What are you trying to say here? It doesn't make any sense. Lives don't matter? Make believe world? How does that relate to the Cold War?
The first part of that, I didn't say. You did. You're confused when I say that your country doesn't care about life? Why, that's what we have been talking about the whole time.
I said nothing about the world being better under communism. You want to pretend that the cold war wasn't a pissing contest you go right ahead. You are a victim of propaganda if you do.
How does that have anything to do with terrorists from the Middle East taking over US commercial aircraft 20 years later in the 1970s?
The war, WW2, came to us. We didn't ask Japan to attack Pearl Harbor, any more than we asked Germany to attack our shipping in the Atlantic.
Exactly. The rest of the world was already trying to defend Europe when you cowards did business with the Nazi's and refused to get involved. Not until you got dragged in to the war did you stick up for anybody.
No the core issue is that your country does far worse things than you accuse your enemies of doing. And you have no conscience about doing them. Murder is murder, no matter what you want to call it, it is still that.
We aren't losing this war. How can you say we are?
Your allies backing out, opinions of your own people, the escalation of violence, expanding battlegrounds in Pakistan, etc, etc..
Al Queda is defeated there; again even if they arrived after we did, doesn't matter, they are defeated there now
Doesn't matter? Yes it matters, you brought them there, you brought them to Pakistan. Your country is sociopathic.
And yes there is a comparison whether you like it or not. Bush Jr has brought more distruction to the world than Saddamn ever could have if he was trying to.
Fighting the Russians wasn't about saving you. It was about saving us.
Right, the rest of the world be damned. Lives don't matter. It's your make believe world of being altruistic that is the main thing to protect. I thought I'd humour you, guess you didn't get the joke.
As I said, attacks against us have been going on for 30 years.
Right, about the time you fighting the communists and stuck your nose into other people's business, played both sides, and started the war that you fight now. Great plan so far.
Vietnam is a great analogy. It's a war that you lost for the same reason you are losing this war for. The more success you have at killing people, the more people want to kill you.
Better leave the Iraqis with that nut job and his crazy sons.
Yeah, but you elected your nut job and his crazy sons.
Yes it is that simple. When they attack you, you call it terrorism. When you attack them, you pretend that you are delivering justice. It's not justice if people die, it's just more terrorism. All you think about in conflict resolution is death. You deserve what you get, the rest of us don't.
Don't also be so foolish to think that we will kill every one. If we wanted to do that, there are easier ways. We have prepared to kill Russians, more white people, for the last 60 years.
Right, the last boogeyman that you saved us from. Idiots.
You wouldn't have to give up if you didn't go there in the first place. It's going to happen eventually just like it did in Vietnam. The rest of the world will say I told you so, and life will hopefully go on. If you haven't fucked the situation up completely already.
We have only two options, don't kill the people we want to kill, or kill the people we want to kill and kill innocent villagers. We choose option b.
There you have it. Stop killing people. It's very simple. You can't win a war like that, those people you came to "liberate" hate you now. Only a few did before, but now everyone knows a bunch of people who were killed.
The whole thing started when some group who has yet to take responsibility flew some planes into some buildings killing a bunch of your guys, so you go over there and kill some brown people. Soon the people who you are killing will find some way to kill a bunch of you again aside from the ones who are already being killed overseas, and you'll return the favour by destroying some other country (like Pakistan).
You will probably kill us all, and all the while claim you were trying to protect us. Disgusting.
In the US, if you intend to kill someone, and kill them, we'll execute you.
Exactly. It all depends on your perspective. Where I live, and where most everyone who claims to live in a civilized country live, it is illegal for the government to kill you. No matter what you have done. Respect for life is paramount.
Besides, if we didn't care at all about those people, why use cruise missiles or smart bombs at all? It would be a lot cheaper, easier, and safer for our own troops to use a fuel air weapon
You use bombs from planes because you are afraid to die. Your country has pissed off more people than you can afford to send there to fight on the ground. This was the reason why most people were opposed to the war in Iraq. Because too many innocent people would die, and you would be unable to decide who to shoot at. Your government assured us that they had "precision weapons", and innocents would be safe. That was a lie.
They have no problem blowing up a restaurant full of people at supper hour if there may be a "terrorist" inside. You have to be pretty fucking stupid to not be able to realize that blowing that restaurant up is an act of terrorism in itself. I have no idea if they believe people are stupid enough to not make the association, but it seems they do, and it seems they are.
In the openning days we shaw "shock and awe". We were shocked and we were awed at how your military obliterated any form of law and order in that country and stood by and watched as it was robbed of so very much. It had nothing to do with liberating anyone.
Recklessness that has infuriated more, escalated the violence, and as a result everyone is worse off than they were when Saddamn was in power.
We used those weapons in Vietnam to clear landing areas for our helicopters.
Right.. The trees were what you were after. Disgusting.
Who you intend to kill makes no difference. I could probably drink a 24 of beer, and still manage to stumble over to my car. I may be intending to just get some midnight KFC, but the people I kill along the way are still dead.
The last thing this world needs is more fundamentalist nutjobs with their perverted sense of "righteousness" combating or encouraging governments in their pursuit of eternal reward.
Righteousness doesn't belong to anyone promoting any kind of violence. Only peace.
Oh, and care to quantify and cite sources for your absurdist claims against the US government's campaign against innocents?
You are actually going to deny that the U.S. government killed innocent civilians in the past and present?
Unlike landmines which your government has no problem leaving around for children to play with after you are done exploiting whatever situation you can. The U.S. has no right to claim it is in a righteous pursuit of terrorists. They have killed many many more innocent people than Saddamn ever did, and they helped Saddamn to commit his crimes.
The people who try to hold their government accountable for its actions are not clueless. They are the righteous.
Because when you run 32 bit apps in a 64 bit OS, many of the libraries which those apps link with need to be 32 bit. Firefox links with GTK+ for example, so you end up with 32 bit Gtk+ libraries, and all of its dependancies as well as their 64 bit libraries for your desktop loaded at the same time. It's wasteful. And when I load my 32 bit browser, the theming doesn't work. It's a pain in the ass like I said.
It isn't a question of the browser requiring 4GB of RAM. There are other factors that provoke the decision to run a 64 bit OS. Running a 32bit browser and associated libraries is a pain in the ass. Sites that don't work with swfdec, I close and never come back.
Because a lot of good programmers are tied up in projects that simply don't move the ship forward. They only decorate a room on the ship.
That kind of stuff has almost always been done at the distro level. Sun, Redhat, Novell, Ubuntu, etc. Independant developers tend to stick to their projects at least in the Gnome universe.
I wish Sun, or someone else would do more usability studies like this one. That is exactly the kind of feedback we need. I find it nearly impossible to imagine the noob experience after having used Linux for the past 10 years.
No not at all.. Just the kind that happens outside of marriage, and even then the kind that involves sex without intent to conceive a child. Oh and it also must be between a man and a woman. No fewer than two participants.
Any other rules you can think of while we're at it? For the non-christian rational mind, basically consent of both parties is good enough.
Take gay marriage for example. If two gay people get married, it has no effect whatsoever on someone who doesn't know them. Why would they be opposed to the marriage? Because they live their lives based on a set of morales that there is no reason that others should follow, but instead they cast judgement anyway.
Why would anyone be opposed to me rolling up a joint and smoking it? I'm not forcing anyone else to smoke it, I go outside. I'm not going to go rob anyone if I run out, it grows right out the ground and doesn't have to cost anyone anything. The only reason it does cost me something is that growing it myself is too risky. The fascists will kick my door in if they find out I do. Yet the same people who call me a criminal will go out and drink alcohol, and think nothing of it.

