Would someone please explain this to me? I continually run into people (mostly on the left) on the internet who are both AGAINST capital punishment and IN FAVOR OF allowing partial-birth abortions (I am speaking specifically about PARTIAL BIRTH abortions and not abortions in general, if you can't comprehend the difference, don't bother responding).

This makes no sence at all.

If an execution is an unacceptable and the right to life is absoloute, then how can one possibly condone a partial birth abortion? At least the executed criminals did something to deserve it.

Someone please explain this apperant contradiction in leftist attitudes.

Perfectly hypocritically liberal. Close what you don't agree with and then SCREAM freedom of discussion when it comes to long-winded Bush-bashing. All you screaming leftys make me want to vomit.

Posted on 01-13-06 03:44 AM, in Spanking bad children: abuse or not? Link
It's this whole "lets never discipline anyone for anything" attitude that creates bratty monsterous children who grow up to be selfish immature adults. If you don't teach kids that there are limits on behavior then they will grow up thinking that there will never be any consequences for their actions. Sometimes a child will get bratty and simply refuse to listen and refuse to accept that bad actions have reprocussions. Times like these are when negative reinforcements such as spanking are necissary to the proper discipline of a child.

Lack of discipline is the root cause of people like Ninja AE. Someone who was properly disciplined as a child understand that there are consequences to actions and that there are limits to behavior in a civilized society.

Proverbs 13:24 - "He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him."

Is it possible to use schemes for the site too? Maybe you could modify them a little bit to make them fit the site.
We had actually discussed that before. It is something that will eventually get implemented. It's not very high on the priority list though, as we've agreed that functional aspects will ALWAYS have priority over asthetic ones. It IS on the agenda though and it is definately something we want to do with the site. It's just a little more down the road then some of the other things.

Posted on 01-13-06 06:12 PM, in Man files lawsuit against Jesus' existance Link
What gets me about this is that people just kind of brush this off as some silly crackpot who is basically harmless. Yet if the tables were turned and some religious person was suing an atheist because he didn't believe, you know that everyone would be up in arms and ready to riot. It's a really nasty double standard.

There are nutty left-wingers all the time who are on this crusade against religion and they are seen as harmless or even beneficial! Yet if a religious authority ever tried to fight FOR religion in a court, they would be demonized by the media as trying to crush religious freedom.

Remember, it's freedom OF religion, not freedom FROM religion. Just because you don't belive in something, doesn't mean you don't have to deal with people who do. The world is full of people who disagree with you. That's life.

Guys like this are no better then radical fundamentalist zelots like the Taliban who try to impose their beliefs on others.

I still don't know if this is going to ultimately help or hurt Apple.

On the plus side, the mac will finally be using x86 PC hardware which has long been proven superior to mac hardware.

On the minus side, putting their OS onto standard PC hardware is now EASY. Macs as a full computer system may be going the way of the dino. MacOS MIGHT end up being a PC competition OS to Windows.

Disable "Automatic Restart on Error" to read the BSOD. To do that, go to Control Panel->System. Click Advanced Tab. Under "Startup and Recovery," click "Settings". Under "System failure", uncheck "Automatically restart"

Because the fact the computer DOESN'T BOOT shouldn't present a problem with opening the control panel.

You should get a bootdisk-based ram tester.

Supposedly XP won't install/run properly on the Apple Intel machines because of bios issues. Though according to MS, Vista should run fine on them once it comes out.

Indeed. The issue is that there is no BIOS.

The only current version of Windows that supports EFI is the 64 bit one. Which isn't compatible with the Intel Core Duo in the Mac.

So yes, at the moment you can't natively dual boot. Vista will support EFI.
I wonder if you could dual boot the system with normal XP if you installed GRUB into the MBR.

I selected 250 even though I only have 240. I didn't know if you wanted us to round up or down so I just picked the closest.

Oh crap, we're allowed to count all the computers and combine them and not just our "main" machine?

Crap, now I have to change mine from 240 to to 620.

-R and +R are just two ways to burn (i.e. put data onto a DVD disc). In the end, the produce the same type of disc -- DVD-ROM. Thus, yeah things will be okay--+R and -R should both be able to be read

No they dont produce the "same type of disc". The answer to interdpth's answer is a resounding "NO". +R discs are well known for having lower compatibility with various players then -R ones. In fact, +R is incompatible with about 10% of drives. The way -R and +R discs write and play in a drive are totally different.

-R discs are written at constant linear velocity, meaning the disc rotates at different speeds depending on the track, fastest on tracks on the outer part of the disc. This is the prefered format for DVD video.

+R discs are written at constant angular velocity (though some drive/software combos let you do it at CLV, you aren't supposed to), anyway, with constant angular velocity, the disc spins at a constant angular rate regardless of position. This format is technically superior to -R but far fewer players support it.
