  1. Re:Heh heh... on Carbon Dating & The Shroud of Turin · · Score: 1

    To me, whatever makes the most people happy the most often while hurting the fewest people is what is most moral

    Mahhhannn!!! There is so much wrong with that arugment! This is your view of what is "moral". It differs from many peoples view of moral. It differs from Adolf Hilter's view of what was moral. It differs from Mother Teresa's view of what was moral. Who's morals are actually right? Hitler's? Yours? Mother Teresa's? Or is there some ultimate standard of morals?

    How can something be "most moral", unless you have a standard in which to compare against? How can someones own morals be more moral than someone elses, unless there is a more perfect definition of morals to compare against?

  2. Mohammad was a paedophile on Carbon Dating & The Shroud of Turin · · Score: 1

    Islam is the only religion that still allows men to marry 9-year-old girls just as the Prophet Mohammad did.

    So Mohammad was a paedophile? Sick!

    Thank you for your interest in the project! This is a temporary page until the Slashdot flood wears off. We love publicity, just not all at once.

    iPodLinux does not currently run on a 4g/mini/photo/U2.

    In the meantime, visit us in IRC on irc.freenode.net #ipodlinux! Ask davidc__ about 4g support, we dare you!

    Egad! My Toshiba cranks the heat out! Almost to the point of pain. Toshiba laptops are expensive contraceptive devices huh?

    > I wonder what the heat from a two-stroke engine next to your nuts would do?

    Not sure about the heat, but the vibrations might leave you in an embarrassing predicament (pun indended) when standing up afterwards. ;-)

  12. I am typing this from Ubunto Live CD on Ubuntu Linux Live CD Release · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Weird! I got the DHCP failed message at initial blue console DHCP detection booting screen. Then it sent sigkill and sigterm to all processes (another weird thing like it was shutting down) prior to loading modules and then Gnome. At the Gnome desktop, DHCP now works and I can access the web. Perhaps there was some initial h/w detection happening before than main system loaded?

    But anyways, I was greeted by nice music on my SoundBlaster Live PCI sound as Gnome loaded and my ATI Radeon is working, although using the open source drivers of course.

  13. Predicitons: on eXeem Lite Public Beta Released · · Score: 1

    Soon they will be charging for ExeemLite. You just wait. Earlier copies won't connect probably, you will have to upgrade.

    A slew of exeemlite.tk style sites will replace the old sites, advertizing free legal movie downloads when you *buy* their product. The earlier versions of ExeemLite will get harder and harder to find. And even when you do obtain a copy, all the mp3 files you find shriek distortion though your hi-fi system that you connected to your pc.

    And in the meantime, the original Exeem will release news that there latest edition does not install Spyware without user's *consent*, even though the EULA states the adware nasties are to be installed for delivery of advertizing.

    > I saw the Chemical brothers lose their entire library at a live show once and it meant an unexpected 15 minute second intermission.

    If they actually played music then that wouldn't have been an issue. Traditionally amps and guitars can have problems, but all good players have backup guitars and amps to pull out in a flash.

    Les Paul Guitar -> Cable -> Cranked Marshall Amp -> Rockin' Roll!

    >Is this really in the spirit of the GPL?

    It sure is. One can presume it's merely running on Linux as an OS and that they have built their own hardware drivers.

    There are plenty of closed source drivers for Linux, and and plenty of closed source programs that run on Linux. Why is this any different?

    > Shouldn't the math textbooks have a disclaimer for Pythagoras' famous theorem?

    No they shouldn't. Because Pythagoras is openly taught as theorem, whereas macro evolution is blatantly and falsely taught as being fact.

    Geesshh!!! Scientists cannot even agree on how old the earth or universe is, yet so many textbooks (and documentaries for that matter) state that such and such events occurred x million/billion years ago as if established fact.

    Perhaps they should use words like "estimated to be" or "believed to be"?