And I hope you stop bullying the rest of the world and they stop attacking you.

You must be kidding me. That or you really have no idea what is going on.
Exactly. The rest of the world was already trying to defend Europe when you cowards did business with the Nazi's and refused to get involved. Not until you got dragged in to the war did you stick up for anybody.

Reckless behaviour is intent.
Those villiagers lives are less important than your retaliatory war of lies. Got it. 3,000 of our people died, so we'll take 300,000 of yours.
Like I said, don't claim to be the good guys. There are no good guys involved.
Bullshit. You fly planes over villiages and drop bombs, then you intend to kill civilians. There is no other logical outcome.
Righteousness doesn't belong to anyone promoting any kind of violence. Only peace.
You are actually going to deny that the U.S. government killed innocent civilians in the past and present?
Go ahead and stick your head in the sand, but don't call others clueless or ignorant while you do it.

People do stupid things regardless of which fairy tale they believe in. It's not evidence of anything in particular, just that people are gullible.

Link for 64 bit version please?
I use swfdec currently. It works some of the time, and I'm grateful when it does.

I have no idea which way the causality works, but there definitely is a correlation. Not just in your country, but all over the world.
The people on the right usually oppose anything that conflicts with their "morality".
You're forgetting that here in Canada, the content providers were the ones that lobbied to have their levy applied to blank media.
We've already paid to download those movies and songs. Not downloading them would be throwing money away.
