Sorry, but without government there would be no property laws (except maybe those you could enforce with a bat). Without property laws there would be no investment, markets would break down and *BANG* there goes your way of life. Theres definitely a level of too much government, but theres also a level of too little.
What's wrong with experimentation on stem cells from other sources such as chord blood or adult stem cells? Why must we clone human tissue (read: humans) in order to create something we can achieve through other means that won't piss anyone off?
You also brought the Nazis into it somewhere above. You're obviously a frothing-at-the-mouth zealot of some sort. Why do you feel the need to push your views so many times without listening to the responses?
Those who are physically unattractive or ill tend not to reproduce, or have fewer offspring.
I'd agree up until this point. There are plenty of ugly, fat, unhealthy couples having ugly, fat, unhealthy children. My anecdotal evidence (wandering around the local mall...) says theres even more of them than good looking couples.
[1]: If a woman is raped, simply kill the accused rapist, let said woman have the baby.
hmmm
well apart from anything else, can we at least wait until the rapist is convicted as opposed to just accused? Yes? Good. And now, can you get a clue?
Well regardless iof whether SETI is a good idea or not, it is different as they are searching for radio signals, not laser signals, and so wont have the narrow beam problem implied in GPs post.
This is the best sub thread I've read in a long time, keep up the good work you two. Really, its a great read. i think BadAnalogyGuy is winning at this point but Id love to see it swing back again just for the drama.
Surely a punter who pays 1k for a dvd player is fairly serious about their viewing pleasure and would probably opt for hi-def equipment anyawy, rather than an upscaling solution.
I think the upscaling solution is aimed at the person who cant afford the higher end kit.
When you command nearly a third of the market for PCs, you can make your suppliers do almost anything -- including making them sell components to you below-cost, just so they won't lose your business.
... Why wouldn't these suppliers want to lose business that was causing them a loss?
Honestly i kind of understand the point youre trying to make, but you're not the target audience for wheelchair accessability mods are you. I think people in wheelchairs are.
If i was feeling outraged!!! (imk not really, just bored) by your comment, i might suggest that its only a step away from "Personally I think the cost of keeping people in wheelchairs alive far outweighs the benefits"
Then again maybe your joking, in which case I LOL'ed.
(Radio signals also move at c so of course your latency issue is with the quality of the signal, and speed is just a matter of how many you multiplex.)
You realise that part made you sound like an idiot, right? Just checking.
2) I did not do ad hominem. I simply summarized your argument in an unflattering manner in order to attack it. ad hominem is when you attack the person, but perhaps your too stupid to understand that.
Well maybe, but that wasnt the point i was making. I was simply saying that its not as though the British never develop complicated, integrated weapons platforms.

I lol'd. Nice work.
If the next great step is anarchism, then its a step down. I recommend this book, Reinventing The Bazaar, for a good discussion of the issues. http://www.amazon.com/Reinventing-Bazaar-Natural-H istory-Markets/dp/0393323714
Why do you keep spouting this same incorrect position which was addressed (in a response to you) http://science.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=205189 &cid=16751835 way way up the page.

Is this what one of the earlier posters meant by pussification?
You realy think the AvP movie was better than the TombRaider movie?
Seriously... wow
I mean Tomb Raider was hardly a work of art but just... wow
Im tempted to watch the Doom movie just to see of anything can be worse than the AvP movie. I mean it can't be, surely.
You're welcome.
Nice masturbation there. Well done.

He said no vertical scaling

But then im cheap.
I've told you a thousand times before, people sometimes exagerate when they say things.
