Maybe you could post a few examples from the work you cite, I'd be interested in hearing a few, truely. IMHO, a philosophy of "hey, this behavior might be a good idea in the context of society and just plain not being an asshole" makes a lot more sense than "I better not do this or [insert deity here] will be pissed". I'd like to know why they would think it's a better idea to continue to harbor an illogical belief in a fictional deity to lay down rules of behavior than to just decide to be a good person in context of society.
When I can see a president that looks like he's made out of that stuff, you can bet your ass we'll all be voting for him. The only candidates we seem to get are made out of rotting wood, rusted-through metal, and wet cardboard.
Not everyone who needs to file a claim has lost everything they own and can only file from a public terminal. Even then, many people are only displaced and staying with friends and relatives, using their computers.
If they wanted to get their claims handled quickly, they would make it work for all browsers instead of some people who have no IE having to call in, get a packet mailed out, fill it out, and mail it back.
The father's say in the matter counts for shit, since it's "her body", even if it's half his genetic material going there. The father gets no choice in the matter and still gets to pay some lovely child support for the next 18 years to the woman that "forgot" to take her pill. If she wants to be the final authority, let her take the full responsibility too.
Actually, MIDI is all about being a language of messages and control, not about actual sound signal itself. MIDI is actually what seperates the performance from the sound generation.
If by "mixed company" you mean a group of normal people and people whose singing makes you want to stab your ears with an icepick so they feel better, then yes, I suppose you would.
Holy shite, I read a few of the articles on that site and didn't see a single instance of real science anywhere. Nothing but a crapload of logical fallacies and psuedoscientific ramblings that anyone with a 7th grade education should be able to pick up on. Claiming that crap is scientific, no matter how emphatically, doesn't make it so.
First of all, why would you compare two preachers that are talking about two totally different, completely unrelated things? And second of all, if they were really getting with the times, why are they still around at all? It's a sad testiment to the human race that we still need religion around to tell us how we should behave.
Sounds like everyone here have only been employees and never employers. So it's ok to make a profit as long as you are totally doing all the work yourself?
Yes, more power to us. Like the computer we're typing these posts to/. on. Or the electricity from the power plants to run our computers. And everything else around us. More power to us.
Beyond just "because that's what I choose", what objections would someone have to having "an unknown number of (biological) sons and daughters running around out there" if they 1. were unaware of them and 2. were absolved of any and all legal responsibilites of these people?
The answer is when people found they could get the shit for free and needed to find a way to justify their unethical behavior: easy, just complain that music isn't worth it anymore. I still don't understand why people are complaining that CDs are overpriced because they don't think the music is worth it. If the you think the music sucks, why the fuck are you buying the CD in the first place, or even downloading it for that matter? Buy from the artists you enjoy. If people really gave a damn about the music they liked as much as they profess to, they should be happy to pay for those albums. I don't think even $15 is overpriced for a great artist that I enjoy, but that's just my opinion. Cue the arguments about teenagers with low allowances
And I also don't understand where this mythic $20 CD price across the board comes from. I can't remember paying more than $11-15 for a CD, with the exception of the $19-20 a few of my recent Ayreon purchases were, and those were two-disc albums with cover art and extras.
People don't give a fuck about their music as much as they say they do, they just want some cheap background noise.

No sarcasm here, I really am interested.

You did offer your house, you bet it, and then you were wrong. Hand over the keys. :P
I tried filing a claim.
I used Firefox and my browser was rejected.

You now owe me your house, dumbass.
If someone films it, then at least we have the first indication that it'll be a promising venture, because as we know, if it's adopted by porn...
Yeeeeeeeaaaahhhhhhh!

If you don't want your digital rights eroded, don't abuse them through copyright infringment? With rights come responsibility, heaven forbid.

As long as that rebuilding process doesn't involve any organs derived from stem cell research, right?

I shoulda known clifyt would have to throw his $0.02 in here somewhere. :P

Well duh, what this all really means is that they found out how to make it work at 44 miles per hour.
I think it's a little more extra unnecessarily redundant.
As offtopic as it is, parent really deserves an Insightful mod.
Almost sounds like Christianity, until you hit that last sentence.

An ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure? Better check those conversion rates again...

Won't someone please think of the kittens!
