Excuse my shortsightedness. Would you be so kind to explain _why_ the fact that british imams condemned the demonstrators showing those placards as being extremists has anything to do with Israel?
Do you have any proof about those condemnations being false? Why do you resort to the "guilt by association" fallacy?
While we are at it, would you be so kind to point out where is that memo referenced in the link you posted? Which, by the way, doesn't paint Palestinians in too good a light either:
Palestinians who were responsible for the killing of Israeli children after the establishment of the PA in 1993 also benefited from impunity.
Update: I found the reference you pointed out. Great work putting a link that explains next to nothing about your point of contention. Next time, link the document itself.
I find no information at the Wikipedia entry about luddites complaining about quality. Would you be so kind to reference your assertion about luddism being about quality? Because I can hardly see the relationship in, say, agricultural luddism against mechanical threshers.
The New Horizons mission page states that the probe will fly by Pluto during July 2015. I don't know what the probe's ability to get data from Pluto is, but anything that helps restrict the range of observations is, IMO, a good thing: a month can pass quickly.
That's strange because you can change your keyboard mappings (and even cycle through them on the fly through Control-Space). I acknowledge it is not a simple procedure to set up, but once you do it you don't need to think too much about it.
Trying to code on a hunt and peck thumb board that required escapes for most punctuation symbols was a waste of time.
Because you couldn't change the mapping, right? I agree that it's not the most comfortable keyboard ever, but I'm typing quite quickly with it, thank you.
Actually, while reading/watching about innate HIV resistance in subsaharian Africa, there was some information about the bubonic plague resistance being useful against HIV, which has already been mentioned. The same source stated that the genes providing this resistance survived in about 10% of the European population.
So no, most people survived the bubonic plague by not getting infected. Either that or those genes aren't really that useful otherwise.
Because recognizing that some tasks can't be left to individual greed if you want to achieve the egalité in the "liberté, egalité, fraternité" ideal is anathema. Yes, sure.
Think about it the next time your insurance company doesn't cover your medical bills (it will come).
Yes, that's an interesting aspect of evolution: since UV light was harmful the cornea changed to block it, but having those extra photorreceptors didn't harm so they didn't disappear:-)
Retinas _this_ way around are also damaged by UV light, specifically the longer wavelength UVA as UVB and UVC are stopped at the cornea. What's even more interesting: less than 1% of UV light reaches the retina because it is blocked at the cornea. I highly doubt that putting all that mess in from of the photorreceptors will have a noticeable effect on retinal degradation.
And it's part of the job of musicians to know how their music is going to be published. OTOH, PCM is not as "universal" as the GP thinks. I have seen some problems with PCM because two computers had different bit-endianness.

Why would you post the photos and no the whole article which includes quotes by several muslim heads condemning those placards or asking for that demonstration to be banned? Is reality perhaps more complex than what you want people to think?
Thank you.

Oh, dear, trolls must be starving now. Slashdot is not what it was any more.

...the movie was "Catch me if you can" (no, I didn't read the link- why should I?).

It seems the writer of the article hasn't learned there are no "dark sides" to the Moon.

And I'm a leaker.
That's what sanitary pads are for, you know.
Titillating idea.

Yes, if they think they never will make a mistake.
They are usually quite inflated on their own, I don't think they are that expandable.

You use "socialist" as if it was an insult. Unfortunately for you it isn't. Go whine somewhere else.
I think the word you are looking for is eructos.
Adding more cryptosystems doesn't automatically translate into greater security, as double DES showed.
AFAIK there are no signs of cetacean (or even water-dwelling) past in human evolution.
You are right. My brain wasn't properly engaged.
