athlon) takes me less than 2 seconds without quickstart, and is non-visually measurable with it. Memory consumption has also dropped dramatically, going to 14M (from 28M in 0.9.8). In short, the performance is worlds better than even 0.9.8. Check your setup for other issues.
Ya know, I've got to reply. It's more than just backing up movies and data. I happened to tape my sister's wedding. Rather than produce a VHS of the final output, I put it on the computer, did my editing, and produced a video that some have said could have been done by a professional (I don't kid myself, my equipment was not even what was required to do something that well).
I guess my point is that not only would we want to back up movies, but some of us would like to make them, and do.
I wonder if these 12 states consider a defendant giving permission to recording phone calls or releasing IM logs to be a sort of self-incrimination, thus violating the 5th Amendment?
Note that the 5th Amendment only states that you are not required to testify against yourself, not that you are not allowed to do so.
As such, a defendant giving such permission is simply waving his 5th amendment rights. Which makes the laws make even more sense. After all, if you don't know you're being recorded, aren't you possibly being tricked into testifying against yourself, and thereby being forced to give up your 5th Amendment rights?
Umm... well, if your first sentence is true, wouldn't it be completely unnecessary to send them an e-mail protesting it? I mean, jeez, let the market forces run their course. Either that, or accept that the license isn't really that big a deal.
Well, jeez, isn't this part of how the market actually works? By having people who find an issue, raise a stink about it, and in so doing, get it fixed?
Pay attention: You (that's right, you, yourself) are a part of the market. If you find an issue that needs resolution, but do nothing to try and resolve it, you are letting the market fail to do it's job.
Wake up, and join the rest of the world in trying to fix that which is wrong.
Back on Topic, is Mars undergoing global warming? almost certainly it is. Just as earth is. The difference is that earth is suppose to be heading for ice age, if billions of years can be beleived.
Let me start by saying that I tend to agree with the rest of your post (maybe a few nit-picking details, but we seem to think more or less the same). But this point...
From what I understand, we are still coming out of the last ice age, not heading into another. Now, I may be wrong, but I'd appreciate being corrected on this one (as, I'm sure, would many of my past college professors who told me this).
Is the earth getting warmer? undoubtedly. But, if the earth is still coming out of the last ice age, shouldn't it be getting warmer? Just a thought.
I have to reply to this. There are distinct advantages to having software in a box, and the big one is that when your machine goes down, you can always reinstall from your original media, with your original serial numbers easily found (if needed). This is especially relevant for me, as I must now reinstall my W2K partition after it took a nosedive, and I'm still gathering up all the packages, serials, etc, two days later.
This is made all the more difficult by the lack of a permanent medium for these programs, as many of them were downloaded (and one of them was $250 for the privilege of downloading and using it). Something for which I definitely wish I had a box.
The hope that you have is no hope for me, unfortunately. You see, I've never been given the smallpox vaccine, nor can I be. The allergic reaction would kill me. I have no idea how many other people there are like me in this country and the world, just that I'm one of them.
Something almost amusing, though... Doctors will always ask if you're allergic to any medications, and I always respond "smallpox vaccine", and we both chuckle, because we know that I'm not likely to need it. Now, though... A story like this can cause genuine fear for me.

Considering that you can find adapters to convert USB to PS/2 all day long (and I'm using one here at work to convert my USB to PS/2 for NT4.0), I'd say yes, you were too sarcastic.
After having bombed 15 seperate countries, in less than the last 30 years, killing 3,000,000 civilians (yes civilians), Id say that *America* is a rogue nation run by terrorists and tyrants.
Would you mind giving me a list of those 15 countries? In the last 30 years, I can recall Vietnam, Libya, Iraq, and now Afghanistan. I know we invaded Grenada, but I don't know why, nor do I know if we bombed anything. I know we invaded Panama (something I, personally, do not agree with), but again, don't know if any bombs were done. So, would you please name these 15 countries?

