Sad part is, we don't know it for sure

Oh no we do know for sure. I don't think Obama would make a huge announcement about Bin Ladens death to only be later embarrassed if he ever showed his face to the world again. Seriously, even if Bin-Laden is alive he doesn't really exist to us anymore.

Charles Manson was a muslim ! Don't touch the coran , it might burn your hands !

Oh just a last one for the fun: don't eat hallal, you are supporting terrorists !

Who knows if an american soldier wasn't killed because you ate hallal !

Shame on you !

Be a true patriot, and support the next war on Syria/ Iran / ??

It's ok to bombard some country , it's for the sake of democracy.

Libya feel much better now, it lost all it's economy, but it's free!

not all Muslims are terrorists, but 99% of terrorists are Muslims and there are ALOT of terrorists. ;) FACT

What side are you on? For their way of thought, its black and white, no grey.

before defending their actions remember the Muslim theme song :

1) make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their home. Surah 9:73M

2) Muhammad is God's apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers Surah 48:29

Most people, yes, that includes white Christians, consider Americans to be terrorists.

The fact is, if you instill fear in to another, you are by every definition a "terrorist". Ever scare your little sister as a kid? Yeah? I've got news for you.

IRA is gone, you are living in the 90's.

If only this was true. The IRA are not gone. The main group is gone, but the splinters are very much alive. The Real IRA (RIRA) still exist, and occasionally you see police clampdowns in the region because of terrorist threats and terrorism in general. There are bomb threats every month in this country, if not more frequently still. The splinters of the UVF, the UDR, and the UDA are all also still going. The LVF stopped actions in 2005, but I'd guarantee there are still hardliners from it as well.

You might think the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 put all the Troubles in this country to a halt, but nope. It was signed in April 1998... then this happened in August 1998. That town is not far from where I live. April 2011, another bomb goes off in the same town in a car, killing a police-man. Dissidents threatened a bomb in London; May 16th 2011.

Just because the Troubles are over in this country does not mean the terrorists in it have stopped. Most of these acts are performed by Catholics and Protestants; not Muslims. I'd say that more than 1% of terrorists are not Islamic. All it takes is extremism to be a terrorist, assuming you actually act on your views. I'm from Northern Ireland and I can definitely say that terrorism still exists here.

hate false pretense, hate all religion equally. Christians you can put up with since they don't want to harm my kids because they are unbelievers. Just like some Muslims, they can be the best of people. Its like mob-mentatily, individuality they are awesome people, but as a group their individualness disappears and they become a collective with only 1 intention.

Wow, that's a lot of hate :(

My personal opinion, and as for my knowledge, he had some severe kidney problems.

In my opinion, he died in Tora Bora. There is no way even an ant could've survived what happened there.

But if he survived that, he might still be alive. Though I agree, he's become non-existent.

About the Obama thing, he just made sure he gets elected for the second time, because he destroyed America' biggest enemy.

if they said he was alive, imagine how many Muslims would be taking buildings and people hostage demanding his release? it would be a daily thing...

Why do you associate Osama Bin Laden as some Islamic icon?

In fact to 99% of Muslims he was a pain in the arse.

It's me saying that G W Bush jnr every Americans leader and 100% of you all worship him and wish you were him.

Did you know that the Bin Laden raid and kill was happening at the same time as the Presidential Dinner 2011?

^ That's the fantasy they want you to believe.

Bin Laden died many years ago in 2002, and I'm sure they'll do whatever it would take to keep anyone from proving otherwise.

That's what THEY what YOU to believe. In fact, OBL was taken away in a space ship at birth and replaced by an (illegal) alien from the planet Zorf!

IMO terrorist activities or evil deeds in general can never be linked specifically to a single religion. Its immature to do so. For example Hitler was a Christian wasn't he? What about the Nazi army? They were all Christians, I'm guessing so were Stalin & his goons. That doesn't make Christianity any less beautiful & peace loving than we all know it is.

Similarly what is done by few evil men like Osama can't be made to stand against Islam.

Bahaha! How ridiculous. We'll just ignore the IRA, The Communist Party of India, Shining Path, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia...yeah, that's a real fact you have there...

Communist Party of India is not a terrorist organization, thy are just dumbasses who want free money for all the lazy idiots who support them.

