Finally! An end to telemarketing!

If it looks like a duck... and quacks like a duck...

On the leeward side, it seems like it sometimes.

Well, if you are going to take the position that the military is inherently immoral, you've already excluded yourself from any rational discussion.

Yes, but everyone else read the article.

Well, first you have to survive whatever event renders the Earth uninhabitable without life-support systems. And you're not going to have them available to save you from catastrophe if you don't already need them for some other reason.

The dinosaurs are extinct simply because they didn't have a space program.

Not to mention, there's an awful lot more resources available in space than just vacuum and photons.

You seem to be confused if you think atheists are depriving people of their rights. Religious people are the ones that try to make everyone else give up rights to comply with their delusions.

It's naive people like you that are the real problem, because you're happy to have no rights.

.torrent files? How quaint.

Hmm... that's disappointing. I was going to check out www.ighome.com as an alternative to the dying iGoogle, but it seems that nobody ever told the people who run ighome that periods in email address are valid. Firstname.lastname@domain.net is not a valid address as far as they are concerned. Oh, well. Their loss.

There still hasn't been a single AAA title developed with Unity 3D

The "stolen formula" was sold and resold among several companies. The end-product (the caps) weren't exactly fake, but the recipe the makers bought to manufacture them was fake. My theory is that the missing ingredients were deliberate... that it was a honeypot by a company that wanted to find out which of (or if) its employees was stealing secrets.

You must not have been around for the Great Motherboard Capacitor Rupturing of 1998, when just about every major motherboard manufacturing company fell victim to the hordes of fake caps being sold around Asia. Well, not fake exactly, but fake in that they were not as specified and only worked for a few months before bursting.
