There's been a 50% increase in the atmospheric carbon load since the state of the industrial revolution... above the steady state load of the last several thousand years
If you think a 50% increase in the steady state carbon load in earth's atmosphere, an increase that started with the industrial revolution, that has no explanation other than anthropologic sources is "maybe earth wants" then you're woefully misinformed as to how atmospheric science works
the fastest increase rate in the Holocene...
yeah.. it's all a vast conspiracy betweeen "statist regimes" and "Greenpeace" who want to.... stop messing up the balance of our planet?
how exactly does not screwing up conditions for human habitation of this planet screw you over?
Right wing climate change deniers show about as much intelligence as flat earthers....
Replace "President" with "People of the United States"
and the alternative was far worse.
it really annoys me that lots of people can sit around acting like nothing is wrong with the economy and that congress and the president just did this out of nowhere.
Hardly out of nowhere.. letting them fail would be far more harmful to the economy.
In a similar but related argument that pops up once in a while... nerds talk about hardening the Linux OS and say things like "the only thing rogue software could destroy is user data, the OS proper remains unharmed". Neglecting the fact that the whole fucking purpose is the data.
they understand that point... they're saying it can only destroy that one user's data, not all the users' data
firebug is what is slowing you down probably.. the others i'm not familiar with: make sure to turn it off when you're not using it.. especially on AJAX sites.
My plugins list is: Adblock+, Firebug [typically turned off], XMarks, FireFTP, Web Developer
i made no such error, you'll note that I said cable-company-supplied equipment sometimes respects it. it can be enabled, but there is no requirement that your tuner gives a rats about it.
hence mythTV. mythTV doesn't listen to it, noor do any of the tuners I've ever heard of that plug into PCI or PCI Express
yeah. always do 2. they're little more than a private citizen, they need clear cause to draw their weapon on you and if they do so without it they loose their license to work for a security firm. the security firm gets in trouble too if it happens to much.
I'm very big on smacking around cops that abuse their power, but the ones in the article you linked absolutely did not.
You don't run from the cops, ever.
let me repeat that
You don't run from the cops, ever.
If you've done nothing wrong you turn to them and ask "How can I help you officer?". It's a disarming response and will garner a positive reaction from them helping defuse a situation before it develops.
I was going to moderate this thread, but the egregiously wrong information in your post made me stop and comment.
And how well do analog capture cards work when folks like the MPAA turn-on the "don't record" flag? Not at all
WRONG. The "Broadcast Flag" was never instituted - it is a purely optional (and almost universally ignored by non-cable-company-hardware) standard. Furthermore it was digital only - so all your NTSC adapters that work with cable continue to work fine. Second no ATSC/QAM tuner i've ever seen even offered support for this hardly-implemented non-mandated anti-fair-use idea.
My mythBox is about the size of two VCRs, has 1 TB of storage, is attached to my 100base ethernet, I can manage my recordings over the web. I can use Hulu on it. I could (and might) install Boxee (i'd prefer to use mythVodka if they ever get that plugin working well). And has numerous other abilities that your two VCRs just cannot do.... MAME anyone?

Go Godwin something else you Glenn Beck and Limbaugh-listening dimwit.
You listen to certifiable paranoid schizophrenics you start to become one.

The Obama administration hardly has a monopoly on Orwellian names.. in fact they're no where near as good at them as the previous admin.

"I could care less" is invalid american slang.. it should be the same as the top... just we have lots of morons with bad hearing.
oh and to the other person... i can normally tell the difference between australian and english.. it just takes a few minutes of talking to them.
these people weren't old enough to have been using the machines you speak of [neither am i... im only 25]
if you use a .bmp bitmap as a heighmap.. wouldn't it then be a bump file?
so... maybe she was dealing with terrain data?

I would wager money that a lot of my countrymen do think the British sound elitist
this is why my parents computer has VNC server and DynDNS Updater running as system services
he never said it was correct, in fact implied that it wasn't. but it wasn't as incorrect as calling the entire computer the "hard drive".
He implied this:
In order of correctness [most->least]
Computer
CPU
Harddrive
only the top one is correct, but there are different levels of incorrect
No, anything based on Netburst [Pentium 4] would be more likely to be "an oven"
back in the late 90s i knew a lot of techs that when talking to non-techs would call the computer "the CPU".. i chewed their ass every time for it.
talk about missing the point.. go back to your theory class
go look up the halting problem. you can construct an algorithm that creates a contradiction.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem
the halting probably is still unsolvable on a real world computer.
should i really have to explain that to you?

That's when you
1) Demand his name and information
2) Call the police and file a report
3) Call Brinks and file a report
The Loomis rent-a-cops and the REI rent-a-cops do not have the right to demand that he produce photo ID.
The real cops can, but the real cops weren't there at the moment you quoted.
