well, even in the casks, the rooms that they store them in get pretty darn warm (in excess of 150 degrees F, IIRC), so even that would be enough to set off alarm bells in most people.
walmart did a similar thing in my town a few years back. they bought out the Wolco store, then closed it down citing "poor business projections" (BS. the store had been profitable under several names for 20 years).
the store staff was unionized.
yet, just 3 years later, they built a whole new building and opened a Walmart store, with a non-union workforce.
because A BOOK (written thousands of years ago, by various authors that may or may not have existed, which is not likely still in the same form as it was written in) says so! and thats the only reason they need to say its wrong.
i certainly hope you are right. most people seem to be unaware of the massive advancement of diesel engine tech that has been happening over the past couple decades other in Europe.
about the only diesel powered things most people see are either farm machinery or semi trucks, with the occasional Jetta TDI, which most people don't even know is a diesel (i did a little random quiz among people i know and only 2 out of 10 knew it was a diesel!)
One of the problems with diesel in the states is that it's still higher in sulphur than in the EU. California is improving the regulations and it will likely be copied across the US. Hopefully this will change matters.
i belive that biodiesel solves that problem, as AFAIK, biodiesel is naturally low sulfer.
The US funded the Taliban and trained al-qaeda and suddenly they act as if terorism is a bad thing?
The CIA promoted terrorism, US foreign policy promoted terrorism and when the tards in the White(wash)house have made amends for that, there's a chance we can talk about non-tangible assets.
yes, but terrorism is only evil if it is against them, regardless of any reasons.
i personally think concern over the controller is warrented. the controller is the first thing i look at in a gamr system. i don't care it has 40 quadrillion teraflops of processing power in it. i care if the controller is comphorable and easy to use without having to look down at it.
this would be the reason why i hate the Playstation's (the controllers are too fracking small and give me sore hands. even the aftermarket ones are too damn small.) and i love the gamecube (comphy and and differantly shaped and sized buttons are a great idea.) and the original (huge) xbox controller (i'm beginning to feel like i'm the only one who likes that controller.)
then the next concern is "are the games good?" if there aren't any good games, why bother?
then finally the power of the system itself and the graphics and such then enters into my sphere of thought.
well, this is pretty much a solution to 1/3 of the problem.
one of the parts is getting the raw materials (the vegetable oil or whatever they want to use) as there simply isn't really enough available land (land that isn't being used for growing food) to be able to supply anything near the current demand. even if they use waste oil (which is already used in other industries such as soap and cosmetics) and waste animal fats, that still won't come close. but even just 10% of total consumption would make a good difference in things.
another is getting oil companies to adopt it, as I'm pretty sure that its still presently more profitable to pump oil outta the ground and refine and sell it, especially at the current prices of oil and gas, which as far as anything I've seen, is way out of wack of the costs of production.
and there might also be a 4th third in the whole fact that most people in the US (and pretty much the entire continent, for that matter) still don't seem to like diesel engines, and think that they're still the messy, smelly, smokey engines of 30 years ago.
yes, but google's betas, by and large, tend to be very close to complete software with few bugs, and people seem to assume that ALL beta software is like that.
its more a problem with the people rather than the companies.
it could also be a problem with the whole apple "it just works" image.
1. the shouting bit, if it was done repeatedly over a long period of time could constitute criminal harrasment and they could press charges. the sign thing could also qualify, but i'm not entirely sure, as that would often depend on local bylaws regarding signs on property, though in my town, that kind of sign would get you a decent fine.
2. the "waggling his junk" bit, they could file indecent exposure charges, or if that persisted, sexual harrassment charges could be filed
3. i'm pretty sure that they can seek recourse over that through civil courts over that.
I'm going to start an Anti-GLBT guild. You think my guild should be allowed?
sure, go ahead. free speech is a two-way street, so long as you don't promote illegal actions, such as encouraging people to firebomb the houses of gay people.
but i agree with you that the rights that exist in the real world aren't necessarily there in the game. the game is blizzard's property, so to speak, and they can kick anyone they happen to feel like or disallow whatever speech they want (in theory), but they should weigh their decision carefully if they decide to take action, as there are many other MMORPGs out there and people can just jump ship if they don't like where things are going.
I really think that the money should be put towards getting things on the lower end of stuff, like sustainable food supplies, clean water, medical care, and other basic human necessities before we start worrying about getting them high-tech stuff.
but on the actual topic, there is a lot of unnessesary stuff floating around, but a little knowlage can strip most of that out.

well, assuming that the average Mexican school's Spanish program is comparable to the average American school's English program, i can certainly see that being possible.
or it could be that different dialects of Spanish were being used, and thus the difference there would be enough to royally screw up things.
Slashdot Mirror
its not that English will no longer exist, its that it will change so significantly, that what we've written will no longer be recognised.
compare old English (around year 1000) to modern English. a good deal of change. then multiply that change by a factor of about 15.
well, even in the casks, the rooms that they store them in get pretty darn warm (in excess of 150 degrees F, IIRC), so even that would be enough to set off alarm bells in most people.
well, being as they tend to be recruiting people who you would never expect to be terrorists, i would say that would be semi-likely.
Sure, anything you can hear, you can copy, but if you want to copy it, it's probably easier just to download it off a P2P network anyway.
well, you're right. but this method would be preferable to those that have moral issues (all 3 of them) with downloading music off P2P.
yes, well, i'm Canadian and we tend to use British spellings for some things. and French spellings also, for that matter.
i'm fairly certain that inflamable is a stronger term than flamable.
flamable means something will burn
inflamable means it will BURN

remarkable, no?
anything you can hear, you can copy. though i would wonder about the quality of the sound (32 kbps=not real great sound no matter what format you use)
a 404 error?
what they basically do is send the spammers the list and say "don't spam these addresses or else".
if they ignore that and psam the list, they get bombarded.
How is traffic over a LAN easy to spot from outside that LAN, and without permission from the LAN's administration?
that would be why they're threatening the univeristies to install filters so they can spot the traffic.
because A BOOK (written thousands of years ago, by various authors that may or may not have existed, which is not likely still in the same form as it was written in) says so! and thats the only reason they need to say its wrong.
they wouldn't nessesarily have to have it removed. just disabled. simply scan it with a scanner set on higher power and fry the chip.
then it can be removed if the person want it to be removed.

ok, a few things.
1. the shouting bit, if it was done repeatedly over a long period of time could constitute criminal harrasment and they could press charges. the sign thing could also qualify, but i'm not entirely sure, as that would often depend on local bylaws regarding signs on property, though in my town, that kind of sign would get you a decent fine.

You did, though. You deprived the record label of the profit they would have received had you bought the item instead of stealing it.
so she stole at least 185 CDs of music? (assuming $20 per CD and the settlement of $3750.)
that totals to about 2200+ songs. (assuming 12 songs per CD) that's a lot of music.
i think that there likely should be 5 steps
1. Global warming does not exist.
2. Global warming exists but it is not a threat and its not our fault.
3. Global warming exists and it is a threat but it's not our fault.
3. Global warming exists and it is a threat but there's nothing we can do about it, as it's not our fault
4. Global warming exists and it is a threat, it is our fault, and we could have prevented it, but it's too late now.
