Why don't you idiots understand that those people we are holding in Cuba are POWs? Do you think that we have them there for fun? During WWII, were there people like you calling for trials and the release diehard Nazi soldiers, or any german soldiers for that matter, before the war was over?
No, they are not POWs. If they were, you couldn't treat them like that. They allegedly are "illegal combatants". But many of them were not caught on a battlefield, but arrested from the street on in their homes.
So do you have any evidence global warming is part of a natural cycle? And what's with the "nature is out to get me" paranoia? And why is your solution to kill it first?
When are people like you going to accept the fact that you are screwing up earth, and that saying "if we don't do it, nature will" is a pretty dumb?
Quote the article: The overall carbon loss was consistent across environments as varied as grasslands, bogs, arable fields and woodland, suggesting the change is largely due to warming and not changes in land use. The average temperature across England and Wales has increased by 0.5C over the survey period. Earth is giving off more CO2 due to (global) warming, further increasing it.
So why was there a virus for Win64 (that only works on Win64, not a port from Win32) soon after the first public beta was out? Was that because of the huge market-share?
And before you say: GLORY - ask yourself: How much glory one would have if one would finally write the first virus for Mac OS X?
Conspiracy theory: MS is stopping all Mac viruses so people will think it has a low market-share.
First of all (from Wikipedia): On 29 August 2005, Gulfport took a direct hit from Hurricane Katrina, and much of Gulfport was flooded or destroyed, with a storm surge exceeding 20 feet (6.1 m) in some sections.
And: Near the mouth of the Mississippi? Gulfport is over 50 miles away from the Mississippi, Mobile over 100 - direct route over the Gulf. How would you get ships able to go on the Mississippi to it? Which was the point of the GP: you can move cargo more or less directly from seafaring ships to riverboats in plaes like New Orleans.
No. Traditionally, conservative means trying to conserve the Status Quo (or rather that of some time in the past, because everything was better in te past) by using as much government control as possible.
Oh, sorry, I thought we were talking about the Anandtech article, not something where somebody actually wanted to find out why MySQL was slow, as opposed to making the statement that Mac OS X was slow because MySQL was slow.
They've already shown that gcc doesn't produce apples-to-apples results, and now they've shown that it doesn't produce improving (or even consistent) results in newer versions.
Actually, you don't like the results because they have shown improving results in newer versions - for the G5.
But Steve Jobs said they were much much faster, before he caved in and switched architectures. You can't rewrite history!
And he hasn't said he was switching because x86 was faster. And Anand shows that they aren't really that much faster, and that the G5 actually has the faster FPU.
Yeah. Do you actually believe that is more than a lame excuse? thread creation time is included in the fork () benchmark of Lmbench - well, but so is a ton of other stuff, so don't pretend it's the same thing. Why does this guy believe they invented threads (aka light-weight processes) in the first place, so people could use processes to check how fast they are?

If it weren't for the heavy involvement of US corporations in the Oil for Food scam.
I wonder why they don't use some of the old nukes to destroy the old chem/bio weapons?
Funny that the US supported him through all this.

Volcanic releases are about 1% of the amount which is released by human activities. World total carbon dioxide emissions in 2002: 24,126,416 thousands of metric tons - pretty much exactly 100 times the maximum volcanic output per year.

Actually, most "old" Mac viruses stopped working with the introduction of System 7, early 1991.

Good point. So who are those "others selling online music are making money"?
So buy a 4 GB player the maker sells at a loss for $300, if that makes you feel less exploited.
So what does a two button mouse have to do with UNIX?
But if you actually want to know:
to eject the build in CD(+-R/W), to eject the disk named NO NAME.Wow, finaly someone who admits that Apple was right all along ;-)
Close. The FBI uses Macs themselves, most other law-enforcement goes to the Mounties.
There is still hope, no "insightfull"s - yet.
IIRC the error is that Khan recognized Chekov.

Ahh, but they didn't test OSX Server, and we don't know whether that ships with a version of MySQL that is fixed.

That's a good one. 'Cause in the test that supposedly tested threads, threads only account for minority.
