And how has he done that? NO really....how?
BTW: I do agree that warning labels are not censorship. What is wrong with saying what the content is? Liberals hate this because they can't stand for truth to be known about anything they do. No one is saying "Don't listen to this!" or "You can't listen to this." The warning labels are there to say, "This product contains this content." In light of all of the hooplah over the MPAA and folks saying "I don't want to buy the whole CD, I want one song so I download." Well, think about buying your son or daughter a CD only to find out it contains lyrics about raping people and screwing animals. Don't they have some right to know about the product before buying it?
OT from parent: Ya know. Everyone bitches about Americans but they keep coming over here and visiting Disney World. OH! And they sure cash those checks we send over to help them. The truth is, if our economy collapsed, the world economy would collapse. If we stopped buying goods from other countries, they would go into recession. OH but we're so evil. Why? Because we shun socialism? That is a GOOD thing. Hear me, Euro-idiot-Socialists? We prefer freedom. Don't like it? Don't buy American and above all don't come here on "holiday!"
Uh..and what could any president have done about global warming 250 million years ago? Seriously! If Kerry had been president then could it have been stopped? No. If the Kyoto Accord had been signed, coculd it have been stopped? No. With so much evidence pointing to global warming being a natural phenomenon, the Kyoto Treaty is looking more like a joke.
This would have to coincide with lots of other advances. Living twice as like would double your chances of catching diseases, being struck by lightning, being hit by a bus, etc. Okay, technically not "double" because I don't think statistically it would be so simple. It would, however, increase those chances and not just because of chance. A longer life exposes you to more opportunities to die prematurely. Okay, okay, so I'd like to take this chance too! I'm just pointing out the obvious. grin
Okay. You should preface your comments with: "BTW: I'm an idiot." I didn't catch your sign. Clinton and CO. did NOTHING to tackle SS. The Surplus never materialized. It was based on projections. A HUGE chunk of which was wiped out by the dot-com bust, which, btw, started under his administration. They managed to come up with the projections and then made the assertion that, "hey, this could be used for SS." That's not implementing a plan to save anything. That, at best, is saying, "Well, we expect better revenue in the future, we'll deal with it then."
Or maybe rolls have been defined not by the whims of men but by design. Think about it. If you take the stand that we've evolved from lower order primates, then logic would dictate that these rolls have also evolved to suit the survival of the species. That even 60 years of "feminism" has been unable to crack this nut may be a simple matter of fighting nature.
Conservatives? You know, this was a major stumping point for Clinton, Gore, and Kennedy a mere 6-7 years ago. There was all this hooplah about how we had to fix it. Now that Bush is saying the same thing, we get the left saying, "What problem?"
My wife's neurologist told us that generally speaking, male neurosurgeons tend to have more success than female. He noted that men tend to be more mechanically inclined and that this made them better suited to surgical procedures. He said he never gave much credence to the notion until he started his practice and noted the number of patients with re-occurences or complications and the relative disparity between those with male neurosurgeons and those with male neurosurgeons. What he said made scientific sense and I didn't take it as sexist. Are there exceptions? Sure. Probably many. I can tell you when it came time to have a benign meningioma removed from my wife's head, we went with the male. It turned out my wife liked his personality better anyway.
Take notes, people. Liberals never want you to expose any truth about them. "Global Warming" has to be a fact and no one can be critical. The Theory of Evolution worked under just such a dogma. Hammer it until it's accepted as fact and redicule any attempts to question it. The sticker said "Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. The material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered." Someone explain the "creationism" in that statement, please. I can't find it. Let's break it down. "Evolution is a theory, not a fact." True. Widely held and supportive of evidence, but a theory nonetheless. "The material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered." This could just as easily be construed as ENCOURAGING creationsists to consider Evolution. Once again academia wants "careful, scientific, and logical study" to only inlcude acceptance of their ideology. This is idiotic.
They didn't just abandon "leeches" they abandoned customers. Many companies were left with 1 year or more agreements that became useless when they dropped support for RHDL. This pissed real customers off! They weren't losing money on boxed sets, something that RH admitted in a past/. interview. They just didn't want to focus on it anymore. Well, it cost them. It may be that they want to back out of Fedora altogether. RH is becoming Sun (think about it, really, scary, eh?) and Sun is becoming...well...some kinda proprietary version of Richard Stallman.
