1. You posted anonymously. This pretty much makes you afraid of being called out directly in the case of you being wrong.
2. You are completely wrong about the virus' existence. You have 1 book, while there are thousands of books and millions of changed lives (after medications became available to third world countries) on the opposing side.
You fail miserably, yet blindly persist with no objectivity. Even the Irish aren't that foolish. I'm 4th generation or so thinly diluted Irish, and third generation "don't give a fuck", so I am pretty sure of my cultural stance.
You are thinking about it kind of wrong. At the physical layer, one bit. At the software layer, it can and maybe will be a symbol or other compression done by ASICs. The difficulty with compression is that more data comes up missing per bad sector/bit of media.
I am speaking in general terms because I am very removed from industry specific knowledge of hard drives.
I read a bunch of replies, yet none of them seem to address the biggest issue with electric cars: they are impractical, and will never be efficient. The electricity must be generated at a pollution gain, and energy loss. The electricity must be stored, again at a loss. The energy is a third-hand energy. Generated, stored, and used. Gasoline at least cuts out the middle man, by allowing fairly direct use of the energy of burned fuel.
The best pursuit out there is that of a hydrogen powered vehicle, that runs with water as it's fuel. The hydrogen could be produced on the fly, with small quantities stored.
Those were races. D&D Basic had the four basic classes. The role playing aspect was up to the DM and the players. If the DM wanted it to be super basic, then there would be few options, and the only real workable combat would be using the weapon in hand. A more creative group can use coercion, negotiation, bluffing,and if in combat, their surroundings to complete any encounter.
The scope of what can be done in the game goes way beyond that, but I will stop there.
There's never been a true communist state. The closest you get is Socialism. It, like Communism, FAILS due to simple human greed and power lust. I'll take a flawed pseudo-Capitalist republic of individual states over that crap or THIS crap any day. Our founding fathers had the framework largely correct, IMO.
Damned near EVERY media outlet that isn't fox and what, 3 others? Don't even try to say that there are non-left leaning outlets owned by the handful of major media conglomerates, all of which are very liberal in nature.
You really need to go buy a clue. You are so completely polar wrong. Reagan bolstered capitalism. Obama does the opposite. Reagan Deregulated. Obama wants huge government and regulations. I could go into specifics, but why bother. Obama gangsta leans left.
You didn't learn the government was appointed by evil dictators from C-64. You are taking his statements to a completely unrelated illogical conclusion. You should learn more about that which you speak of, before making inflammatory statements.
8 times. 3.5 years. That's more than every 6 months. It seems to me that they are pretty aggressive, considering the minimal contact with the outside world it has.
My car (2000 Audi S4) is modded heavily. The only thing the manufacturer does about it is deny any warranty.
If you physically own the hardware, you should be allowed any use or modification of it. Anything else would imply that you are renting it.
Your numbers do not reflect university costs near me. University of Louisville, U of K, IU, all of them are more than $15K per year for just tuition. Unless you are "Obama" middle class (upper limit of 250K per yr), you are not paying your own way through college as an average white male working fast food/warehouse work.
College is cheap if YOU are getting subsidized. My 1st yr English teacher (a 1st year part time professor and grad student), made about 35K with tuition, housing, etc benefits. Teachers get a lot of time off work, to boot.
I still play Age of Mythology often. That's a lot more than 2 or 3 years. It will continue to be playable also. You can join me buy purchasing the game for under $20 U.S.....
This is when I remind you that our voting system is becoming electronic. This is hackable, and otherwise able to be manipulated, albeit illegally. I would also remind you that we elect the president via the -electoral college-, which could be corrupted in different ways.
We were a representative democracy. What we are becoming is quite different.
Win 7 will -operate- with 1 GB RAM.... sure. The difference between 1,2, and 4 GB is in number of open apps and speed of opening/navigation. Windows prefetching will not perform well on a 1GB system, and may actually disable itself, as will most of the efficient caching systems that allow multiple windows to run fairly fluidly. Firefox without prefetch can take 10 seconds to open. With prefetch it is near instantaneous. Corporate users are real negative towards IT departments that do costly upgrades, with no real improvement in performance or usability.
Memory is cheap, and is the single most performance improving/reducing hardware choice for a corporate desktop at this time.
"This is not exactly a new idea; it's fundamental to US legislation, beginning with the US Constitution: the powers granted to the government are whitelisted, while the powers reserved by the people have no such limitations."
This is one of the least observed mandates from the constitution writers for the last 20 or more years. Our federal government has far exceeded it's original scope of power and authority. It's time for a real and substantial change in the OTHER direction.
Indisputable??? Wiating in line for an MRI in Canada? There's one piece that opens dispute. Talking like an authority doesn't make you one.
If you don't trust our congressmen, then why would you want them further controlling our health system?

Health Care Reform

· Score: 1
If healthcare is run by the government, you will eventually have a board, like the one that exists now, that makes "recommendations" on what treatments will be used for what. The issue here is that the recommendation becomes the only treatment option. With costs being a consideration, what happens when you get a chronic disease that is expensive to treat? There is no recommended treatment, and the problem is solved, even if there is a valid treatment. Insurance companies already try this tactic now. It will get much worse, I predict, when everyone has to be insured.
I disapprove of the bill because it does not fix tort problems, and has too many earmarks added, and WAY too many pages.
I have a gut feeling that tells me that this is a bad idea. The fact that congress and Obama have tried every single trick including violating their own campaign promises about transparency just makes me feel that gut feeling is valid.

2. You are completely wrong about the virus' existence. You have 1 book, while there are thousands of books and millions of changed lives (after medications became available to third world countries) on the opposing side.

Electric and hybrids are a gimmick, and costly.

Dude..... You are SO right. BTW It's not a moral issue, but a LEGAL one. This makes you have the high and the legal ground.

BAM!!!

Last thing first:
They will NEVER get rid of copyright laws. NEVER.
Secondly, if I BUY something, I want to own it. I do not want to buy a game, then have it inaccessible a year later due to "lack of demand".
Third...... Really..... Gaming using this much bandwidth at a national level? With sub-console quality graphics?
Lastly, even this model is able to be defeated. There are rogue WoW servers running right now. Code gets leaked.
The entire project seems to reek of nasty and fail.
Your assertion about the ground wire is weak. Unless the ground wire was embedded with a processor, and had ability to network.
With processing and networking, all you need is some type of tiny audio/video device.....
15 years is an optimistic interval in my opinion. This is based on current tech that I am aware of.
In the words of the immortal Billy Mays:
BAM!!!
Citations needed. Or better yet, I have some unfounded accusations of my own:
All liberals are socialists, and Obama is actually a foreign national (Kenya) trying to ruin our country.
This is when I remind you that our voting system is becoming electronic. This is hackable, and otherwise able to be manipulated, albeit illegally. I would also remind you that we elect the president via the -electoral college-, which could be corrupted in different ways.
We were a representative democracy. What we are becoming is quite different.
Despite the harsh sarcasm, you have an extremely valid, thinly veiled, point. In my opinion, posting as AC was not needed.
I have to admit, also, that I have never known anyone who "through" a party.

TL;DR version- You are wrong.
