Well if God is everywhere and nowhere, then he'd be both internal and external. (which I don't believe, btw, 'cuz the Nicean creed is a load of medieval bullshit)
More specifically he made no point at all. He essentially said that:
if there are no external forces then
internal forces are the only forces at play
endif
Since nobody on
The only threat to a tyrant is free press. If indeed Achmedinijad is a tyrant, then by limiting free speech he will prove himself therewith.
This applies to many languages - many languages are popular precisely because they are popular, not because of inherent elegance or suitability.
So that's why we still have Java, C++, and BASIC! Gee I never really thought it out...
How could a 7 foot Wookie live on Endor?
Wookies are from Kashyykk. Duh!
You sir need to do more research. There are numerous standards in Linux/GNU software.
Think about it: if Apple ported OS X to run on the NT Kernel, would it still be OS X or would it magically turn into Windows?
No, I'm pretty sure the universe would spontaneously combust destroying all life as we know it. Either that or it would be treated by the compiler as one great big syntax error.
Dragging the fiber can't be that expensive
Yes, it can be that expensive. This is why we need a strong WISP (wireless ISP) industry to fight back against the Qwests, Comcasts, Verizons, and AT&Ts of this country - to use a medium that is mile for mile cheaper and overall speedy enough for 97% or more of Internet users to start shaking the boat, to start getting the monopolies in the ivory oligopolis to take notice and to stop fucking us over every step of the way.
What's wrong here in the US is a strong public distrust of having the government do anything, because the government may screw you over. So instead people prefer to give important tasks to businesses, who will screw you over.
There's a distinction. The FEDERAL government in the US can be depended on to do the absolute WORST thing possible. Local governments (cities and counties) can be generally depended upon to do things that are sane. STATE governments are like the Feds - they just think "oh I'm just one level below the feds, I can fuck up all I want too!"
Just think - on the whole, who are YOU more happy with? Your City, State, or your Country?
Al Gore invented the Internet!
No, I was thinking of the time when a crazy person shot four police officers. That got a lot of media attention in comparison to the BART Police murder.
Why don't we also sell their family into slavery? That'd be a good incentive to not fuck around as well.
Yes I am being sarcastic... or am I?
The media is on a pro-Police state trend after their Oakland PD story. It's too soon to start showing Police being bad if just two weeks ago they got turned into swiss-cheese by some crazed rapist with an assault rifle.
Oh, I thought Linux and GNU was just a bunch of really pissed off programmers who got mad at <OS goes here> and wanted to try and do it better. As a result the product is esoteric and only really usable by other programmers and half-programmers known as IT specialists.
The Linux desktop phenomenon was just a bunch of half-IT specialists (call them "power users") egging the programmers into writing stuff that they (the programmers) think is better than <OS goes here>, repeat ad nauseam.
That's what I think Linux is. And for all the instability and potential collapse that could happen with Linux, it runs my website.
Crazy...
It would be a huge and very messy change to implement.
Isn't writing law what we pay these damn legislators to do? "Awe, it's so much work!" well they're on government payroll, so they don't exactly have to worry - so long as they look busy they'll get re-elected anyways!
Any circuit design must contain at least one part which is obsolete, two parts which are unobtainable, and three parts which are still under development.
