Cake?

"but to our ears the winning one sounds just a cacophony of noise at best, and an irritating screech at worst."

Its the Cake revolution, as predicted by Brass Eye!

"Apple-labeled computers"

True, the OS X EULA does say this. But happily they would give you a couple of shiny stickers with your retail OS X, so you could label your own.

the benefit is,,,

it is a step towards the obsolescence of cash.

No cash = no cash-in-hand = more tax for the greedy bastard government.

Great opening line...

"New UK defence minister Liam Fox has fallen into the clutches of fearmongering armsbiz lobbyists, according to reports."

Double standards

"We have taken the unusual step of sharing information about these attacks with a broad audience not just because of the security and human rights implications of what we have unearthed"

Yeah right, not just because its China then.

Wouldn't hear a peep if they thought the US was spying on human rights activists.

The United States of America is a corporation; not a country, or a landmass.

Hang on a minute...

"Someone being beaten up should be a crime," commented Szrodecki.

Their behaviour is inexplicable.

What if politicians all over the world are so keen because they've all been told that this level of control WILL happen; and that they'd better get the public used to the idea, whether the technology is there or not??

Would that explain it?

Science Vs Religion

Scientific academics don't believe in God because they are much more likely (due to years of training) to be strictly 'seeing is believing' - thats how science works.

Anthropological academics have a broad knowledge of many cultures whose definitions of 'God' greatly vary, making the academic less likely to believe any one God story.

Anyone with an understanding of both disciplines knows that what religious types call 'God' and what boffins call 'Energy' have more or less the same desription, and therefore believe the God story was born of misunderstanding.

As was once said to describe organised religion:

"scary language designed to control primitive peoples"

nuff said.

Funny....

I though in-flight calls already worked. They apparently did on United Airlines flights over Pennsylvania in 2001....the Commission told me so.

Maybe if they stopped mandating that countries to which they provide 'aid' have to spend it on grow-once Monsanto zombie seeds, food prices would drop somewhat...

Just a thought but what do I know, i haven't got a degree in <del>population control</del> economics.

That's nothing...

I had a WD Caviar that actually set fire to its protective foam. Didn't help that WD put all their chips on the underside of the pcb for maximum heat!
