Are you saying that the world would have been a better place if Columbine had not happened? Before you answer, remember that Columbine is the pivotal point in our countries history where the populace found out that being a bully could have life threatening backlashes. It is the point that bullying began being seen as a problem.
- Santorum didn't get personal with Savage.
- Savage attacked Santorum by name.
Your claiming that because Santorum also compared thousands of other people to dog fuckers, his comments were better than Savage insulting Santorum specifically? So, the schoolyard bully that goes around punching all of the other kids is ok, but when one kids stands up and bloodies the bullies nose, he is in the wrong because he only hit the bully, and not the other kids? That is some twisted logic.
- Santorum actually expressed himself reasonably civilly. It's his actual opinion that's offensive to Savage, not so much how he said it. Santorum actually (presumably) believes that homosexuality and bestiality are some kind of "crimes against nature".
- Savage did not express himself reasonably civilly by any stretch. He is publicly calling Santorum a piece of filth. With this website he has been spewing a vile and gratuitously offensive insult.
So, you think comparing someone to a dog fucker is not calling someone a piece of filth? You don't think that it is spewing a vile and gratuitously offensive insult? You think that calling someone a dog fucker is expressing themselves civilly? That is some twisted logic.
- When a bullying victim fights back, it is self defense. I have no problem with that.
Obviously not.
- When Savage publicly calls Santorum a piece of filth because Santorum accepts the tenets of Catholicism (which I don't, just FYI), that is not self defense, that's just being rude.
Savage did NOT call Santorum a piece of filth because Santorum accepts the tenets of Catholicism. Savage called Santorum a piece of filth because Santorum sees an entire class of people as subhuman, and has used his position to push laws that harm that class of people. Catholicisms is an excuse, and not a good one. You are making the argument that if you can find a church that condones your activity, it is unfair to criticize that activity, no matter how vile. That is some twisted logic.
Savage could find better ways to express himself.
Given what his expression has accomplished, that seems highly unlikely.
People like you are why Savage was bullied in school. Using Newspeak to change the definition of "bullying" to "The victim fought back." is terrible. Santorum used his position of power to publicly call Savage a dog fucker. To publicly declare that he was subhuman. Savage fought back with an insult of his own. You are now declaring Santorum the victim because you believe that Savage should not have fought back. That as a subhuman, he should have just taken what he deserved.
Santorum used his position as a Senator to call Savage a dog fucker. It might be reasonable to say that Savage got pulled into a name calling argument, but insulting someone who just called you a dog fucker is hardly 'bullying'. Of course, you are probably using the newspeak definition of 'bully'. The one that defines it as "The victim fought back."
You are exactly the type that promotes bullying. You ignore and endorse bullying over and over, and then when the little guy picks up a tool to fight back with, you declare foul. Santorum attacked Savage. He beat him down. He used his Senatorial position of power to call Savage a dog fucker. That's right. Santorum called Savage a dog fucker. You are all for letting that slide when the cool kid does it. As soon as the victim has enough and picks up a 2x4 to fight back with, suddenly name calling isn't fair anymore.
Your position is one of hypocrisy and is in direct support of bullying.
That has always been the way with bullying. Everyone ignores it until the little guy successfully fights back. Then all of a sudden it is a problem that has to be dealt with.
No, DVI or HDMI will produce a vastly Superior picture to a VGA signal when you try to plug it into a monitor that only has HDMI inputs. VGA is counting it's last days.
Exactly. When FX!32 was attempted, they were in an era when no CPU was fast enough to run what people wanted running native. Emulation made a CPU that was too slow to begin with, unusably slow. Even worse, they rolled it out to markets that were pushing the already too slow processors the hardest.
Today, we have a different situation. Today, for most users, CPUs have been more than fast enough for half a decade or more. We are also talking about a use case where the software is less demanding.
It really isn't too late. The world is change, true. Just like when the personal computer was introduced, the winner will likely be the company that shoots themselves in the foot the least times.
The fact that none of the portable OSes have integrated screen sharing clients built in is an indicator that they are all ready to shoot themselves in the foot. A headless server at home with integrated remote desktop would make any one of these portable OSes desktop replacements over night.
No. Legacy compatibility forces zero impact on new versions. Zero. MS has owned a full PC emulator for years. Every single legacy app and legacy device could trivially be run via emulation. MS could start from scratch on every singe version of Windows and have virtually 100% of all legacy software work. There is no need to lock out old software to make available the option of a secure Windows.
The first thing Google should do get Android x86 running up to snuff. They should then package a distribution of Android that runs as an application on Windows, and allows the use of Android widgets on the Windows desktop. Do the same for the major Linux Distros and OSX. While there are some applications that are only suited to the small screen of a phone, and there are some applications that are only suited to the large screen of desktop. The majority of applications are good on both platforms, and it would add huge value to the user while pulling them into the Android ecosystem.
No. You don't own the data. You might be able in a slim case claim that you can look at the data on the drive legally, but all of that data is under copyright of the original poster. At best, you have a legal right to that copy. If you copy that data to a thumb drive, you have broken the law. If you back the data up, you have broken the law.
Return a drive under warranty is in no way a transfer of copyright.
No. You don't prove you had the data and then delete it without knowing what is on it. sending of a directory listing is exactly the kid of thing that will create your small chance of ruining your life. If there is something illegal on the drive, not turning it in to the police would increase your risk by a magnitude.
Exactly. If they decide to use the $5 wrench on you to get you to tell them what you saw, the last thing you want is to NOT be able to answer their questions. In reality, no one is going to ask. Either format the drive, or look to find contact information for the original owner so that they can take it up with Newegg. If there is anything even remotely illegal, just wipe it. Notifying Newegg yourself will do no good. Newegg is fully aware how important it is to wipe refurbished drives. A person who has not been harmed is going to fall on def ears. On the other hand if the person who returned the drive calls up Newegg and complains to Newegg that they were contacted by someone who bought the drive, Newegg will start to take notice. The the person who returned it tells them that it has naked photos of his wife, and demands that Newegg rectify the problem, they will be inconvenienced enough that they will notice their error.
That would contradict the point of his request. The only real answer is the first one given. Don't try to make it what you know. If you want to have skills in a language, learn the language. I could say that I can write code in Machine Code because my because my C compiler outputs machine code, but that doesn't make it true. If DocDyson learns HaXe and compiles to JS, he doesn't know JS he knows HaXe.
His request for a good IDE is a valid one. His request for some good libraries that will smooth the learning curve is valid. A request for libraries that will make JS more like C is not valid, as it will not only prevent him from actually learning JS, but it will be useless in an environment that he doesn't have primary control of. If you want to be competent in JS, you have to learn the JS way.
Maybe it's the head of a new wave on Slashdot. Maybe we will soon see some headlines like "First woman to play Resident Evil 6!", "First woman to buy a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee!", or "First woman fix a toilet at 547 Pine St, Springfield, VA!"

That would have been some good advice for Santorum to take. Once he decided to speak out against anal sex, he invited the subject into his campaign.

Yep. Report what the police want you to report, or get locked out.
My 4G Android phone gets better battery life than my 3G iPhone. The entire article is a Troll.

That would be one way to get to a 'healthy weight'.
