Yeah, I was at ork and really didn't have time for a masters thesis on civilization tempering the drives of mankind, a quick anecdote was sufficent to state my position on the situation though.
True, but that repression of the core drives may be flawed in some cases. Few would argue that basic laws we have against murder, robbery, and rape are bad outgrowths of man's ability to repress their natural urges, but the same framework that gives us those laws gave us prohibition, the DMCA and a Progressive Income Tax.
I think that business competition is good, if HP can make a faster, more stable, and more feature rich unix machine with CDE instead of Gnome, let them try it, but I do think that they are making the wrong choice here. Sun's approach of shipping CDE but funding the devel of gnome as a future replacement makes more sense to me, but I'm just a lowly sysadmin.
for Marxism to work, human nature (developed through [creation|evolution|your theory on the origin of man]) would have to be scrapped. Humans are not the most altruistic species on the planet, the natural drive to kill a bigger mastadon, have a bigger cave, and to spread your genetic info on to the next generation are in us from birth, until Marx or his intelectual decendants can move this feature out of humanity (socialism|communism) can not work.
Software development (and any other venture IMO) thrives on competition though, the drive to build a faster, less resource intensive, and more feature rich product is what drives the free software movement at its core. HP has decided to stay maintain a symbiotic relationship with the mastadon that is CDE, when Gnome (or some other product) finally trounces the old "top predator" in the niche, the symbiote has no other choice but to find another host (the victor) or die (like I wish HPaq would).
It's doable, but painful. The good thing is though, with XP SP1, I had stayed on top of the hotfixes/patches/addons and the actual SP1 download was around 20MB, about the same as the.Net Framework. Just dial up before bed and hang up in the morning.
The only inconvenient I see is that X11 has no standard toolkit, and a higher level protocol would depend on the toolkit.
They tried that once, and you got Motif and CDE for the "real" Unices, you really don't want that, even Sun is moving to Gnome to replace CDE (and it looked great on my Blade 150 at Sun Sysadmin training in Feb). Yes Gnome and KDE cause a whole lot of duplication of effort on some projects, ie they both emulate or try to emulate Win XP's "fading" menus, both projects had to move developers to add that feature, but at the same time I'm sure there is some innovation that comes from this friendly competition.
Depleted is the operative, DU rounds are a hell of a lot safer than the lead paint in your house, asbestos in your house, or the 2 packs of camels you suck down every day.
Call me in a few years, France's (and Germany, another Euro socialist state), have enormous social responsibilities to its citizenry beyond the US example of Social Security, the number of people contributing to the pool to provide the services is declining while the users of services are increasing, a disaster in the making for their treasuries. The US does have an enormous debt (5-6 trillion, depending which numbers you read), but as a ratio to GDP or yearly tax receipts is exemplary (1:2 and 5:1, respectively). France and Germany have to find a solution to their problem and cutting deals for cheap oil from Saddam was one of the options they were trying to use, now that that has been cut off, the decline will be quicker.
but 53 EV is far more than 3 EV that SD could ever hope to muster. My take is we need to base congressional representation (and Electoral votes by extension) on the population of the smallest state by pop in each census. Say Wyoming (the smallest state by pop I think) has 1 million people, Kentucky has 5 million, and California has 34 million, they get 1, 5, and 34 house seats (plus their 2 senate seats). Now the only real question is if you round down or round up between the even multiples (if ND has 1 million and one, do they get 1 or 2 house seats, I say 2). The capping of the house at 435 seats is nuts.
socialism and communism have never (and will never) worked, but the "inteligent" liberals of this Earth keep pushing for them? Denying concrete evidence is not a sign of inteligence, it is ignorance at its highest levels.
bzzzt....nope. A WMD is any of a variety Nuke, biological, and/or chemical (non-explosive/incindeiary) devices, these weapons can be best described as being a greter psychological factor than actualy useful for military action. A cluster bomb is just a bomb that releases grenade sized "mini-bombs" before reaching the target, but they are standard
All I'm saying is that the founders never intended (or never predicted) on having "non-voting" territories. The Federal District should be divided for voting purposes following the lines of the rest of the VA/MD border, which is centerline of the Potomac channel, I think. It would require some juggling on city services, but Bristol, TN/VA and Texarkana should be able to provide the necessary analogs for a state border divided city and its operations.
Whoops, 84% of the media establishment's money went to Democrats in the last election cycle, check out opensecrets.org for more info. We have at this momment to strike back at hollywood for some of the braindead shit they have done in the last 20 years in retaliation for this dispairity in funding and the jackasses they have been making of themselves in regards to this war. I have suggested to my Congressman and Senators to fire back with both barrels.
You set a 10 record to postini and a 20 record to your backup mail relay in your name servers, if postini goes kaput, it falls over to your mail server, which you can allow direct access through. We were the guinea pigs for some of this stuff but it seems to be working out pretty well. Postini and your backup relays should be the only machines that you accept mail from,
Try looking looking into postini. You slip your primary MX records through them, leaving backups for direct access. And thir spam filter will quarantine for up to 14 days. Lock your mailserver against direct access (only accept mail via MX routing) and boom, you are set, per mailbox pricing isn't bad but I can't quote our rate, it is under $1/month/mailbox though.
I've pointed out that everyone in Western Europe and the SU and China were helping Iraq against Iran, they all the Kohmeni was a nutjob. I've aslo said that this President is bent on correcting the foreign policy mistakes of the last 25 years in the Mid East. Some states will change when offerd the carrot (Most of the Warsaw Pact is thriving in democracy and capitalism, China is increasingly becoming a freer state) but other nations will require the stick to begin change for the better.
You mean like my boss...It's wierd, most of the (male) management in the place is retired USMC or Army. Only 2 of the executives have not served at least some time (Human Services and Telecom Operations) at least a draft enlistment during Vietnam. Its wierd because everyone at the top is drawing a pension check for their service, and their paycheck. My manager (101st Airborne) fell off his roof in September, was in surgery on monday to set pins in leg and was on ordered FMLA, but came into the office on Tuesday just to hang out becuase he was bored...I go to the office to be bored most days.

No, keeping 2 Senators per state is fine, the US Reps just need to be adjusted I think I'm going to do a JE on election reform in the US though.

At least it's legal this time, old J. Edgar Hoover did this stuff under the table years ago.

It is getting late in the semester for many colleges in the US, if you are still writing frail loops you are probably not going to pass.

Move to Virginia or MD. There were not supposed to be residents of DC.
