    Favorite Linux distros

    Unity has matured nicely though. Not a bad UI at all at this point. Favorite distro is Debian.

    Nate Silver makes final updates of 2016 Election

    He'll probably miss a few this time, but he should get more right than wrong and Hillary should win.

    Have you heard from the game "I am not"? Only so many do not know how to not even "ask"?

    Has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

    Texas May Have Executed an Innocent Man

    Anytime people ask me why I oppose the death penalty, cases like this are one reason I offer in response.

    Identify this spider!!!

    Nicer after he stopped moving. I put him in the sink for his posterity shot. I'll abide wolf spiders and camel crickets, but I'm not looking to share my domicile with anything that likes to hide in clothes and causes skin to slough of when it bites.

    Identify this spider!!!

    Nah. Here's a recluse I found in my kids' bathroom the other day. They're unfortunately very common here in Alabama.

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    The information he "discovered" (pulled out of thin air) makes no sense at all, and anyone with even the teensiest modicum of knowledge in medicine would realize it instantly. He was no expert. He was a charlatan. Not to toot my own horn, but my field does require me to maintain a decent...

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    I'm marginalizing him because he was obviously flat wrong. His description of the mechanism by which vaccines supposedly caused injury is literally insane to anyone with the slightest inkling of human physiology and it was quite obviously a money making scheme.

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    They conveniently forgot to mention that he was a conspiracy theorist, 9/11 truther and germ theory denialist. Also, he only claimed to have an MD and was never licensed to practice medicine. Anywhere. ETA: Did a bit more research. Apparently, his idea was all disease is caused by white blood...

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    It is my opinion, but it's also the one modern evidence based medicine agrees with. Most herbal remedies are nothing more than snake oil. Same with the essential oils. Die much younger. Yeah. That's why I included the phrase "by and large." Does the fact that they're "natural" have any...

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    LOL not exactly my point. Water, food, the constituent parts of air? All chemicals. Everything that is made of matter is a chemical. And you really should get your kids vaccinated. There's a very good reason we live so much longer in this day and age. It's called modern medicine. Herbs and...

    Vaccine / religious belief correlation

    That's kind of difficult to pull off. Don't like water, food, air etc? Or for that matter, anything made of matter?
