uhmmm... I'm not sure what scientists you are watching conversations.. but here on planet earth
Scientist 1: global warming is for real
Scientist 2: heck yeah it is
Scientist 1: do we disagree
Scientist 2: no we do not
Polititian 1: those two scientists disagree, because if i do something for the environment it will cost me money and i don't like to lose money.
try listening to *actual* scientists, you will find they *all* agree global warming is very real
Heck yeah, If I went to one of those schools I would so make fake MySpace accounts of the all of kids I hate and post all sorts of illegal stuff on it. Finally it pays off to be a nerd:)
I'd probably even do it on the school network if I could so they could not track the IP address (if MySpace would even let them have it). Internet anonymity for teh win!!111
I do feel that every.mobi domain should be required to have a theme song. They would able to choose from the wide variety of Moby songs currently avaible for human use. This would certainly make.mobi domain more popular. I mean, who doesn't want to "shake their booty" while surfing the web.
If it becomes popular enough I'm sure most devices would only make you type in "yahoo" and then default to yahoo.mobi.
Anyways, I can easily see myself using these.mobi sites for regular surfing on my PC. They are a lot simpler and with no popups, minimal ads, etc.. these pages will be wonderful to view. Never again would I have to face the huge clutter of yahoo's current home page.
"Google, your product is high quality, but not high enough. So we are going to sue you"
I'm sure Google has put tons and tons of effort into filtering out porn. Should they be sued for not filtering out other things. They are a search engine, they provide information. Information is legal in the U.S. under all circumstances as far as I can tell. What you do with that information is another story...
Agreed, this is an excellent girlfriend game. Its simple enoguh that anybody can pick up the mini games within it, but they are all still reasonably challenging. Girls seriously don't mind this game at all, and acutally enjoy it. With 4 players its a fun group game also.
Agreed, books are simple. You open them and read them. Easy. No reboots, configueration, downloads or other crap. Also I don't have to worry about backing up my books in the cash a hardrive failure.
Hehe, but you must be sad to realize that once in full use there are Google employees out there who can technically (if they desired enough) track your every move. They would know everything you send via email, all of your chat information, and your schedule of events. Pretty scary stuff if you ask me.
Not to mention they could have your full search history and what news you read, what ads you click on, and what things you buy. That is, provided you use those features. It's a lot though.
I realize that nobody will read this, but I'll post it anyways.
I was using the whole thing seeing what features M$ was offering. Overall they offered nothing new. Then I stumbled accross the Custom Domain service, where I can setup email for my own domain. That awesome, seeing as how I've never been able to use the email address for my domain.
This is an entirely new an good service from M$ and I will be using it (unless I find something better)
Pete Conrad and Alan Bean did that on Apollo 12. They landed within sight and easy walking distance of Surveyor III, which had landed a few years earlier, and cut off and brought back part of the scoop arm and the TV camera. They're in the Smithsonian.
Right. As if they can't just pull some old camera arm out of the old sets they used to use. Sorry. I'll only be convinced if proof of the landings is found after the year 2000. Apollo 12 testifying to Apollo 11 being true does nothing for me. I need someone outside of the U.S. gov't to verify this all for me. Right now given the info we have it just makes too much sense that they were faked. It all falls together very well.
Stop trusting the U.S. gov't and start trusting your own brain.
No one believes that the trips to the moon never happened (especially the guy that moded my first post as a Troll). They think its just a big conspiracy theory. I read up on it though, and I'm very convinced that most of the info from those Apollo missions of the 60's and 70's were fake. The pictures were fake the video is fake and the sound is all faked. Once you stop and accept it, things make a lot more sense. They had such bad technology back then, and so very few problems. Yet somehow the perfect view and camera angle always seemed to exist to capture the best moments in man history in such an inspiration way.
Stop and think about Apollo 13. What a herioc story. Problems happened and man overcame it. It made us proud to be Americans. They used their wits and genius to get their way out of such a dire position. It is such a movie script. Its too perfect. Once I watched an interview of James Lovell. He seemed way more interested in talking politics of how the mission affected U.S. people than in the technical details of the mission and how he solved the problems at hand. Why? Because in 1995 we have the knowledge and resources to call his bluff if he said anything wrong. So he'd rather not speak about it at all than be called out as a liar.
I could write on it forever, but other already have. The Apollo missions were faked, and that is all there is to it.
I've long been debating a switch to alltheweb. The day of my switch may be soon at hand. Me and google have been together for many many years. Maybe google has just outgrown me though. I'll sure miss her though. She was good to me. Real good {sniff}.
Well, seriously though.. what of different cultures besides American Culture? When I went to China we were told not to use sarcasm to the people we interacted with. It was not a part of their culture and sense of humor to be sarcastic, and therefore they would not understand our sarcasm at all.
So Google keeps coming out with all of these great services and things (maps, gmail, picasa, groups, blogger) and they are all free. What I want to know is how they are free? There have got to be a ton server hits world wide, how does Google afford all of these things? I know they make enough money off of the advertising revenue program, but wow, this is getting rediculous.
The other thing is that they leave no room for any competition anywhere. Not only is everything google offers free, but its full featured and robust as can be. Even if its not full featured, somehow you can just rely on Google to make it so in the near future. Google is almost too good, I'm starting to resent them for how good they are.
we supposed to just let Isreal get the crap beat out of it by the countries around it? its not like isreal is antagonizing anyone. they are trying to defend themselves from the people around them who hate them. people who hate isreal enough to strap on a bomb and blow themselves up. thats a lot of hate. do you think you would just sit still and take it if someone did that to your country?

this whole story was linked to on the front page a few days ago.
.. unless I'm getting my news websites mixed up.. :P

Ahh good old mobi.yourdomain.etc
... my favourite website.

we might as well do it the right way.
yay! Google is not evil, and they might even be good!
The U.S. Gov't can't charge sales tax to Canadian companies. Can they?
It's a good thing we live in a global economy.

Why is Massachusetts brown, and the rest of they area around its borders is green?
Do people in New England not know how to grow grass or something?

crap I spelled mater wrong, so much much for me being a good marketing device :)
My Alma Matter, yay for hometown pride and me caring that they mentioned it on such a prestigious site as slashdot.
No, Hollywood would rather have the 8 bucks.
