No, dipshit, the way you have described capitalism equally describes any other monetary system. You might want to look up definitions of words before spouting off.
It can seem intuitive to you, but that doesn't make it so. The ratio of a square to its "diameter" is very easily calculated. What makes a circle different? Which shapes have irrational ratios? Which don't?
And simply using your "infinite line segment" theory, calculus shows us that an infinite series will often produce a finite, rational number.
So, sorry but your intuition is more likely that you knew the answer, and back into it using superficial logic.
Cool. I never knew that. Not that I do much with disk imagining anyhow, the last time I was involved in the hands-on part of disk imaging was when I was a tech with the University back in the early 90's.I didn't realize the tools were that far developed today. Thanks for the info.
I don't think I took offense. I just found it odd that folks were upmodding posts that made no sense at all. If I took offense at anybody, it is those who modded it up. I think it is more indicative of folks not really reading when they are modded. They just see "lotsa long words" and say "wow, that must be smart".
So, no I did not take offense at the posts. He is a troll and a darn good one.
I am not sure whether to despise or marvel at above poster. He consistenly posts drivel yet gets modded up just as consistently. I have read several of his posts where he puts together lengthy words that mean absolutely nothing when put beside each other. Yet, despite being utter non-sense (far beyond an argument that makes no sense, really, truly nonsensical) he gets modded up to +4 and +5.
Much like a train wreck, I can't take my eyes off of these posts and the ensuing up mods. I think I have answered my own question. This man is a troll. But a damn good one.
And Slashdot should run a query and find anyone who has modded him up. Then they should not only ban these people from modding, but from visiting Slashdot at all.
And yeah, the sun does run out. Or at least it isn't useful when it goes through an extended night. Or if it is in a location that doesn't get direct sun (crater).
I came here to make a similar remark. A mutation like this would seem to be highly beneficial. Wouldn't you expect to see more of it in the population if it didn't have some downside to it?
Why is this in idle? This is actually an intelligent study worthy of reading. I would prefer the NYT article than the video, but overall this should be front page.
"Wikipedia doesn't publish "things that are true", it publishes "things that can be verified by asking other reliable sources"."
What a load of BS.
While I marvel at your debating skills, I think you are missing the point. Encyclopedias are never the primary source of information. They merely compile and reference other works. This is not a wikipedia thing. This is an encyclopedia thing.
ZOMG! BIG DEAL! Not really, they simply keep an eye on it, regularly check on it, and write to the credit bureaus every time there is a mix up.
Hi, this is reality talking: "I had a friend who had a negative item on his credit report. JD Byrider, used car dealership, had my friend's loan as a "write off". He showed it to me along with a receipt from JD Byrider showing that he paid it off in a lump sum. I figured, okay easy enough. We went to the dealership, showed them the receipt and the credit report. Dealerships says "we can't help you. the dealership is under new ownership and we can't access old records". Now, this is bullshit, because I guarantee they are still collecting on the old loans. So we file a dispute with the credit bureaus, including the receipt. All said and done, JD Byrider, with their system that cannot access old records tells the bureaus that it was a write-off. Bureau sides with the dealership.
If is a fucked up system. The Bureaus are not there to protect you. They are there to make a profit from their clients, business.
And now, my employer can use this as a disqualification. You write about how you can give all this info to your employer to get yourself in if they require a credit check. The reality is that your employer is going to have a cut-off. 650 or lower, for example, and you are out. You will never find out why. You won't get a chance to defend yourself.

Nope, I am sure no woman has ever gone down on a Mac or Linux user. Oh wait, I think I misunderstood you..

.. does this mean my botnet can continue to spam folks even if they turn off their PCs? If so, this is a great feature!
Yup. PayPal is a scam. Okay to use it until there is a problem.
Yes.
(seriously, my BMI is pushing 26, and I feel the need to drop five pounds. I can't imagine living with a BMI of 30+)
For your info I'm THIRTY-SIX.

Wow! You sure showed them!
You got beat up by an IT guy. Either he is a paraplegic, elderly or both.
Can you explain what you mean by getting it out of bios when imaging?

Have you gone through his posting history? Seriously, read my entire post instead of just one sentence. I tell you, this man is brilliant.

See this post, which at one time made it to +5 Insightful: http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1335281&cid=29052559&art_pos=4. Then go through the rest of his posting history.

And for those of you keeping track, that's roughly 50,000 non-Manga/anime/Simpson's related articles.
The specs would have this thing lasting 8 years.
And yeah, the sun does run out. Or at least it isn't useful when it goes through an extended night. Or if it is in a location that doesn't get direct sun (crater).
I foresee you using "preview" next time.
I nominate you for Slashdot Editor.

Here is a link to one of the few intelligent articles I found written on the subject. link
Yeah, three cases. Out of hundreds of businesses I deal with. So yeah, dead.
Go fuck yourself.
