CO2 DOES NOT CAUSE GLOBAL WARMING. I'm appalled to see so many on slashdot giving in to this obvious bs.
Every other body in the solar system has gone up in temperature by ~2degrees celsius in the last few decades, and all the ice core samples we've seen show that C02 only correlates to temperature increases after the fact, that is once the temperature increases, more CO2 is introduced into the atmosphere via ocean trapped CO2 being released.
Too bad the Prius gets less miles per gallon than cars that were being built in the 70's, as well as the fact that the battery is a HUGE environmental hazard and has to be replaced every ~7 years.
CO2 has almost no effect on global climate. There is absolutely no proof of it having anything more than a negligible effect. It's already been covered on slashdot that the ice core samples all show that CO2 levels rise AFTER a global temperature increase, lagging it by a few decades/hundred years, and that every planet in the solar system, as well as most moons, have increased in temperature by ~2degrees celsius in the last few decades.
He refused to appear on Attack of the Show after saying he'd fight one of the hosts. The hosts called Seanbaby up and had him come and guest host the show, and Seanbaby used to train heavily in muay thai and the like, and as soon as Uwe Boll found out he refused to appear. The guy is a pussy.
The lines belong to them, especially the fiber lines, so what fucking right does the government have to tell a company it isn't allowed to use it's own property as it wants even though it is not infringing on anyone's rights? The government has no place in this matter.
That game is over 10 year old, same with AC, AC still has a vibrant PVP environment on Darktide, and UO got raped by carebear patch after carebear patch.
Asheron's Call's Darktide (PVP) server has been said by nearly all who played and knew of/kept up with/were involved with the politics and everyday events to be the greatest game they have ever played, people from all games. FFA PVP with no restrictions. There was a large 'zerg' allegiance known as blood which ran the server somewhat for a while, but everyone not in blood banded together to fight them forming another super large allegiance (guild) along with numerous other smaller ones allying themselves with them. So yes, the FFA PVP system does work longterm, just as it did in UO, just as it will in DF.
This is only a problem in a game like WoW where you can't lose items on death (specifically to other players) and are built around a constant grind to get that next tier of armor or those next few points in the battlegrounds to get that next tier of weapons. Darkfall, while long in development, is a game that offers complete freedom to the players to run their world as they see fit. If they wish to just be in chaos all the time and killing each other willy nilly, then so be it! If they wish to form a world full with alliances throwing blows at each other here and there to capture more resources (which is the hope/intent of the game) and build more cities, then they can! You can be a roving assassin picking off lone targets who venture too far from a town by themselves, or you can join a massive player army to raid enemy towns and fortresses.
They're all psychos when it comes to foreign policy. Obama has no record on anything controversial for the specific reason that he refuses to vote (when he was in the state legislature and now in congress) and simply marks Present on most of the votes. He is just another asshole playing the politician game, it just so happens he is a good orator and everyone thinks he's saying amazing things, when in actually nothing of substance is said.
The Pearl Harbor thing, if it's what I think he said (that we knew/provoked it) then it's true. FDR wanted to get into WW2 so bad he circumvented congress and antagonized the japanese into thinking they HAD to attack us or be strangled to death.
Hillary and Obama are just as big warhawks as him. Atleat he is upfront about it, and he isn't for a welfare state giving illegal immigrants free everything + id's without even becoming citizens/naturalized. So I'm either writing ron paul in, or I'm voting for McCain. If I were to consider voting for hillary or obama, it's so they would be killed much sooner than they already need to be.
I mean to prevent these companies/people who hold patents in shit but refuse to act on them at all. If you get a patent, you should have 6months to prove you mean to act on it either by royalty system or by your own production of said product.
You should have a set timelimit on using it. Either you exercise your patent right and setup royalty shit with other companies, or you start using the patented technology, otherwise it's fair game.
What bush has done is insane, but McCain is the only front running candidate that supports Instant Runoff Voting, which puts him miles ahead of everyone else. I thinks he's batshit insane, but only for the war in iraq/foreign policy shit. Otherwise he's ok.
You're supporting someone who freely admits he wants to steal more of your money (taxes) to pay for people who can't even handle taking care of themselves. Please show me the logic in this.
I do care what happens to other people, but when my money is taken from me at the tip of a gun to take care of people who can't even handle getting a job I get pissed.
Get real jobs and either get insurance through work or start shelling out the ~150-200 a month it costs to get it on your own. There is NO REASON not to have a job in this country if you are anything less than a quadriplegic, and even then you can still get one. There is always work, it's just a matter of being willing to do it, and knowing about it. If these people are too lazy to get real jobs or to even look around for other/better jobs than they have now, then no, I don't give a fuck. That's their choice, it's not my job to take care of someone who can't take care of themself.
And all the people who need important surgeries and shit done NOW come to the US to get it done cause otherwise they would die waiting for their surgery/needstogetdonenow shit.
5. Israel probably wouldn't survive without US backing.
I'm sorry, but that's the dumbest thing I have read on here in a long time.
Israel fought for it's independence in the 40s against an alliance of numerous arab nations by itself, with no fucking assistance whatsoever. Truman interfered with arms shipments so they wouldn't get to israel (arms bought from arms manufacturers) even! They also ran house on all the arab nations again in 67. And when all else fails, they have the Samson Option. Israel has a stockpile of ~300 nuclear weapons, and their sole purpose for existing is that in the even israel is on the verge of destruction/annihilation, all those nuclear warheads/weapons are used to destroy whatever nation/nations are attacking it.
Israel doesn't need anyones help, don't you dare think for a moment they rely on us. Mossad is the most elite intelligence service in the world, the IDF is one of the most elite fighting forces, and the Israeli modifications on all technology/equipment they get is insane. They are just fucking fine on their own, and we SHOULD cut all aid to them.
Give me a break with your morality garbage. Targetting civilian population centers is how WW2 bombing was done, and for good reason. Demoralizing the populace to break their will to continue fighting.
Nuclear power is attractive cause it IS cheap, and it IS safe, and it produces very very little waste, especially if you use Integral Fast Reactors and other more modern and advanced types of reactors that can burn reprocessed fuel and non-uranium/plutonium fuel as wel.
The civilian population is the support for the military. They are a legitimate target, especially when the military itself is so much more powerful than your own forces.

Most of them aren't looking to conserve at all. They just want to be seen as 'cool' or 'hip' or yes, 'caring', by owning a hybrid.

Screw chemical rockets. Just use Nuclear Rockets.

Are you against Instant Runoff Voting? Something both Barack and Hillary seem to be against.
