I don't know what you are talking about... I was just hoping that one day Jesus would swoop down from heaven and remove all the christians, jews and muslims from the world. Maybe he could take the mormons, jehovas witnesses, 7th day adventist and oh I don't know maybe the scientologists too?
Europe (including Germany) is generally notably tolerant towards Religion and personal confessional preference, but just as humorless when it comes to defending that tolerance and freedom.
It isn't just science. The media screw up everything: Law, medicine, politics, sports of course since sportwriters all all nerds, you name it.
And since, in a democracy, the majority of people who vote at all base their vote on what the media presents to them, the entire system of government is also screwed up.
First thing that pops in my mind reading this are the Wraith from Stargate Atlantis. (parasites infesting humans and evolving in a human eating monster)
Oh pshaw! Thats just completely wrong and reactionary.
Wraith don't *eat* humans; they suck the life out of them. Totally different.
If someone else managed to blow up a steam tunnel, crash a tanker truck or drop nerve gas into a mall, it would be downright crippling.
If someone managed to convince the homeland security guys that someone *might* hypothetically *think* of doing something like this *that* would be downright crippling.
Actually, there is a penalty. The people who proposed the law look like fools
Penalty???
You are kidding.
People don't want non-foolish politicians or lawmakers; they want people in power that they can feel superior to. How do you think George W Bush got in power in the first place?
People don't want to feel inferior! So they vote for the idiots!
I've seen all ~70 episodes of The Original Series and all the movies, and I've no idea where the Kirk-sleeping-with-every-girl-he-could-find thing started.
I think it started with the urge to deny the existance of Kirk-Spock sexual tension...
Man, when a Token Ring card went bad, it was hell on the network, nothing worked because the token would not get passed properly.
The worst thing is when a user decides to unplug the cable to move something or whatever. Then the token can fall out and you have to spend hours on your hands and knees with a magnifying glass trying to find the damn thing!
If I recall correctly, the UK law has a clause to do with making it an offense to provide information 'likely to be useful to a terrorist', thereby effectively criminalising almost all knowledge... such as street maps, dictionaries, tourist guide books etc.
There is no valid reason for a non-military person to be able to own a hand grenade. The grenade cannot be used for any peaceful purpose, nor for self defense, because of it's extremely high collateral damage.
I think that some Americans may take issue with attempts to stop them from using traditional fishing methods.
'Basically, both Jews and Muslims claim the "holy land" as their own. So, who do we support, then, or do we just let them blow themselves to bits?'
At the heart of the problem is that Muslims and Christians both desperately want to be Jews. They, too, want the 'special deal' with 'god' that the Jews got.
But the Jews don't want someone not born a Jew (or who went thru a *very* special process of conversion) to share in Jewness. The Jews want neither Muslims nor Christians to be Jews.
This 'Holy land' is holy to Christians, Muslims *and* Jews for this very reason; that the Christians and Muslims want to be Jews.
And thats at the heart of most of the problems of the middle east and has leaked out into many other parts of the world.
they really can't envision how adaptation to one environment could possibly have the side-effect of allowing greater access to another.
The area now known as the Sahara Desert was once fairly wet with many shallow freshwater lakes and rivers and, due to climate change, became savanna and eventually the desert we see today.
Given that the 'African origin' theory is fairly well accepted I don't see any problem.
runas does not help when you want to run software which uses a copy protection scheme which involves loading a driver. Not without a *lot* of gymnastics and deep understanding of the system.

Will you be able to import decade-old and heavily munged Eudora email archives?
They can get very out of hand...

Make the world a better place...
Europe (including Germany) is generally notably tolerant towards Religion and personal confessional preference, but just as humorless when it comes to defending that tolerance and freedom.
:-\
Germany humorless? No, really??
Oh, and there won't be any rapture. It was a metaphor, you see?
Oh crap, I was really hoping there would be a rapture and that Jesus would save the world from all the bloody Christians...
I was even going so far as to hope that Jesus would be so kind as to extend the rapture to the Jews and Muslims too... that would be very nice of Him.

There was plenty of sex (including incest) in there as well, so I don't get it...
Yeah but the sex was almost always in the context of bad and sinful whereas the violence was almost always viewed in a favorable light by God.
Funny how those "family values" don't go after violence on TV.
Hey!
Violence is Gods work! Didn't you ever read the old testament??!?!?!?

Who doesn't?
Those with an interest in honor...?
Not until I see e.g. Photoshop and some WoW-equivalent (in popularity, not gameplay) games
and
I also like to play a game from time to time
Sorry... WoW... 'from time to time'... something doesn't add up here.
Like I said before, I don't have to be clever to get my job done. I just have to be annoying as all hell and disrupt conversations.
And let me guess... you are in a World of Warcraft raiding guild, you enjoy ganking noobies and killing vendors and quest-givers?
Modern pc's, use a gigabit controler, to offload the bandwidth and processing, before it reaches the pci bus.
Dude, who taught you punctuation? Arnold Rimmer??

But it does drop packets after it dies....
:-/
The question is are the dropped packets vendor trash or are they useful as mats/reagents etc?
Are they grey, white, green blue or purple?

Subversion *does* have many flaws but the storing of passwords is not one of them.
So they aren't stored in plain text then?

So why is there talk about trading liberty for security?
The true meaning of the phrase is trading *your* liberty for the security of the *government*.

when MS talks about "security", they mean "DRM"
I always assumed that they were talking about 'financial security'... their own.
