Except that is 31% and 23% of the legislators who only voted once and the issue was over. That does not reflect the public sentiment at that time.

I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. I do remember being a member of a very small minority that voice their opposition publicly.

"Requirements" and "Features" are very different things.

I don't know if you really had a point to make with this sentence. As a customer he considered it a feature that all games were free-to-play. As a developer, if you wanted to make a game for Ouya you had a requirement to make it free-to-play.

Lumpy's point is that by removing that requirement from developers they are removing a feature that drew customers to the platform in the first place.

Whether that was an intelligent move is a different matter.

Dubya did not have the unswerving patriotic fervor of all Americans standing behind him ready to do his every bidding; instead he got a lot of flack for it and lots of protests.

The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 act passed the house with 69% approval (297 yes - 133 nay - 3 abstained) and the senate with 77% approval ( 77 yes - 23 nay ). The yes votes included 40% of the Democrats in the house and 58% of the Democrats in the Senate. A very small minority of constituents were against the war. It was only after the war that the majority of Americans considered the Iraq War a mistake (Gallop 2007).

The record doesn't show that "Dubya" acted alone or without support.

If your goal is to go out and eat, then go get the food and don't worry about what kind of chances the animal has.

If you can afford to use a drone to aid in hunting then you can probably go to Walmart and pick up some groceries.

Without being directly fired upon, if Ukrainina soldiers shoot at the Russians the Russians can rightfully claim Ukraine as the agressor and invade.

1) The Russians never let facts get in the way of propaganda.

2) Russians can not rightfully claim anything if they are already inside Ukraine, threatening a base, and being fired upon within Ukraine. That is utter bullshit.

This is just a situation of Ukraine not being in a position to defend their own sovereignty and the last thing they want is to make the crisis worse.

I may be misunderstanding sjbe (his first post seemed trollish) but I think his point was that people choose to hunt for food and that hunting is not the sole source of food for anyone within the US. He is correct that there is a huge market in recreational hunting and fishing. However having an industry made up of almost entirely of recreational hunters and fishermen doesn't mean that there aren't people who chose to subsist solely on meat that they hunted or fished. I also agree that people chose to survive on what they hunt or fish and there isn't any real requirement to do so to survive within the US.

So what?

There isn't anything wrong with choosing to gather, hunt and grow your own food. I think it actually helps the environment. If more people had to get their own food, they would be more vocal about industry dumping waste in their streams or land being overdeveloped and adversely affecting wildlife populations.

Also I do not know a single recreational hunter that do not eat what they kill. Some members of my family hunt every deer season and we all enjoy venison. As members of their hunting club they work hard keeping their hunting grounds maintained and make sure the deer population remains healthy. During the season the club enforces strict hunting limits because the last thing serious recreational hunters want is poor game populations. FYI most recreational hunters in my state use hunting clubs which are self regulated while the game warden concentrate their efforts on the public hunting grounds.

Back on the topic of drone-assisted hunting, my state already bans hunting using planes or even radios. Why when enforcing limits should be enough? Because hunters outnumber the wardens and the hunting grounds are massive. While game wardens do perform checks on hunting clubs and been known to walk up to you at the entrance of public hunting grounds and inspect your kill, there are still a huge potential for abuse. Everyone I know that hunt support the restrictions on plain/radio coordinated hunts because often they are used in poaching and they don't consider that part of the hunt anyway.

Personally I don't hunt but I do fish and yes I eat what I catch and release what I don't.

Dr Pielke (the author of the article) actually is a climate scientist, and a relatively respected one.

Dr. Pielke Jr. actually holds a PhD in Politcal Science as well as an MA in Public Policy. He is a political scientist within the field of climatlogy.

His father Dr. Pielke Sr. holds a PhD in meteorology and contends that CO2 plays little role in climate change.

Python is 4 years older than Java, PHP and Ruby.

Technically this is true. However the Python that you know and love is actually younger than the three languages you mentioned. Let me explain:

Python 2.0 was released on October 2000. This is where it gain features that actually made it useful outside of the Ameoba OS. Prior to this release, the other languages were already making themselves useful on more mainstream OS like:

Ruby 1.0 which was released on December 1996 (It implemented most of the features that weren't available until Python 2).

PHP already had three major releases by July 1998.

Java 1.0 was released in 1995.

Incidentally, Python and Perl was influenced by Perl which was released in 1987.

Perl clones the entire interpreter for every thread.

Which isn't a bad thing. Perl, Python, and Ruby do not run natively within a CPU. Both Python and Ruby settled on a GIL so that the interpreter could have multiple threads of execution. Perl decided that it would be faster to just give each thread its own interpreter and they were right. You can also do cool things like detach long lived threads and whatever.

You can still fork in Python, Perl, and Ruby and give each process its own independent address space and use IPC to share data. However with Perl threads you can share variable data (with caveats) with multiple threads with threads::shared.

I don't desire a rollback and I believe the OP is wanting Windows 7 support to be added to the current version of Bootcamp.

I continue to get new windows machines with Microsoft Windows 7 installed on them and pay for the privilege of the "downgrade".

You might notice that Linux kernel releases don't get much play in the mainstream media either.

Except unlike global geopolitics where a cold war could easily erupt, the Linux kernel isn't mainstream.

Sometimes called "analysis."

I've read some of the analysis on Fox News and MSNBC and they aren't known to be 100% accurate. Errors of omissions and over emphasis on smaller elements out of context rule the day there. The media and the internet is full of "pundits" pushing ideologues which is why people should consider the source. Frequently "analysis" is nothing more than over glorified opinion.

Minimalizing or ignoring Russia's actions got us to where we are now.

I don't think anyone is minimizing Russia's actions. I also think nothing good come from over sensationalization. The west is playing very conservatively and trying not to abandon a negotiated path to resolution. The more things are talked up in the west the more "face saving" tactics will be required of the east. I think the worst thing to do is to goad someone who is itching for a fight.

The right thing is being done. Currently the worst case for the west is that Russia takes over Crimea and makes overtures towards Ukraine, and the worst case for Russia is that they leave Crimea to Ukraine but can claim that because of their actions the Russian immigrants are better protected from Ukrainian nationalists due to negotiation for withdraw.
