I forgot about that lol. I guess this means that even WM 6.5 is better than Windows Phone 7.

In all fairness to Microsoft, they have to compete not only with the iPhone's hardware and iOS, but also Apple's marketing department and Jobs' Reality Distortion Field. However, in my opinion, Windows Phone 7 will not be able to kill off the iPhone because it's missing too much core functionality (copy/paste and I believe secure Exchange support) but it is still a step up from WM 6.5.

Even though the headline confused some people, the capital 'C' in college in aforementioned headline is grammatically correct. This is due to the word 'college' being in the title of an article, where it is appropriate to capitalize all words (with a few exceptions such as 'the', 'of', and 'a' when those words are not the first word in the title).

To be honest, I don't think it matters what kind of software people use in day-to-day computing operations. It seems to me that the Stallman followers argue for freedom to do what one wishes with one's computer and software; however if that choice includes 'non-free' or proprietary software it's wrong for one to use it. I wish Stallman and his followers would just stop being so hypocritical.

Well if Wikileaks is leaking troop movements, battle plans, etc. they would be putting troops in danger of being ambushed, etc. which will certainly put our various countries' armed forces in unnecessary danger. (hypothetically speaking of course, i know of no incident of this occuring)

The Bible in various places describes the world as round as well.

Isaiah 40:22 and parts of Job are some examples.

The problem with athiests these days is that they personally attack people that have a religion. Most people that believe in God don't go trying to convert everyone they see, yet are personally attacked daily for their 'stupidity in believing theres a god LOLOLOL'.

TL;DR personal attacks make you look like an ass.

Every time something like this is posted on /. everyone get in a huge flame war debating the virtues and consistencies of Evolution vs. Creationism/Intelligent Design. Anyone promoting evolution or debunking creationism often gets modded up, however anyone arguing for creationism often gets modded down. I'm a creationist, a Christian, and I just ask that we teach both in schools since it is an ongoing scientific debate. Let the children decide for themselves through providing pro's/con's of both sides.

Block porn. Most parents won't like the idea of a government-issued laptop giving their testosterone-filled teenaged boys access to Internet porn. Games won't be as big of an issue (except for emulators), especially if you include some games with the laptop.

Talk to school board officials in Henrico County, VA if you haven't already. We were one of the first to start issuing laptops to students. Whatever you do, don't ever switch over to Windows if you value being able to teach the kids. No matter what kind of restrictions or security was in place, within 20 minutes we were able to get around it.

Conservatives have no problem with stem-cell research. The problem is when the stem cells are harvested from a human embryo - during the process we end a human life. The main question about embryonic stem-cells was 'Is it right to kill a human being to potentially save other lives?' With this new breakthrough, it could be possible to save many lives without killing a potential human life.
