I already mentioned somewhere today the home media servers. I am familair with the WD ones for having worked with them, but I also know almost all of them work with Linux, from WD to Qnap and anything in between, it's just ubiquitous.
But except the hackers few people know and those who know don't care as long as it works.
Ha, I know what's happening: The South Koreans have paid this fat guy Kim Sick Ung (or however it's written) to scare me off and avoid an embarrassing defeat in the Daegu 10K race next April 14, becuase they know I will make them smell my farts.
Koreans of North and South alike, prepare to be PWND by the first ever Dutch racing team to land on your shores!!
Nope. A Muslim Dog. It's a new breed mix of Great Dane and Wiener. The breed was popularised in the US by the famous "rapper" Emimen (AKA Slim Shady) hence the "slim". And the "Mu" comes from the Wiener part, that being Halal wiener, of course, is made of cow meat.
These dogs acquired a notorious fame as part of the Taliban where they formed the infamous Brown Squads spreading terror among the Afghan population sowing the boardwalks with poo.
They did however fall in disgrace when his leader Muhammed Al-Barf humped Bin Laden's chihuahua Pinky.
You have one theory, "the existence of X". You have to prove that X exists, the counterpart, the "non-existence of X" is not a separate theory but just the falsification of the theory about X. If you can't prove X then !X applies.
We are furthermore talking about a cultural artefact, not a physical entity. You may want to stretch the possibilities ad absurdum, but given the actual stand of knowledge the place were a God could reside is so small that it isn't even worth considering. Where would you fit a God? If it's not needed for the very universe to exist, where is He? Outside the Universe? And in this case how does he influence us? Note that this is the most important part of the definition of a God. You may have an humungous supernatural being but which has no influence on us, no relation with our creation and no interest in our lives... would you call it god?
Note that a god has to meet the conditions of being our creator (or the creator of the universe) and being at least partially interested in us. Any alien being that does not satisfy at least one of these conditions is just nothing more than an alien entity, no matter who huge and powerful.
Thus, the "Agnostic" has to make a greater act of faith than the believers themselves as the believers do not have to ponder logic or make an effort to ignore the overwhelming weight of common sense in order to keep a minuscule little hole open for God Almighty to hide inside.
Indeed, you nailed it. Believing in gravity is absolutely a matter of faith as we cannot proof it's existence... until we jump from the 5th floor, but then it's too late to repent.
So, if I have faith in running my next 10K race in 40:00 this is based in evidence? Which evidence if I may ask? Your evidence would imply travelling forward in time and back again to provide the evidence.
I have faith in tomorrow being a tranquil day at work (in this godless Dutch country Good Friday is a working day!)... but shit can happen, Jesus with a flaming sword can appear to announce his Second Coming and set a server ablaze by accident!
I bet he thinks Stockholm is a suburb of Paris (the capital of Rome, of course). Well, what would you expect from guys who call football to a game played by guys in pyjama with motor helmets hurling melons?
Sorry mate, the reports got eaten by the dog. A muslim dog, actually, and I'm afraid he's right now heading to Mecca for the annual Muslim Dog Show. The winner becomes a medal, the losers a Belgian passport.
Just a note about the ciphers: Most natives of "Catholic" countries know about the fact that no matter what religion or non-religion they really belong to they are getting counted as Catholics.
A good example is Belgium or my country, the Netherlands, country with a 60% of non-believers. It is however enough that you parents had you baptised to count officially as a Catholic, even if you are like most in this country non-believer (which is BTW quite usual among the right wing that would more or less correspond to the USian republicans). In order to stop being counted as a Catholic you need to send a letter to the corresponding bishop.
There are countries like Spain, where at a 25% of the population declare themselves openly agnostic where even muslim converts are counted as "Catholics" because they have been baptised as babies.
I know that in South America Protestant and Evengelical creeds are increasingly popular...
I wouldn't be able to say what the real figures might be, but just make you aware that you need to take the figures handled by the Vatican with a very very high amount of salt.
That's bullshit right there. Strength training is done for short periods of time and large amounts of weight. If it takes you that much time, then you're doing it wrong.
right. There is a classic method called "the abbreviated method" (I assume you are talking about that one) consisting on a few movement such as the squat, the bench press, dead lifts and a few more, using heavy weight, perfect form and performed slowly, using very low reps, 4x6 normally for muscle growth.
However; with a higher amount of reps and lower weight you can tarin for muscular endurance.
But you are totally right: A normal session should not exceed 30 minutes (of excercise). More is should not be an option as it is supposed that you should end up pretty tired after a good workout, else it means that you are just lifting too light or following some strange fancy "get ripped abs in two weeks" program, lol.
Doing some basic calisthenics is not going to make you any fitter either. Well, it will move your blood a bit and avoid RSI. Standing is a good workout by itself, very nice for core stability.
But if you really want a workout you need to do it at a level above 60% of your resting heart rate. This means sweating.
What I and many people do is using the 30 minutes lunch pause to go out running. I started this way 3 years ago and I stopped with it after 6 months... the reason? I found out that running was totally made for me, I am now a sub 3:30 marathoner (actually 3:21:47, here: http://goo.gl/uuRqa) and planning to step into ultra-running quite soon.