If you want to run RHEL but not pay for support, run CentOS. Personally, I'd pay for support if it was reasonable.
Add to that there are even those saying this earthquake is "what you get with Global Warming" and "constant developement of the Earth's crust (basements, pavment, etc.) also contributed to the devestation." I love it when idiots like this speak. Sometimes free speech servers no other purpose but to identify really stupid people.
I agree with most of what you're saying. I would encourage you to not lump "conservatives" together as supporting these notions. I think many conservatives that support the M$ notion of "we're just trying to do business" are ignorant of the market. Usually, you hear this from people in some other business. I'm a conservative. I support the Replublican Party. I do NOT, however, support Microsoft's business model. I feel they are a corrupt company and I try to encourage people to recognize this when I get the chance. I DO support capitalism. I feel it gives the individual the best opportunity for success and history has proven this. I can understand how people draw similarities between the OSS movement and "socialism" or "utopianism." However, I encourage those people to understand the the market is not a political environment. Politics may effect it, but it is not inherently political.
Okay. You say that like it's inherently bad. Oh, and BTW are you saying that you would openly support Kerry or Hilary knowing a) they voted for it, b) they didn't even read it? Quite the educated voter, eh?
What an idiotic statement. How can you even compare, truly compare, responses by Bush and Hitler? forget the content, but rather look at the tone of the responses. C'mon, be intillectually honest with yourself, at least. UGH! Don't use every post as a chance to spout stupidity even if you happen to be stupid. If you're not, then give some meat instead of this rubbish.
As for RMS, look he's a visionary blah, blah, blah. There are things to be learned from him, for sure. But to take him as seriously as he takes himself would be to suspend reason, logic, and practicality.
I agree. Going from "my copy of Office" to "Pay-Per-View" applications isn't going to happen overnight. It's going to be very difficult to convince end users to go for this. This may work well in the enterprise, but not for the home user for the foreseeable future. First of all, where's the sell? For someone who can get a cheap PC or a settop box this may be tempting. As long as CPU speeds are up and HD's are cheap, this is a solution looking for a problem.
You, Sir, are funny! Of course, if you're serious then you're insane. Nah, I think you're just funny. War by definition is not insanity. I suppose Hitler should have been left alone. I mean, if those Jews in the conentration camps had REALLY wanted to be free, they would have risen up themselves, no?
I'm ashamed you're an American too. This is an initial amount. Be thankful your government wants to assess the situation before handing over multi-millions of dollars to the U.N., a known corrupt organization that bilked hundreds of millions from the "Oil for Food" program. You, Sir, are a moron. With any luck, you're sterile.
How conveniently you've wrapped your twisted notion of religion. Namely, that those who believe in God are in kinship with those who believe the world is flat and that the stars are merely lights in the sky. Yet you adhore that which you disdain. Darwin himself believed in God. Yet he's a genious for his views on evolution and an idiot for believing in God? Oh, and where are the "proofs" of which you speak above? BTW here's where you can insert your theories and tout them as "proof." Show me the missing link in the fossil record for instance. And while I'll give you that the Earth is likely older than a few thousand years, I'm not sure that is the point of the geneologies in the Bible. Nor is it a foregone conclusion that you can date the Earth by Carbon 14 (things on the Earth, yes to an extent). Finally, if there is a God and he did stop the Sun overhead, how does that negate it being round?
Now THAT is funny! That is a serious depth of ignorance but then again, so are so many who buy into this crap. Then they band together in groups and think that by saying it enough it become accepted truth. This quake is a terrible tragedy but almost equally terrible is that the U.N. and many other corrupt bodies are going to profit from it at the expense of tax payers in the U.S. and other countries giving help.
Good point. I wondered how long it would take for the U.S. to be blamed. Looks like no one has found a way to blame the U.S. for causing this, so they're blaming the U.S. for not giving a shit. When all is said and done, however, it will be the U.S. who spends the most money on it. A huge chunk of the world, and "the blue states" may be "ashamed of the U.S." but they know where to get the handout, don't they? Everyone of these negative posters can piss-off. I hope I live long enough to see the U.N. booted out of NYC. The ONLY good they server there is as a convenient place for us to spy on the governments of the world.

Maybe he's experimenting on himself! I mean, how long did it REALLY take to grow that beard!

Yeah. It was on the news. Greenpeace was one and some outfit in the UK.
