But in that article they dismissed sexual intercourse for the probability of getting an STD - this means that a monogamous relationship is just as effective.
Perhaps this study could've been labelled: "Having monogamous relationship and no sex prior to marriage decreases men's probabilities of having prostate cancer". But well, the same could be said about AIDS. But something tells me that this idea will be rejected by the public right away.

Of course, we used our complete benchmark suite and we actually found some programs that were not working properly. Pinnacle Studio Plus 9.4.3 crashed repeatedly. Auto Gordian Knot, which we use for encoding DivX or XviD video, could not start the encoding process because it obviously was not able to access our AVI file. PCMark crashed sometimes right after finishing the compression test.

The problems are due to two processors types that are very different. Although both run at a 2.2 GHz clock speed, the single- core Opteron 248 is based on the 130 nm Sledgehammer design, while the dual-core Opteron 275 is a 90 nm Venice dual- core chip.
These two processors do not only differ in the manufacturing process: Changes to the memory controller have been made during the transition from 130 to 90 nm and SSE3 extensions were added. Opteron 248 was designed for HT800 (200 MHz bus), while the Opteron 275 is capable of running HT1000. Finally, the cache size per core is different as well.
Picking processors for dual-CPU machines sometimes was difficult in the past, because these often had to be at least the same product type, if not identical in order to run. All these facts we listed now basically made it unlikely that our asymmetric system would even be able to boot.
The fact that it worked served to prove that a triple-core system based on the same cores would only offer better results.
There was a TV show about a car used by govt spies. It was called the Viper, and besides having cool gadgets and weapons, it could change color. Unfortunately it was cancelled pretty quick. I liked the idea, tho.
As a real Christian parent you should be more involved in your child's rearing, instead of relying on lawmakers.
Nice smokescreen, dude. But what happens when parenting suddenly becomes ILLEGAL? i.e. a parent spanking his child, and ending up in jail for domestic violence (it has happened, in LA if i recall correctly).
Look, a parent pays his taxes so the people at the congress pass laws that protect him and his children. A parent has the right to decide Whether violent videogames promote violence or not. Therefore, it is the PARENT, and NOT THE CONGRESS who should have control over videogames. But this sets a precedent: It's the congress, and NOT the parents, who have the final word on this issue.
In Soviet USA, the government parents YOU!
Forbidding violent videogames from minors is not an attack against a teenager's freedom. It is a protection of the PARENTS' WILL. But if laws suddenly began granting the wishes of immature kids against the wishes of their parents, why not just lower the adult age to 15? Heck, why not just abolish parenthood and let the brats do whatever they want?
The current laws are stupid and full of hypocrisy.
The problem for Microsoft is the overwhelming popularity of its browser. Virus writers and hackers target IE because there are so many systems running it.
Yeah right. And I thought you were PROMOTING firefox...
it just amazed me. This is nothing but a replication of the natural immune system... where the honeypots are the lymphatic ganglions, and the signatures are the antibodies.
I'd like to see how this results... whatever the outcome, it's an interesting experiment.
The rise of open source software elliminated the need to download "ad-sponsored software". I still remember the days where Gator was used to download big files over the net. But now we have bittorrent, or Shareaza (which happened to be spyware at first, but now went open source). And let's not forget about Opera, which, in the beginning, was also ad-sponsored.
And this is why the term "adware" has slowly vanished from download sites, to be replaced with "open source". If Claria has faded into a low-profile company, it's because the world has changed.
What good is it to have the xxx TLD if they won't enforce it?
An intelligent filter COULD be used for sites that do use.xxx domains. Suppose you enter a.com domain and the site also has a.xxx domain. Follow all redirections until the site doesn't redirect anymore. You lookup the host name and get an IP. Then replace.com with.xxx, and lookup. Is it the same IP? Censor the other domain, or the IP. Ta-da.
Also, let's position ourselves in the near feature, 5 years from now..xxx domains are now used. A conservative senator launches a proposal ENFORCING the now voluntary use of.xxx domains. It gets approved.
But how could such proposal be approved if no pr0n website has a.xxx domain?
The problem with rejecting some measures because they're "not good enough" is stupidity. Not stepping forward is stepping backwards.
Please take some pictures and video. While I don't agree with the egg shooting, it would make a nice image to bring banners saying "RIAA = Thieves", "Record companies = Obsolete" or something.
Bring papers stating the futility of DMCA and such, and stand out if the press wants to make interviews. We need more publicity!
It is a dark and stormy night. You are likely to be eaten by a wet Grue.
The raining season had begun a couple of weeks ago. You can hear the thunders approaching from the east. The pain in your injured knee keeps telling you this would be a very bad night. Hungry, hurt, and barely clothed, you try to crouch to protect yourself from the cold. Even the horses at the stable are getting anxious.
You begin to wonder if this stupid quest for recovering your family treasure is really worth it. On top of it, you just stepped on the horses' waste.
"Ugh!" you complain, trying to clean your foot on the straw, when you hear an armored person approaching. Quick, hide! If they find you you're fried meat!
I think the reason for this is that the development tools for Windows are FAR more advanced than their Linux counterparts.
i.e. Visual Basic. (eeew). But for Linux? Well, there's Gambas, but Gambas is _NOT_ sourcecode compatible with Visual Basic.
What we need is a RAD-application that, besides having database support, is cross-platform. We need a tool so easy that Joe Programmers can compile a cross-platform application from either Windows or Linux.
The guys at DABODEV are working on one, but there's a loooong way to go. And the Codeblocks IDE is pretty decent, but it's designed for C++, and I doubt database people would like programming in C++ and worrying about memory usage, checking pointers and having to deal with segfaults caused by uninit'ed variables.

Oh, did I mention that you gain less and less from going smaller
because more signal is wasted as heat.
Unless of course, you're optical transistors, nanotubes, spintronics and all that nano stuff that hasn't been applied to electronics yet.

Try downloading an abandonware called "Eye of the Beholder II". It's a wonderful game despites its low tech. It really gets you into the D&D mood.

You can't effectively immunize against HIV, for example, because it's always changing.
Tell that to the crocodile's immune system.
Plus, even the HIV virus has a weakness. Block the cell-attaching mechanism, and you've blocked HIV.

There were some colored windows, I opened them, and a wonderful vista (view) was shown to me.
I saw... a penguin.
I was trying not to make an overstatement. I guess I overestimated the show... (hope i'm not overstating the pun).
Babylon 5 is a show that 15% of the population of the United States has ever heard of!
Not to mention 80% of the rest of the world.
Am I the only one seeing that American 'democracy' is doomed to become a corporate dictatorship?
"Explicit sexual acts" isn't clear enough? Search for porn on the web and i DOUBT you'll find a porn website NOT having "explicit sexual acts".
This "we really don't know what pornography is" argument is pure bull.