My strategy is as Russ1642 said: stop being lazy and getting my butt to the gym and to the streets. I stay up at 4:00 in the morning twice or three times a week to run 8 - 12 miles before going to work. I commute by train and bicycle cycling 30mi/week and I three to four times a week I lift weight.
In fact, once you are "in the groove" you don't need any special stimulus: It's just what you want to do, it feels good, almost as good as sex and way, way better than playing video games or watching TV. And the best is that you can still eat pizza... even more, you will need tons of the stuff!!! well, "pizza" is actually a figure of speech as most sporters have a healthy diet, in massive amounts but healthy. But hey... beer is not restricted! It's actually a tradition!!! Yeah!
Mate, 8 year old girls getting married to decrepit old men... and now this.
What a sick country, I'm so happy that my country, the Netherlands decided to get the fuck out of this place.
I have just lunched so I will not google anything right now; I would throw up.
How do you know that anybody is despaired to get somebody into custody?
How do you know that the accusations are not right?
Why aren't "they" going for John Young who has been "in business" since 1996?
Why only Assange and not any other of his team?
To many questions that need to be answered. I don't believe in good guys / bad guys movies, sorry. I know the whole plot is appealing but real life is unfortunately not Hollywood.
If you can give me solid explanation of the above I will maybe embrace the True Faith and let me baptise to the New Religion and even join 4chan and wear a Vendetta mask.;)
It seems that Assange's mates aren't quite good at remembering that the guy who filtered this stuff is facing court martial.
While "JesusCrist" Assange is all the day long on TV nobody even remembers Bradley Manning, not even Wikileaks, specially when it comes to fund his cause.
Yes, of course, they are too busy caring for Assange's hairdo
FAIL: IP laws in Spain
Big FAIL... I can proof it:
1) I AM Spanish
2) IP Laws are subject to EU legislation
3) Spain has it's own _very_ powerful IP lobby (SGAE) that receives it's own funding from indirect taxes on storage devices (a LOT of $$$). Note that that these people are very interested in keeping the status quo and that their relative influence on the Spanish politicians (of both left and right) is way higher than what the RIAA has in the USA
4) Some IP related issues like file sharing are protected by law and as 3) applies (SGAE gets money from taxes) they cannot be changed.
So much for your valuable information.
Of course, I cannot verify anything about Afghanistan, I'm not there, but I am in the EU.
And yes, the Boy Sex Toy can really change the history of humanity, but please tell me where the importance of this issue relies, in the fact that it's for boys or that it's a sex toy?
Otherwise: They have surely also bought other stuff like T-shirts and Christmas cards... with tax payers money... Captain Obvious told me that this is because your forces are paid with tax payers money to begin with, and of course: The US forces are not going to produce sex toys themselves, are they?
And what about Ban Ki Moons biometrics? If true it could lead to a minor incident true, but nothing worth a second thought. But if it has the same worth as the Spanish IP claim, "apaga y vámonos" as we say in Spanish.
It's encrypted and only Assange has the key.
This means that they could as well be his grocery list or a dump of/dev/random.
Even in the best case only a very small part will be of any interest...
There are some, like Cryptome's John Young, who claim that Assange is pimping worthless information as a publicity stunt while he might be selling 'good' data behinde the scenes for a good price.
Here is Youngs article in the Nettime mailig list: http://mail.kein.org/pipermail/nettime-l/2010-December/002495.html
I am not completely sure that Young doesn't have any private issue with Assange and he seems rather elusive with giving names of his sources (using instead "a friend of mine") so that I would keep a healthy amount of doubt. But on the other side Young has been doing the same as Wikileaks since 1996 and has an exceptional record so far.
Don't worry about negative publicity, the whole mass media is supporting this circus. And if we have to believe Cryptome's Young, Mr Assagne has quite some support from US money and media(he cites Soros).
What 'dirty little secrets' exactly?
That the French prez is a swollen toad ?
That there may be or may no be nukes on Dutch territory?
One thing I have to admit: Assange is the biggest scammer since Madoff, or maybe even bigger.
I'm happy to read that there are in fact a lot od Slashdotters who still keep a bit of critical edge.
I feel ashamed about this stupid mass-media 'Wikileech' circus.
Specially after seeing how the low-life cheers thinking that they are in the middle of a Revolution... but the worst is that many that I held for intelligent joined the circus too.
Slashdot Mirror
My believe is that...
Sorry, I can't remember what I was going to write, was busy calling with my new Android phone.
Indeed.

A good decision from the environmental point of view:
Kim Fat Ung and his generals would crap his pants from fear and envy and this would fill the whole Korean Peninsula with a meter of pure shit.
But it wasn't necessary after all; the Chinese just told fatso to shut the fuck up.
Ha, I know what's happening: The South Koreans have paid this fat guy Kim Sick Ung (or however it's written) to scare me off and avoid an embarrassing defeat in the Daegu 10K race next April 14, becuase they know I will make them smell my farts.

Van welk deel van Belgie zeg je dat je vandaan komt?
Ik heb er helemaal niks van deze report gehoord hoor.
Maar ja, misschien komt het omdat wij kaaskoppen ons niet te veel met België bemoeien... behalve waneer het bier op raakt.
Quick translation:
I not have heared from the report. I no idea. Send Belgian beer, beer gud, we not much beer having.
