I think you are going on about things that have nothing to do with what I posted. I simply pointed out the fundamental flaw in the great-grandparent post. You are trying to bring up religion. Get over it.
With one slight difference. The pain inflicted was not portrayed as being a good thing. It was portrayed as being done by evil men. Violence in other movies and games are glorified.
To the idiot who modded this troll: Please do not moderate any longer.
Simply because you do not LIKE a post does not make it a troll. I disagree with a lot of what was written above. However, it is insightful, but with a different viewpoint than many on Slashdot.
If you cannot tolerate simple differences of opinion like this, then you are not fit for modern society.
Simple. He simply uses Windows Calculator, and translates from binary 10001100001111110101011000010111101011111010010 to hex.
Simple when you think about it.
When all of their corresponents in Iraq were handled by minders. They were not allowed to leave the presence of the minders. They could not speak to anyone that the minders said they were allowed to speak to. And remember that whatever a person said to the "journalist" would be heard by the minder, and reported to the authorities if not "appropriate".
This is not surprising. What is, is that CNN never divulged this. When you saw the Iraqis praising Saddam, it was not under open circumstances. Had CNN qualified their interviews with this pertanent information, it would have given a much different view of Iraq than many of us got.
Just in case you aren't joking: Conservative in their manner of business... not political viewpoints. The BBC is more fair and balanced than any major news organization we have in the states. CNN used to compete, in my mind. However, revelations about their handling of pre-war Iraq journalism has tainted them.
I posted in the "speculation" news item, that the BBC is unlikely to do this type of thing. When looking for conspiracies one must take into account the character of the "persons" involved. The BBC is very above the board, and very conservative. Those two items combined made it hard to believe they would use misdirection in advertising.
Combine that with the "accusers" were making wild speculation without any substantiation, and the conclusion of this story was obvious.
If someone told you that the PSP is a portable gaming device, shoot these people. The PSP is not a portable gaming device, it is really a convergent portable entertainment device.
Whenever I read "PSP", I automatically think of Paint Shop Pro. *shrug*
Sorry to respond to my own reply. But, I see you HAVE submitted quite a few articles -- my apology. Have you stopped submitting, or have they stopped accepting?
Chico State has one of the highest per capita of parents per student
Wouldn't this be about two for every school? I mean every student has two parents. The exception would be when siblings attend the school at the same time.
And unless the mods were marking this informative because they know what DBs the AC administers, and has the resources to hack it now, they should be metamoded down.
Twenty years ago, I would have wanted recognition for working for HP. Now, I think the FULL TIME employees should sue HP for the right to say hey really work for McDonald's.
No. The interview sucked. A lot of the questions picked were absolutely lame. I like to learn about things I know nothing of. After reading this interview, I don't feel I learned a whole lot. That is the purpose of an interview -- to enlighten and inform... unless this has become 'Teen magazine for geeks'.
Okay. Lets put it to the test. Post your credit card number, expiration date, and "secret number" on back on Slashdot. Don't report it stolen for six months.
I agree to reimburse you $50, but you agree to give me TEN PERCENT of the face value of the amount the credit card hods you responsible for.

I would mod you down, but I'm afraid I might come across it while meta-modding...

Don't worry. I meta-moderate based on reason, not my feelings on a subject. Even if I disagree with the poster, I will hammer the down-modder.

Please point me to this rule. I'd really be interested to see the context.
Thanks.

You are free to submit your own articles. Why not try that?
Bathroom stalls. Everything I needed to know, I learned while taking a dump in public school...
This is hilarious! Someone please mod up! Hope I get the above mods in M2.

Please do not administer databases any more. You have no clue.

Regardless, I blame George Bush for our falling out of the coveted #1 position. When will the decline of our country end?
He was funded by a lot of the rich he "hated". I think that was grandparent's point.
