  2. Re:Dawkins and Bad Philosophy on Richard Dawkins to Appear on Doctor Who · · Score: 1

    Dawkins reasons that religion is a Bad Thing - for it to be a Bad Thing, morality must exist. Which (Quinn says) can't exist without freewill. I wouldn't call it out of context, even if Dawkins doesn't care about it. I get the impression that he cares about morality...

  3. Re:acid 2? on Firefox 3 Beta 3 Officially Released · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well, it mostly does - try dragging the eyes while playing a youtube video. The video stops.

    Isaiah 40:22

    He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth,
    and its people are like grasshoppers.
    He stretches out the heavens like a canopy,
    and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

    This is well before Jesus' time.

    And you're right about the four corners of the earth thing - it appears twice in revelation.

    There is? Where? Alaska?

  8. Re:Why is this needed at all? on Top 15 Free SQL Injection Scanners · · Score: 1

    I use prepared statements most of the time... however it's a pain in the butt when using the IN clause - there's no real way to do that, and I end up just concatenating SQL for those anyway

  9. One Company... on Outcry Over Google's Purchase of Doubleclick · · Score: 1

    will give one company access to more information about the Internet activities of consumers than any other company in the world
    Won't there always be one company with access to more information about the internet activities of consumers than any other company in the world?

    Wonder how subtle that was...(there was a penis joke earlier)

  12. Re:Grinding your eyeball? on The U.S. Navy's Doctrine of Laser Eye Surgery · · Score: 1

    Contrare to the previous guy, I'd like to thank you for posting as you did, without spell check.

    I didn't realise that dyslexia had such a huge impact on it - my girlfriend has dyslexia, but hers isn't as bad, her spelling's improving somewhat just by being aware of how words are spelt. Indeed, I didn't relate it to the dyslexia - I thumbed it down to just bad spelling, but now I know it's not.

    DEFINATELY
    I always read that spelling as defiantly...
  14. Re:probably as fair than most legal proceedings on Lawyers Ordered to Play RPS to Settle Dispute · · Score: 2, Interesting
    The game is to settle a dispute between the location to hold a deposition.

    Then again, I'm in Australia, we're quite a few years behind here :)

  21. Re:hmmn on New 25x Data Compression? · · Score: 1

    I came across this one day, which is a highly compressed 'demo' - music & 3d rendered video sort of thing. I was impressed.

    Found it here. There's another cool one from that site.

    Note: There's no virii here, but scan it if you don't believe me

    I'd probably flip ya the bird if your battery died too. Not so much if it was your hard drive, or mobo or something... But a battery really isn't expected to last much longer than a year in my experience.
