    Nah, it's just the topic of discussion. Impossible to tell if someone is trying to be funny or just a bit... how should I say... under-educated.

    I usually assume the latter and tell people the former. This seems to work, even when applied to my own posts.

    Where does the carbon we burn go then, if it doesn't increase CO2 levels in the atmosphere?

    Most likely the same place it came from. it's not as if carbon were being created from thin air.

    Why would you be averse to switching window managers? I use Fluxbox on my primary linux machine, and either windowmaker or enlightenment on the other two. I can load KDE or gnome, but have yet to find a compelling reason to do so.

  17. Re:due process? on Indymedia Server Raided by FBI · · Score: 1

    Just because they were searched doesn't mean they've been assumed guilty. (Guilty of what, I have no idea...) That won't be known until the evidence is assessed. And the evidence can't be assessed unless the government has access to it. That's sort of the point of a search order.

    I was under the impresion that a search order was issued to allow the police (or fbi, or whatever) to look for something specific. They had to prove to a judge that they have a reasonable expectation of finding what they're looking for before they get the warrant, and they can't take or use anything that doesn't apply directly to the warrant. If this is the case, then RackSPace should be able to tell Indymedia, and us, what was siezed and why (as the items in question, and specifically what was intended to be found on the hard drives should be listed on the search order which should have been presented to RackSpace).

    Any Law Enforcement people, or Lawyers who can completely invalidate my rather uninformed beliefs?

  21. Re:If it takes video game characters on Video Game Characters to Get Out the Vote · · Score: 1

    Actually, this might be a great idea. Find something people will pay attention to, and use it to inform them. Make things interesting and people will care, if people care maybe they will care enough to find out more. The problem is, nothing related to the vote is presented in an interesting manner. In many cases the important information seems like it is presented in the driest, longest form possible in an attempt to deter people from paying attention long enough to get any real informaiton from it. Perhaps, if information could be made accessable and somewhat entertaining, people could be encouraged to find out enough to vote intelligently, and to actually feel motivated to vote.

    I intend to vote in this election, but not for president (I intend to select whichever option has no chance at all). This is because I don't accept any of the choices presented for that office, but I want to make my opinion known on the more local topics on the ballot. However, I have seveal friends who weren't going to vote (and probably still aren't) simply because they don't care about who is president. None of them even considered the idea that more than that is on the ballot.

    I will now end my rambling idiocy. Thank you for reading. :]

  24. Re:It makes sense. on Detention Threat for Malaysian blogger · · Score: 1

    The refusal to take sides without -any- good evidence from either side is a cop out or cowardice? You make a good point that true atheism is logically impossible to prove. However, belief without any evidence and no way of testing for truth seems to me to be less a thing to be proud of and more a thing to hide away and never speak of. Yes, I believe India exists, but there's an easy test: I can go there. Now give me an equally simple test for the existance of god.
