I want to be a mod. Which of you here are friendlies, and who do I have to buy off? I have skittles. :mrgreen: (and sour skittles for tripsis)

I suppose it's "later;" unfortunately this hasn't generated the discussion I was hoping for, maybe I can nudge it a bit. First off, I don't think this is ground breaking. Anyone who has a sibling that is two-four years old knows that when they first learn the word "mine," you'll hear it constantly. Everything that interests them becomes "mine," and you'll be damned if you take it away from "me". Typically as adults we spend the next 3-10 years teaching children how to play nice, how to share. That's it though, we're conditioned to share. We're not conditioned to learn property rights, we're born with that knowledge. Further extrapolate this to political systems. As humans, we're capitalists by nature. That is to put it simply, "mine." My number one priority is looking out for me, and whatever makes me happy (we're selfish). The concept of sharing is learned, it isn't natural. Socialism (sharing) requires a much more strict set of rules, and requires everyone to abide by the rules to work. Just as when we were little, there might be a jerk that would hog all the resources (classroom's toys). Without a fair government (a teacher) to force them to play fair, as law abiding individuals there would be nothing we could do about it. "The trouble with socialism is socialism. The trouble with capitalism is capitalists." -Willi Schlamm

From http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/74983/title/Kids_own_up_to_ownership Discuss, I'll post my opinion later.

Anyone in game named Nomrombom offering doubling is a scammer, so report them.

This is madness.

The problem is that the bot sites will undercut Jagex, always. Especially since Jagex selling gold means that GP is being artificially created; when bots sites sell GP it already has to be there. Expect massive inflation when GP is artificially created - just like PVP statuettes.

When talking about American news organizations and their biases, you'd typically use an American scale. I could take a Chinese view and call you all a bunch of right-wingers, but that doesn't help the discussion.

I'M STILL PISSED OFF AT APPLE.

And black isn't clean? You racist.

Windows is more diverse than apple. See how colorful it is?

Apple and Steve Jobs piss me off. Apple's markup on their products pisses me off. Apple screwing with its developers pisses me off ($99 a year to develop for iOS, and then they take 30% of what you sell...). I'm pretty sure its racist and intolerant too, except its fanboys are too dense to see it: [hide] (note the new logo is suspiciously white, instead of rainbow) [/hide]

Fox News Yeaaa... no. http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2011/06/16/book-liberal-media-distorts-news-bias Being someone who is extremely skeptical of government programs and spending and someone who is very far to the right on economic issues (really most issues, besides abortion and a few other social issues). Being someone who is anti state unions, anti government handouts, basically your typical republican on a lot of issues. I still see a major right leaning bias on fox news, despite agreeing with a lot of what they say. Not going to deny that other news stations arent left leaning because most of them are, but fox news is as far to the right as MSNBC is to the left. CNN is a little bit better but you would be right to say it is moderately leftist. I didnt check your source, because I dont know how reputable some little news site is, and I havent looked at enough of their articles to know if they have a bias one way or the other. U.S. News and World Report is included in the article, and is cited as being left of center.

Not necessarily, all the breaks occur in multiples of 4 (or 2?). Using that information, each group gets replaced by one. Plus, if its only for posts before a certain date, you don't run the script over the others. But like I said in the OP - no big deal.

This can't be as simple as string manipulation? Just curious, how are these forums stored?

This isn't too big of a deal, but it would be nice if we could trim the newlines out of old posts. [hide=Example:] http://forum.tip.it/topic/28891-f2p-shortcuts/ Post later down the page: maybe you should go along the other side of the manor?? you forgot this one: varrock - lumby [/hide]

Y_Guy and Rainy_Day. Seriously, get a room. :cool: EDIT: Apple pisses me off. $1200 for a Macbook Pro, $99/year developer fee, and now I have to buy a new touch because my 2nd generation doesn't support the latest ios, and they won't let me provision it without the latest and greatest? FU

I would re-learn recess, lunch, and nap time. I learned a bunch of stuff in high school that I don't have to "re-learn" because I still remember it, and because its required. I wouldn't do anything from K-8 though, as their teaching generally sucked.

You're pretty naive. Ok...how? Maybe I am, but I'd consider myself pretty left. The reason I want more socialism in our country is not, "hurr durr capitalism b teh evuls, Lenin had it rite!!!" it's because it can be a cost effective method of keeping our lower class healthy and alive while stopping the powerful from taking too much advantage from their situation. You should try reading "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Socialism" by Kevin D Williamson. Anyhow, people pushing socialism are usually pandering to popular appeal - "They stole your wealth, we're going to take it back!" They usually replace one system with another (usually in a brutal civil war), while putting themselves up top. And socialism's track record for keeping its lower class alive is pretty bad - almost all of the worst genocides can be linked to socialism/centrally planned economies.
