12/21 Has anyone seen the Weird Al video It's all about the Pentiums? It's
pretty damned funny.
\_ damn you're slow.
\_ they should've made it all about RISC.

12/21 So I'm looking for Logo information -- I go to bh's Web page, and just
below his photo is a link inviting me to "Take a look at my son Heath."
NO WAY!!! bh actually found a female to get intimate with him?
Is/was bh married? Or is this some kind of weird I-hate-my-family-so-
I'll-pick-a-new-one thing like benco and his "fathers" Allman and
McKusick?
\_ he adopted a 12 year old boy. single parent. unmarried.
\_ no, 11
\_ Some morons let that total bug eyed freak get his molestor's
dirty fat little paws on a helpless child which he promptly
posted pictures of on the net? WTF is this country coming to?
Next, they'll let queers marry.
\_ You obviously don't know BH personally. So quit trolling.
FYI, there's no law (or reason) against posting your kids'
pictures on the net, he wanted a kid for nearly a decade,
and had to put up with the social service system (which is
ridiculously biased against men) for that long, and has
a master's in clinical psychology to show for the statement
that he's capable of caring for the kid properly.
\_ Oh yeah, I went to school so I must know all about kids!
You're so completely clueless and dense. There's a very
good reason they don't give children to unmarried men.
The only shock is that they let freakoid have one after
*any* number of years of trying. Normal people who want
kids try out this thing called "marriage" and they "have
sex" and "procreate". Try it sometime... or in your
case, please don't. The gene pool is sufficiently
polluted.
\_ I agree. Lezbo "couple" adoptions and sperm
inseminations should be banned by law. |

12/21 Need solaris sparc 2.4 gcc binary. url/ftpP
\_ Get the source tarball from http://ftp.gnu.org and compile it on
a solaris machine that already has a C compiler. I am still
wondering though, _why_ would you want such an old gcc version?
Heck, may be you should try something even older, gcc 1.x maybe?
\_ he's asking for a version for solaris 2.4, not gcc version
2.4 you twink. -tom
\_ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/packages/solaris/sparc/GNUgcc.2.8.1.SPARC.Solaris.2.4.pkg.tgz
bu Tom's answer is funnier. -ax
thanks - paolo (the app I'm looking at was designed for 2.4, hasn't
been ported to anything later than that. |

12/22 I know the motd is not normally a place to say anything remotely
serious, but this seems pretty important to me. There is a petition
to legalize same sex marriage in California. It needs signatures
to get on the ballot. They are asking people to download the
signature form off the web and fill it out. If you are registered to
vote in California and feel same sex marriages are important please
either visit the web site at http://www.samesexmarriage.org (.com is a
straight porn site btw) or take a look at /tmp/csua/petition.pdf.
-aspo
\_ Windows RULES! Linux SUX! BAN Linux.
\_ I'd feel my marriage was somehow something less if reduced to a
mere legal contract so queers can feel good about being queer. Go
feel good some where else. Not interested.
\_ Won't move back to CA until you can marry your boyfriend? That's
pretty serious. I'll be signing so we can get it on the ballot and
vote it down and be done with it.
\_ This last weekend, a man and woman came to my door taking a tally
of people supporting a proposition in march to explicitly ban
same-sex marriages in CA. I don't know what was more disturbing,
that they supported the ban, or that they had a printout of the
names and addresses of all registered voters in my neighborhood.
\_ Voter registration lists are public record and easily
obtained. Candidates & parties use them all the time
to mail out flyers.
\_ Since there's a petition to legalize between man & man and women &
women, is there a petition to legalize marriages between brother &
sister, uncle & niece, aunt & nephew, father & daughter, mother &
son, and so on?
\_ Orthogonal, and no it is not. It is a good and
\_ I'm not sure aobut mother & son type marriages, but it is
legal to marry your niece/nephew. Get a clue. And stop
trolling. -aspo
\_ No it is not legal in this State to marry your niece/nephew.
Check out Family Code Section 2200 in
http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/calaw.html My point is that why
should we accept one kind of biologically wrong marriage but
reject other kinds.
\_ and same sex marriage is biologically wrong how? is
opposite sex marriage biologically wrong if they use
birth control?
\_ No, not nature-wise. Opposite sex couples who take
pills are still biologically "right" (or "fit", or
"appropriate") for reproduction nature-wise. They just
cognitively decide to disrupt nature.
\_ so marriage has to have something to do with the
possibility of reproduction even if the couple plans
to never have children? should people who become
sterile non-"cognitively" be banned from marrying?
\_ No I didn't think that. Rather, I agree with the
"Marriage is either simply a legal contract ...
or marriage is a special institution ..."
paragraph below that someone else wrote.
\_ What is "special" about it, such that the
State has a vested interest in promoting it?
I am personally offended that a special
interest group gives itself priviledges
that it denies a minority group simply
due to religious superstition. -ausman
\_ Either you think it's "special"; or you
don't, in which case it appears that you
would think we should accept marriage
between any two individuals, including man
and man, uncle and niece, and so on.
& man, uncle & niece, bro & sis, and so on.
\_ well then, I stand corrected. However you still should
\_ No, actually. Orthogonal.
get a clue and stop trolling. Oh and if it really matters
to you get your own petition started. This issue is
orthogonal to the issue. -aspo
\_ Disagreement is not trolling. You've had your say
and other think you're wrong. Tough shit.
\_ But trolling often takes the form of disagreement.
\_ Orthoganal, and no it is not. It is a good and
relavent point. Marriage is either simply a legal
contract, which should be enterable by any two
OR MORE adults, in which case this law doesn't go
far enough and simply heaps irrationality on
irrationality, or marriage is a special
institution designed to foster a particular
morality/behaviour by recognizing and to some
degree rewarding said behaviour, in which case
\_ Unfortunately, marriage is also associated with
the "right" to be parents in many peoples minds.
To truly fix the system, the state should declare
marriage a religious ceremony it no longer has
anything to do with, and make all people who want
the traditional marriage benefits sign a
domestic partnership contract (gets rid of the
whole pre-nup mess as well, since that would be
included in the contract). Those who want to be
parents should be required to get a license,
everyone else given mandatory birth control. Then
you've taken both religion & genetics out of the
picture, and prevented a whole lot of unwanted
pregnancies and children born to people who can't
or won't take care of them.
homosexual marriages don't fit the bill. |
