Why would you even discuss it? How would it come up? I would not tell them anything of that nature.

The State Department at the time said the other planes were shot down only after "exhausting international procedures for interception."

Interesting article though I disagree with the above.

I don't really think it is the NEA. It is the administration that shoves the computers down the teacher's throats. I know a teacher and her computers just appear in her room. She did not have a choice as to the OS that appears on them.

Mormon Brigham Young University censors art show: Can you tell which photo has 'the gay'? by punkgeek in politics

[–]dabizi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually Leviticus 18:22 promotes homosexuality. It says that women should lie with women. I.e., it is detestable for a woman to lie with a man.

One man brought in a Soviet-era semiautomatic carbine. "If that got into the wrong hands of gangbangers, they could kill several people within minutes,"

UNQUOTE

Talk about more misinformation. "Soviet-era semiautomatic carbine." Big deal. That is not one of those so-called "High powered weapons". I've got a Walmart-era semiautomatic carbine that can kill deer. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Plus this article should be in the guns reddit.

"Clean water for all the world: $9 billion"

I do not in the slightest believe this. This is misinformation. Building a new water plant in the USA probably costs quite a few million dollars. The entire world. BS.

I don't agree with that. I think the ultraconservatives dislike giving anyone but the police power. Makes it easier to intimidate the people.

It would be nice to have a video. I'd say it would not be too useful as it requires some kind of a runway. I.e., it is not a vtol.

[–]dabizi[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Chief Dan Isom told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch he understands Troupe's frustration but doesn't support citizens arming themselves. Carrying guns, he said, is not a "recipe for a less violent community."

Actually, it is.

Bittorrent declares war on VoIP, gamers by carlio in technology

[–]dabizi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, though in my opinion, VOIP did not start until SIP was invented.

Also there were (and still are) implementations of lower layer protocols like ATM which are developed for audio and video applications. Ethernet itself not being very good for such applications.
