<0> no more goats for you then...
<1> i highly doubt people should take *** advice from catholic priests
<0> bad plan ok...unless you like small boys
<1> sigh, west virginia might be (or is, wasn't paying attention) putting DDR machines in schools to get the fat kids to lose weight
<1> that's just sad
<1> i'm sure the fatties dancing on the DDR machines will not be the subject of mockery
<1> perhaps, oh i don't know, the schools could get rid of the very lucrative vending machines spewing out junk food?
<1> or the kids could exercises restraint in addition to their normal exercises?
<1> exercise
<2> kids can't exercise restraint foo
<1> they can if you beat them
<1> schools these days
<1> yeesh
<1> rapper wears a crown of thorns on the cover of rolling stones magazine, and guess who's upset
<1> freaking christians in this country
<1> well, some fundies, that is
<1> the normal christians are cool
<3> exercise is a drag.... but given almost any excuse (like having fun) kids will do it
<0> exercise s for old folk
<3> not really, for all folk
<0> in the heads of kids
<3> making kids sit on their duffs for 7 hours a day in school ain't helping
<0> i make my tribe do yoga and footie and gym
<3> I think the DDR thing may work... we got it at home so the 3 of us actually DO get some exercise
<2> yoga and footie and gym
<1> that's because you're raising a clan of pagans, bealtine
<2> sounds like bloody hard work bealtine
<1> and you need to dance around your stones
<4> lol peterhu: what's a normal christian?
<1> one that isn't "deeply and morally offended" at the picture of a rapper wearing a crown of thorns
<3> that's what we do with DDR... put the stones between the pads
<4> that's not because they're christians - draw a venn diagram...two sets..christians and weirdos
<1> yeah, that's why i corrected myself and limited it to fundies
<4> the intersection are the people to avoid
<4> I guess we don't have fundies like you do
<1> doesn't look like it
<0> whats ddr ?
<1> dance dance revolution
<1> computer game
<0> new ram plugin module for kids?
<4> don't kids have to do physical stuff at school these days?
<1> it's typically where you see tiny asian kids doing acrobatic moves, and no one else plays
<0> obviously not even the eu is on the case now...phew i suddenly feel safe
<1> yyparse, apparently not enough
<1> a dancing game will fix the problem!
<0> a quick fix will like a pill
<1> they'll still shovel the junk food down their throats
<0> or stop selling tasty foods
<4> my brother goes on about what an easy time kids have in science now
<4> (he teaches it)
<0> and all eat gr***
<1> schools, and the contracts vendors give them, won't give up being dealers of obesity
<1> kids in a lot of public schools are dumber, fatter, and more likely to be complete drain on society when they become adults, more than ever
<2> haha
<1> where science, math, and learning anything is superseded with dreams of becoming the next american idol
<3> yyparse why did they quit teaching real science?
<1> at least walmart will have an ever growing pool of employees
<4> I dunno vawjrwrk: it's quite sad. Hardly anyone wants to take physics these days
<4> it's considered boring and difficult
<1> physics is for nerds
<0> psychics was fascinating
<4> there's a load of pseudo subjects now - "media studies", sociology etc
<2> haha media studies
<1> could be worse though, you could have our schools
<1> richest nation in the world should have some of the best public schools
<0> you talking about luxembourg?
<2> haha, not quit
<2> e
<5> Pfft. Public schools should not exist. If people can't pay for their own children's education, they shouldn't have them.
<3> physics is lots of fun
<4> yes I think that's probably true for luxembourg
<3> one of Joan's college profs used to say "if it ain't fun, it ain't physics"
<4> and norway which is also one of the richest
<6> What is the richest nation? :-O
<3> peterhu the problem IS the "public" schools
<1> education curriculum, proper compensation for teachers, school safety, parent involvement? shhh! don't raise those issues, that's unamerican! instead, why don't we teach more religion in schools? that's a good issue
<1> vic, it doesn't have to be
<4> trx luxembourg has the highest GDP/Capita measured by Purchasing Power Parity
<1> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28nominal%29
<1> per capita is a weak argument
<1> as you can't FIT more than 10 people in luxembourg
<3> peterhu well, I have NO idea how you're going to solve the problems with no competition
<4> per capita is a better guess at the standard of living
<1> if that's true, then the standard of living in ireland is much better than the US
<1> and look at bealtine
<4> but PPP probably isn't the right way of measuring it, since big macs are rather undesirable to non-americans
<0> ppp ?
<4> purchasing power parity
<0> ahh
<0> per capita i would have thought
<3> if GDP/person is $1,000,000 per year is worthless if a loaf of bread costs $200,000
<4> they tweak the figures by measuring the relative cost of living in each country
<1> poor Burundi =(
<4> vawjrwrk: agreed - but PPP has it's weaknesses
<0> if its PPP dont come here
<3> and if taxes take 90%
<1> ah well, the point is: americans are dumber than they should be
<4> or if you have to pay for a private school because all the state schools are ****e
<3> peterhu not sure how you're measuring "dumb"
<0> using a dumb-o-meter
<4> the sum of the IQs on earth is a constant
<1> yep, i properly calibrated it with jblitzen prior to taking the measurements
<3> yyparse that's not demonstrated
<1> now, if only petoria could succeed from the union
<4> anyone intelligence isn't all you need. I've worked with some very intelligent people who are just so lazy they never do anything
<4> or they're just so stubborn they won't do things the way you want them too
<3> or maybe you're too dumb to see the "right" way to do them
<0> vic 1 yy nil
<4> perhaps, but when i'm the boss...
<4> well actually i'm never the boss - i've been freelance for too long
<3> I'm met a LOT of "dumb" bosses
<0> boss != intelligence
<4> indeed - but the bosses own the company
<0> now bosses = middle management
<0> the real bosses are far too smart for mere management positions
<4> depends on the size of the company
<1> secede heh
<0> i preferred suceed
<1> sometimes i type phonetic matching words and don't notice
<0> "an ode to the spellchecker"
<1> apparently, people need the source code of windows to make products that run on windows
<1> riiiiight
<7> When MS lockup information in undocumented protocols, you sort of do
<3> you're right, people are getting stupider
<7> Hence Samba 4 only just getting alphaed with full support for Active Directory from Windows *2000* (as it all had to be done via reverse engineering)
<1> as they SHOULD
<3> using undocumented stuff is dicey
<7> protocols should not be undocumented - if you're using "secret communications" as a means to keep people on your products
<1> i still fail to see anything wrong with ANY of that
<7> As MS repeatedly and consistently do - no competition on quality, but on lockin and inertia
<3> Asriel I don't see any validitiy to your argument
<1> lock-in?
<1> people can jump ship whenever they please!
<1> they just don't want to
<7> Have you read some of their arguments for not changing to open office?
<1> or it "costs too much"
<7> Such as "It's hard to convert your files across"?
<7> Well no **** MS, you designed it that way
<1> save as .txt then
<1> wtf needs the clipart
<7> Yeah, that's realistic
<8> hi, suppose if i have a member function del(), which will delete the object which is p***ed, then can i say something like A.del(&A); ? is it valid?
<1> perhaps they should have picked a better software vendor in the first place
<1> the government should stay out of it
<8> i guess, it wont be valid. right?
<3> DontDo don't do it
<7> Perhaps so. but I doubt Office says "Use this, and be glued to it forevermore" on the packaging
<3> why the hell would you want to delete your own object?
<1> what did they expect? a button that says "abandon our product!"
<1> ?
<7> No matter, the EU is finally doing something vaguely worthwhile with itself
