More seriously, I've recently come into a workplace with a bunch of Slackware 10.2 servers and no remaining sysadmins. I'm used to Debian, so the lack of package management capabilities seems to leave me with a hideously manual process to update any available security updates for the installed packages. What's the correct procedure for this on Slack?
Yes, it's true that something as complex as life could not have occurred by chance. Nothing more complex, like a creator, could have either, of course, so obviously we don't exist.
I'm not convinced with the "involuntary" part. The US contact with Iraq has been, on the Iraqi side, involuntary, but I'm pretty certain that they're still a country.
The recognition, or lack thereof, is a political game, but not just a political game.
Israel, like Palestine, is recognised by some countries and not by others. If Israel happens to be recognised by your country and Palestine not, that doesn't make it more a country than Palestine.
The status of a country is hardly an objective fact. Consider Taiwan - country or not? As above, it depends who you ask.
The mods are crazy, that should be +5 Insightful, not funny...
On another note, I grew up on a farm outside America. We had guns. Locked up, inside the house, where they could be retrieved if absolutely required. Anyone who drives around with guns on them all the time, on a farm or elsewhere, has a few screws loose.
The key difference is that a cyclist and bicycle combined will have a mass averaging under 100kg; a car and its passengers combined will mass much more.
If I were somehow travelling at 200km/h on my bike and hit a pedestrian, it's very likely that they'll be in far better shape than if I were to hit them in a car at half the speed.
The problem is compounded if you happen to be in a monster SUV, with even more mass:)
Of course, coming off your bike at high speed is going to hurt as well, but I'd rather come off after hitting a pedestrian than after being hit by a car. And I'm guessing that they'd rather be hit by the cycle as well.
I think most of you do. The idiot that modded me troll apparently didn't read my post, and thought I was somehow insulting the American people. Perhaps I should have emphasised the in charge part...

Yes, technically they have elections, but that isn't enough to make it a democracy.
Well I use Slackware
Ah, well, there's your problem right there ;)

I would have thought that rhetoric does have negative connotations, although not negative denotations, but that's just me being a pedant ;)
I do agree with everything else though.
Wait, there are adverts here?
Ahahaha, nice one. Let us know how he goes.

Glad we could clear that up!
What? I like feeding trolls
This concept of paying to receive calls and sms... It's a strange world you live in.
Yes, anonymous was probably the right way to go with that submission on this site ;)
Also, a trivial script to go through your open screens (useful if you run a bunch of torrents on some server somewhere...)
I second that; if it's autogenerated, then I'd like to play with this tool :)
Being bought up Catholic is one of the surest ways to end up an athiest anyway ;)
I haven't at any point in time claimed it is a country. Your interpretation shows how little you know of the English language :D
The point is simply that the definition of a country is not simple. And being dependent has little to do with it.
And it's indisputable that whatever the Palestinian territory is, country or otherwise, has been invaded by Israel.
I'm not sure what the addition of "independent" is for... It's not independent, but being invaded doesn't make it a non-country.

I don't recall anything happening on the 9th of November either...
You'd think that wouldn't you... As it turns out, the Aussies are more wooly than the kiwis.

Yes
An MMOG and a spectator sport that I want to watch!

Yeah, stupid laws. If I hit a pedestrian with my bike, odds are we'll both be fine. The same odds don't apply if a car hits a cyclist.

They have standards? ;)
But more serious, this post has Australia in the list.
It's a little odd... and the countries in your list don't match the countries in the OP list.
Is this the same group that was pushing the ACTA scam?
