That's not true! Women have the same legal rights as men. It's the social aspect of Japan that says women should be submissive, frail, quiet, shy, etc. Women are expected to be and taught to be absolutely pathetic creatures, but the law treats them equally.
could they eventually determine the household in which the drugs come from? If they could, we may see a surge of new outhouses. Assuming there aren't chemicals that can be added to the toilet to neutralize/hide this stuff.
claim.NET is portable [...] whilst in reality encouraging the development of completely non-portable.NET apps It's true that Microsoft provides libraries with no specification in.NET, probably with the hopes that developers will become tied to.NET, but they've put them in a "Microsoft" namespace. That makes it easy to avoid them. If you want to produce implementation-neutral code for the Common Language Infrastructure, it's easy to do so. (Mono also has libraries specific to their implementation in the "Mono" namespace.)
While this is a serious issue, it is not an issue with Mono. It doesn't make using Mono any less of a good choice.
Why do you think Mono needs to run programs written for.NET/Windows? G++ can't compile many programs produced by Visual Studio, but I doubt you think G++ "will never be a solution unless Microsoft decides to support it". Why do you treat Mono differently?
Mono isn't intended to run programs written for.NET/Windows, just like G++ isn't intended to compile working programs that use the Windows API. Mono is great for Linux-only or cross-platform software projects, just like G++ is great for Linux-only or cross-platform software projects. Mono works great for projects that aim for compatibility with it, and G++ works great for projects that aim for compatibility with it.
You're biased against the Common Language Infrastructure because it was created by Microsoft. I understand, because I hate Microsoft too, (I use only Linux on my desktop) but the CLI is a really great idea, and Mono is a really fantastic project. Give it a fair chance! Don't write it off just because it can't do something it's not intended to do!
IronPython is very compatible with CPython and it can run on Mono, which is cross-platform and open-source. Perhaps you were thinking of Boo, but it can also run on Mono.
IronPython makes mixing Python with other languages much easier. Imagine coding the backend in C# (or Java or Lisp or whatever you want) and the frontend in Python.
Using a common interpreter will allow the Python project to focus more on the language features and leave the interpreting to others. I think it would be fantastic for all scripting languages to target the CLI. It results in huge performance gains and makes producing new languages much easier. There's no reason for all these languages to have their own interpreter.
The GPLv3 doesn't cover use either. Although it doesn't grant permission to distribute if you do certain things, you are entirely welcome to add all kinds of hardware-locking and use the software yourself.
Alien fucking sucks. They always have. Now now, let's not be hasty. Alienware was getting pretty good reviews for a while back in the day. And they started sucking before Dell got to them, so it's not Dell's fault that they're so terrible now.
I don't know what kind of politicians you've got around in your area, but I've never known the Libertarian Party to be very good at sticking to the libertarian philosophy. They may be a lesser evil than the Democrats or the Republicans, but no political party is going to be the silver bullet that saves America.
the joke the skit is based around is funny for thirty seconds but the skit is seven minutes long That's why I love Weekend Update! They still have stupid guests that do that, but most jokes only last a few seconds. Overall, Weekend Update is the best part of SNL and MadTV.
Try choosing a color sometime. OpenOffice is the only application I've seen in a long time that requires users to add a color to a color list through a completely separate color list editing dialog and then choose that color from the color selection dialog. In a program that isn't so shitty, you'd be able to choose any possible arbitrary color right through the color selection dialog. Choosing a color is much easier even in old crusty shit like Microsoft Paint.
Wasn't that point 3? From the post you replied to:
point 3 would apply as well in that Novel have also published a linux kernel under the terms of the GPL
Yeah, because people were sooooooo happy when we had public hangings. Bring out the children and have a picnic; it's fun for the whole family.
I'll never understand why anybody would support the death penalty when people are so valuable. Slave labor, medical testing, etc. could have a hugely positive impact. And Reiser should be working on ReiserFS right now, not sitting around doing nothing.
I wasn't saying we shouldn't punish people for bad behavior. I was saying our motivation shouldn't be revenge. We should punish people to improve them, not to get pleasure from their suffering.
But... but... the Red Cross does good stuff! How could you possibly ever support suing such nice people?! They're non-profit, so they should get to do whatever they want! So what if they are blatantly violating the law and destroying a company's trademark! Once you've done that much good stuff, haven't you earned the right to go around knocking over whatever you want?!
I've heard talk for years about dropping the 2D stuff from video cards and APIs, but there doesn't really seem to be a push to drop it. Supposedly there's no reason to have separate 2D stuff besides backwards compatibility.
A language is like an RFC. It doesn't change. We got English as it is today from change. Whatever version of English you think is correct would not make sense 200 years ago. And even RFCs are often replaced. And yes I am starting sentences with "and", how do you like that? How about using commas in place of semicolons?
Every natural language was produced through change. You can't stop it from changing.
I hope he who decides about such calamities does not think loss of life is okay as long as we're not the ones who killed them. We should do whatever produces the least deaths, even if it means killing people ourselves.
It also means we should accept a few deaths of ourselves if preventing it would mean killing millions of others. Some of the actions for the "war on terror" are killing many more people than they save.
But what's really amazing is the amount of bs spent trying to justify killing babies. You seem to think it's impossible to justify killing babies, ever, for any reason. What if killing 1 baby prevented the killing of 1 trillion babies? Everything, including killing babies, can sometimes be justified.
You might feel the nuclear bombing of Japan wasn't justified, and that feeling would be entirely rational, but thinking that no killing of babies could ever possibly be justified is not rational.

Are you saying I can get out of any federal case just by showing up at the court house without ID? I would love to hear of somebody trying that.

Same here in Texas. People not eligible to drive can get a card for identification purposes that's much like a driver's license.

Please remember: money wasting prisoners + forced labor = money producing prisoners
We could have companies competing for contracts for prisoners where they paid the state if we just allowed forced labor of prisoners.
I wasn't saying we shouldn't punish people for bad behavior. I was saying our motivation shouldn't be revenge. We should punish people to improve them, not to get pleasure from their suffering.
Here's an idea: How about we not seek revenge, and instead try to, actually, you know... improve society?
No? Hate the idea? Oh well, I figured I'd throw it out there.

In the Beginning...was the Command Line
I've had Java disabled in the browser for months now. Almost nothing uses it anymore.
What kind of horrible torture language would allow ":" as an identifier?! This must be Perl. *shudder*
