Yes, it's significant, but you are overlooking the most important point, which is that nearly half of the country still voted for the idiot. There's your problem.Yes, it's significant, but you are overlooking the most important point, which is that nearly half of the country still voted for the idiot. There's your problem.
No, the problem is that 99+% of the country voted for AN idiot. It was split nearly in half over which idiot.
I mean, look at the current polls: one says Kerry is up, another says Bush is up. Basically, it's still going to be a close vote. That's insane! But don't forget, this is the same country that not only elected, but re-elected Ronald Reagan. It's filled with people more concerned about The Gays than their own civil liberties, their own pocketbooks, their own personal safety!
I'm quite concerned about my civil liberties (Kerry WROTE large parts of the Patriot act), my pocketbook (why is tax & spend any better than borrow & spend), and my personal safety (I don't see Kerry doing much there either). I'm not thrilled with Bush, but so far, Kerry has failed to convince me that he's any better! Talk about a low bar to shoot for!
I don't know about Jon stewart's statement, since AFAIK, Kerry's never told the truth. I agree that he comes off as a dick when lying his own face off.
Even ASSuming that you do trust the Republicans, what happens if Hilary Clinton buys Diebold before 2008? Should we still trust them? And wasn't it a Republican who said "Trust, but verify"? Where did that party go?
So a CEO who is facing going in the red won't, say, "cook the books," decrease QA spending while shareholders are happy that they're now seeing profits, glossing over the decrease?
And the next CEO will decide NOT to cook the books because he doesn't want to go to jail like his predessesor did.
No, I wouldn't have done that! Depending on how stupid he WAS, I might have called him an 1d10t to his face (I did that once to a Windows 1d10t), but I wouldn't have conned him into wiping his system.
If I were a *nix newbie, the first thing I'd try is "help". "bash err - help not found". Man? Why would I type THAT? Maybe I'd guess info, but maybe not. I suppose a google search for "unix commands" might give me something useful, but I'm too lazy to try.
I'm still a beginner in Python, but in languages that ignore whitespace, incorrect indentation is the quickest way to turn me into a raving madman! A language that FORCES you to indent properly is GREAT!
The main problem with the Libertarians is they have a "hands-off" attitude towards business. Unfortunately, an uncontrollable giant corporation(s) can screw you almost as bad as Big Government.

At least Diebold's ATMs have an audit trail. Their voting machines don't!
Because they failed to get their guy in. Therefore the dead illegals were "statistically insignificant"

I heard that people who heard the debate over the radio swore that Nixon won.
To be fair, I don't think the Iranian hostage release had anything to do with Reagan's tough talk. It was just a final "fcuk you" to Carter.

So, our civilization is worse than the ones which condone killing women for the crime of not wearing a veil?

For most of the coutry, it doesn't matter. Unless your state's up for grabs, you might as well vote for who you WANT, not just the lesser evil.
And the next CEO will decide NOT to cook the books because he doesn't want to go to jail like his predessesor did.
I agree it's not a horse race. The top 2 are both jackasses!
Unless you live in a battleground state, there's no reason NOT to vote for Badnarik (assuming that you support him).
Why not? It works for over 90% of computer users.
The problem is, many people (myself included) read 0.9.1 as 0.91, which clearly IS higher than 0.10.
I could accept THAT limitation. I would NOT accept PPLTPW!
The whole idea of Tivo is to watch WHEN I WANT TO WATCH!!!!!!! If I can't do that, there is no reason to even HAVE a Tivo.
There IS no "limited window" with DirecTV! And introducing any such limit will, at best, cost them my PPV money, at worst cause me to cancel DTV!
Limited window? I recently watched a PPV movie that I recorded more than a month ago! Limited window, my ass!

Is /. now kuro5hin?? Nah, Kuro5hin is full of mindless elitist trolls who can't have a civil discussion. Hmm, OTOH, you may be right!
Bzzt! Wrong! The economy was starting to tank during Clinton's last days.
My "support" of Bush is lukewarm at best, but I'll answer your questions:
- Are Fundamental Christians
Nope
- Think they are Upper class
High middle class. Which is ignored by the Dems.
- Watch Fox News
I like it better than CNN!
- Believe the media
BWAHAHA!
As I said above, I'm not too thrilled with Bush, but I see absolutely NO reason to vote Kerry! Sorry, but "Bush sux" isn't a good enough reason!
