So what is your opinion of Bill Maher?
I think Hitchens characterized Maher's fans pretty well.

Oh good, a useful spelling correction.
Well, it was somewhat useful. Irreverent is a completely different word, so Joe's absence here might be due to him preaching fire and brimstone to his plumbing rather than fixing it properly.
(I keed, Joe, I keed!)

when needing something technical answered, always default to the youngest one in the room. youd be amazed at what 12 year olds know about computers these days, having NEVER lived in a world without the internet...
I have to disagree. I just think that while most 12 year olds will have a cursory knowledge of computers and the internet, enough to fix small problems, etc, they will not be able to find, or even think about the possibility of, stealthy programs that you installed while they were sound asleep.
I don't have kids, nor do I interact with any around the age of 12, so maybe I'm wrong at this point.

That's assuming he's using the OS installed on the machine. There's nothing to stop him from burning a boot ISO from the internet, popping it in the DVD tray, and booting off of that instead. Best part - no logs for dad to be able to see. Can do the same thing with USB.
Yes, you could potentially block booting from anything but the harddrive -- but he could reset the CMOS to avoid that...
#1 rule in security - if you can't stop the bad guy (the son, in this case) from having physical access to the box, you can't protect the box.
I knew some of that, but how many 12 year olds will? Once he's 14, 15, 16, he'll be much more likely to know those things, but at the same time the risk of him doing something catastrophic will be smaller, as he'll be more mature and worldly.

Look his original post. He tends to say the same things over and over again in multiple threads, thus the confusion.
Ah geez, I am confused.

As did I - my Dad's stack of Penthouse/Playboy on the bookshelf in his room, my mom's book about the Biology of Women (Our Bodies, Ourselves I think it was called) etc.
But an open internet makes it way too easy for the kid, and very easy for one thing to lead to another which can have very dire consequences.
Jay, I'm going to catch a lot of hell for this, but there are some keylogging programs that can run in the background of an OS and require a special hotkey and password to access.
I realize not all parents will be into that kind of thing, but PM me if you want some more info.

Not only that, but as bad as Obama is, no one would have the nerve to put Joe Biden in the oval office on purpose.
That is a great point.

Hi, I'm a wiener.
You sure are.

I don't think any DA in Illinois will prosecute that man.

You are up 2-0, as everyone votes 1-0.
Sweet.

No no, that was a vote for you to win. Levi is in the lead!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's a ballot now?

Levi?

I don't recall saying any of that.
We were initially talking about the direct effects of Al Gore's "ocean view" property purchase on Global Warming. Then you went all ADD. Pay attention!
Wrong thread there, Gene.

They're down here in Florida too. Great Burger's. They really pile on the Fries!!!
Do they just fill up bags with fries in Florida, too?
Also, aside from the burgers, I love Five Guys i because they have bottles of malt vinegar for my fries in every establishment

Nope, THIS is the worst movie ever made. Horrifying in the most horrible ways:
"VAGINA DENTATA! VAGINA DENTATA! VAGINA DENTATA!"
I won't be able to watch that movie again.

I'm calling BS on that.

Post here how the spill has had an affect on you.
I think it would be neat if we could just get all the stories in one place.
Gotta change my plans for vacation on the Gulf Coast in Florida

Can't we all just get along
Apparently the pissing contests are far too important for that.

G'morning, mead.

oh, so you're a bigot. just say that.
Slowly back away from the keyboard...
I know lots of people who aren't "pro-gay" but are more "indifferent-gay." Just because you aren't "pro-gay" doesn't mean you are "anti-gay."

Who was in charge for a hell of a lot longer than Patterson?
Pataki?
