The DMCA does not update US copyright law, which is covered under USC Title 17. The DMCA made no modifications or amendments to this title, and never mentions anything about protecting copyrights. It only mentions protecting copyright-holders from having their copyright protection methods circumvented.
The gyroscope idea seems like a valid possibility, seeing how WarioWare Twisted and some Yoshi game that are soon to be released on the GBA will have gyroscopes built into the cart. Nintendo likes weird things...
Jesus teaches in parables.
We are meant to be like Jesus.
We should teach in parables.
QED.
To say that there is only one way to interpret the Bible is to have accepted everything in it without even once considering what it might mean. Example: Two whore sisters, or two whore nations?
OK, fine. You go tell the Pope that he failed as a Christian because he didn't convert all the Jews. I'll take a few steps back.
Go tell all the people at my church that they're not Christian, and they're going to Hell, because they don't believe every single thing you said. Yes, there's nothing more Fundamentally Christian than telling other religions that they're Satan-inspired and that yours is the only right way.
What caused the Big Bang? If the universe were infinitely small, and space-time so tiny that time was essentially infinite, and the universe didn't immediately explode, wouldn't that mean that there was a long period when the universe was stable? Why would it suddenly explode outward?
For that matter, where did the singularity COME from? Evolution and creationism aren't trying to answer the same question here. Evolution only deals with life. Creationism deals with the entire universe. That's not to say that I believe in it.
The possibility of man creating a machine that creates a superior being to man is not fiction - it's just a possibility.
Evolution is not random. The set of features that help a creature survive are not random. They are defined by the conditions in which the creature must survive. To place a probability on something evolving is unscientific. Either it will or it won't. For any given characteristic, there may be a 100% chance that it will exist SOMEWHERE. The determining factor is whether that characteristic is passed on.
In other words, your reasoning falls apart because the chance that a human being would evolve is 1:1. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here.
P.S.: If there is a Creator and a creation, that Creator MUST, by default, be more powerful and better than its creation.
Someone didn't watch The Matrix...
P.P.S.: Could it have happened? Yes, but did it happen? It'd be more likely that my library came about from an explosion in a room with a printing press. DNA points clearly to intelligent design.
You seem to be forgetting a fundamental aspect of evolution: DNA that produces unsuccessful species is discarded. Which is the same as saying that books formed in an exploding library, that were filled only with gibberish, or which did not have a coherent plot, would not be kept.
It is used to enable freely available software to be configured and built easily on supported platforms.
I'm talking about a program that tailors itself to your system, by using as much automatic configuration as possible. pkgsrc doesn't support everything.
It all comes down to the difference between seeing groups of letters as words or sounds. "Cider" would be a natural choice for a word (just fill in the letters), but "coulder" seems more natural for a sound (at least for me).
Actually, the DMCA is not related to copyright. It's related to copyright circumvention. If a person downloads a movie/song off the internet, or shares a song, they are NOT in violation of the DMCA, regardless of what the *AA want you to think.
The DMCA makes it illegal to either willfully circumvent a copyright prevention technology, or to create a technology that does. Most CDs still have no copyright protection. If you share or download a ripped non-protected CD, you are not violating the DMCA, because you didn't circumvent any protection measures. If you share a movie, however, it is likely that you have somehow violated the DMCA; downloading a movie, however, does not.
Remember, kids: the DMCA does not modify USC Title 17 (federal copyright law). It has nothing to do with the enforcement of copyrights.
Because the 'o' sound is more natural to English speakers. Cdr sounds more natural as 'coulder' than 'cider', because the 'o' sound is produced as a natural progression from a hard 'c'. The 'i' has to be inserted arbitrarily.
Not true. Most cell phones with GPS transmitters have an option to select whether you want it to be on only during 911 or other emergency calls, or at all times. Obviously the distinction is made because it IS used to trace 911 calls.

The 'unpossible' thing comes from The Simpsons, when Ralph Wiggum gets his report card and says "Me fail English? That's unpossible!"
That strange 3D-rendered film became the show "Tripping the Rift" on the Sci-Fi Channel. It lasted a single season, then fizzled out.
You must remember that purple is the official "pimp" color, though. And, of course, the pimp is strong in that one. Samuel L. Jackson, biatch.
Try again!

101 INT. CORUSCANT-SENATE OFFICE BUILDING-MAIN HALLWAY-DAY
They enter the main hallway of the Senate Office Building. They pass SEVERAL SENATORS, including REPRESENTATIVE JAR JAR BINKS from Naboo.
JAR JAR: Helloo Annie. Good en to see yousa . .
The Gungan waves to Anakin.
ANAKIN: Hi, Jar Jar.
JAR JAR: Oopsin da Chancellor!! So sorry, Your Highness, sir.
Anakin turns back to the Chancellor.
etc.
Note to all: HE DOES NOT DIE.
I heard something about Yoda and a greased-up doll... and the possibility that Mace Windu is gay.

You said "under-informated." Sorry, but you lose the debate for the lack of intelligent design in your post.

If I say that I'm from five minutes in the future, is it even possible for them to prove me wrong??
Now if they make a similar project for the average end user that has the simplicity of Gentoo's emerge system, but is cross-platform, I'm sold.
O_O... You know about John Lowther... who are you??

Oddly enough we only got into *very* basic LISP in my PL class. I love that 'basic' LISP can be enough to write an interpreter, though :B
