Me, too, but watch for those which are still raised in fields but have been bred for size and appearance. I've had enough of these damn foods which taste like cardboard.
Even in nature, larger fruits and vegetables(of the same variety) generally less taste as their surgar production is spread out of the larger area. A good example I have is with tomatos. When water and sun are plentiful, they grow HUGE, but have virtually no taste. Now when you have just enough water to GROW the tomatos(not big, just grow), you will get tomatos that are about 75-50% of the size of thier "brothers" but all that sugar is stored in a much more compact area... and mmmm mmm good.
True, it's easy to break. But I was thinking in more/. terms: "It has DRM... regardless of how easy it is to break, it has DRM." I mean, look at iTunes. They even TELL you how to break it and people still don't like apple for selling "DRM Crippled" Music.
well, with the itunes versions being on DRM lockdown, and dvds being able to be played on any dvd player they (B&M retailers) should market against itunes and the likes by mentioning that fact. Join us in the fight against DRM people! I would pay an extra dollar per DVD if they would help fight them.
Silly me, I thought that DVD's were DRM'd(encrypted). But a fallicous argument never stopped the US Consumer from listening.
I never said that I was a Republican. I only told what happens to someone who calls themself one. I've never seen a systematic oppression of blacks in America today.
If anything, I see that the biggest oppression in America today is the oppression of ideas that MIGHT offend SOMEONE. The oppression of Religious Expression, the oppression of any dissenting view from white man to the words of a black man(instantly labeled a bigot by the NAACP and ACLU), the oppression of wealthy by taxing their income more than someone who "works for a living". There are many injusticies; it's just that threat of leaglized extortion and forced bankruptcy at the whim of someone who is "offended" has suppressed these injustices that never see the light of day.
The evidence I have is only what I saw with my own eyes growing up in an "impoverished" area. 20-yr olds popping out the 5th child on welfare, getting their children certified as mentally challegned, anything and everything to get more money from the government. I'ts also very telling when someone on welfare can afford a house, two cars, tv, cable, cell phone, and good quality food. Most hard working people I know have a hard time affording all that.
I started working at 15. It galls me to this day to see where my tax dollars go. I have SEEN what instituionalized welfare does to a populace. I get ANGRY when someone that I'm supporting with my tax dollars says that I (as a white male) OWE them something for what someone did to someone else decades ago. All I see welfare as now is a way for Democrats to get elected. In my hometown and surrounding area, the ONLY way to get elected is to say your a democrat. If the only three words you say when you step into town is "I'm a Republican"(or any party other than Democrat), you're immediately labeled as a bigot and get shouted down when you open your mouth on anything. When people actually have to start WORKING again (and not suing cause someone HURT YOUR FEELINGS), you'll see America start to thrive again. Until that day, we're doomed to a life of the actual WORKING class supporting all the fscktards that are mooching the system that was designed to help people because they feel that they are OWED something.
The only people OWED anything in the US were the actual Slaves, Native Americans, and their immediate children. Other than that, shut the hell up, get off you @ss, and get a fscking JOB!
And before anyone gets all up and arms about no work available, etc etc... That's just BS. I've done jobs from unloading trucks at walmart, hoeing weeds out of cotton fields, all the way up to my job now in a high tech company designing test software. The main problem is people have gotten this level of "pride" from somewhere that is unjustified. The only pride ANY American should feel is in a job well done. If you've ever not taken a job because "I'm too good for that" then you've never been really in need of anything. And in that case, I wish you would do the right thing and stop stealing from people who ACTUALLY need the money.
Next time, take your theory of how we should be kind to other people and shove it. Until you actually take the time to add up how much of your money goes into the biggest vote-buyer in US histroy, see where that money goes, then you can be suspect of my opinion. And I'm not talking about a 5 day trip down to the "impoverished region", I'm talking about spending 18 years in an area where you are immediately looked down upon, called a racist, and are told you OWE someone more money.... Just because you are white.
No, the majority of impoverished areas in America today can thank the bastardization of the welfare system to the point that people make a better living having babies and sitting on their butts than they would if they get off said butt and work for a living.
