We've done some questionable things in the past, and I'm sure we'll continue to stumble, and pick ourselves up, going forward. The one thing that differentiates us if that we're saved via Jesus, and that's an external thing.
Just to void my mod points... this is what scares me about Christianity. It completely removes self responsibility. At the end of the day, a Christian is told repeatedly that they can do what they like up to judgement day, and so long as they say sorry, didn't mean it, it will be forgiven.
Granted, it is assumed that you have to mean the apology, but that isn't the impression most Christians give.
Well, actually we are a whole set of islands, apart from the land border we share with the Irish Republic. What would it take to get us classified officially as an archipelago?
Actually it's in the T&Cs, one reason I held out so long was that I didn't want to use my real name. now I have an account, in breach of those T&Cs.
# Registration and Account Security
Facebook users provide their real names and information, and we need your help to keep it that way. Here are some commitments you make to us relating to registering and maintaining the security of your account:
1. You will not provide any false personal information on Facebook, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission.
2. You will not create more than one personal profile.
3. If we disable your account, you will not create another one without our permission.
4. You will not use your personal profile for your own commercial gain (such as selling your status update to an advertiser).
5. You will not use Facebook if you are under 13.
6. You will not use Facebook if you are a convicted sex offender.
7. You will keep your contact information accurate and up-to-date.
8. You will not share your password, (or in the case of developers, your secret key), let anyone else access your account, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your account.
9. You will not transfer your account (including any page or application you administer) to anyone without first getting our written permission.
10. If you select a username for your account we reserve the right to remove or reclaim it if we believe appropriate (such as when a trademark owner complains about a username that does not closely relate to a user's actual name).
Or possibly it works the other way? You eliminate the disease and people don't worry about having so many children?
How does lowering the population reduce the amount of disease?
And calling quark flavours, strange and charm in the 60s was better? Up and Down were bad enough Top and Bottom often get called Truth and Beauty. At least WIMP and MACHO mean something.....
After all, we know the speed of light to 9 figures already.
Technically it's defined as those 9 figures, and the meter and second are defined in terms of that definition. So really the experiment is badly measuring a defined quantity....
Except the fact that the article is asking for *more open* standards, , which completely invalidates the first sentence fo the last paragraph, if nothing else.
Troll is a bit extream though...
You go back to patronage, and works are funded by the time spent creating them.
That kinda takes out a huge chunk of the middle men, but I'd argue that's a good thing for the creators.
Yes, I create, and yes, I publish under CC.
I think the idea is more like how ports/portage work.
You need a central rsync server, in a specific form. But being open, it gets replicated around the world. So if your current server is down, pick another.
Metronet actually use 8GHz microwaves (I think) rather than standard WiFi, so the installation has to be licensed etc etc, makes for a good signal though, they support upto Gb...

Errrmmm, have you missed the "download this" button on the iPlayer?
Seems to me it would make more sense to just fund MetroNet-like connections out from the towers that already exist.

They *did*, but as it was MAC address based, you just faked the MAC. I had a Linux server/router pluggin years before it was even Virgin.
As others have said, now a days they provide WiFi routers if you ask nicely, and support any number fo machines accessing.
You must have some damned interesting tattoos
Only if the hobbyists are *selling* their software. Giving it away for free completely bypasses this.
On Facebook the norm is to use your real name.

wooosh.
Sure, Apple are past masters at seamless CPU emulation, but that overhead will probably wipe out the benefit of ARM vs. Atom.
Except the people who did Apples last CPU emulation are now owned by IBM....
And calling quark flavours, strange and charm in the 60s was better? Up and Down were bad enough Top and Bottom often get called Truth and Beauty. At least WIMP and MACHO mean something.....
Yes, in that I run services on an Virgin line, have done since it was NTL too....

Your last point though, that's a good valid one.
Because it tastes damn good. A proper black pudding (or bordon noir for the french) is made from pigs eyes and blood, but is similarly tasty.
My question would be: why is eating muscle normal and eating heart (a strong muscle) not?
The short version, don't knock it, 'till you've tried it!

Well those same Dells have eSATA ports you can plug your USB memory stick into....
Non-small people are all idiots? Who knew?

Bring it on. I could see the BBC radio folks taking the place of the big boys when they are mandated to as part of the license. ;P
This Blog Post Has the number to ring if you need it....

Perhaps they don't want Joe Schmo running around screaming "oh Christ he's got a gun" when they see a funny shape they shouldn't?
No, you have "free will" He was only responsible for the Good Stuff, *you* are responsible for everything else.
Lol, how would that help me?
