The small pox vaccine was an unusually aggressive vaccine giving severe complication to 1 out of 1.000.000 vaccinated (think hit by lightning). Very few other vaccines are anywhere as dangerous. I think the hepatitis vacinne is the most dangerous of the common vaccines now, and it just gives you joint-pain for a few days if you are unlucky.
Parents are worse. I know several otherwise very reasonable people who gets absolutely shitbrained whenever they are evaluating fictional threats to their child.
I keep wondering if they are using the same Google that I am.
Maybe not. When Fallout 3 New Vegas came out, it had some serious performance issues, I had seen a mod that fixed in while googling on my Linux PC. The link was the very first hit on Google. When I tried to find on Windows using the same search terms, it was not even among the first 100 links, and 8 out of the first 20 links was spam. I found it eventually by dual booting back to linux, using the same search terms again and writing the address down.
I still have no idea why Google is so much crappier when used from Windows.
The first game I ever saw with classic keyboard+mouse configuration was Descent 3D. It wasn't the default control configuration though, it was just the one everyone recommended. It made sense as a combination of FPS and flight simulator, and the mouse was really needed for full 3D navigation.
I expect all of the cables to be released publicly within the year
250.000 cables at 200 cables a day, in one year? Let's see, 200*360 is? -- well, I expect you to be wrong... Also they have new leaks about the banks in the spring, that doesn't even leave enough time to publish 1/10.
, and they have handed the entirety of the cables to certain news outlets.
Uhmmm yeah?? The comparison was to the Pentagon papers which was handled by the NY Times, and is apparently Okay, so how would letting the newspapers have the information be any different?
WikiLeaks has not released all the cables and probably never will.
The story is based on the premise that not all of the Pentagon papers was released only those deemed interesting by NY Times, and they claim this is unlike WikiLeaks.
The TRUTH however is that the only difference is that instead on only NY Times, we have 4 additional newspapers given permission to select cables to publish.
1. All cables are not published 2. The cables published are chosen by newspapers for their news worthiness 3. The cables published are redacted by the same newspapers.
Chrome is reporting both as safari and as chrome, it even includes a safari version number, as a minimum safari-version it is compatible with. When Chrome is spoofing to anyone not specifically testing for Chrome, it is hard to blame anyone misdetecting them.
I considered the possibility, but it didn't look like that was the case.
I believe firmly in allowing people to play the devils advocate or to admit to understanding the reasoning of those we otherwise call unreasonable. I just don't see a lot of that going on.
We are talking about noise, what do you think the deaf do?
And btw. where are you going with this? Lazyness is not a handicap. Those that suffer from sensory handicaps always has to be careful, they never had this luxery.
The SSH client for windows has always been free. It was the server you paid for. I still use the "commercial ssh" client at home, because it is free, and it works. Putty is only for netcafes, where the fact that it is a single executable that requires no installation is really convinient.
If you were reasonable you would spend a quarter of a second to look up before crossing the street. No the entire point is to protect the irresponsible by providing them were the sensory input the refuse to acquire for themselves.
He is trying to restate, the official excuse for why wikileaks is considered to have engaged in criminal activities, as his own opinion.
What you think of people who for some reason needs to pretend to think for themselves when they verbatime restate official statements, I will let you decide.
I think the story was that SWIFT is in Belgium and the US liked to track it, but the EU parliament then forbade banks to trace transactions through the US for privacy reasons.
Ironically apropos I did not know the US was later allowed to track the SWIFT data anyway until it was revealed by WikiLeaks, though I am not sure if it was really a secret, for some reason the turn-about fo the EU parliament to allow it anyway, just wasn't reported on.
Laptops are more common than desktops and have had that status for (I think) 4-5 years now. Though many of them are not powerful enough to be gaming machines, a large fraction are.
And some people do take them around to eachother, mostly students coming from university, or business people coming from work, but I am mostly thinking of students, a cantine can quickly have a few local lan game, or a few guys meeting after work for a few beers hook up their laptops and have quick game of starcraft.
It think you are wrong, but I think TFA is wrong too.
Counter-point: Wii, guiter-hero, etc.
If nobody wants to make money on split screen or coop gameplay, I am sure Nintendo and friends is more than happy to have the entire market for themselves.
Or maybe some people in accountancy actually gets emails asking them to help transfer money as a usual part of their of job - so it doesn't seem like an email send to a random person.

I know. I was generalizing. Even the worst parents I know wouldn't never NOT vaccinate their kids, but there are many fictional threats.
I thought it was inherited.

Debian is currently packaging 2.6.37RC6, it would give a few weeks and they will have 2.6.37
Well, thank god Moore's Law only states the number of transistors double every 18 months, and says NOTHING about speed?

At least a sledgehammer is an actual hammer. Using Java on a mobile devices is more like using a whale to hammer in screws.

It all depends on where you place the name, but in essence you are right. It is a complete mess :D

Because we know politicians asked them to stop, and the have admitted that they stopped the transactions due to pressure from congress?
It is not a conspiracy, it is simply political pressure, and bending to political pressure, and wellknown facts.

Maybe they just don't call it LAN parties anymore. Since everybody started using laptops there is a LAN party whereever you go.
