I seriously doubt they would be a threat. If anything, they would be destroyed by life here on Earth. We've had millions of years on record of biological warfare. As such, our defenses are just as effective as our offensiveness.
It such a microscopic organism got inside of us, it would be seen immediately as a foreign object and be snuffed out. Eventually, you will just piss out its remains if it hasn't already been converted into some form of food.
Except your missing the point. When Hillary speaks of community, what she really is talking about is "Government". In other words, she believes such important decisions should not be made by the general populous, but rather a select few elected officials to write the rules into law...paid for by our tax dollars.
Hillary is a socialist. It's best to keep that in mind if you favor personal responsibility.
It's the Eds. They've been posting stories that have their own bias embedded into them or totally missing the mark to the article in question. As such, it's the lack of credibility that is moving people away from Slashdot.
While FPS increase scales much better with faster/new GPUs, it still does scale with faster CPUs as well...just not as dramatic. I can only assume these game engines are designed to have the CPU co-process whatever the GPU cannot handle at any given time. Sort-of like a mix of hardware and software graphic rendering I think. At least that's what past and present game benchmarks seem to point to.
But after that false intel on the WMDs in Iraq, I'm willing to bet Osama is "hands off" if he is indeed located there. Remember, he's highly mobile. Even if he was in Iran, by the time everyone in Washington is done bickering, he would have moved on to another country.
Put it to you this way. We are NEVER going to get him. Never never never never...ever! No going to happen.
I really wish they would explain *why* they voted for or against anything. Without an explanation, the voting could easily be seen as partisan (without logic).
2) Blocking emergency calls. Doctors on call, first responders, etc.
In a movie theater? Seriously, society has gotten along just fine before cell phones in the past. If you have an emergency, walk out of the bloody theater and use a land-line from a receptionist or payphone.
Just because there might be a potential problem without a technology doesn't mean that very technology is implicitly granted a *right* to be used.
From a moral standpoint, I agree with you. But if he broke the law, he needs to be punished.
In world where the media can make or break you, the evidence needs to be looked over first before the Whistle Blowing starts. Basically the "Seriousness of the charge over the nature of the evidence" will not fly.
The real reason pot is illegal in the US is because it cuts back on a users economic productivity. It's rather harmless substance, but very harmful to the GDP rate if the masses started smoking it casually...so it's been theorized.
Point is, once the VR experience provides a "holodeck" sense or realism then you will see a level of introversion in society like never before. Why face the real world when you can live our your fantasies as though it was the real thing?
My prediction is that a new law will be passed banning any biological or technological method of providing an "alternate reality".
Muslims all around the world are burning down building and their religious leaders are calling for the death of those who created these cartoons. Ok, they are a radical minority...fair enough.
Want to know what my problem is? I have yet to hear the Ayatollahs (let alone one of them) denounce the violence. Hell, even the local leaders in countries but the US aren't even denouncing it. This would be like Christians getting all upset and threatening death (and committing it in the name of Christianity) and the pope having no comment or denouncing such violence.
My question to you is this. How do you maintain your faith when your religious figures do not denounce such violence for petty cartoon images? If I was you, I might look to another religion for spiritual guidance.
You don't get it. I'm not blogging to make friends or get people to "like" me. I blog to voice my opinion and/or point out factual information.
If you read my posts, I'm anti-politically correct. In fact, I hate political correctness with a passion. PC is for cowards that are afraid of people not "liking" them.
Fuck that. Just be who you are and let the rest stand on it's own. This is a blog, not a personality contest.
When someone attacks the country I love, and know to be doing the correct thing...I will attack them personally. Because a baseless attack on my country is an attack on me.
I stand behind my comments 100%. MOD me down to -5. I'm still proud of my POV!
The problem isn't the perception of our foreign policy, the problem IS our foreign policy.
BULLSHIT!. Just like your sig, your spinless.
The problem is the Islamic community. Always has been. Hell, even the french have threatened to use Nuclear weapons against Iran. That should tell you something.
Of course, with you, it's always blame America first isn't it. Any Slashdot regular knows what you really stand for. You passifist pussy.
Ya, mod me down. But I will never back away from the truth. Your slashdot history can back that up.
It's simple really. The best way to keep an open mind is to make judgements on a case-by-case bases.
Because of the whole "Google China" thing, I side with the goverment. I do NOT want a US corporation providing goods and services used explicitly to prevent freedom.
It was a good job (in regards to my function). It's just that my boss was very short sighted. The way he treated clients led me to believe he could fart and shit all over this world, but what added up in his bank account is what mattered the most.
Clearly, I found out the hard way what he thought of his employees as well.
It's for the best though. Working for such a scumbag isn't in my future. He would have "traded up" to someone cheaper anyways at one point.
If you have asked for a raise and you've been turned down, inform your boss that you cannot continue at the current salary and that you would like to continue working there, but you will be forced to start looking for a new job if you do not get a substantial rase.
Be careful!!! I've been FUCKED OVER playing that song and dance. Last time I asked my boss for a raise, I got declined. Two weeks later he hired another employee as my replacement (a n00b) and then laid me off a week later for some lame excuse.
Point is, if you ask for a raise be prepared to rock the boat. Chances are, you might get thrown overboard for your stupid attempt at a course correction in your career.
Again, they are out of touch. Every Chinese I've spoken with doesn't give a damn about Taiwan. To them, they are just another country. The Chinese just want to live their life free from oppression. The Taiwan issue is only regarded as a government problem, not an issue with the Chinese citizens.
Here is the problem at heart. Capitalism is winning the hearts and minds of the Chinese over communism. As such, the CCP is very jealous and is grasping at straws to maintain power and control via micro-management solutions. Yes, the CCP is imploding.
Now excuse me while your captain obvious takes a break.
Slashdot Mirror
Considering that the vast majority of people are complete idiots
I agree. But you want to know something? I support their right to be idiots! It's called freedom.
I want the government out of my own personal fucking affairs...including *my* right to be an idiot at times.

If you thought those were expensive, check out what Coach has to offer!
He could be....in Iran. *gasp*

Quick! Someone get "W" a video i-pod. Then we can tell the MPAA to f-off. :D

DUDE!!! This this is Slashdot. Millions of geeks around the world are out of shape. We can't keep up!
Ohhh the humanity!

Wont happen for the simple fact that it can be hacked by modders in the future. Chances are, it will be in the form of ROM only.

Bzzzt! Wrong. I define myself. We as a society define our nationality.

Clearly, Google is two-faced. Fuck em!
The employees, customers, and community should always come first.
I agree with you 100%. Unfortunatly, that's not how the real world works.
Very true.
