    ...on China and India...

    Reply to Starseeker: Well, he reads a lot of stuff, and I'm guessing Chinese newspapers and magazines. He Mentioned that China is developing a car that they will sell in the US for MUCH cheaper than any other car - like, $5,000. He told us this in the beginning of the year. And it uses all...

    ...on China and India...

    Yeah, there's a lot of things that we might want to be worried about. My Chinese history professor is telling us every day about how people are saying this is going to be the "decade/century" of Asia. China has a lot of experience in trade with the US. India has a lot of experience with...

    Guns for Terrorists-

    Actually, the ban on assault rifles did little, if anything. It only looked at size of clips and such to judge if it was an assault rifle or not. Even if a terrorist is "anyone with a criminal background" I dont think I'd want anyone with a criminal background hanging around with a gun...

    Hollywood vs Silicon Valley (Copyright vs File sharing)

    Sander is right. There was an article on /. a few weeks ago. Some PhD professor at a university wrote a filesharing program in 15 lines of code to show that its impossible to ban them. Using the program you can send files between users. Same concept. Tiny P2P

    Muslim Poster Kills Himself While Online (?)

    I skipped half this crap because its too long. But I must say, all 16 year olds who "try to commit suicide" are just full of angst. There is nothing you can do to warrant yourself to want to commit suicide. I agree with Kharn, if this kid is pussy to live, pfft. Also, when I was in high...

    Hollywood vs Silicon Valley (Copyright vs File sharing)

    No matter what anyone does, there will be a way to 1. Break into files that are protected. 2. Distribute files over the internet. There are always ways to hide where no one can find you and trade things off. P2P works so well with that, but that article is right, using P2P is one of the...

    China and the United States-

    My history class (Far Eastern History) in Rutgers is taught by a Chinese history professor who was born in China and goes on lecture tours in China every few years. He says (and cites people on his ideas) that China is so intertwined with the US, that nothing can really change. China has...

    Supreme Court says no killing teens!

    Most American prisons are full of satellite TV, weight rooms, and all this good stuff. I see a lot of people who kill someone and only get "10 - 30 years." That's not equal.

    Supreme Court says no killing teens!

    But... how can anyone kill another being and get away with it? I understand "your mind isn't mature" but one of the basic things in life is not to harm other people. By tying someone up, or pointing a gun at their face, that's saying something right there.

    Gay Soldiers never leave their buddies' behind

    I don't know how much you have all dealt with gay people, but they don't just walk around flirting with everything that has a penis. Straight men only think about sex. It's sad... Women and gay men can actually control themselves and not try to hit on anything. Hard concept. The...

    The future of transport as predicted in the 50s and 60s

    Technically, we do have a type of "anti-gravity" transportation. In Japan, the bullet train is run on magnets. Reversing the polarity lifts the train off the track and lets it shoot forward with far less friction.

    The future of transport as predicted in the 50s and 60s

    Why does that look like sperm in a penis? If you watch, some of the autos presented on this site will have similarities to things that are going to come out in a few years. Trends are seeing a lot of older cars/concepts coming back in new style.

    Gay Soldiers never leave their buddies' behind

    This is the same issue with women's rights and minority/black rights. Now its all about gay rights. Obviously, there's going to be huge controvery for so many years, and then everyone gets over it. But there will always be small factions fighting it. Then next will be robots/cyborgs...
