no the difference is the US was started as a union from the get go, it was founded that way. the US has a constitution which supposedly recognizes certain inalienable rights the EU tried to usurp member nations by secret legislation and backhanded deals over the course of 50 years till people suddenly woke up and the EU finally admitted, ya we been lying to you for 50 years, now your in the EU, hope your constitutions didnt give you too many freedoms before cause now you can kiss them goodbye
well this is a tuff one, i hate microsoft, but i also hate the EU.. what business does EU have telling MS to do anything? what business do they have fining MS either? correct me if im wrong but the EU is not a sovereign nation, most of its member nations hate the origanization and only are considered part of it because their leaders lied them into it in the first place. now they are going to tell the world how to do business?
on the other hand MS does have some pretty shady practices. but forcing PCs to be sold with no OS is retarded
we should have the option though (and the option not to pay for an OS)
The guy was also on dangerious mind altering drugs, why dont we blame that??
wtf. he was sexually abused, on anti-depression mind altering drugs!! tens of millions of people play video games in this country alone, we dont all go on rampages
a FAAAAAAAAAAR larger % of people on anti-depressants blitz out and go nuts than gamers
the guy drinks water too! should we say that everyone who drinks water goes nuts on gun rampages?
FACT: EVER SINGLE MURDERER and CRIMINAL IN THE HISTORY OF MAN HAS DRANK WATER!!! when will we learn!!
they had this same story on digg a couple hours ago on the frontpage no less but they DELETED IT!! its not just off the frontpage, its gone, i commented on it, and its gone.. not in my history..
this is like the 10 something threads now in the last month that have been deleted that i posted on
wtf man digg is full of crap, i like how it lets you leave your opinion, and boost things, but i hate how it is so damn censored, if its all about peoples input, why do they censor/delete/moderate so much FUCK them...
GM potatoes killed half the lab rats also from monsanto half the rats that ate it died it has new acids that have never existed before that literally kill you!
they start using this potatoes in french fries and crap and a large % of the population will get sick, cancer, and/or die
monsantos is THE 'evil multinational corporation' from the movies;) the evil corp thats always selling poisons and death. thats what they do in real life
certain bacterias are helpful lactobacteria (acidophilus? something like that) are good for your digestion, normally you get it as a baby from mother milf and a culter of bacteria lives in your colon most of your life, but anti-biotics kill it and cause iregularity
eating yogurt with lactobacteria can help restore it
i thought this article was going to be about the bacteria eating viruses that they are using to treat foods now.. thats right viruses in our food on purpose. and the only way they can breed enough of these viruses to use is by breeding them on the very harmful bacteria that they are supposed to treat! the fda admits a small number of the treated foods will have the more of the harmful bacteria on them than you would otherwise be exposed to without any of their tampering...
so we are being given viruses and bacteria for.. what??!!!
if more games were ported to linux the linux market could grow alot of people only use windows cause windows is the only support platform for most of the games they play
this might explain why so few games want to port to linux (or why companies like blizzard make linux versions but never release them), if you keep that market weak and small you only have to support 1 platform..
also with 180 servers its hard to allow the worlds to change alot, that would mean they would need teams of dedicated live event handlers for each realm.. its just not ever going to happen
man that article was absurd, that guy clearly didnt know DICK about linux.. you dont have to pay for support contracts, and your system is not wide open for anyone to look at... ofcourse anyone with have a brain (most of the people on slashdot) already knew that
it comes down to that guy being unaware of the subject and wasting money
they NEEED to open source the code behind these things too, i mean theres even LAWS stating that is mandatory and yet they dont do it!!
a voting system shouldnt even be considered unless the code is open to review, they should also keep a better record of the votes instead of a single value that can easily be changed
i just got the guitar hero 2, that came out today!
i played the crap out of the first one, beat every song with 4 or 5 stars on expert i wont try and disect why its fun, but it IS:) its extremely fun when playing with friends against eachother!
this is one big bullshit article i am a linux gamer, i play a ton of games on linux, even games not officially supported by game developers
mostly i play World of Warcraft thru cedega 100% issue free i also play Civ3 and Civ4, both run fine (civ4 is slow though, on both windows and linux) thru cedega i also play SimCity (whatever the newest one was, 4?) it runs fine (in software mode) thru cedega
i can even run crap tacular voip software like vent on wine for talking to guildmates on wow
steam games also all work on linux not EVERY game does, but most people dont run out to buy EVERY game anyway
if game developers dont support linux, people wont be able to switch if people arent going to switch cause they want to play games, the developers wont worry about linux support.. its a catch 22
personally im happy with the games i play, and happy with linux and am even know trying to make sure i can support linux with an indy game im working on (although its a little harder since its a road less traveled)
its always biased, against whos in power, but thats not really a bad thing, the media is supposed to be a 'check and balance' on government sorta, so having a 'news' network that goes after the ruling power is GOOD. the thing thats more informative about them is that they cover alot more topics, even the ones fox doesnt want to cover, and they do cover it in greater detail, even letting viewers listen to the chat logs foley had with pages. I didnt see that on any other network, especially not fox, they made it sound like nothing was even wrong.
the difference between the daily show, and other networks like fox, is that the government is so freaking ridiciouslous it makes the daily show's job easier (making fun!), and makes fox's job alot harder! (trying to make the ruling power NOT look like a complete bunch of corrupt idiots)
geez thats lame, whats next? ban any activity involving balls to avoid kids getting hit with them?
lets ban running too just incase kids might trip
you know what lets just ban outdoor activity alltogether, i mean there are bugs that could sting them
its weird seeing how kids today grow up, its nothing like when i was a kid, i had freedom, i was 'supervised (school)' barely a quarter of the day, i rode my bike wherever the hell i wanted to go;), no cell phones, kids today are never out of sight of a parent of caregiver. its very unusual to me.
im gonna go out on a limb here and guess that this root exploit only works if your running code that exploits it on your computer. my suggestion: dont run any untrusted code on your computer! de de deee! just like normal, use a bit of caution im sure nvidia will fix it soon anyway
remember on that movie the abyss where they go super deep and they use a breathable liquid to get oxygen at super super deep depths, without being killed
would it make sense to pack a person into a capsule with this breathable liquid filling the whole chamber, then even if they were getting insane G-force they wouldnt be getting slammed/crushed around because the liquid would have near the same density as the persons body.
i hope the people on it will at least be reasonably fit and attractive;) i mean we really dont want to be broadcasting bloated flabby people's images into space, an alien species will think that we are ripe for farming like cattle

