All my American friends and I love bashing the US! My history teacher bashes every president we've had, and he's as American as you get. (Today we proved that Lincoln was as close to a dictator as we've ever had in the US and might have possibly saved the entire 20th century) I think everyone can bash their own country, and most are OK about others poking fun at them, but some people just have no sense of humor, like some Americans I know.
They're just waiting for the prophesied one to come and restore balance. Or was that the dark side? Either way he'll probably end up fixing that problem to so they've got nothing to worry about.
So obviously the world's most powerful military with the world's most advanced technology would wipe the floor with an army of underfunded, underequipped men whose most powerful weapon is a rocket launcher.
(I am ONLY playing devil's advocate. A 'War on Terror' will never be won, but that doesn't make it worthless. We'll never win the War on Drugs, so why try if you use that logic?)
That's because everyone knows that infantry are only there to protect the canons! A few falconets will solve your problem, assuming you are talking about AoE3.
I personally lean towards the Republican side more often and not, and I am ashamed at the PATRIOT ACT. Whatever happened to the principle of minimal government interference in the lives of its people? I'm sure they are trying to do what is best, that I never doubt for most people (I think all Democrats and others with whom I disagree still want the best for America). I just know that their judgement is sorely lacking.
I fee so young when we have these topics pop up. My first PC was a 233Mhz pentium mmx, and all I did was play SimCity. Man, if I had been programming back then I would pwn!
Nazi Germany was not by any means capitalist, and neither was imperial japan. And I didn't say only communists. The USSR murdered at least 15 million undere Stalin, and have you forgot about all of the terror run regimes in Africa? Those are by no means capitalist either. Of course you could bring up General Pinochet, but while a free marketeer he did not reign over a free people.
You are my hero. Even if capitalism does harm people, show me a capitalist or otherwise free nation that has killed more innocent people, either its own or those of another nation thatn any major communist or otherwise oppressive regime.
All of the controversy over the GPL3 isnt so much caused by the details, but by the underlying mentalities. RMS is more of the belief that freedom is a necessity and everyone should do everything in an open, free manner, and that people can't be trusted. Torvalds sees freedom as more of a tool, a bonus, and people/businesses are generally trustworthy. I like to think of it that way, and that is why I prefer BSD/MIT style over other licences. Businesses will always make proprietary software, that won't change. Proprietary isn't bad, and prohibiting it only restricts what the user/developer can do.
Most Christians are, myself included, and 99% of all churches as well. It's truly sad that a vocal minority could make it seem that all Christians are fanatic nuts like this. It's like calling someone a terrorist simply for being a Muslim. I don't know about these nuts, but the God I serve doesn't punish people on Earth as that is nothing in comparison to Heaven or Hell.
Ewww... Mick Jagger naked. I'm gonna go sit in a corner for the rest of the day now, silently crying to myself at the loss of whatever semblance of innocence I had left. If it actually happens, then I guess I'll implode.
Holy fuck! My head asplode. That was seriously probably the worst website evar, not to mention the guy can't write a single full sentence. It's all run ons, and at least 1.00000000001 times as bad as the worst thing I've ever seen on slashdot. That guy used way too much LSD.

Sometimes insightful is a mod's way of saying 'funny, but it deserves a karma bonus too'

Back in the days before pictures on the net, we had ascii pr0n
The obvious solution is to introduce another species to eat the frogs. Then it's your kids' problem, not yours.

I honestly would not be surprised to find out that thinksecret is owned and operated by Apple
Lies!!! Comcast told me the future arrived this morning, everyday! And Mark Hamill agreed!
I don't totally agree with him, but I am more inline with his mentality that RMS's
I, along with many users of minority OSs or software couldn't care less if it is the majority. I just want a better alternative. I want choice.
Why are you making grand, generally false assumptions? I'll safely assume you don't know many Muslims.

Obviously God has forgiven them, or punished them enough. A 30+ year worldwide killing plague is a good chunk of our 6000 year history.
Imagine a beowulf cluster of those!!! Hangover + droning buzz == OMFGLOLWTFBBQ pain!
Obviously you helped him empty that whiskey bottle.

No, but I'm sure all combat vets know it was a golden injury!
