>a web browser should never, and I mean NEVER, need half a gig of memory to view my open tabs

Hmm. 512MB of ram should be enough for any web browser?

If it bothers you that much though, just go to your about:config page and edit the

browser.cache.memory.capacity

key to however much ram you think your browser should use.

>Not if Amazon remotely turns off non-drm files reading. Man, they can actually erase books remotely, they can't turn off a feature?

They have. Read up on when they deactivated the text to speech feature.

Well, how about ATMs? They count!

I can understand your concern about the automatic teller machine machines though.

Another point worth noting is that even the APA doesn't condone the use of 'outdated' tests, which the Rorschach would certainly qualify under:

APA ETHICAL PRINCIPLES OF PSYCHOLOGISTS AND CODE OF CONDUCT http://www.apa.org/ethics/code.html

http://www.apa.org/ethics/code.html#2.07

2.07 Obsolete Tests and Outdated Test Results.
(a) Psychologists do not base their assessment or intervention decisions or recommendations on data or test results that are outdated for the current purpose.

(b) Similarly, psychologists do not base such decisions or recommendations on tests and measures that are obsolete and not useful for the current purpose.

Would you like to know more?

Well a double-dumbass on you, sir!

6 men chucking rocks plus a van is a clear disparity of force scenario. A rock being thrown has been treated as "assault with a deadly weapon" in the past. So no, I'm not out of my mind. Just consider what could have happened if those rock chuckers decided to be more aggressive.

>Never owned a gun or shot a gun I take it?

Maybe I'm a CCW permit holder, reserve deputy, and graduate of 3 handgun shooting schools.

Or maybe I'm just an internet tough guy.

But 6 guys in a van vs 18 rounds of .40 and 13 rounds of 357SIG before reloading both guns means that van and occupants would have a very bad day if they decided to assault me.

Also, if your aim sucks with iron sights that bad where you couldn't hit moving targets, try using lasers. Sharks are optional.

Time for this guy to get a conceal carry permit, a handgun, and most importantly, the training to know when to use the above. Online we defend ourselves with munitions known as anonymity and encryption. In real life we use body armor and small arms.

Yes, Obama accidentally the document.

Here is the document blurb:

To the Congress of the United States:
I transmit herewith a list of the sites, locations, facilities, and activities
in the United States that I intend to declare to the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), under the Protocol Additional
to the Agreement between the United States of America and
the International Atomic Energy Agency for the Application of
Safeguards in the United States of America, with Annexes, signed
at Vienna on June 12, 1998 (the ''U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol''),
and constitutes a report thereon, as required by section 271 of Public
Law 109-401. In accordance with section 273 of Public Law
109-401, I hereby certify that:
(1) each site, location, facility, and activity included in the
list has been examined by each department and agency with
national security equities with respect to such site, location, facility,
or activity; and
(2) appropriate measures have been taken to ensure that information
of direct national security significance will not be
compromised at any such site, location, facility, or activity in
connection with an IAEA inspection.
The enclosed draft declaration lists each site, location, facility,
and activity I intend to declare to the IAEA, and provides a detailed
description of such sites, locations, facilities, and activities,
and the provisions of the U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol under
which they would be declared. Each site, location, facility, and activity
would be declared in order to meet the obligations of the
United States of America with respect to these provisions.
The IAEA classification of the enclosed declaration is ''Highly
Confidential Safeguards Sensitive''; however, the United States regards
this information as ''Sensitive but Unclassified.''
Nonetheless, under Public Law 109-401, information reported to,
or otherwise acquired by, the United States Government under this
title or under the U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol shall be exempt
from disclosure under section 552 of title 5, United States Code.
BARACK OBAMA.

Amusingly, it is addressed to Congress. Which means it would have been leaked PDQ regardless.

>How many Atheist kill for there lack of belief?

>And in the USSR there where many well known underground places of worship that were mostly ignored.

You can ignore history if you wish. Look at the actions of those militant athiests and listen to the stories of the refugees of those places rather than the publications of those places.

Who knows, you just might learn something.

>Too many have died at the hands of men supposedly doing God's bidding following His word. You can't just dismiss thousands of years of massacres: because it's still going on today.

The Athiests don't have a record any better than the Theists on that front. Unless you want to ignore how much fun it was to be religious in Russia during their crazy years. Plenty other examples, that is just the first that comes to mind.

This is why you use a NUKE. Oh darn, I didn't hit the target exactly dead on. I was a quarter mile off. Wait, a 2 megaton warhead just went off. Target destroyed.

There is a reason why nuking from orbit really is the only way to be sure...

>Why? The chances of missing from orbit are much greater than anything else.

Uh, it's kinda hard to miss with a NUKE. When dealing with weapons fired from orbit, a nuke really is the only way to be sure.

The newspapers are doing it wrong. I pay an absurd amount of money for news services that actually report news.

Stratfor is the cheapest one that I use, and I appreciate it for its global reporting and analysis of situations that happens to be (gasp!) unbiased! They literally just provide the facts and logical analysis. If they did local news I'd pay them more.
