You didn't kill for my country. You may have killed for a policy, and if you think that makes you wise, brave, or otherwise better than me or anyone else then you sir are quite mistaken.
I'm very concerned about my civil liberties, but I'm even more concerned that the the next time I take the 'plane, the bus, the subway - or I'm just sitting at my desk, or on holiday with my family - I might get wiped out by some terrorist.
Quit being a sheep. You have a far greater chance of being killed by an auto accident, an earthquake, or even getting struck by lightning than by an act of terrorism. Even if they blow up a mall somewhere each week. - http://www.reason.com/news/show/36765.html
Who ever suggested that global warming would be symmetrical?
We're seeing massive increases in temperature in some areas and some cooling in others. It's kind of like one part of the earth faces the sun or something.
Einstein formulated the theory with 2 colleagues, Podolsky and Rosen.
It's called the EPR Paradox in the scientific community.
Einstein was no fan of it, and he believed it was a way to point out how silly the idea of Quantum Mechanics was, but he was very much the discoverer of it.
This is as important to understanding Einstein as "God does not play at dice", his basic objection to the probability implications of QM and EPR.
He may not make creative content for a living, but that doesn't make his point any less valid.
I personally make a lot of creative content, preform publicly and even market my works all without requesting any monetary contribution.
I realize that others may be profit motivated, but a lot of musicians simply play for fun.
There wouldn't be any lack of music or a lack of films if the MAFIAA closed tomorrow and the studios closed their doors. If that were to happen you may indeed see a cultural revolution of sorts where Britteny Spears and Spiderman 4 are replaced with actually creative works.
The grandparent is correct. The speed of sound is variable and is determined by the mater the sound is traveling through (really just bumping atoms together).
Any solid is really just widely separated atoms linked together by the strong force, and bumping one side of said solid causes a rather quick domino routine which is replicated on the other side at some significantly small fraction of c.
Can you think of some monopoly in the US that isn't supported by decree of government?
No, can you think of any company which isn't supported by decree of government? Didn't think so.
I hate that stupid chicken and egg argument. The fact that we (the government in the US) have created laws means that we like to live by rules rather than by whatever madmax system you seem to be promoting.
By pardoning Nixon, Ford suspended the due process of law which would have most likely convicted him of high crimes. Now a standard has been set which exempts the executive from due process and makes the law inherently unequal for all of us.
Some day historians will look back at the current administration and see the clear link between these two things and the runaway executive power which has so weakened this country. One can only hope that future administrations do not exercise this practice in the future.
Someone should point this out next time the old "slashdot is liberally biased" argument comes up. There's no lack of bias on either side when it comes to moderation.
People with guns kill people. Black people with guns kill people. Black leaders want to protect blacks from gun violence. Black leaders support bans on guns.

I'm impressed. Do you base all of your opinions on puppets and cartoon characters?
But is it running on a Mac+ or AMD?
It is if you're a rail commuter.

100 cycles per 10000 seconds, what about that?
"and who watches the watchmen watchmen?"
Easy answer: Turtles
All those companies are subsidiaries of Sony Group.
If Wal-Mart split off the shoe department as Wal-Mart Shoe Company but still controlled it, it would still just be the shoe department.
Racial stereotypes hurt everyone. Grow up.
If you had said incompressible row of particles they would be a singularity and thus take up no space.

Fuck classy. I want my due process back.
Unorganized fails the "well regulated" test. The 2nd is talking about the national guard, not the boy scouts.

What doesn't make sense here?
