You know what made me decide? The lack of imperial evidence for a bunch of parts that the pro-flood people use. They think that all animals were herbivores back then. That's why the animals peacefully reproduced. No evidence needed. They simply make these "fit" statements and it's looked at as fact to some people. craziness. That's just one out of the many reasons why it's not believed as much, thanks to science. I don't even understand why christians get in an argument over this stuff, because with a supernatural god, empirical scientific evidence is no longer needed. Am I right with that one?
And out of the blue, here's a link to an organized debate on the richarddawkins.net forum; the creationist using everything that arminw just stated, and shown that it is all old theories, quick assumptions, and unlinkable evidence. http://www.richarddawkins.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=10675 An interesting read to say the least.:)
Nope, unfortunately the servers don't come with dedicated video cards. So no Aero. Or wait.. that just means it's not "Vista Premium" capable... *dreams of the profits of selling 20K vista licenses would bring in* ..muahahaha...hahahah......HAHAHAHAHAHAHA*snort*HAHAHAHAHAAHAAA!
sure.. every server has at least a geforce 9 series. you're dumb. The last thing you want a server in a processing cluster to do is process polygons.
Fuck, I can't believe I had to even explain myself... As you can see your explanation lacks knowledge.
Using stem cells to repair brain damage is experimental at the moment. As to using it to restore personality - it would depend on what you mean.
For example, when people lose their personality due to Alzheimer's disease, the location to where their personality is stored isnt damaged per-say, they end up losing synaptic connections between the neurons and neurofibrillary tangles start to develop. If these were restored through stem cells, the personality is restored.
So I guess what I'm saying is that as long as where personality is stored isn't physically destroyed, and studies in neuron restoration improve, it can be possible to give their personalities back.
hehe. last time I checked, breast implants are completely artificial. If they have invented natural growing breast implants, let my girlfriend know about it!
You really think my tax money should be going towards a soldier's surgery to repair his chopped off dick because he wanted to get blown by some iraqi hooker during her pms stage? I don't think so.
Now attaching a 16 inch titanium alloy based cock onto the soldier, that's something I will pay for. Especially if he becomes the next "Nick Manning".
ughh. don't ask. *nawcom struggles to make his way into the kitchen for some coffee*
I wonder why no conservative people in congress who have personal man-crushes on jesus are yelling out, "STOPPPPP!!"
Yeah, when I said "people", I meant men only. From what I've heard (to my disagreement) from an ass-tard relative is that you aren't conserving anything when you vote for a woman.
that's strange, wine, from what i know, has no direct link to the window manager you choose to run on X. hell, I have at times set up startx options so it doesn't run a window manager, it simply fills the root background black or whatever wallpaper i want, and it launches the game via wine.
I'm the blackbox/fluxbox/enlightenment user myself, so I don't have any experience with using tab on freebsd; I'm just referring to what i know about the wine source code. If there is an issue with tab window manager, it has to have been fixed by now:)
i assume you are referring to VMware Fusion? from what i read, directx support is better on that. I haven't tried it out, for i only have a gma950. Don't expect to play games that well that need graphics acceleration, for the intel gpus are pretty damn weak.
I did see someone play portal via vmware fusion, it was on above-average graphics settings, 1280x800, and it wasn't lagging. If he ran it on windows though, he would have the highest settings set. Still, it was pretty impressive, the quality was the same as when i run portal on my single core athlon64 with an nvidia 7600gt.
What are you trying to say? That if you take parts of two sentences that I typed, it shows opposition to what the whole purpose of the paragraph? Congratulations. Send your resume to the NSA, they are looking for code crackers like you.
So, is your proposition to halt scientific study as we know it? So we don't enable this racism that's gene-based?
Last time I checked, most liberal secularists openly accept differences. This is where racism ceased to exist in their minds. Let's say we find out that africans, asians, and europeans have differences in genes that we didn't notice before. The only people who will take advantage of those differences are people who are closed-minded, unhappy, are scared of people who look different, and still believe that correct morals were written 2 thousand years ago. I happen to know a few on my father's side of the family. Ignorant little boogers. They can be annoying.
But anyway, the only way people would use genetics as a reason for some genocide are people who simply didn't have a mom when they grew up, or they have ridiculous fears towards people who look different or follow different philosophies in life. Do you have that problem? I assume you do. You directly linked the science of genetics to nazi-thinking. One book that everyone seems to love in the united states is the bible. now that's a book that can teach nazi-thoughts. Like enslaving people from other countries.
Oh well. enough ranting. If you want me to give you a suggestion, I'll say go find your mommy and hug her. You need something decent to replace your hate-logic, maybe that'll do.
Well, it was only 2, I apologize if the strange reference to "third time is a charm" was a little confusing.
The first time was when I was 11, and the surgeon ended up not removing enough (this was at Children's Hospital of Detroit), because I started having seizures 5 years later. So at 17, I went to the Cleveland Clinic and I had the rest of the area taken out, along with a miniscule amount of the right frontal lobe taken out. The only permanent effect I still have is that I have no "right" peripheral vision in both of my eyes. Which isn't really that severe. Any other problems I had, like fear recognition (linked to the amygdala, which was partially removed), hunger, and such were short term, and were
expected.
The second surgery was also a reason why I decided to give up on religion, but that is a whole other story by itself. Let's just say that as an 11 year old child, I put my faith in a God to stop fear and pain. As a 17 year old teenager, I gave up on that God, and put the faith in myself, and it worked. Yeah, it might sound a little simplistic, and maybe surgeons knew more than before, but that kind of logic is the same kind that religions use to function, and that exact logic was what showed me that gods don't exist.
Being a patient of corrective surgery for epilepsy twice, I decided to actually RTFA.
The article is about Japan placing electrodes directly onto the brain to pick up more accurate signals. This actually has no direct link to having computer controlled body parts; as the FTA says they have been using electrodes placed directly on the brain to pick up activity when one moves his or her arm.
Why is this old news? during my last round of epilepsy correction surgery, (in 2001) I went through surgery so they could place an electrode plate inside my skull in order to pick up right temporal and frontal lobe activity with the greatest accuracy. I can tell you it gave me the worst headache ever for the week or so they monitored me for seizure activity, but they immediately removed it once they decided the correct tissue to remove. Thankfully since then, it showed that the second time, not third, was the charm, for i'm off of seizure drugs without having seizure activity. And intelligence-wise, well, I still can write in assembly, and I read slashdot 3times a day. (that doesn't exactly show i'm intelligent though, not all slashdotters use their brains:-P)
As you can see, this article is BS. Wake me up when they are using electrodes to directly interface with and manage brain activity, none of this activity reading bullshit. Yes, i was in a bad mood previous to reading TFA. heh.
I'd have to agree with you. If being able to install a beta video driver on windows makes one an advanced pc user, well, you are wrong. you are just so-so experienced windows user. If you can debug source code and tweak makefiles (something i had to do a lot with before nvidia caught up with building 2.6 modules) then you can question whether "advanced pc user" is an appropriate title. the most problems that seem to be more popular these days, especially with nvidia, is setting up xorg.conf for compositing support, or if you are using one of the newbie friendly distributions, fixing up what the autoconfig program fucked up.

I think you are supposed to look at Windows as the Robin Hood of operating systems. Doing a bad thing, but for the good.. ermm.... well. Supposedly for the good of the people.
All in perspective. Think communism, I guess. Okay, so maybe this should be the other way around, with Windows "destroying the desktop". Helps the plot make more sense.
Though we already know about the true outcome of that.
