Even so, it is wrong to ridicule Christianity. Most Christians simply laugh off this guy, myself included, even down here in the 'Bible Belt'. Trust me, he is all politics and this has nothing to do with his Christianity.
Thanks for disrespecting Christianity, which has nothing to do wih this in the same way that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism. If faith is/was at all mentioned it was only as a mask for pure politics my friend.
Actually the tape in question was originally invente4d by the military during World War II and called duck tape as water 'rolled off' of it like a ducks back. It was later rechristened as duct tape after the war when it proved valuable for duct repairs as well, so both names are right.
Navajo would be cool, except for the tiny detail that it has no written form, which was one of the reasons the US chose it for the code talkers in WWII on the Pacific front
Even if they are propaganda, they do not even come close to the level o xinhua. First, America has this little thing called the first amendment which allows the media to say what they want about the news. Second, they are not owned by a tyrranical, communist, freedom fearing regime.
Does Blockbuster demand that you work for them to distribute content for 30x the time you are allowed to view it? I didn't think so. I would be totally cool with this if they didn't force you to seed against your own will, stealing your bandwidth. That's pretty lame.
According to netcraft, Slashdot is the 47th most popular web site they track (about 1/2 of the top 10 are google, I swear) whereas digg falls in at 1913. Get the facts before you troll buddy.
Well, firefox is one of the few notable pieces of OSS that have spread so amazingly fast without slowing down, and is already one of the most popular OSS works. I agree that an RC shouldn't make front page though, maybe developers.
JPEG and PNG are totally different. JPEGs are compressed and lossy, so they are better for photos, and also consume way less bandwidth and storage space as they produce much smaller files. PNG, OTOH is lossless so it is bigger and probably undesirable for photos. Comparing the two is apples to oranges.
While you are right about MS, considering the context I would advise you to leave town for a while and keep your head town till the dust settles. Then return under a pseudonym.
In personal experience, on a different note, MS office is a little snappier than OOo and while some things I think it could do a lot better (or even not do) It does have many upsides, not to mention a large, pervasive corporation to call for support.
You hit the nail on the head my freind. You don't have to be a suit to wear a suit. Your don't even have to wear a suit. Casual clothing is fine, and looking nice is always a plus in a work environment, excluding manual labor.
I personally don't think uptime is of utmost importance, but some do. However, really long uptimes indicate stability, and under/.s much heavier load it has still surpassed digg. I understand it's not a fair comparison, but I was just pointing out an interesting fact.

Here's some good reading that you'd take some benefit from.
Thanks for clearing that up, it's just that you came across as anti-christian at first,m instead of anti-religion-as-a-political-tool.

Sorry, I was unaware of that, I'll look into it.

1. Download perl
2. start coding
just kidding, perl is awesome, albeit cryptic at times.

It's doomed.
Yeah, and how is Star Wars: A New Hope not there??? WTF?
WHOOSH!

Note to self: Don't even think about it. You remember what happened the last time don't you?
This is a senseless strategy; everyone I know, and I assume most people, use the "most downloaded songs" indicator and user reviews from the web.
Let's call it "The Babelfish"

not efficient. When it can be denoted in pure binary, then you have efficiency. It's not like jabber doesn't in the end rely on IP anyways.

... or do half of those concepts look like George Foreman Grills???

I know that, but it refers to the fact that most languages are today written in C, e.g. Python, Perl, et al.
