Well, I'm no Christian (I'm a Hindu), but the First Commandment says, "You shall have no other Gods before Me." Isn't that clear enough? The God that Christians worship does not tolerate the presence of any other Gods.
I personally respect everyone's religious beliefs -- I don't care what religion you are, and I will still bow to who you consider God. But I hate it when someone arrives at my doorstep proclaiming that the God I have faith in is no God as per their beliefs. I have as much faith in Him as you have in your own God. And by the way, I consider all Gods equal.
Why can't we all live together and celebrate our differences instead of trying to redefine science as per someone's random beliefs?
I wonder why creationist theorists want to replace science with scriptures. It's not like Christianity is the only religion to believe in a Supreme Creator. I'm a Hindu by religion and that's what our scriptures say too (or at least that's what those who've read the scriptures say they say). But even those that are considered Hindu religious fanatics seldom act so stupid, trying to change science textbooks to fit their theory of life, the universe and everything.
I personally prefer to have science shape my reasoning and let religion shape my faith. No crossing over.
Hindi is the language, and a Hindu is a person who follows Hinduism as his/her religion.
You know, just like we don't speak Christian or worship English Gods.
[...] they've put the entire display on a separate "remote" unit. That sucks.
Not really; I use my Rio Volt MP3 player in my car's glove compartment, and use the wired remote to control it from the console. There's no space to keep the entire player on the dashboard, and it's too cumbersome to have all the controls inside the glove compartment.
This is one of the precise reasons I might favor the iAudio over the iPod.
Exactly, which is why this comes as a disappointment! I've begun to trust Mozilla Alphas many times more than Microsoft's been-through-testing-and-found-OK software.
I've had trouble getting Sunbird to work with any Calendar but the default. Also, when downloading and publishing remote calendars, all I get is a blinking icon (of two rotating arrows), with no further progress. Is Sunbird *really* ready for the public yet?:)
I use it not just for projects, but also for my thunderbird and firefox profiles [...], my mp3 collection, desktop, documents, pretty much everything i use on a daily basis.
I was thinking of doing this, but is the space requirement of such a scheme justified? I never tried it, and I'd like to see some numbers. TIA!
... that the Get The Facts website referenced in the article has been serving broken stylesheets to Opera and other non-MS browsers? Simply setting the User-Agent to MS IE 6.0 gets you a better stylesheet. Poor MS, when will they play fair?
You need that period of getting lost all the time when you first move somewhere to really learn it, rely too much on GPS nav and you will never know the city properly:o(
I partly disagree; I use my GPS system to augment my sense of direction, not to replace it. I've found it better to get a feel of the place since I can superimpose a real map (from the GPS) onto the road I see in front of me. Now, that kinda reinforces the what-intersects-what info.
Now I'm stuck forever buying map upgrades and newer and better systems at vast cost
Map upgrades? I'm pretty sure roads don't come in v1.2.4 or Main Street 2003 versions. I'm in Georgia, and use a 2001 database. The only thing that's wrong is the Exit Numbers on the interstates because they renumbered them. But still, every exit has a name+number, and that's enough to find the right one. Now, if you're the kind who needs nightly builds of every software you use...:)
already exists. Atleast one such system was developed at GeorgiaTech by Prof. Gregory Abowd & Prof. Beth Mynatt, among others.
It was supported for some time, and then taken off because the research issues to be investigated were found answers to -- and nobody had the manpower to keep supporting it on a regular basis.
Exactly. If msn.com does not work with Opera, I'll dump MSN before I dump Opera. [And BTW, now was the first time I visited MSN in about 2 years -- just to see what it does to Opera users.]

Happens to me all the time - I try to do gestures in IE when some site forces me to use IE. (ShareBuilder being one of the notorious ones -- it assumes any browser other than MSIE & NS cannot handle "recent" advances in technology like CSS!
If you're on Windows, try Stroke-It, a gesture recognizer that works across all Windows applications.

So that must explain why they think the earth is flat ...

Now, ain't that "a weird name" really ...

Surely you mean SCOlesterol?

A fitting cartoon for the New Year's, looking at where we're eventually headed.
Someone recently happened to mention that NetFlix is probably the largest bandwidth provider these days.
Or something like my WEP key, it's gotta be valid Hex, so it's DECAF CAFE BABE BAD DEAD FACE (with a bunch of zeros in there somewhere).

Will this be the beginning of a rematch between VeriSign and the world?

FYI, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam is a Muslim himself, although backed by the reportedly Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party.
Most people wouldn't be able to tell you what browser they were using. I've often asked someone what browser they use, and they start with "www..."
