  2. Re:Far Left? Far Right? Just keep your mouth close on Teacher Cannot Be Sued For Denying Creationism · · Score: 0

    I do believe the point of a school is to teach math, science, english, reading, writing, perhaps gym class and foreign languages.
    The rest is up to the parents, friends, and if they feel the need, sunday school or saturday synagog.
    If Science scares religious people that much, perhaps they should conjure up a spell or ask their god to do something about it.
    And until the spell works or "god" responds to their wishes... I mean prayers, you should just stick to what people have been doing for decades.

    Well, now you have your confirmation that being a Chiropractic is nothing but witch doctor voodoo.
    That must be super for you to have validation from the scientific community that your ability to relatively "pop knuckles" is viewed as a scam.

  6. Re:Dark side? on The Dark Side of the Tech Patent Wars · · Score: 1, Interesting

    You assume the tech patent holders care about what they leave in their wake.
    If it implodes they will take their money and schemes elsewhere. Holy shit, just look at the pharma industry.
    Have a heart condition that requires our pill to save your life? That will be $500 per pill, why that much? Because we can, and fuck you for living.

  11. Re:Audio webcast link on HP Spinning Off WebOS and Exiting Hardware Business · · Score: 1

    Why in the hell would they want to exit the hardware business?
    Their PCs, laptops, and servers are the "mid-range" that I always get because Dell is cheap, but I can show how shitty they are and IBM/Lenovo is the best but too expensive to justify the cost.
    Of course I always reinstall the OS because of all the crap they throw on it. But really you have to do that for all of them.

    Wait, so you are saying that a game back in 1994 which was less complex, less graphically impressive, but popular in the arcades would have cost more today?

    You know... I seem to remember a group of people taking the "martyrdom" approach when defending their point of view as well.
    We, in the scientific community, call this a charade and dismiss it.

    Yes, even in the USA this would be illegal.
    Although some may feel you should be able to say whatever you want, you would be wrong. As a society feeds off itself for its strength and can deteriorate with its own weaknesses.
    This should be apparent and obvious to anyone whom has taken part in a society.

  21. Re:Bing vs. Google on Bing More Effective Than Google? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Well, that is interesting because I often find what I need on the first page of Google searches, sometimes second page if it is an odd issue I am working with.

    This of course is related to the fact that I use 0% of Bing searches.

    What? The information I provided is just as relevant as the unsupported article or reply regarding these two.

    Independent statistics are required, otherwise its a he said she said scenario.

    Cox has its own redirection.

    Easily fixed by putting in 4.4.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 into your DNS servers.

    Republicans dont care if Bush started it, in their eyes anything Obama does is bad, even if it is along their beliefs or party lines, or what Fox News said they should do previous to him actually doing it.

    Troll me if you want, but I am tired of this back and forth nitpicky. Get the fuck off your high horse and look at the individual, not the party.
    Know your history, party centric nations oriented in pride and blind following lead to bad things. You should all know the wars that were fought, and continue to fight where the opposing nation was based on this.
    We are USA, we are individuals coming together for a common goal, to live free from oppression and tyranny. Yet governanced by the majority (supposed to be). Remember your individuality before you "tow the line".
