    My Submission 'Slashdotter gets laid' was rejected. CmdrTaco explained that no one would believe it.

    I have to agree with you on this point. This would be an interesingthing to try to implement. You would also then have to work around folks who'd try to break the system with three or four accounts, and mailing the same thing to both accounts. The data would then be "grouped".

    Storage could be allocated by amount of space / number of users accessing, I suppose. Ultimately, what you are ending up with is a global shared hard drive, as you alluded to, Google IS the Internet. Why is the theme music to 'Pinky and the Brain' playing in my head?

    And sorry about the harshness of previous replies. I am a recovering jerk... it's a long process :)

  10. Re:Giggles. on Scientific American Gives Up · · Score: 1

    I could do that. It depends on my level of faith in my wife versus level of faith in the Polaroids. You are trying to bend the definition of faith to where it is unassailable. That is false.

  11. Re:Schweet on Gmail's Birthday Presents · · Score: 1

    This may be difficult for you to comprehend, but I was simply illustrating a point. This shows why a true "infinite" storage concept cannot work. When designing something like this, you must always look at how it can be abused and then put up safeguards, or scrap the idea altogether.

    There is only one person in this world that doesn't understand that. Therefore, I welcome you to Slashdot, Mr. Gates!

    Care to continue to argue? Or do you already have "faith" in your argument? :)

  14. Re:Giggles. on Scientific American Gives Up · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Then your supervisor is working off of a very bad definition of faith. I have faith in my wife, as she has proven herself faithful. Someone questions that, and he gets a fist in the face. Someone produces a polaroid, and she gets... um... the divorce papers ;)

    Faith is the belief in continued performance based upon past experience. Not a blind belief. Though, I will grant, many make it to be that way.

  19. Re:Before we all claim he's nuts... on Gamer Slain Over Virtual Property Dispute · · Score: 1

    Physical property has a real limit on the supply, thus value is determined by supply and demand.

    You mean like stamp collecting or baseball cards? Those are determined by supply and demand too, and they are artifically limited.

  21. Re:The general public is distracted... on TSA Lied About Protecting Passenger Data · · Score: 1

    1 Timothy 3:2. It definitely restricts polygamy, and probably rules out divorced/remarried folks from hig church position, but this is an area of dispute.

    And the Old Testament never condones the practice of polygamy. It also doesn't directly condemn it either. The closest thing we can get in the OT is that "the two become one flesh", quoted in Genesis, and followed up on by Jesus himself.

  23. Re:The general public is distracted... on TSA Lied About Protecting Passenger Data · · Score: 1

    Then you have only read the Old Testament. In the New Testament, this is clearly prohibited (at least for anyone in a church leadership position). No comment from me on the authority of the Bible, just a simple statement of what the Bible says.
