No way... and there's a big difference between drinking sometimes, and being an alchoholic. Well more than 50%? maybe 50%, but definatly less than 80%. And we really know that it's cells that cause cancer:-)
That's just the thing though, I know of many people who have been cured by eating their vegetables, and they didn't die. Doctors may tell people to eat right, but often they don't themselves. In fact, the average lifetime for a doctor is 58, almost 20 years lower than the average person. Not only are they the most informed about healthcare, but doctors don't usually have the problem of not being able to pay for perscription drugs, like other seniors.
Yes, but there wouldn't be anything wrong with eating more healthily anyway. Thinking that Friday the 13th is a bad omen would cause you to mentally unstable, or scared. Thinking the world is flat, well that's just plain stupid.
Yeah, that's the problem, nobody really understands, and those who claim to understand all disagree with each other. m-w.com has about 2 pages of definition on the word "think" and about 20 different meanings.
Cancer is one of the medical institutions major source of income, if it were cured, what would we do with all the stupid research centers? Many people think that cancer can be cured by using good food, lots of greens, no meat, etc. But really nobody considers this because it doesn't make money.
No, when stepping on a dogs tail, more has to do with attitude, than trained behavior, or instincs... Which is why some dogs bite you, some growl, and some just sit there. Besides dogs, many gorrilas have been taught to use sign language, and this probably requires thinking. IF you would go that far, to say it isn't thinking, but input-output, what is thinking, and do humans really think either?
Of course animals think.. You don't think dogs were actually born with the instinct to SIT do you? And even though many animal behaviourists consider this "learned behaivior", they have to think to learn something. Sorry about my spelling...
HUH? the 10 year old kids can haul around any 17" crt! Get in shape dude! Seriously, maybe you should try those diet pills I get in my email... I could forward if you're interested.

Right, so they give people over 6-month old software, and then they use it for years after that without updating. What they won't like is that their critical application wont run on kde 2.2 when kde4 is the standard.. Definatly a bad choice to use old junk.
I'd say that Linux is of course Enemy #1, but it has been for years, at least back to 1998. And really Ballmer could fix this whole linux "threat", but then he'd accomplish basically what customers want anyway.
And when you think about posting on slashdot, please dont, and save us the agony. Seriously, this guy didn't get moderated up, and of course he wouldn't, so you're the one who made this a "racial" issue.
I started using mandrake back in 99, with version 6.1. It was a lot more power-user friendly than 7.0, and really they've automated much more since then. I've switched to a "real" distibution (no offence guys), and wouldn't go back even if they did come out with a good release.
Depending, the chances you'll have life in an envirenment with Liquid water are extremely high, and according to the evolutionary theory, almost impossible to not have life. There was Ice supposedly found on one of Jupiter's moons a while back (somewhere on slashdot), but it's unlikely there's any life there do to extreme temperatures. Of course, mars is more moderate.
Well, in my personal experience, 1.2a was much more unstable than m18, but then its a lot faster and more feature rich too. I'm not really upset with Mozilla's performance, just pointing out something.
except that's not how these warranties work. They simply ship you a new drive, and it's almost never the same model you had to begin with. Generally by the time a drive goes out, they can just give you one that they overproduced that isn't selling. So really, it isn't going to help these companies ecconomically very much at all.
They're releasing slower now, a lot slower. It's just more people care about it. Back in the milestone days you'd get a new release every month or so, now it's about every 2-3 months.
If they really were more reliable, (and granted, I do think they are, at least segate), the companies wouldn't have to spend as much for warranty's so they wouldn't be loosing any money. This is truely sad, seems like every drive I get goes out before 3 years is up, and always last just over a year.
I'd fix their website, and I'm sure a bunch of other people would just being kind... but nobody trusts anyone in the internet world. It's not like their site is that complex either, truely sad.
I've never encountered a website that didn't look good at 1024x768, in fact usually I run into more junk that was designed for 640x480, which looks terrible on 1024x768. Hey, there's always a bigger monitor..

Thousands of geeks were seen scratching their heads, seemingly in deep thought, almost perplexed. What is this supposed to mean anyway??

For instance, Microsoft has had Privilege Elevation scince the beginning of networking!
Good idea! that way you have no hope of getting a reply back! Man, you should give business advice too.
