Funny how there's no link in "related stories" to the original Slashdot post about Wikileaks. You know, the one that was all about how Wikileaks was a scam and would never get off the ground.
Under other circumstances, maybe. Anybody who is used to reading papers like this will instantly understand it as "we don't know why, and we leave that question open for further work".
Says the poster that doesn't care about/.ers picking on Scientology. What?
If you detect some anger in my posts regarding Christians its not because of their beliefs per say, its because their beliefs are forced on me whether I want them to be or not and affect my day to day life. Last time I checked that wasn't bigotry. And that is why you called me one and belittled me? Because I had forced my Christian beliefs on you?
Do jews, muslims, buddhists and hindu also force their beliefs on you whether you want them or not?
The real trick is that they do teach you self-help methods that do, to some extent, work. Thus the religion seems to be actually useful, and people are willing to go along with it.
I don't see you complaining about Scientology being bashed. I can only assume you think THAT is ok because you are a Christian, otherwise you'd have mentioned that as well. I'm pretty sure you assume that because you're a bigot.
As it turns out, I'm strictly an atheist. I'm just not so insecure in my beliefs that I need to lash out at everybody who isn't, or who I imagine isn't.
No, when there are no comments, you get the normal story page with no comments and the option to post one.
"Nothing for you to see here" is a weird bug that has been around for a long time now without being fixed. It is not meant to ever be seen by clicking on a normal story link, which is why people complain about it, with little effect.
Scientologists aren't crackpots, though. They're a very deliberate scam. The things they teach are a mixture of self-help material and crackpottery, but don't think for a second that the leaders actually believe in any of it.
As of 2003, the TRON system (or more specifically the ITRON derivative) is one of the world's most used operating systems, being present in millions of electronic devices.
Further, they are modeling inherently chaotic systems which we have trouble forecasting only a week into the future. Hubris, anyone? You know what's really chaotic? A coin toss. We can't predict the outcome of even a single coin toss, much less a hundred of them.
Yet those statisticians, in their hubris, claim they can even so predict the average of the coin tosses! Is it not preposterous?

Why would anyone make a logger for something nobody uses?
Yes, 25000 dollars is certainly more than enough to compensate for being arrested for aiding terrorism!
Perhaps you should, instead, try to read and understand the post that you are replying to.
+1, As Poetic As Slashdot Will Ever Get

Downward spiral into what, exactly? From all your hints, I was thinking bisexuality, but I'd like to be sure.

The subject turns to crackpottery, and immediately, freemasons turn up.
What is this, reddit, where every comments has to be turned into an attack on christianity?

What's to stop people from STEALING votes ?
The fact that is is made out to me, personally, and I have to identify myself before I vote?
I'm not suggesting this as a hypothetical, this is actually how I vote.

h.264 is a far better codec than Theora will ever be, and it's standardized instead of being a hobbyist toy project.
Being used in three billion devices in a single country is less impressive to you than being used in three billion devices world-wide?
PS: How many of your electronic devices are made in Japan, again?

I thought you used Kubuntu because if your OS is any other colour than blue, it threatens your fragile sexuality?
Here, have a cookie!
No, no, lots of people use them to pirate copyrighted material! I really don't understand why Apple won't cater to this market!
Sarcasm is... redundant?
Yes, because asking "Would you like to open Firefox to use this link?" is such a clear indication that your system is about to be hacked.
