Why do German scientists seem to accomplish more breakthroughs in science and technology than other cultural groups?
Turkish "guest workers" in Germany have taken all of the garbage-man and street-sweeper jobs, so the youth of German heritage are forced into scientific, professional, and high-tech jobs.
For the sarcasm challenged: No, I am not slamming Turks. I am slamming the right-wingers who complain about all of the "good" jobs that go to guest workers.
How can you not be certain whether you're an Australian lawyer or not? That seems rather like the kind of thing I'd be sure of
In an effort to inject some integrity into the legal system, the Australian government picks people at random and designates them lawyers. You too could be an Australian lawyer, and the notice just hasn't arrived yet. Before you laugh, many countries choose jurors this way, why not lawyers?
The carbon that you are emitting is carbon (CO2) that the plants sucked out of the atmosphere as part of their photosynthesis. This is not a net carbon emission.
Increased O2 levels won't be a problem, unless we store the H2 forever. As soon as you burn the H2, you are pulling O2 out of the atmosphere, re-creating H20.
Funding should not have been withdrawn. It plunged Palestine into an impossible situation.
Democracy is not magically exempt from Life's Rule#1: Your actions have consequences. Most children have some understanding of this rule by age four. We would be doing the Palestinians a grave disservice if we told them that they are somehow exempt from this rule. Giving a child everything that they want, and never correcting them or teaching them how to behave in society, is not a favor to the child.
Lunix will then acquire the worldwide stigma of being the crappy OS of the unwashed masses who can't afford anything better. It will be like comparing a Lunix Pinto to a Microsoft BMW.
Linux will be the OS of the unwashed masses, and of the supercomputer clusters. Doesn't that mean that Microsoft is more like a Yugo than a BMW?
Wow! If your best means of proving that Windows is easier to use than Linux, is some corner-case about a Dance Dance Lemmings gaming peripheral, then Linux is even closer to WorldDomination(tm) than I thought.
Yeah, right...because if history teaches us anything, its that Linux is easier to use then Windows.
If "easier to use" means "requires less knowledge", then Linux might not be "easier to use". But if "easier to use" means "consistently behaves the way a knowledgable person expects", then Linux is much "easier to use".
I feel guilty for every single Microsoft sufferer out there. Myself included
You know that there is a cure for M$, right? Just drink two shots of "the Linux Koolaid" every day for three weeks. Your unnatural masochistic urges to use expensive, defective software will subside quickly.
Only when their velocity exceeds 75,000 AU per parsec.
But AUs and parsecs are both measures of distance, whereas your statement would require that parsecs be a measure of time. I know George Lucas screwed it up; was this supposed to be a funny allusion?

Yes, the GP forgot the all-important: IANAMG disclaimer.
It's the Meliocentric model.
The government requiring disclosures on certain kinds of speech is regulating speech. It is a rather mild form of regulation, but it is regulation.
I didn't know Lexus made dump trucks.

Doublewideband is only useful for viewing incestuous porn and YouTube'd episodes of Dukes of Hazard.

In fact, it works so well that it has a higher repeat-customer rate than Taco Bell. You can't buy that kind of brand loyalty.
Just wondering, is it possible in your worldview for a three year old child to be "enemy"?

The active RADAR is aboard an AWACS aircraft that is coordinating the battle. The F-35 can remain stealthy.

Some of us don't think that "survival of the richest" is the best model for a society.

Methinks someone is tired of being 'corrected' by IANAL.

Are you kidding? We'll correct you even if you're right!
