But it sounded quite similar to all the statements I've heard that Linux natively supports many drivers that Windows does not, and that therefore Linux driver support is superior.
Then try Linux, and you'll never complain about the Windows driver situation again... Yeah. Cause then it'll be Linux that you're complaining about.
I mean seriously, when you have driver troubles in Linux, it's NOT going to be solved by running a self-executable installer downloaded from the hardware manufacturer.
First, there is no difference between reason and primary goal. In a very basic way that is correct. Goals are justified. Building a new government is justified by the fact that we destroyed the old government. But we're talking about the justification for destroying the old government.
While I would agree that these are statements showing that it was justified (at least partly) on the basis of building a democratic government in Iraq, does it precede the justification for stopping Saddam's weapons programs? The poster (imkonen) is arguing that someone is stating (post-Saddam) that [neocons] "insist that the single most important reason we invaded Iraq was to establish Democracy". My question was really (in that context) to that point.
Frankly, I don't think I've ever seen anyone say that "the single most important reason we invaded Iraq was to establish democracy". I must have never met any of these "neocons". Do they only exist on an imaginary plane? It seems politics have become quite slanted due to straw men. Straw men who make politics an idiot's game. Instead of imaginary friends many people have imaginary enemies. Just don't super-impose your imaginary political enemy on me.
So umm, when did Bush|Cheney|Snow|Whomever try to tell us that establishing a democracy in Iraq was the reason when invaded, and not just name it as a primary goal?
Actually, a game interface in the email client might be kinda fun... "deleting" SPAMs by shooting them with missiles and lasers, and watching them explode in balls of flame might relieve some workplace tension. People who aren't interested in that kind of thing would soon find it a task. Damnit, I have to go blast SPAM out of my email box again.
But then maybe that would create an opportunity for gamers ply their trade. I'd like to give you my resume, I was in the top 5% in my class on Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Then if you want to clean your mailbox yourself, you'd have turn off spam filtering. I'm saving that one for later.
Fear of violating a lousy law that's practically unenforceable is bordering on irrational. It's only irrational if you never aspire to graduate from your mother's basement.
People who aspire to great things need to cover their asses, or stupid decisions can become their downfall. (Who's gonna bother with the 32 year old geek in his mother's basement?) When you're successful you're a target.
I bought that phone for my wife and when we decided to go with a standard Alltel plan it was easily switched over. (Although they couldn't do that at their local service center, we called customer support and they arranged it in just a few minutes.)
I believe this is the whole point of the proposed tiered internet. Because providers have grossly oversold available bandwidth they're looking for ways to cover it up.
So of course "Net Neutrality" requires additional bandwidth.
Pyramids, on the other hand, never really caught on. Yeah. So obviously they shouldn't be among the 7 wonders of the world.
You know, it's kind of hard to reproduce something that we don't have the technology to accomplish. I think that was kind of the point as to why they were one of the great wonders of the world. Even in the space age, no one knows how it was even possible to construct them.
We can send machines to Mars, but we don't have an effin' clue how the pyramids were constructed.
I think it misses one of the most important truths there is to know! The truth that you're always right and nothing exists outside of your observations?
and then hold them accountable for preventing it from melting Not exactly.
Let them have it. Then convince the idiotic masses that, since Russia is melting it's polar cap, we need to launch a preemptive strike against Russia before they flood our coastal cities.
I'm a gamer. Until things change I'm stuck using M$ OS. That's what they're counting on. Game companies won't work harder to make games run multi-platform if you'll just give in to use Windows, like everyone else.
The only way it WILL change is if there is a mass migration of users who completely swear off MS. There has to be resolution, not reluctance.
Now, repeat after me. If I buy a Windows game, it may not function in the next version of Windows which will be forced upon me.
I don't care for my software to become obsolete due to the unavailability of the platform it was designed on. Fortunately, Linux has an answer for that.
By "appointing George W. Bush" you mean "stop the recount madness"? How many times do you think is fair to recount the votes? Twelve was not enough for you?
After all the recounts, Bush was still ahead in the precinct in question, on which the entire election hung.

Maybe my sarcasm detector does need a tune up.

What, you thought that they were going to go in there with guns blazing and then, when there is no government or law left, just leave town?
The plan to establish a democratic government in Iraq was a part of the plan from the start. And now it's just what they have left to do.
Wires on a computer, bad? You should see my entertainment center.
And I'm still not interested in combining my TV and DVD player into one component.

See Miss Nevada.
Perhaps this might be a trial to see if there's an audience for a full restart?
Similary to TracPhone, Alltel has a plan called SimpleFreedom with phones starting at $20 from Wal-Mart.
I bought that phone for my wife and when we decided to go with a standard Alltel plan it was easily switched over. (Although they couldn't do that at their local service center, we called customer support and they arranged it in just a few minutes.)
And he secretly forged a master connection.
One connection to rule them all... and in the darkness bind them.

Best one I've seen all day.

No need to wonder?
At first, I was thinking it was some type of pasta.
Well he should be banned for talking shit. That not sportsman-like conduct.
I should have clarified.
RE: Intel's Penryn family mentioned in the summary. Yeah, AMD may have higher manufacturing costs, but they're cheaper! DUR!
Lowering the costs of manufacturing may be nice, but I don't think it's a particularly significant factor in their pricing model.
Thanks, anyways.
Let them have it. Then convince the idiotic masses that, since Russia is melting it's polar cap, we need to launch a preemptive strike against Russia before they flood our coastal cities.
While that's an interesting question, I don't think it should be a consideration for suppressing or delaying the production of the drug.
If it comes to it, I'd rather die from cancer 5 years after a heart attack rather than die from the same heart attack.
