You're right. There was absolutely nothing good about going to war because your pilgrims were being slaughtered. It was an evil, tryannical power-grab that had no justification whatsoever, of any kind. The European Christians should have just said "oh, we can't send pilgrims to the Holy Land that you live in? Well, ok then."
Yeah, it was all about the pilgrims. Not just a land grab by bored European princes, encouraged by Popes who just wanted them to stop killing each other for a while.
That must be why they killed virtually everyone in Jerusalem when they took it (Christians and Jews included). Oh, and sacked Constantinople, that reknowned bastion of pilgrim abuse.
Not that the Moslems acted any better; of course they didn't. But that sure doesn't excuse the Crusades.
Now my point is not whether or not I am correct to be a conservative. My point is that many, many people become more conservative with aging.
Any man who is under 30, and is not a liberal, has no heart; and any man who is over 30, and is not a conservative, has no brains.

Software RAID gets progressively slower the more drives you add, due to the system needing to duplicate the commands out to each drive (this is especially bad with RAID-5). For a home setup it would probably be OK.
It's hard to get enough SATA ports for 3TB of space without buying a decent card, though, and if you do that you might as well buy one with good hardware RAID on it. IMO.
Choice of OS is almost completely irrelevant unless you need to connect to a SAN or something, in which case driver availability will be more important than particular OS features. If you're using a PC with SATA drives, I would suggest one or more 3Ware RAID controllers for driver maturity and performance.
Contrary to the Bush administration's bungling of the Iraq situation (which is what I assume you are alluding to)
Nope, Iraq was more than happy to sell oil. They were trying to work out a way to sell it in Euros, rather than dollars, which is probably one of the real reasons the US is in there, but certainly they weren't withholding any.
The post September 11 environment in the United States was very intolerant of states like Iraq that had already demonstrated a willingness to simply invade another country and claim it.
More like, the post Sept 11 environment in the US was particularly helpful for Bush and Co. to proceed with an invasion they had already planned. Iraq had SFA to do with Sept 11 and everyone knew it. Not that Saddam didn't need his ass kicked, but then that's true for half the leaders in the world.
However, with the martyrs that run religious states like Iran, there is not such concept holding them back. Ending their own lives and the lives of others (millions if possible) only mean greater glory for them in heaven.
No arguments here. I just don't think you have the means to effectively conquer them. Iran would be 10 times the fight Iraq has turned into. Israel will have to start bombing nuke plants in Iran pretty soon and that's going to cause some major problems, too.
Now, if neither one of them is allowed to carry a concealed weapon, no guns, much less chance of death for either of them.
Because people who want to commit murder are reknowned for thinking, hey, wait a minute, I'm not legally allowed to carry a gun. Maybe I shouldn't commit murder today.
And abuse husbands are SO disinclined to simply beat their ex to death, or stab them, or whatever.
In the same way, the soul, the immaterial part, loaded and resident in a physical body determines the personality, the mind if you will of a human. Exactly how and where the interaction of the soul/mind occurs in our physical bodies is still largely shrouded in mystery, although there are some tantalizing clues. Denying the existence of the soul is akin to denying the existence of the software in a compute
That's an interesting theory, but it doesn't explain how people's personality is so easily manipulated by chemicals and by damage to or electrical stimulation of the brain.
The fact of the matter is that it is Congress' right to make laws as long as they don't conflict with Constitutional limitations. The Fourth Amendment still protects us from unreasonable searches and seizures. It is by no means unconstitutional for Congress to mandate that telecommunications systems enable future wiretapping if it becomes necessary.
According to a report issued by the Administration Office of the United States Courts, state and federal courts authorized 1,710 interceptions of wire, oral, and electronic communications in 2004, an increase of 19 percent over intercepts approved in 2003 and the greatest number ever authorized in a single year. Federal officials requested 730 intercept applications in 2004, a 26 percent increase over the number requested in 2003. No wiretap applications were denied last year.
The Administrative Office of the United States Courts has reported that state and federal courts authorized 1,442 interceptions of wire, oral and electronic communications in 2003, an increase of 6 percent over interceptions authorized in 2002. The agency also reported that federal officials requested 578 intercept applications in 2003, a 16 percent increase over those requested in 2002. No wiretap applications were denied last year.
Because the alternate roots always have either a) loons or b) incompetent amateurs running them. They do stupid things, they have internal fights, and their systems don't work.
I used to do stuff with OpenNIC. Trying to get kids with DNS servers running on their ADSL connections to do things Right is impossible. The loons running most of the other alternate root systems are even worse.
People use the ICANN root because it works, and because outside of a small group of hand-wavers, there really isn't that big a demand for change. People seem to like giving up control to lawyers; I don't understand it myself, but it seems to be so.
I'd mod you funny, but I'm almost convinced you're serious.
Any country that believes that crap usually ends up with their "workers" standing in line trying to buy the only potato in the city, and never actually doing a whole lot of work.
Also, Red Hat continues to give back to the community. All their tools are open-source. They continue to acquire good projects and open-source them (GFS, Sun's Directory server, etc).
The day I see a successful SUSE rebuild project, I'll consider paying Novell for SUSE. That will mean that Novell is making at least their package sources available to the community, like Red Hat has done all along. Until then, Red Hat will get my clients' support dollars.

In Vancouver, a device that prevents running red lights would be far more effective in reducing casualties.
Oh, and a road test for new drivers that actually requires them to demonstrate that they can drive, not just bribe the tester.

2.0 has been fine for a long time. The only potential issue is with the threaded MPM and PHP, but using the forked server should be the same as 1.3.
I think they have things like http://www.zimbra.com/ in mind.

Saddam Hussein(who probably hasn't killed as many people as Bush
The Iran-Iraq war alone killed over a million people. You should probably diversify your own reading.
Probably right after apt gets the ability to ask for your credit card number. The one with a limit high enough to buy a house.

It is *very* mature and very stable
It has all the greatest tech before everyone else
These statements are contradictory. Pick one.

And then the US could invade them and make them start pumping it again ...
I bet the kid knows next to nothing about history
And that makes him different from most high school graduates (or, honestly, most university graduates) how, exactly?
Wow 4 whole GB of data. I have more than that in PostgreSQL on my workstation at work, never mind the hundreds of GB in our production db.

If you think you're getting gouged now, you're really going to hate driving 5 years from now.
Where does that leave *NIX whose basic commands can do terrible damage silently?
I think you still missed the point. Those commands do what you told them to do, not something different and unexpected.
I'd really like to know how you are supposed to edit stored procedures without programs like phppgadmin
.sql files in subversion. Edit them with favourite text editor. Run script to apply to database. Commit when done.
My workplace stores them in

Damned good thing forged ID is impossible to get. I'm sure the pre-paid phone salesmen are experts in spotting forgeries, if not.

Goes to doctor: Doctor says, you need an MRI
Waits 5 months to be able to get an MRI
MRI results go to doctor: Doctor says, you need a specialist
Waits 4 months to see a specialist
Specialist says: you need an updated MRI
He's currently a week into an expected 6 month wait for another MRI
