Not much to relearn? Gimp throws the user for a loop the first time he even tries to save an image he has just edited. If they can't even get something as basic as saving a file correct, what other surprises are in store for the average user?
Here's a tip from a grownup about avoiding spoilers: if you haven't read a particular book/seen a particular movie/etc. and don't want the ending or any plot twists spoiled, avoid reading online discussions of said book/movie/etc.
Your name (or anything under 30 characters) will be written, in DNA, into the glowing plant genome!!
Wouldn't it be cool if some of the "junk DNA" we see in modern living things contained names or messages from some advanced prehistoric race which genetically manipulated life on earth?
You over-estimate the intelligence and reasoning ability of over half of the United States population. Once the word "lucifer-anything" is heard, millions of brains will switch off.
If the "only people doing the work" group could get the same or better results than the "typical American corporate structure" group, do you really think that the corporation would not use the former and increase their profits overnight?
Google Inc has lately told app developers that they are not allowed to present ads to Google Glass users and they are also not permitted to sell users' personal and private information for the fulfillment of advertising needs.
Decisions like this should, by law, be in the hands of the users.
Quantum particles do not become "entangled" so that one entangled particle's spin magically becomes the opposite of the measured entangled particle's spin. The US Government has a secret program in charge of flipping the spins of quantum particles in order to make them appear entangled in order to benefit the rich and powerful.
If that is the case, maybe a good question to ask might be whether Straczynski has ever considered "crowdsourcing" the creation of new CG models by fans? (that is, if he has any clout in the matter)
"Judging by every metric, decriminalization in Portugal has been a resounding success," says Glenn Greenwald, an attorney, author and fluent Portuguese speaker, who conducted the research. "It has enabled the Portuguese government to manage and control the drug problem far better than virtually every other Western country does."
The Cato paper reports that between 2001 and 2006 in Portugal, rates of lifetime use of any illegal drug among seventh through ninth graders fell from 14.1% to 10.6%; drug use in older teens also declined. Lifetime heroin use among 16-to-18-year-olds fell from 2.5% to 1.8% (although there was a slight increase in marijuana use in that age group). New HIV infections in drug users fell by 17% between 1999 and 2003, and deaths related to heroin and similar drugs were cut by more than half. In addition, the number of people on methadone and buprenorphine treatment for drug addiction rose to 14,877 from 6,040, after decriminalization, and money saved on enforcement allowed for increased funding of drug-free treatment as well.
"There is no doubt that the phenomenon of addiction is in decline in Portugal," said Joao Goulao, President of the Institute of Drugs and Drugs Addiction, a press conference to mark the 10th anniversary of the law.
The number of addicts considered "problematic" -- those who repeatedly use "hard" drugs and intravenous users -- had fallen by half since the early 1990s, when the figure was estimated at around 100,000 people, Goulao said.
Portugal's holistic approach had also led to a "spectacular" reduction in the number of infections among intravenous users and a significant drop in drug-related crimes, he added.
When there is only one way to express an idea or function, then everyone is free to do so and no one can monopolize that expression.
What if there are only two ways? Is everyone supposed to hope their implementation is the non-copyrighted one? If not, then what if there are three ways? Or four? Five? When does the stupidity of copyright law actually start applying to code? Is it really when there are just two ways of doing the same thing?
What does 9/11 have to do with Iraq? Nothing. So why are you bringing it up? No one said it did. No one thinks it did.
I don't think anyone has to really do much to disprove your assertions that no one said Iraq was linked to 9/11 and that no one believed Iraq was linked to 9/11 beyond suggesting you google "iraq 9/11".
What you're doing here is akin to claiming the earth's atmosphere is 90% hydrogen cyanide. It's so obviously wrong that there's almost no need to point that fact out.
You can buy a link to a digital copy of this 21 minute movie from the film's website for about $3 via Paypal/credit card/whatever. Please consider dropping a few bucks their way if you watch this film. This is an independent short film, not a piece of shit from the corrupt Hollywood machine, and its creators deserve monetary recognition from those in society who appreciate the film.
By all means continue to pirate Hollywood movies, however.
Have you been living under a rock over the past year? There are those in power who are just *itching* to invade Iran. If they didn't have their hands full with Afghanistan and Iraq, there'd likely be boots on the ground right now.

But he was just writing with character!
The company can pay the current owner whatever he wants for the domain, or the company can live without the domain name. The end.

for the first part of your opening sentence.
Learn to internet, please.
Does anyone here actually want to talk about the movie? :-P

Yes.

Wake up, sheeple!

What are you, a worthless DEA shill?
After five years:.
After ten years:
These stupid Slashdot AF stories are just so god damn lame.

The OP said adopted not invented. It is very much indeed used as a slur against Christians on internet forums.

I would have chosen the name Pope Satan I, just for the lulz.
Ha! We've got him now!
Elf needs mod points -- badly.

It's even funnier in print.

Shoot. Would have been nice to have snuck in a post like this before you realized your mistake:
