Your position would look better if you at least tried to understand the scientific method before trying to wail on it. As you clearly don't, you just come off like an ignorant religious twat who can't stand to think of their chosen delusion as specious. Hubris at its finest. It must be upsetting for God to see the brain he gave you going to such ridiculous waste. Not that I believe in God. But you do.
How do SSDs figure into that equation? Aren't people trying to squeeze out as much GB/$ as possible? Or does that stop happening when Linux gets insulted;)
I really, really hope you are joking! The long day theory doesn't work at all, as it requires each day to be a different length. It's a blatant example of lazy thinking.
Yes, clearly does work that way. I can't remember the last time there was a shootout between Philip Morris and BAT over who gets the right to sell cigarettes in JuÃrez. You are arguing that prohibition is better then regulation, which is clearly bullshit, as we saw with the US in the 30s. Prohibition drives a market underground, away from the law, and empowers the most vicious people with wealth and influence beyond compare. The products they sell, due to their illegality, are often low-quality, and can be dangerous due to said quality. Does that sound familiar? If you are complaining about the effects of the drugs being sold, then that is a matter of public education. Again, you just have to look to the Netherlands or Portugal for great demonstrations on how that is clearly a matter for healthcare providers (oh, we're talking about the US, so forget that - there's no money in preventing abuse), information campaigns, and improvements in the quality of life for the poorer people (as happy people tend not to be addicts).
Comparing the regulated drug market in the west to blood diamonds in poor Africa is fucking ridiculous.
But yeah, it's just easier to say "Fucking brown bastards! Let them kill each other!" and be done with it.
Please stop being short-sighted and ask yourself how people get to the point where they're killing themselves over drugs. Notice how you don't get massive cartel action in well-developed first-world countries where the vast majority of people are fed, watered, clothed, and healthy. Even you can put two and two together and get it right. Don't let me down;)
One side has evidence, one side does not. Or, say, do you want research money split 50/50 between evolutionary biologists and creation biologists? Is that more fair to you? Science does not work that way - if you can show your work is based on established facts, and has a high likelihood of furthering your field of study, you get grant money. Currently *all* the evidence points to AGW, and the Earth going through climate change is so deftly demonstrated rational people don't question it any more. Just as most people don't question gravity, or where babies come from. Pumping money into researchers who are arguing against supported evidence with no evidence of their own is not good for anyone, which is why anti-AGW folks don't get as much. It's one-sided for a reason. You just don't like the reason.
Yeah, but when you have millions of them in close proximity, those farts and burps mount up. The point is they don't do that in nature - their massive herds are man-made, and not exactly great for anyone (the animals included).
I agree entirely. Room-temperature semiconductors, however, will change this and every field extensively.:)
I'm sure standardisation of battery packs could be sorted out. GE's electric vehicle had a great (albeit limiting, I'm sure) layout where the batteries were stored solely at the base of the vehicle, where they could be easily accessed by mechanical means.

You can easily run older versions of IE in XP virtual PCs on Windows 7 - you can even download the XP image from Microsoft. On my web development machine, I have IEs 6, 7, 8, & 9, all running as the only version of IE on that machine (be it virtual or otherwise). Each browser runs as normal - a window on your desktop, even though it's actually running on a virtual machine. It's really useful. It's also included in the price of some flavours of Windows 7. So, the only extra cost of running any version of IE is, at most, minimal, and if their licensing already covers it, free.
It's like the difference between the number of "man hours" a task takes to complete, and the actual time taken to complete. More CPUs = more men = less time the task takes.
The Germans also used women ground controllers. A funny story: when the RAF used to interfere with broadcasts on Luftwaffe channels (using "tame" native German speakers) their operations usually ended in German-speaking lady operators arguing with each other, all trying to convince the confused airmen they were a real Luftwaffe controller.
Christ. There is no contradiction as they don't penalise other sites for not allowing themselves to be rendered in an iframe. If you have a site where clickjacking is a real threat to operations (as Google does, what with them being the #1 search engine, and having a very popular single-sign-on mechanism), you should have the option to disable the site being rendered in a frame. How the fuck is allowing others to do exactly what you do a contradiction?
There is *nothing* stopping anyone from implementing iframe-busting on their sites. It won't hurt their search ranking. They are merely showing that if a site is a large target for malicious scripts, it makes incredible sense to stop it from being ran in an iframe.
Hint: There is a perfectly reasonable technical explanation for Google not allowing other sites to host their sites in iframes. Think about it for a minute. Seriously. It's rather easy to figure out. "Good" and "Evil" don't even feature in their reasoning.
Awesome logic, sparky. You are a credit to other knee-jerk reactionaries, spouting bullshit about things they don't know, and making ridiculous comparisons which only serve to highlight your complete lack of grasp of a subject. Well done. Bravo.
Sorry, is that supposed to prove something? I mean apart from your ignorance of Germany, of course, which seems to be the cornerstone of your argument.
Hint: I live in Germany. I've read the law regarding Swastikas, and I've seen the way they are treated, which is perfectly fine with me - when used correctly, as in not a symbol for people to get behind and wreak devastation and murder upon millions, they are used frequently and without censoring or censuring. I don't watch Anime, like most Germans, so it's not that great a deal. Also I have the internet, like most Germans (and with better speeds for less money than most places), so I can access any Anime I want to, and the police won't come knocking, as they don't give a shit about that. And you can't track people by running TOR nodes, unless you are talking specifically about an exit node, and even then only when people using it send their personal information through it in cleartext, the same thing that any ISP could do. Big fucking deal. Your arguments have changed greatly since you first made them, which is a good indicator you are most likely so full of shit your ears are sponsored by Charmin.

Not too far off the truth - Simon Baron Cohen is Sacha Baron Cohen's cousin.
When one side is scientific, and the other is not, it is the scientific way.

No, but the US surely as fuck has a lot to do with the situation down in Mexico. You can see that, right?

It was a loan, so it will be repaid, and with interest.
Ned Kelly wasn't that bad...
On average, for the whole hour - Sir was not within 10% of the speed limit for a good part of that hour, so Sir is fucked.

He's running LogMeIn, so that is not an issue.