we should have the option though (and the option not to pay for an OS)
shouldnt they get sued for false advertising?
.net would be cross platform also
they said
they are freaking LIARS
windows 2k, XP and vista DOESNT count as cross platform
you should at least have a non MS platform supported..
freaking MS doesnt know the meaning of the word crossplatform, or honesty for that matter

at least they got this one right
what scares me is how many dipshit democrats votes yes to it! wtf lets just do away with the whole media right?
well at least its only 3 months, thats still lame though

i think i agree with what ive seen so many others saying lately, boycot all novell crap
man that article was absurd, that guy clearly didnt know DICK about linux..

shameful
throw the book at him! hes a hardened criminal, and take his harmonica away so he doesnt try and break anymore copyrights while hes in jail

im gonna go out on a limb here and guess that this root exploit only works if your running code that exploits it on your computer.
my suggestion: dont run any untrusted code on your computer! de de deee!
just like normal, use a bit of caution
im sure nvidia will fix it soon anyway
you think its a good idea to short them right now?
remember on that movie the abyss where they go super deep and they use a breathable liquid to get oxygen at super super deep depths, without being killed
would it make sense to pack a person into a capsule with this breathable liquid filling the whole chamber, then even if they were getting insane G-force they wouldnt be getting slammed/crushed around because the liquid would have near the same density as the persons body.
would this help make a difference?
exactly how is this the land of the free?
we cant do shit
this whole country has lost its way
now the government tells me im not allow to gamble online, in my own home?
fuck that
alot of peoples income comes from online gambling
i hope the people on it will at least be reasonably fit and attractive ;)
i mean we really dont want to be broadcasting bloated flabby people's images into space, an alien species will think that we are ripe for farming like cattle
