    About 22 million of people voted for "stay". They can have all of them to sign the petition, they still remain the minority. This is supposed to be they way democracy works, or is internet changing the rules ?!?

    This is not internet changing rules, this is using internet as medium to lay their rules, this is not a random internet petition, it is part of the uk democratic system.

  6. My tv subscription do broadcast GoT, although a few hours later because of subtitles, since I don't have the need for those I still download them from those torrent sites, and HBO still gets the very same cut, and payed well in advance by my tv provider. So I am pretty much guilty free, and has a service that extends the usefulness of GoT without them having to pay one extra cent.

    You might have the time, but if you pay 300e for Indigo you'll have (for the moment at least) roughly 24x the horsepower you would get for the same 3 nodes, and 95e for each one you add thereafter. If you trade it for actual hardware you'll see that it is actually less expensive to buy Indigo then using an open source Lux, with the present benefit of having a lifetime update (meaning you'll be granted access to all Indigo versions made).

  10. Safeguard?? on CNN Uses P2P Video & Adds Terrible EULA · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I usually pay for the bandwith I use on torrent both download and upload, if I don't want to use it I'll shut it down, it's that strange that cnn wants to play on the safe side so that no wacko try to bill them for the upload they make? As for the rest I see it as 'you cannot use any of this information for selling or using against us'...

    you can check buddhism : since the world only exists as part of the mind of people, it is not possible for people to cause accidents due to "not knowing" something, since they know about the entire world. So dig a hold in the sidewalk, camouflage it, and if someone falls into it you're sure buddhism is wrong.

    Hardly it would be the case, it's not because you fall that you prove weather people know or not the entire world

    The line "God created man in his image". See, if god created man as a tiny thing that took eons to grow into what we know today, then god would have started as a small thing that grew, but, but, but god is absolute! Infinate! Bigger than big! Unchanging and perfect! So that can't work.
    a) the line is exactly that, a line... God haven't wrote that, at most it was Godly inspired... b) we're made on his image... we'll that says a lot, but exactly what does it say? Does it says that god is physical? If we're not talking of something we can actually measure, how does one define the intangible? c) you said god was absolute, infinite, unchanging and perfect, but then again we aren't any of it, yet we are made on his image... what does it say? That we are him? else look (b) d) trough evolution there's a moment where homo sapiens isn't homo sapiens but another specimem, so saying that "God created man in his image" doesn't exactly defines in which conditions he was brought just an happening, and the condition is still met trough evolution since there's a moment where homo sapiens is defined So the question remains: what prevent God from creating life trough evolution? which can also translate into; what are you(creationists) so afraid of?

    I still say that this is the true test for whether a creationist can actually be open-minded or not. Ask them this one question: What piece or pieces of evidence will it take to convince you that the Theory of Evolution is, in fact, true and that creationism is not? If the answer is "None," as it is with almost every creationist I've ever met, then don't bother wasting your time arguing with them. Nothing you say will ever convince them, as they have deliberately closed themselves off to any kind of rational conclusion based on reality instead of blind faith.
    I'm a creationist and I belive in evolution... or was it the other way around? I believe in creation trough evolution as it's method... simple ain't it... Most like to put words in God's mouth, I rather prefer to see Him working
