Yeah, the summary is pretty misleading, since you need a paper clip, and field programmable gate array with RS232 interface or microcontroller. Yes, these are easy to obtain items, but the summary sounds like you can just use the paper clip. (And, I suppose feel the bits as electric shocks on your tongue or something.)
So the unconstitutional grasping of authority and the murder of 600,000 Americans is just fine with you? I suppose the deaths of over 3,000 American servicemen and 1 million Iraqis is above board, too. Yes, compared to liberty, socialism and murder is much more appealing, thanks for enlightening me. If I could avoid helping you, I would, but in fighting for liberty, one can't be selective on who can be free.
The Declaration of Independence, the founding document of the United States, preceding the Constitution, says "...all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Abraham Lincoln himself asserted this. "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." This is the law of the land. Clearly it was some time before people realized that the idea of slavery is incompatible with life and liberty for all men. (Even more time before that included women.)
This is the glacial pace of societal development. Slavery is repugnant, and would have ended naturally, as it did everywhere else in the world. Honestly, I believe the constitutional answer would have been to allow secession (which is not forbidden by the constitution), while outlawing slavery in the United States (upholding fundamental inalienable liberty).
It's anyone's guess what the events forward from that point would be. I do firmly believe there would no longer be slavery in 2008, and perhaps the US would be peacefully reunified, or remain peacefully separate. In either case, the US government would not have the overreaching power it has in the real world of today, and I think the world would have been better off for it.
Libertarians want liberty for you, too. You are free to make any sacrifices you wish, just don't try to force those sacrifices on me because that's your idea of liberty. You have the liberty to go fuck yourself.
Ron Paul has already answered this question. Check YouTube. He said that the Civil War was a senseless waste of life, and we should have found another way to end slavery. He would probably support the states' right of secession.
Ron Paul does not support returning to the gold standard. He supports your freedom to use gold as an alternative currency without being taxed or going to jail.
I am a very strong Ron Paul supporter, and I don't fault RP's campaign for the weak answers to these weak questions, but come on, Slashdot is a treasure trove of aggressive argument, and it lobs these softball pitches? Embarrassing.
Where are they getting the information about what tower you're connected to and how strong the signal is?
The phone knows the cell and tower ID, and the channel/frequency. Usually those frequencies are different in different directions from the tower. You can put your phone into field test mode (something on Howard Forums should tell you how) and see it for yourself. It's really neat. The trick is to learn where those tower IDs are and what direction it throws its different frequency signals.

the USA could have solarised and insulated huge swathes of its urban infrastructure. Instead, they went to go steal oil to drive their Escalades back and forth between their McMansions
Haha, I only wish we'd gotten to steal some oil for what we've invested. Maybe I wouldn't be paying $3.25.:)
I agree, we need breeder reactors like crazy. Let's home someone in power actually figures that out.
Did you receive a call but the caller did not leave a message and the Caller ID says "Unavailable"? Type the phone number in the box below and click "Get Details" to find out who is using this phone number.
Am I missing something? If there's no caller ID and the caller did not leave a message, exactly what number do I type in the box... mine???
Yes, as a born-and-raised Catholic, I agree with you that the church has screwed some things up pretty badly. There's been remarkable improvement in the last half-century or so, but not enough to undo 2000 years of mess (but enough that I haven't jumped ship). I'm glad someone understands that the fundamentalist/creationist dogma is just as bad as the rabidly anti-religious dogma. The you-can't-have-a-god crowd is just as intolerant as anyone else. As if my belief that I have a soul hurts them in some way. Maybe it does, if they believe they're just a sack of amino acids.
But man, this whole science vs. religion thing is so manufactured. Thanks, two-party-system!
You're talking to the wrong guy. I've already said I'm not a fundamentalist wacko. I can use my common sense (given to me by... umm.. God?) to figure those things out, and so can you, if you don't just want to bash religion as a whole. But of course it's easier not to have to think, whether you're a fundamentalist wacko, or an anti-religion wacko.
There is absolutely no evidence supporting any of the supernatural claims in any of the genesis myths of any of the worlds' religions. None.
If you choose not to be purposefully over-literal (ie. dense), Genesis does a good job. First there was light (energy), then stars, then simple life (aquatic, mostly), then solid ground, then complex life, then people. It's not a flawless recount of the last several billion years, but it was transcribed so many times, who knows if it started out perfect or not? And (making a preemptive argument here, so save myself time) if you complain that all of that didn't happen in six days (ie. too stupid to understand what a metaphor is), then there's no point talking to you.
The Catholic church, of all things, has accepted evolution.
The argument is between science and fundamentalist wackjobs (as usual). Normal sane religious folks as myself accept science like any other normal sane person.

But if you get a lot of money, you might have a lower chance of survival due to the lost delta-V. Although you could indeed throw the money away from you to build up a vector.

Just like the fairings on my motorcycle. We have insurance for stuff like that.
No, I'm voting for Paul, not Huckabee.

I think the point of the ruling is that it's NOT at Hormel's expense, since no one confuses junk mail with canned meat.
Plus, I don't know if it should really be considered a victory for the software industry that companies don't have to come up with creative names.
