Spam in the Middle of Nowhere
Ok, some of you know I'm the admin on the GearHead wiki. Now, we don't
have a chronic problem with spam. It's just a small part of maintence.
Our problem is this: Why are there spammers on a wiki that sees ten
people a day? Including spammers, lurkers, and myself (and the fellow
admin), we have a population of about 50, but we have little traffic
(or so I estimate) off the main page. So why bother spamming if you
don't have a link to your spam and nobody will see it but the admin
deleting it anyways?
Was Religion Ever Wrong?
Now, this is a response to Scotteh's posts of "Why didn't religion admit it was wrong" or something like that.
Was religion ever wrong? I never count anywhere in the Bible where the
rules of science are broken by any man. Sure the church had some things
wrong, but the medieval church was corrupt and full of lies and
treachery, more similar to an communist society than a theocracy. When
you say "Religion is wrong.", where is it wrong? It is the only
scientifically and historically accurate book dating back more than a
thousand years, so, tell me exactly, why is it wrong again? Is it
because you don't believe it? I don't believe in Macro-Evolution,
because I cannot fathom life without other life (or forces) causing it,
does that make it wrong? So tell me, how was religion wrong? Use quotes
of Jesus to prove that he ever lied, use excerpts from the Bible to
disprove it.
Internet Woes
Why is the internet
so slow? I pay for supposedly 4MB/s down cable, and I'm lucky to get
1MB/s off of a three-way split, with one computer inactive all the
time. Same with the up, 3 computers, 1/4th each. Also, why does my
internet go down so often. I have my TV on the same service, so it
takes out all my news and media, and I don't wanna use a radio (because
my attention span is zero and I won't hear a thing the people are
saying)! It's not like I don't pay these dingbats a lot of money each
month to give me downtime. And then they find a subtle way to increase
the price. Their prices? They're probably paying less. So why am I
paying more to have repairs done on something that they err in?
