Jesus mentioned hell, but the word he used was the name of the ever smouldering rubbish tip outside the city walls. It's entirely possible to conclude that what he mean was that people found to be unrightious before the LORD are simply discarded and cease to be.
3) Bin laden is playing alonger term game where he counted on a violent reaction that would prove to moderate muslims that yes, America really IS the great satan. He believes that eventually his brand of radical militant fundamentalism will grow in strength to the point that America is forced to withdraw from the middle east. After all, it worked in Vietnam.
Quite right. Today's creative military solutions involve shooting civilians while rocking out to death metal music piped in from the nearest tank. It's a creative approach to reducing levels of combat related stress by making GI's think they're playing a shoot 'em up.
You've got UKIP wrong, they are pro-big business, and the reason they hate the EU is because of its socialist tendencies, and its advancement of human rights. It always amazes me that a party can get people elected on a platform of "These people want to give you voters more human rights, and to stop your govenment and employers abusing you! We will bring an end to this bid for freedom!"
I've never heard such nonsense. Windows 3x owed a certain amount to OS2, but windows NT is a ripped off version of OpenVMS. Besides, what's wrong with ripping stuff off? Nothing of any serious complexity is developed in isolation, or is truly original. You might as well slag off linus for just ripping off UNIX.
As a former Catholic myself, I'm just saying that Catholicism tends to be quite a moderate form of Christianity in comparison to other Christian traditions. It's far too tied up in ancient and meaningless traditions and rituals to be described as fundamentalist.
We have several advantages in the UK like consumer protection law and the data protection act. Mostly, if we report suspected card fraud promptly the CC provider will pay you back, and if they won't then the delivery address would be obtainable via a data protection act enquiry. Americans don't have that kind of protection, which they really need. I spotted a story (I think it was Wired) where some information broker SOLD personal information to identity theives. I don't think that kind of information trading is allowed in the UK and the rest of the EU without explicit customer authorisation. What we REALLY need is a law which makes selling personal information totally illegal, thus rendering databases of email addresses, SS numbers, credit details, purchasing habits etc, worthless,
For the past year or so all new credit/debit cards in the UK have been using a new chip and PIN system to reduce card fraud. Instead of signing a receipt you simply put your card in a reader and enter your PIN which is then verified by the microchip embedded into the card.
Seems fine until you get the silly people in stores not hiding the keypad as people look over their shoulder, or even worse, mouthing or even saying their PIN out loud!!
Some time next year, I believe, the credit card companies will make stores liable for credit card fraud where the signature has been used to verify identity.
According to AMD, no. IIRC they said recently that dual core Opterons will be inline, price wise, with the top end Opterons currently available, while offering much improved performance.
I think not. Anyone running Oracle on x86 just isn't a serious player (except perhaps the new Sun Quad Opteron servers at $20k each. Nice), and if you are a serious player then you just pay what you have to because there's just not serious competition at that end of the market.
Microsoft on the other had DO care and have said their licences will be based upon sockets, not cores, so a standard XP Pro licence will allow you to use a dual socket, 4 way system for the same price as a normal 1 way, or even a notional 8-way (using SMT) on intel.
Of course God is perfect. How else do you define the word "perfect" in a universe He created? And the only reason Jesus is not a "model man", is because He is also God, and better than a man could ever really be. The only reason the world is imperfect is because we're here, and we choose to kill each other and screw each other over.
:I want that comment.:But that's a funny comment. Yo don't like funny comments:Yeah, 'know:What about that comment over there? Thats informative, you like informative comments.:Yeah 'know:So i'll just go and get that informative comment:No. I want that one.:Are you sure? It is funny.:Yeah 'know:OK I'll get the funny comment
I think you mean spontaneous fusion of hydrogen gas. It would be kinda tricky for a single proton to split, although I'm sure it would release an unbelieveable amount of energy if it actually did.
Well I personally believe this is a serious let off for people who use cheats in online gaming. I've been lobbying for a new amendment to castrate anyone caught using or creating cheats, so this seems rather tame. I'm just not sure it's a big enough deterrent/punishment.
I'm not sure you could really say that opteron is a better architecture than itanium, but what you can certainly say is that the computing landscape is much more ready for AMD64. Itanium 2 is clearly a very nice bit of technology, it's just not what people wanted or needed, and it suffers from the lack of software support.

Nice Python reference pal!!! Love It!!!

If the BBC provides a way for our American friends to know what their government is REALLY up to, then I for one am happy to pay.

I'm fairly confident that's the first time I've heard the phrase "Fundamentalist Catholic". Sounds like an oxymoron to me.

Buying Oracle is like buying a Ferrari. If you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it.

Troll!?!?!? It's a freaking Marvin quote!!! On topic AND funny!!
I'm trying to improve my English. Please correct me on any spelling/grammar errors in this post.
Umm... easy on the pot dude. It's playing hell with your spelling.
