Sorry, nothing inspiring there, just a rather sad and bitter man using highly selective evidence to attack a straw man.
But at least it shows that Atheists do actively attack religion, despite the many claims to the contrary that have appeared in this discussion.
You must have watched a different video to me, you don't find the Hubble deep field images to be awesome?
I think that if I were delusional enough to believe in a higher power then I would be awe-struck and inspired by the evidence of his great works in those photos. Forget the "world was created in seven days" bit, the observable Universe is an awesome place and if it doesn't strike a cord in your cold-cold heart then I truly feel sorry for you.
Instead of quarantines, we need to treat it at a regular hospital and treat the people with respect.
There's a great idea, let's put a highly infectious virus with a 50% kill rate into a hospital and not quarantine those known to be infected.
That's simply insane.
Yes, the whole situation on the ground is fucked up, but not recognizing that the ONLY way to contain Ebola is by quarantine is going to make things worse not better.
iCloud.com addresses are required for most of iCloud's services. Without iCloud loses a lot of functionality.
Guess what I don't have
Not true, you can register with iCloud with another email address, however it will then automatically allocate an iCloud.com address for you, but you don't have to use it nor does it limit the functionality. (This is what I do...)
Having a STEM degree and no communication skills is limiting. Having communication skills and no tech background is limiting in another dimension.
This is why my daughter, bless her crazy little cotton socks, has been doing a double major of Liberal Arts and Civil Engineering. She completed the arts degree this spring and will finish her B.Eng. next fall.
So offer me one. Give me a internet license for BBC online and let me stream it from whereever I am on the planet. If you want you can do it by creating your own VPN and renting that to me.
My theory is they don't go into STEM because of asshats like you. When they do, they go into fields where asshats like you aren't welcome. For example, my workplace has a firm "no asshats" policy, and, guess what, lots of STEM women.
Exactly, I work in a similar environment and I'd say that on average the women actually out-perform the men.
From my 70 year old mother who still designs railways for a living: "Of course we're better, we had to be just to get through school and stay in the game."
Unity isn't the problem. The project management and developers are.
This is generally the case, tools do matter, but people matter much more.
Give a brilliant team a conference room and a supply of paper, pencils and food and they will turn the world on it's head. Give a team of idiots the best tools that money can buy and all you'll get is a steam pile of fertilizer.
(Give the brilliant team the best tools... though, even if it only makes them 1% more efficient it's still cheaper than the tools.)
Yeah? And the meme of referencing an animated gif with an incorrect file name and no working hyperlink is fucking stupid, and people like you do nothing but contribute to the idiocracy in this country. It's gotten so bad, the god damn eurotrash insult us on this site with impunity while I get down-modded when I respond
Eurotrash? Dude, even the igloo-dwelling, beaver hunting, poutine eating canadians are making fun of you.
The only way for this kind of abusive marketing to be stopped would be for gamers to boycott the products and vendors, which would be like meth-heads boycotting meth.

Betamax... Microsoft should go have a long chat with Sony

Remember Betamax and VHS?
Having the best technology or devices won't necessarily bring you market share.
so lets see what the sales results for Q3 show before declaring WP dead on the basis of the Q2 results.
It was probably just pining for the fjords, the Lumia prefers kipping on it's back. Lovely plumage.
Plus, every new infection means more chances for Ebola to mutate, possibly into an airborne form.
But then we could start using fuel-air bombs on civilians! Hours of fun for the whole family.

Europe has had 2000 years of that kind of indoctrination. It's a wonder the entire continent isn't a backwards idiot ridden Sodom and Gamorrah.
I'm guessing you've never been to Manchester.

I'm English, but I was pleasantly surprised to find most of the 16-17 year olds giving well reasoned opinions on why they were voting Yes or No.
I spent a good part of last evening listening to BBC Scotland Radio 1, I was very impressed with how civilized and informed everyone was behaving.
But perhaps I'm comparing it with Quebec.

The perception of reality seems to change over time. Not surprisingly, BSG was a product of the Bush years.
Note that the Bush-era series is a reboot of the series from the 70's (Jimmy Carter era).

Isn't that what iplayer is?

I mean, face it, men are just more willing to be the trolls and make life miserable for each other.
WAT?! You ever see what happens when you get a group of women together?
Sheesh. Asking a slashdotter for his insights about women is like asking a Mormon about his favorite microbrews.
Clearly the irony of your own observations is lost on you.

I'll wait for the Beta, or perhaps a release candidate.

I am apathetic to your outrage.
Your pathetic apathy sickens me!
Am I doin' it right?
No... not really...
This is Slashdot. We'll take any excuse we can to get outraged.
I am highly offended by your outrageous comment!
G+ is making FF crash its ass off these days.
If only there was a simple workaround for this, but it's just not coming to me.
There's a difference between boycott and theft.
Well said.
