Re: Where are America's Morals

Right after you thumb through a dictionary. You would be hard-pressed to adequately contest a well-founded (if I do say so myself), philosophical statement using any number of unconflicting historical accounts.

Re: Where are America's Morals

You're wrong, Ferno. There is nothing intrinsically primitive or pre-developed about raping a young boy. This is not something that is in any way normative before a culture becomes more enlightened or "evolved". It's no less wrong/evil/backwards for one culture or people than for another. ...

Re: Mouse/KB time for a change?

More power to you if you're thinking of switching to mouse, Readyman. I've heard good things about accuracy improvements over stick use. Personally I just can't get around having to delegate so much to my keyboard hand. If you're willing to get a little more use out of your 3D Pro, I just posted a w...

Re: Where are America's Morals

I also think that beating a man for first molesting a boy and then beating the boy's mother shouldn't be grounds for anything but a pat on the back or a firm handshake in a man's military. If the incident forces his superiors into conflict with the locals then it may be a little disruptive, but I wo...

Not a lot of details about the whole make-up of the specific incident, but given the description of the situation being described on that video I would say the morale of our entire military presence over there is at stake.

There was passing mention by some of the Revival folks, more than once, of a desire to release the D3 source code. :( :D That's not a guarantee that anything will happen, but it shows it's a thought at least.