Most likely, it's not a GPL violation. There are several instances of proprietary "linux" kernels out there. Monta Vista being a prime example. They call it linux but in reality, the Glibc and many other core portions have been redeveloped from scratch with a focus on size, stability, and the etherial "Carrier Grade Linux" Standard. You then compile a kernel source using the new libraries and voila... proprietary kernel. It's not that they have taken the linux kernel and won't relase the source. To the contrary, they more than happily point you at kernel.org. All that is truely propietary are the libraries with which the kernel is built.
Our doctors who give time to under-developed nations...
It's all our fault...
Our soldiers who free entire nations and stop genocidal wars (bosnia, iraq, and hopefully darfur.
It's all our fault...
Those people in the WTC deserved to die that day because they were making a living to support their family
It's all our fault...
We support our (and other countries') downtrodden with social programs that drain the wallets of our middle class
It's all our fault...
It's time for you arrogant people who think America is a bad country to wake up. Learn about what our country does. If you honestly think America is a flawed nation. Get into politics and do something about it, choose better representatives, or shut the hell up and get the fuck out. I'm sure Venezula would welcome you with open arms.
Equating a legal foreign intelligence activty with Nazi Germany. If there is a sign of fascism in the US, I find it to be with the mud-slinging, sue happy people who do anything they can to quash dissent. It has now come to the point in America where if you don't believe the same way as someone of a more liberal persuasion, you are an idiot, bigot, xenophobe, racist, and any other derragotory and inciteful words. Oh, and then you have to mount a 10's of thousands of dollars defense to prove you were right. At that point, the only satisfaction you have for that money is being right.
Save America: Quite whining, suing, and bitching. Get a Job. Someone on welfare needs you to support them!
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Well, he's using his powers granted in the constitution... so I'd say he's following up on that oath.
ure, but you are assuming that this warrantless spying program is not being used otherwise. I have seen no evidence to prove either and neither have you. That's the whole issue here.
Firstly, do you have the same security clearance of the Senate Intelligence Comittee members or of the President? If not, you won't see the evidence for which you're looking for another 50 or so years. Congress was informed and they deemed it OK. Only after it was revealed in an illegal leak of classified information and contorted by the Media did it become a probelm.
Indeed. It's clear to me that the current administration has pretty much forgotten the importance of human intelligence, instead relying on high-tech gadgetry (and, of course, fear) to protect the nation.
Actually, you can place the blame for lack of Human INT on Clinton. Bush Sr. is a former CIA director and has a darn good idea of how valuable human int is. Clinton installed barriers between the CIA/FBI, cut back our foreign intelligence activites, and pretty much though little of the CIA in general. That is if you don't coun't contracting on the assasination of bin laden (this is actually strictly against US law).
I'm sure that Bush Sr. impressed upon his son the importance of Human int... but we can't know that for sure. Besides, it takes years(sometimes decades) to develop good Human INT.
Personally, I am not that sure I'd want anything with nuclear fuel (such as some satellites have these days) being accelerated to mach 23 on or near land, let alone trusting the casing to withstand 2000g. Is this a solution looking for a problem?
Of course if they do create casings that are able to withstand the forces, we've solved the problem of nuclear waste disposal. We charge anyone with nuclear waste a fee and we launch it into the largest incenerator withing 1 AU. Our friendly neighborhood star, Sol.
Um, can't the energy be released as something else besides heat? I realize the vast majority of it is, but other types of energy are released, like light energy from the LEDs, mechanical energy from the fans, and radioactive energy from the monitor. (just kidding on the last one.)
Well, Since it's silicon, it all gets disipated as heat. If it was GaAs on the other hand, it would glow a pretty blue-white.:)
Simple... create an account that's only for the kids. Lock down the administrative account with a good password. And install silent monitoring uitilites. Anytime you alert a child to a lock, that's when they aim to defeat it.
When you get into their teens, you're mainly an advisor. They will do what they want to do, you just need to be able to protect them. And obviously... Children really DON'T have a right to privacy. Sure, I give mine all the privacy I can, but if I'm responsible for you, privacy is a Priveledge.
