  1. Re:BIG Mistake on Netflix Creates Qwikster For DVD Only Business · · Score: 1

    They have been wanting to kill off dvd by mail. Qwikster is a tourniquet and the next quarter they will just cut the arm off. I don't think I'll be sticking around once this change goes in.

    You could adblock iframes long ago.

    Respect? Really? That's the word you meant to use? Ah!, perhaps it has a different definition in your part of the world. Okay. I too respect his choice. I respect his complete lack of critical thinking. I respect his slavish adherance to the fairy tales of his childhood.

    Its not in my job description as a human being to judge others beliefs. Feel free to cast the first stone.

    Perhaps this might help, there are some verse by verse comparisons of different wording. Although there appear to be greater gaps in other texts pertaining to Mary which I am unable to find right now.

    For me, I have faith in the Bible because (by faith) I have chosen to believe it is God's literal word. As such, I will follow its teachings the best I can. However, if I believed that the Bible had man's interpretation in it, then I would view it as any other book. For me it's all or nothing.

    The bible as it is read now is mostly based on the King James version or some relatively recent variant of the same. Even though great effort was made to make an accurate translation obviously english was not the language these stories was written in by the original authors and hence much is presumably lost during the effort.

    I respect the fact that you have chosen to believe in the bible as a literal work. But certainly it must be clear that the book did not come shipped directly from GOD in your favorite language, and that man has had a hand in organizing both content and the language as he sees fit. Diff King James version and some of the more recent Methodist texts for a good example of use of clever editing.

  6. Re:Portage Consistency on Gentoo 2005.1, Experimental Live CD Released · · Score: 1

    You can always quick package your current version before upgrading, just in case the new one is broken and you need to get back up quick. Portage has excellent tools and documentation to help one avoid creating a mess for themselves.

    The synaptics driver is well supported with xorg. I have an alps touchpad on my pavilion zv5000 and all its features are supported.

    You don't even have to do that you can copy the image from the livecd. Which is basically a genkernel, so If you are installing 2005.0 you would have a very recent kernel.

    You don't have to compile anything with gentoo to get up and running if you RTFM and download the packages cd along with your install image. You can have a system up and running in a few hours. Then if you wish you can rebuild all your packages over a weekend while you are out fishing.
