Your two sentences are inconsistent. The assertion was that life or existence itself is pointless, nothing to do with the esteem of individuals. You say "people like Martin Luther King Jr" would beg to differ about gtt's assertion, but

No, not intelligent, or snobby. Big-souled. Like Douglas Hofstadter said: "Small-souled men, beware!" I (and a lot of us here) have no patience with constrictive thinking. In this case, why was sex brought in? Trying to artificially decreas

It's fine. I also remembered that I hate touching my mouse, and I prefer to keep my ring finger on "page down" when reading on a computer. Having to physically lift my hand, move it to the mouse, find the cursor on the screen, aim it at "ne

I mean McAfee in lieu of a less expensive perfume, like Avast. I'm assuming Avast is less expensive.... Avast is better, though. (And is it just me or is HN freaking out right now?)

> Why do IT depts recommend installing this program? My suspicion is that they need something to spend a lot of money on. That old "more expensive perfume = better" thing, to appease the managers. I could be wrong.

As much as I love video games, I agree with him. I don't think games can technically be art. Though, they are meaningful. You have to draw the distinction somewhere. Art isn't a plastic definition, and it is at least generally understood to

Man, this whole tea-party thing was fairly inconsequential to the point I was trying to make. I brought it up as an example and because my parent brought it up. This was the supplement I was trying to tack onto my parent's comment: "Some

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Just to be clear I wasn't actually disagreeing with you. Just adding to what you said. So you don't like the phrase "tea-bagging" and you don't like someone seemingly decreasing a group of people's relative v

Some technical understanding of this issue is prerequisite to understanding how the negative consequences outweigh the positive. Most of the tea-bagging protesters are protesting stuff that is way over their head, but they don't need a go

I'm using it in Windows. I've searched for the folders "plugins" and "vimperatorrc." There is a "vimperator" folder in my documents, but with no "plugins" child folder. This vimperator folder looks like it just contains some history files..

Okay, I'm having a really hard time figuring out how to install my colemak.vimp plugin for vimperator. I hate asking, but where do I put vimperator plugin files?

Transcoding takes time and more space. I like my classical music, jazz, and noise music to be of the highest quality possible. The sound quality of most MP3s is distracting.

That's a little depressing. I'm visualizing most of these people keeping these "goals" at arms length, or further, until their deaths. Most of the crap on that list I wouldn't consider as "goals." Write a book? I've done that, twice, and am

I'd take issue using the term "real life" in this context. By extension you're saying that anything that happens in a computer is "not in real life," even though the things that happen in computers have consequences in reality just like any

That's unfortunate. I tested this in IE8 by zooming out. Didn't expect a problem since that worked.

Sup "my grandpa was an engineer/programmer for the blackbird" buddy :). Maybe they knew each other ! Did he like to hold cool confidential information over your head, too? Like how fast the blackbird could really go?

Umm, no hallucinogen should be taken lightly. They may work well in tribal settings, but the therapeutic uses aren't well understood, especially in modern settings. And in ye olde worldé, hallucinogen use was mainly to bond members of a gro
