Obvious, but it doesn't explain why not all people who have hate become terrorists. My other message was mocking that. Sure, we might be able to figure out that there's a lot of Muslim terrorists. But that doesn't tell us a damn thing, because not all Muslims are terrorists. Not even a significant fraction of them are terrorists.
I actually see a much better correlation. All of the terrorist acts that you list were carried out by people who have some sort of gripe with the government of the US and its allies.
If I were a terrorist, (and I'm not saying that I'm not a terrorist) I'd use a ground burst rather than an air burst. Ground bursts are dirtier (more fallout). It might not kill as many people or destroy as much area, but it will pollute a much wider area than an air burst.
So, no need to worry much about planes delivering nukes. You're right on target with the Ryder truck thing.
I'd think that a governmental agency such as the DOHS wouldn't react fast enough to either counter security threats, or to allow MS to keep Windows up to date. If the DOHS got involved, it's be another 10 years before MS would be allowed to release their next OS. Please don't get them involved where there might exist a more efficient solution.
I'm not sure why you're going off on me. Perhaps someone stole your dildo? I know that 256 + 128 + 2 = 386. That was the ENTIRE point of my joke. To quote the original person that I was replying to:
In fact, I would have been majorly shocked if it wasn't some reasonable amount as 386MB. No useful modern PC should come with less than 512MB and should really have 1GB. If someone doesn't need 512MB of memory, then they don't need that pentium 1Gz+ either.
See? He said 386MB and I was jabbing him a little on it. Now, don't you feel like an ignorant little fuckstick? You are my bitch. My little bitch asshole, filled with my hot cum.
That's completely unreasonable, because it would require someone to buy a 256 MB module, a 128 MB Module, and a 2 MB module. What the hell were they thinking?

Galileo? You mean the guy who was told to STFU or die? Shocking, the lies that Christians will tell in order to dupe the masses.
I suppose that you're going to tell me that Bruno was a devout follower of the Church, and that's why he was burned to death for refusing to STFU about the same things that Galileo said.

It would go like this: you are a heavily armed mercenary holding a shotgun. You walk into a room filled with demons holding some hostages. You start blasting away with your shotgun. Every time you kill a demon, you hear an angelic chorus singing "Halleluiah" and "Onward Christian Soldiers".
If you kill a hostage accidentally, the entire game freezes and a fire and brimstone preacher comes on screen lecturing you about how you are going to hell for breaking the 5th commandment. The Christian Game Company is automatically notified via e-mail and within minutes a prayer counsellor is made available for you to call on an 800 number. You call up, and you pray, and you cry, and you pray some more. It's a little like church, except you can't wait to leave to play a computer game or something. OK, so it's EXACTLY like church. When you're finished with your phone call, the prayer counsellor sends a message to your PC via e-mail that unlocks the game so you can continue to play.
I for one can't wait to play it.

Interesting, my ass.
1) Jenkins is not in Japan, he's in Indionesia, where he's safe because we have not extradition treaty with them.
2) He's very sick, and may have to go to Japan for treatment, or die. Japan has said they will nab him there.
3) When you say "returning" to Japan, don't forget to include the fact that his last visit was before he defected to NK. His recent trip to Indionesia is the first time he left NK since his defection in 1965.
4) It was 39 years ago that he defected, not 20.
5) It's not a medical checkup, it's for possible life saving action. Quite a difference.
OK, so you're saying that I can just compile the thing on one step, produce an executable file, and then at my bash prompt I can just run the file (just like I do right now with my C++ compiler)?
$> foo.c# (whatever c# source code is called) $> ngen.exe -o foo foo.c# (compiled with ngen.exe) $> foo
hello world!
Is there any c# compiler that compiles down to regular i386 code, like gjc is capable of? The language looks very interesting, but I'm not interested in yet another virtual machine.
You have the right to remain silent, everything you say will be run through a compiler with the options -g, -wall, --pedantic, and --posix-me-harder set.
I will just say that our Martian defenders protecting the red planet from the Earthling invaders will be looking forward to the increased amount of target practice.

Robber: OK MISTER. You have two choices: shot or stabbed. Which is it?
Blue Trane: Well Mister Robber, what you are presenting to me is a logical fallacy known as a "false dichotomo". It is a fallacy, because in this situation there are actually several options besides the two you gave. For example, I could plead for my life, or I could...

I wonder about the global warming that this new oil will cause. But on the bright side, if it warms up enough you might not find a nicer place to be than Montreal in January!
I got the term "Porn Creep" from an episode of CSI aired earlier this month. After the episode, I looked the term up on the web, and there were no other references.
Now, if you google the term, you'll see several, all pointing back to CSI. It appears that the term is a new one, invented by the CSI writers, for this imaginary "problem".
At the very least, it's an interesting example of a brand new term springing into popular usage, with a traceable etymology. I expect that the term will enter into much wider usage in the months to come, because the myth is widespread, and because porn is in the news.

They can move to Debian, because it's not a menu for installing updates. It's a prompt that says do you want the updates (Y/N).
:-)
If that counts as a menu, they could just leave off the part where they list the (Y/N) option.

I agree completely. When you use the word "F*" it doesn't do anything for humor. I much prefer to use the word "FUCK" instead of "F*". Much funnier!
