No, but he did say that condoms do not stop the spread of STD's. Religion stopped science in old Arabia, and may very well do so in USA too. Just look at stem cells.
As long as those are the good drugs, you are right. You know, the ones that kills you because of improper testing, not the ones that get you high (in reasonable doses). The good, taxable, kind.
Its time for the Republicans to split up into the neo-cons and the conservatives. And then the dems can split up into the semi-socialists and the liberals
Maybe the americans could get a fair and accurate choice, not having to rely on the choice between far-right and center-left.
Will you help me too? I want to learn riding a bicycle to work, just like anyone else who is hip and cool. The route to my job is 50km long each way, and in the winter the temperature drops to -25C. I have yet to see a hydro refill station with my own eyes, and because of the price of electricity here, an electric car would be way too expensive.
Not everyone even gets the chance to be environmentally friendly, and without a car, I would be fscked.
I think this passage leads to the pole, but not out on the other side. But that is of course the situation right now. Who knows how it will look in 5 years.:)
We have some similarities. I get paid a lot to stay away from parties. Nothing spices up a party less than a one-way discussion of the practical implementations of recursion in todays programming world. Or a long rant about how reality is just a term to the describe our view of the current metaverse.
I am the cold sore of the human social organism.:)
"But you conclude correctly, our brains have advanced far enough that we are not shackled by our instincts. I'd just love to see if we use our brains well (for stuff like this anti-ageing thing) and don't end up blowing ourselves in the long run."
Have you ever watched a beautiful woman pass a group of smart guys on the street. I think there is still some instinct in us;) Yes, I get your point. Yes, I agree. Yes, I am somewhat of a pedantic bastard.
Probably the most coherent and insightful post I have ever seen on/.
I have a IQ in the range of 135-145. And I'm obsessive compulsive in the way that I like numbers that is a product of 4 or 5, or is a result of 2^x something. I really like 64;) Whenever I sit down in a quiet place, my mind wanders to the extreme parts of existentialistic visions.
Even tho I scored high on the "test" a bit higher up in this thread, I'm probably not an Aspergers child. I just think too much to fit in with those that don't think at all.
Some small degree of Aspergers with a little mix of OCD fits the description perfectly.:) Social withdrawal and discomfort is a trait of both, while pedantic behavior and odd habits is a sign of OCD.
But like you said, does it really matter? I guess 4/5 of the population could be diagnosed with something if we just look close enough.:p
Or does everyone have to "fit in" these days? Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated. Heh.
Look at todays youth, and their clothing and music taste. Its much more diverse than 60-70 years ago.
I've known quite a few people that might be considered "a bit off", but as long as they are not hurting others, where's the harm in treating them as eccentrics or oddballs and just accepting them for how they are? The problem is when they start hurting themselves. As long as the chance of making their lives a bit better exists, it would be wrong not to try. Of course they must be willing to accept the help at some point. You cant force anyone to better themselves. I too have had problems with anxiety and depression, but i always snap out of it after a period of time. Not all of us are that lucky, and need help. For some people, suicide seems like the only way out. If we can show them another path, I really think we should.

They both killed Iraqis and made a whole lot of money on the suffering of others?
But I kid, I kid. Saddam never had nukes, while King George wants to use them.

The captcha was "oppress". I'm scared now..

If the rootkit is designed to "protect" something that is covered by the DMCA, yes.
They might be duchebags, but at least they put on a damn fine circus.
"Hey waiter, more bread please."
I think bin Laden was rooting for Bush.
Gave him lots of free support from the Arab world.

Have you even seen Futurama?

A one-eyed babe will try to "chip" you, and you end up being a space delivery boy with lots of adventures.
Uneducated slob.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
Just be glad I didn't start off a rant about girls and parasites.

My 2 cents.
"Thank you for filling out this questionnaire.
Your Aspie score: 151 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 55 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie"
Damn.

Yes. As long as he doesn't release other peoples GPL'd code too. Like the code in the cdrtools codebase.

Because a law will come and require this kind of tech in all sets
Heh
In norway, we dont even get $25k cars that is worth the effort.
$35k is about the cheapest piece of shit car you can get new..
Our people tell the same story.
