your own example of fruit shoots you down, all fruit is transplanted on root stocks and cloned from the same tree's over and over.it's been done this way for hundreds of years with no ill effects, so there's your long term evidence.
not only that but through selective breeding and tigthly run farming you've pretty much been eating the same cow for decades anyway.
also i might add that while each cow has the same DNA, they will be different in many subtle ways influcened by their environment.
And they aren't prohibiting it, just not requiring it which IS free, unlike your own fascist solution of government mandated labels.
I agree to the extent that cruel practices like branding and keeping reasonibly intelligent animals like cows and pigs in very confined spaces shouldn't be allowed (the meat also tastes better if they get to run around), but really how exactly do you get to know that an animal lived a happy life? did you get to talk to the cow before you eat him? did they give it a freaking name or something?
you have to remmeber that many animals just don't give a fuck how they live as long as they get to eat and screw eg. chickens and fish.
haha, so your aware much of the fruit and veg you eat comes from cuttings which are nothing more then clones?
oh, but i only eat organic vegtables i hear you say? hate to break it to you but there's plenty of organic things that are deadly or more so then non organic....
while i have no doubt there were computer systems that would have had issues, the whole thing was over blown beyond all sanity. I have a toaster at home with a y2k compliant sticker
Lots of over priced consultants will charge a fortune to fix a problem we negated years ago, then when the day comes and nothing happens they will claim it's a resounding success.
why must we have to justify privacy? it's obvious to anyone that if a letter isn't addressed to you then it's an invasion of privacy regardless of the measures we take to stop you.
i can tell you from experience that people stay poor through their own stupidity and ignorance.
my earliest memories are of growing up in a trailer park from 4 - 6yo, then moving into a flat when dad got a job and mum did her nursing trainee ship (note all the hard work involved there)
from their they scraped together the money to buy a crappy house and spent the next 20 years bettering them selfs through education and sacrifice.
they never pissed what little money they had up against a wall like everyone else. if your motivated enough you can still gain a decent standard of living.
and i never went into who pays for it (i don't give a flying fuck btw) , your just attempting to deflect my original 2 points that it's NOT a $100 laptop, and i might also add that ALL you detractors failed to tackle my point that the laptops aren't being used for education at all. it doesn't matter if it's a $1 laptop, it's still not cost effective educationif all they do with it is browse porn.
what i'm trying to get at, is that a $250 laptop if a fucking waste of money. get real teachers in and paper + pencil and you might actually teach kids something.
i know you intend to jest there but it's actually the truth. there are plenty of 3rd world students more educated then americans, mostly because they know what it's like to starve in the streets and know the value of an education.
it costs too much and isn't being used in anyway that it keeps being promoted as being. is that clear enough or do i need to start sounding out the words to you?
unfortunately he doesn't go far enough into the core of the problem, which is today's universities are mass producing what employers want, rather then the thinkers of tomorrow.
employers want nothing more then easily replacable drones who come with an easily definable skill set which they can replace when a new buzzword comes along. this is NOT what universities should be pandering to.
"Does IT Matter?" Published in 2003, the article asserted that IT investments didn't provide companies with strategic advantages because when one company adopted a new technology, its competitors did the same."
That the kind of rubbish i've come to expect from business schools.
so fucking what if it's not manager speak compliant? if IT isn't your core business then you shouldn't be worrying about your IT, you should be worrying about your core business.
and in all my years in the IT field i've seen outsourcing fail as many times as i've run into useless in house IT departments. it's all a matter of quality of staff.
As a rule of thumb when looking to outsource, if the person you speak to about the contract is a salesman and not a techie, ditch them right away. also, if your IT department is handling things just fine, don't outsource, dilbert managment style is not funny in real life.
then don't put them up there are priests. I think global warming is one very pointed example of people taking something that isn't even a theory yet and making it a cult.

there are already laws preventing companys making false claims about their products, which is not an FDA issue, can we move on now?

it's a lock in device with nothing that smartphones haven't been able to do for atleast 12 months before it.
2. I've got a few uses for smallish lcd screens, looks like i'll be taking a few home with me!
just because i don't send all my email with 128bit encryption, it doesn't give you or the government the right to read them.

who gives a fuck it's not like any of you are going to get a chance at actual female contact.
correct me if i'm wrong but isn't blue ray (i refuse to go with the stupid spelling fad) better on a technical level anyway?
and i might add to that "dishonoring" falls under shit like not wearing that fucked head gear.
what crack are you smoking that makes you think copper wiring is cheap?
don't worry, the fact that JET FUEL is just as explosive seems to be lost on everyone else....

wait for it, they will find a way to prove it's really apples innovation.
you do understand not many sites pass that test, right?
please give us an example i've a site you've made that does pass.