Someone has probably already said this, but I'll say it here anyway: Start vim, and then type this: :help tutorialAnd it will take you through all the steps of using it.
This is one that I'm sure will cause me to get a visit from some friendly FLEAs, but I'll post it anyway.
A truly determined terrorist, wanting to bring down a plane, can do so far too easily. Consider these ideas:
Get a glass water bottle. Empty it. Fill with acid. With plane in flight, empty bottle near or on window or floor. With strong enough acid, you will open the plane sooner or later, exposing it to explosive decompression.
Continuing on this thread, once the bottle is empty, break it, and you've got an instant weapon with much the same effectiveness as a knife in most people's minds.
Get any old bottled water, and dissolve (if memory serves) phosphor in it. When in flight, empty water bottle on floor. As water dries, phosphor will burn.
There is a chemical (or element), but I can't remember the name of it right now, which will have an explosive reaction on contact with water. Again, get bottled water. Now, get this chemical/element, and put it into a capsule form. To get it on board the plane, claim it's heart medication, or antibiotic, or some such. Instant bomb is now available.
B5 really was good, though. It had the cohesive vision that all of the "new" Trek franchises lacked.
I think what you were trying to say is that B5 had a story to tell, while the latest Trek series have degenerated into a forehead of the week makes problem of the week which has to be solved by technology of the week.
Don't get me wrong, I love Trek, especially TOS. I just wish they'd get real stories going. Admit it, this is a space soap, and a soap needs an ongoing story. Without that, it'll be another dead week of time travel which didn't really happen. Well, I'll hope for better than that, anway.
I think Caldera's OpenLinux and KDE are two of the most underappreciated products to have come out of the open source community, and it's a shame.
I, too, tried it around 1.3 (or was it 2.3? I think it was 2.3, come to think of it). Prior to that, I'd been using Slackware 3.4 (still have most of those floppies at home), RedHat 4.2, 5.1, and Debian 2.1 (to current). I'll give it up for Caldera here: They have a beautiful looking product.
However, it felt wrong. I can't be any more explicit than that, because I don't know what (if anything) was wrong. But it felt wrong. Kind of like looking at a beautiful house, and thinking that the foundation was mislaid, or that the wiring is set to catch the house on fire. Something felt wrong about Caldera. I de-installed it, and haven't looked back since. In the end, though, their product is the best looking installer and booter that I've seen to date.
Thank you. This was not something I knew about, and it makes me feel somewhat better. I'm still considering emigrating, though. Just have no idea where I could go.
Sorry, but not necessarily. First, I'll admit I haven't looked at the code, and that this was probably somebody at RHAT being beyond stupid, and even (possibly) malicious. No matter how you look at it, it was wrong.
Now, having said that, consider that one of the benefits of a struct in C is that you are actually mapping out a chunk of memory. A very common use for this (when it comes to hardware) is to map the memory to be identical in eveyr respect to what the hardware expects for various functions.
The end result would be that if you and I were developing our own serial drivers, and using the memory mapping idea, we would have structs laid out identically for the serial port itself. We would even have similar names (assuming we both named the data members to reflect their purpose). As such, we could easily have headers which look 100% identical, except for variable names.
Again, though, I think RHAT was wrong in this regard, and needs to make amends. What those would be, I don't know, but they do.
Actually, parole was something mentioned in the article. You see, it seems that the federal justice system doesn't have a concept of parole. I may have to leave the country sometime soon, just to have any shred of freedom left. Anybody got any suggestions?
The *ONLY* way you can use the program is under the terms of the GPL.
Actually, even though I can't find the link on their website, that is not true. The GPL covers copying, redistribution, and modification, not/EM usage. As such, you can use the program without accepting the GPL.
Actually, why wouldn't you have that right? The developers put a program out there, and then placed conditions on how you could redistribute the program. They placed no such conditions on how you could use the program. I know of no legal precedent ruling one way or the other. Then again, I'm not a lawyer, so hardly the most knowledgeable about these things.
