But I do reuse passwords. :o

Honestly, everyone reuses passwords. Human brains aren't equipped well for remembering loads of passwords. The trick is to figure out passwords are important and which ones aren't. Using your online banking password on a site like the aforementioned rockyou.com is ...

In fairness, Rockyou seems like a service that, if compromised, would have minor repercussions. I have registered to a ton of sites using fake information and a password of the minimum allowable length consisting of a single repeating character. If somebody compromises the account I use to view ...

Even so, you can't deny that Google got themselves into this mess in the first place when they decided to set up shop in China. I recall reading from some article a few years ago that Eric Schmidt (CEO of Google) himself said that while he acknowledge the strict censorship in China, he still ...

That sounds relatively straightforward. I'll give it a try, thanks. A quick, tangential question: is there anyway I can put up links to sites or audio files without first sharing them on my Wall?

I think it should be possible to make a wall post, then remove it. Your file will still be under ...

Upload your audiofile to a service like tindeck, and then share a link to the file. Your audio will be available under 'links' on your page.

As an aside: When you mentioned the indoor smoking-ban, I was struck between the similarities between smoking & religion: they both tend to be rather detrimental to the health of non-groupmembers. (And groupmembers alike, come to think of it...) (Don't take this last paragraph to seriously.)

And that is not a matter of the colour of a person's skin or of their facial delineaments. It is the religion. I feel threatened by it.

We are not a religious nation. I am not religious. Even Christians in the uk are mostly not particularly religious. Muslims ARE religious, for the most part ...

Interesting that everyone seems to assume that anyone who'd vote against such a ban must be doing it on anti-muslim grounds. In most instances they are probably correct, but I have to say that if I was living in the vicinity of a proposed minaret I'd vote against them too. The thought of having ...

My mistake. Even though I heard it from other scientist (even though they're still in training), it's my mistake to blindly believe it. (it was when I called something just a theory, they replied that is the highest form something can get in science. Probably just misunderstood it, but hey.)

As a scientist,


Only scientist don't call it a fact, they call it a theory, simply because of different opinions on evolution.
Yes, they do. I'm a scientist in training and I call it a fact. Scientists I've talked to on the subject call it a fact. Biology textbooks call it a fact (see ...

I actually think the word 'fact' is often taking too lightly. I don't think, when thinking of it as a scientifique theory, you can call it a fact. People who think that the Mount Everest isn't the highest point on Earth are part of a very, very small portion of the society. There are however alot ...

Sorry to bust into the discussion, but this really bothered me. Evolution is a theory (a theory I choose to believe), it's not a fact. Theory is the highest form anything in science can get.

Any being that would lie, unknowingly or not, would not fit my definition of God, therefore any thing that God tells me I will believe. If I did not believe it, I would not be talking to God, which violates the assumption explicit in the question that I am talking to God. So, yes.
