And that is one of the main problems with DARE, the way I see it. Instead of bitching and whining about cocaine and heroine, they should demonize the hell out of psilocybin and DMT. Then we would get the entheogenic revolution in no time.
A rather big computer magazine where I come from, used to print a series of 'How to upgrade your PC' articles. In each and every picture in that series, the person performing the upgrade is crawling on all four on a synthetic rug, where the computer was placed. All components going in and out of the computer was also placed directly on the same synthetic rug.
And what if the only reason this machine was considered sentient was that it had "free will" (or else it wouldn't be more than just another program, would it?)
And how do you accomplish "free will"? Well, there's some mumbo jumbo with quantum mechanics and Heisenbergs uncertainity principle, etc. You get the gist. So what if there is no state to measure, or measuring such a state is impossible. Then what?
Actually, fuck it. "Free will" is just another liberal myth.
One of the biggest flaws, is that for a file to check as a valid AVI file, you have to look in the footer for the filesize. Programs that adhere to the AVI specs won't accept partial downloads (you could be missing 10 bytes of a 2 gigabyte download, and it won't work).
When I think about it, this might be the case for IFF too, but I don't think so.
The pledge is nothing but a good old conditioning device. Brainwashing.
Are you ever amazed by how fast your knees jerk when the US is criticized? Are you wondering about your inability to find even the smallest flaw about the US society? Do you think little children saying pledges is a good idea?
I don't know any other western country where there is a mandatory (or even volountary) pledge to your nation. There certainly isn't one here.
The IFF specs utilized by the Amiga for a range of different fileformats, is the same specs that Apple's AIFF is based on. The common IFF audio files on the Amiga are 8SVX though, not AIFF. The IFF is just a container format like AVI. Contrary to AVI, IFF is a good container format.
Btw, Apple didn't follow the specs very thorougly (they used Apple style strings, instead of normal null terminated strings, for example).
While you might think that "IMAX is ghey, it's too mainstream for me", no that's not the case. It's still not as popular as to be called "mainstream". So you individuals are still safe.
You are so right. We should only focus on research that gives instant economical profit. I propose that most research funds should be given as loans, so that we won't get useless science like this.
You know that, and I know that, but the so called scientists won't accept that my healing touch cures cancer.
I can't "prove" it, but I know it in my heart and thus it is true. Also, I know a guy who once saw a ghost, and that proves that there is a spirit world.
Yet another random ranking that's supposed to make some kind of sense. Anybody that wants to believe that Steve Jobs is more powerful than Bill Gates will probably like it though. And even though Linus Torvalds does a great job with Linux, how do they figure he's powerful? Utter crap.
Cosmo for geeks?

Finally a voice of reason.
Statistics is just a tool for trend analysts, politicians and other scumbags.

Why don't you tell us exactly what a "soul" is first?
I have gotten several of these questionmarket popups, and only from Slashdot. Adaware 6.0 didn't find anything.
Haven't yet thought of checking the html on the previous Slashdot page when I get one of these, but will do next time.
require AdWords purchasers to certify
Easy solution. No problem for Google. Just add a disclaimer when purchasing AdWords.
Kerberos
Please don't mention slsk in public. It's already mostly ruined by the Audiogalaxy monkeys.
And for those of you who don't know; slsk is for electronic music.
Who's doing business with Pivotal? Canopy is.
For a second there, I hoped that the ways of Network Solutions were finally going to change.

It's also news for brights. Hopefully, a majority of "nerds" are brights.
While we're on the topic of new words, I want to introduce the word "dafts".

even OPEC thinks about switching from Dollar to Euro as standard currency
If this ever happens, the US is up shit creek. Expect lots of trouble if they try to do this. Remember Iraq?

The parent is way off topic.
Also, christian fundamentalists are damaging to our society. Please don't mod them up.

Get an SVG enabled Mozilla build and start playing with it. It's fun.
Will this prove to be an incentive for Netscape (AOL) to continue supporting the Mozilla Foundation?
It might have been (but it was not specifically).
Then again, it might have been about any number of US transgressions the last hundred years. Read some history.
Yes, Steinway makes pianos. I have one standing in my livingroom (purchased before they converted to the land of the dull and disenfranchised).
You still haven't showed how Steinway is generating "a bunch of economic activity".
Are you retarded, or just American?
Thanks for the clarification!
