Pretty much what Magic: The Gathering did. New rules... All the time

This is why you are required by law to help help someone in danger in Canada.

But yeah, no wonder I hate people

To be honest, I don't dislike the Conservative. But I wouldn't been happy with ANY majority, right now.

Seriously. It's not even something that works "in theory". Considering that "in theory" you could manage to get EVERY seats with only a few votes more than another party.

Wonder why people aren't voting more? What's the point when your vote is likely to MEAN nothing

(edit: see also: UK in 2005)

As opposed to a majority... they'd have to form a minority government, of course, and that has its own problems (as a Canadian would know much better than I would)

Though the problem with proportional representation is that you lose local representation, which is kind of bad.

Local Representation doesn't really work as it is. Districts are broken (your vote is "worth" more in Saskatchewan than it is in Quebec or Ontario, for the most part, because of districts with ~50k people compared to ~100k people)

But yeah, I'd rather we have an overall representation becased on global vote percentage. At least, then, each vote is worth the same (which is the whole point of "democracy", to begin with).

I still think this is the best version of Firefox since its early days (maybe FF2 or before that even).

To me, Firefox 3 has been shitty all around.

My school upgrades their stuff pretty frequently (all computers are on Win7)

Some labs in my department also have quad core/8gb/ dual screen setups.


And the people who set things up are pretty knowledgable.

If a door lock is of poor quality and an intruder comes into my home, it's not his fault?


Poor security isn't helping, but please stop shifting responsibility. The hack is the one hurting people, no matter what the security was.
