    Will this sell?

    I don't see why someone would use a program to solve a Sudoku puzzle. It defeats the purpose of doing the Sudoku in the first place.

    Texting while driving

    By that logic, garrettroyce, cars should have one seat only, with no air conditioning, heat, cruise control, flashers, or radio. Windows should be fixed and manual transmissions should be banned. Would you ban windshield wipers in case it started raining and someone had to turn them on while...

    Texting while driving

    I'm not against banning texting while driving. As everyone before me has stated, it's a distraction. But more importantly, it's negligent behavior. You could easily total your car, seriously hurt yourself or someone else, kill yourself or someone else, or all of the above. Is sending a text...

    Death Penalty

    That's a totally different issue altogether. It really doesn't have anything to do with the death penalty or fiscal responsibility on the part of the government. Hospitals are generally a bit different than prisons in that insurance monies help keep them solvent. I just don't see how you draw...

    Death Penalty

    Very well said, essellar. I was getting ready to make a post along those same lines, but I think you said it better than I could.

    Obama

    If bin Laden was taken to trial, it wouldn't have been for war crimes. Crimes against humanity, perhaps, but not war crimes. And the trial would not have been conducted by or in the United States; but in the ICC in the Hague. According to your argument, bin Laden was NOT interested in causing...

    iPhone 5 or Not?

    My HTC Desire rocks pretty hard...although it's probably a little outdated.

    Death Penalty

    Being in prison costs taxpayers money. Not the convict.

    Death Penalty

    I think it's a matter of constitutional interpretation. If there's a passage in a constitution dealing with "preservation of life," does that mean the preservation of every single human life living in the country? Or does it mean the preservation of the life of the country? One could argue that...

    Obama

    You can't prove an opinion or a potential outcome. But I can guarantee you that, if implemented, high speed rail will become simply another government-subsidized industry. Add that to the subsidies for (potentially) health care, agriculture, and gasoline, along with entitlement programs and the...

    Obama

    High speed rail is a joke. It's just a gimmick. People talk about other countries having high speed rail like it's the holy grail or something. They invoke it to make Americans feel like we are somehow inferior to other countries because we lack high speed rail. It's rhetoric, and nothing more...

    Death Penalty

    That doesn't make logical sense. Just look at the numbers of people on death row vs. the number of people serving other sentences, and the numbers would at least even out, if not tip in favor of non-death penalty inmates. The number of death penalty trials just simply isn't significant enough...

    Death Penalty

    In this day and time, we do not have the resources to simply put people in jail for life. It costs almost $23,000 per inmate per year as far as operating costs and care.[1] And there are over two million people in either jail or prison in the US.[2] While your goal is laudable, I just don't...

    Death Penalty

    I think when you start distinguishing between classes of human, you're starting down a slippery slope. Does this simply end with criminals, or do you make this distinction for all groups of people? I just think that way of thinking can be very dangerous.

    Death Penalty

    I'm going to say that I support the death penalty. To my line of thinking, it may not necessarily be a deterrent, or the setting of an example, to others. If I may make an unqualified statement, I'm fairly certain that studies have shown that capital punishment cannot be shown to be a deterrent...

    Xbox 360 General Hardware Failure

    Anything is covered for free within the first three years. After that, they'll still repair it, but at a cost. My console is pushing four years.

    Xbox 360 General Hardware Failure

    Hey folks, I'm experiencing a general hardware failure on my Xbox 360. This is also referred to as an E74 or one blinking red light. I'm just wondering if any of you had ever experienced this. If so, what would the out-of-warranty cost be of having Microsoft repair the problem? Would I simply...
