Or, maybe if a couple wants to have kids who are actually biologically their own children, they should be allowed to, regardless of which of *your morals and beliefs* you'd like to try to impress upon them?
The sad part is, if you had said Microsoft instead of M$ and not thrown in the irrelevant-to-this-article Apple & OS/2 bits, you probably would have been flamed for being a MS fanboy.
Online gambling is not desired because it makes it way to easy for people who are gambaholics (or to become such). Travelling to a casino is at least a chore (unless you live close to one).
SRB's separate at ~150,000 feet, so the sky should be pretty black at that height. Also, they probably have a fair amount of vertical velocity at the separation point so should take a while even before they begin to descend. Without doing any back-of-the-envelope arithmetic, it seems plausable that they could take a few minutes to land. Unless you know better than I do what the view is like from 150,000 feet, and that's why you're disputing it.
Now, why would you go and write a intelligent, well reasoned paragraph and then throw in
Racism is far from over, that's very true: it's spread to every society that wants to emulate American ways and the culture of the West.
What the hell does that even mean? Racism started in American and spread from there? People want to emulate American racial tensions? The first of those is provably false, the second is probably just asanine.
In the U.S. the average couple has only 1.4 children. It's actually 2.05 (very barely below replacement). It's down towards that 1.4 range and below in parts of Europe (especially Russia) and Japan though.

I have no idea what that math is getting at. If your $10/hr is the opportunity cost of me watching TV commercials instead of being at work... sure, video games cost me a few hundred bucks a week too. Of course, like most people, I use commercials as a chance to go to wash up, grab a beer, get some chips, work on a sudoku, or whatever.
Of course, any time anyone says anything is "Without a doubt the best [anything] in the world" I'm inclined to doubt it, though I haven't watched enough BBC to compare it to American TV.
IANAL, but reading the article and the decision, it seems that what the guys were doing wasn't legitimate at all.
Here's the description of the justification from the judge's decision:
Mr. Lambert explained that the COAs obtained from the bank or its employees in the example could be purchased by Digital or other traders on the market for loose COAs and then sold with the relevant Microsoft media to a dealer in refurbished computers. If that were not permitted, the relevant software could not be used without the payment of a further royalty to Microsoft, in addition to the royalty paid in connection with the COA on the first use of the COA. In my judgment, there is no reason why Microsoft should not be paid a royalty for the use of its software in a refurbished computer. If that software were already licensed, there should already be a COA sticker on the computer. The objection was, I think, really to the payment by the bank of a price reflecting the royalty for software that it chose not to use. The question arose why the hypothetical bank should enter into such a transaction. Mr. Lambert submitted initially that computers without software were unobtainable. And the bank could not simply return the software since it would have to return the whole package, including the computer, to the OEM. He showed me by way of example condition 12 of the conditions imposed by Dell, a royalty OEM, which does indeed contain such a requirement. He later corrected his submission that computers without software were unobtainable. He adduced evidence, obtained by Edward Hill in part during the course of the hearing, that one particular supplier offered a range of laptops of which over 560 models had a Microsoft operating system and only two had no pre-installed operating system. The same piece of evidence also showed that owing to economies of scale computers with software installed were cheaper than those without. In my judgment, there is no real prospect that at trial the defendants would be able to establish that Microsoft's licensing system operates unreasonably in restraint of trade by reason of matters of the kind he exemplified, even if the example is realistic.
Granted, it's a bit harder to get laptops without an OS than desktops, but it still certainly can be done, and I don't see any indication (though they don't really go into it) that they're not trying to get a bulk-liscence discount to sell to individuals under the table, which would be like me like college students selling off their personal OS liscence they got from paying their shcool tech fee.
That answer is interesting - how does it relate to the fact that, in Pennsylvania, anyway, the DMV won't accept cash? I would assume that the DMV is not a private business.
The chinese government got together a tall woman basketball player and a tall man basketball player, and 'encouraged' them to get married and have a huge baby?
Except the average time to get one of those 60's is what, 250-300 hours of gameplay? That might be 'casual' compared to other MMORPGS, but it's one hell of a time sink compared to Tetris, which is what I think of as casual gaming.

That link was nice, just because it let me know there's a distribution out there called "Red Flag Linux", being used in China.

You mean it'll help prevent cases like This Guy?
It also seems like it would make it a lot easier to keep gambling out of states where it is illegal.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he was making a joke about it being a free product.
So 2+2=5 is 125% correct? I wish I had teachers like you.

Would annoy the hell out of schmucks like me who still watch regular TV realtime, though. Maybe they can put it to music.
