Reply to Latest in ClimateGate: Yes, they’re messing with the temp readings too in Politics Stardock Forums

Unfortunately, the majority of people naively believe that scientists are purely objective, and that they can't draw their own conclusions because they're "not scientists[and they] wouldn't know." The ability to think for yourself is being lost, leaving people willing to believe anything someone says just because they went to school longer.

Final Fantasy VII, with its lovely 24-poly game characters. I was so pissed off when Aeris died. And, of course, the final boss battle with Sephiroth was epic. Although I personally had more trouble with Hojo than him (beat him first try). Then there are the various music themes, such as Cosmo Canyon. Not to mention the storyline, which was amazing even though it only made sense up to the end of disk 1, since for whatever reason it was possible to miss key plo

Science discovers a new element! in Humor JoeUser Forums

Breakthrough research has led to the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element, Governmentium (Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like part

I recently found out I could get Windows 7 for $30 with a student discount through my university, but sadly it would be a bit of a waste to put it on my piece of crap computer. Now I'm torn between waiting to get Windows 7 with a new computer, or just upgrading this one, silly as it would be.

I appreciate your explanation of the Douay-Rhiems translation. I just wonder now if it is the same Douay-Rhiems today as it was

[quote]As far as the word "Church", the Douay Rheims Bible is the best, most accurate word-for-word translation from the original languages.[/quote] While I would agree that some translations are better than others, I have to wonder why you assume the Douay-Rhiems is the best one. Certainly not because it is the oldest (I hope)? I would say that the Geneva Bible is at least on par with the Douay-Rhiems, perhaps better as it does not include the Apocrypha. (

Reply to Vista is driving me round the bend... in Personal Computing JoeUser Forums

The strangest error I've had in Vista was that one day, out of the blue, a bunch of my shortcuts re-linked to themselves. So, one day I tried to open up MS Word, only to find that it wouldn't open. Why? The shortcut had somehow changed to open, not MS Word, but the shortcut itself. All of my Office programs had this happen. Also, because the shortcuts weren't technically "broken," Vista didn't open the "searching for missing program" box to fix it for me.

Reply to Aero vs. WindowBlinds 7 in Blogging Stardock Forums

So, I guess if you want your desktop to be black, WB7 is the way to go? I was kind of hoping for a benchmark test or something. Is WB7 faster than Aero when using a full skin (and not just textures on Aero itself)?

And actually, it's not terribly fair for anyone to blame Bush for much of anything, because he was cleaning up the mess left from Clinton's presidency. According to my economics textbook it takes roughly 8 years for the full effect of a policy change to be seen. So, some poor sucker, most likely a Republican, will be in office when Obama's proverbial crapshoot hits the fan.

Hahaha... wow. You know, you sound like Ron Paul. Of course, everyone in the US (besides me) hated him, so unfortunately he wasn't elected as President. He is probably the only US politican in office who had the foresight to see this coming - his proposed policies sound exactly like yours, particularly the first one. As for the topic itself, I have to say I honestly find our government's spending practices disgusting. Yes, most likely this change will hit us in

Hmm... well. In Vista: - I hate the start menu. The flyout menus of pre-Vista worked just fine, but now rearranging my start menu and finding programs is 3x harder. - Its a resource hog. This is obvious. Just about everything OS related is stupid-slow. Of course, it doesn't help that my computer only has 1 GB of RAM either. - Occasional compatibility issues with hardware/software.

[quote who="lulapilgrim" comment="806"] As early as the second century we find the Chruch Fathers, Syrian Hegisippus and Irenaeus, Bishop of Lyons, maintaining that the source and standard of the one Christian Faith, is the Apostolic Sacred Tradition handed down in an unbroken succession of Bishops. "But it would be too long to enumerate here the series of all the Churches; it suffices to point out the Apostolic Tradition, the teaching that has come down to us by episcopal suc

My point was that Jesus obviously considered the Old Testament to be authoritative, since He quoted it rather than corrected it - which flies in the face of your "only Jesus's words" theology.

Reply to Games with Style in PC Gaming JoeUser Forums

I think the most stylish game I have played (because I haven't played any Legend of Zelda games) was Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii. The graphics and music were all just fantastic and original. Most of the level design was very clever, and some of it was insanely creative. So yeah, it definitely is a game with true style.