"Terrorism" seems to be branching out into all different directions in terms of it's defintion. Be more specific like "Islamic terrorism", which is the violence of Muslims according to Jihad. Does the Bible command & justify Christians warring against unbelievers who oppose it and take a stand directly against Christianity? Even the most tortured interpretation would have a hard time coming up with that one. Does the Quran justify war against unbelievers who oppose Islam and take a stand directly against it? sure seems to be that millions of jihadists who say so from their own lips...and act accordingly. I would say Islam does teach holy war against those who refuse to submit and Muhammad said it was the duty of all Muslims. Now are all Muslims active in Jihad? No...but is Jihad real? Of course it is.

Did you do your own head count on that throught? There are about 1.6 billion muslims in the world. So even if there were a few million who believed that, that still leaves hundreds of millions who dont. Islam really isnt different the other religions in the way that there are different sects of christianity. As well as the level of devotion by the people of each religion/view. Suggesting that becuase 1 or 2% of those that follow islam view militant way, some how represents the whole or majority of the religion is ignorant at best. Jihad for some is real, dont think anyone is denying that but it's far from the majority view.

I think it's false to equate Islam and Christianity. You might have a relatively small group of Muslims who are committed to jihad when you consider there are 1.x billions Muslims worldwide, but there seems to be legions of Muslims who support them. Either indirectly, by making excuses for their actions or trying to downplay the issue of jihad, or directly through funding and open support.

You also can't ignore the Islamic militias in Africa who are killing scores of people with the hope of converting the entire continent to Islam. Sure, Christians send in their missionaries and try to convert people, but you can't pretend it's the same thing.

Of course, it's worth noting that many millions of Muslims are victims of their cruel, Muslim rulers. Military, political and Royal leaders who couldn't care less about their faithful brothers and sisters. Who live in the lap of luxury while people around them are starving and dying.

Subtitle Edit 5.0.0 changelog: Subtitle Edit 5 is a major new release and a big step for the project. For the first time, Subtitle Edit runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux from a single, modern, cross-platform codebase. The builds are self-contained, so no separate .NET installation is required, and on macOS and Linux the needed media components (mpv/ffmpeg) are bundled in. Please read before upgrading: Subtitle Edit 5 is a new application, not just an update of Subtitle Edit 4. It has been rebuilt from the ground up to be cross-platform, so: It is not 100% the same app. The look, layout, and some workflows have changed. Some things are in different places, and a few behave differently than in SE4. Not every SE4 feature exists in SE5 yet. SE5 covers all the core editing, conversion, sync, video playback, OCR, and online services, but some of the more specialized SE4 tools are not available yet. Features will continue to be added. If you rely on a specific SE4 feature that is missing, please keep SE4 installed alongside SE5. The easiest way to run both side by side is to use the Portable versions of SE4 and SE5, which keep their settings separate and do not interfere with each other. Which version should I use? Subtitle Edit 5: recommended for most users on Windows 10 (22H2) or newer, macOS 12+, and Linux. Subtitle Edit 4: please continue to use SE4 if you are on an older Windows version (Windows 7/8), or on older / slower computers where SE5 may not run well. SE4 remains available and is the right choice in those cases. To run SE4 and SE5 at the same time, use the Portable versions - you can try SE5 while keeping SE4 as a fallback.

    • Google Pixel 11 series: Here's what to expect by Hamid Ganji Google Pixel 10 series In recent years, Google has successfully turned its Pixel devices into worthy contenders in the smartphone market. The search giant is now preparing to launch the Pixel 11 series in just a few months, and many Pixel fans are likely wondering what Google has in store for them this year. The next lineup of Google smartphones includes four devices: the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. This year, we don’t expect Google to bring revolutionary upgrades to its handsets, and the Pixel 11 series is likely to receive modest hardware improvements alongside a slew of AI-powered features. Here are the rumored specifications of the Google Pixel 11 series ahead of its official debut: When will the new Pixel phones be unveiled? The last two generations of Google Pixel phones (Pixel 9 series and Pixel 10 series) were launched in August, unlike the previous three generations that debuted in October. With that in mind, we expect Google to unveil the Pixel 11 series sometime in August 2026. The exact launch date has yet to be confirmed. Google Pixel 11 CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines How much will the Pixel 11 series cost? Predicting the final price of upcoming smartphones has become increasingly difficult. As you may know, RAM and memory prices are rising sharply, leading to significant increases in the cost of consumer electronics. Recently, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that price increases for some future Apple products are unavoidable, suggesting that the iPhone 18 series could become more expensive. Google has remained tight-lipped about any potential price increases for the Pixel 11 series. If the company manages to maintain last year’s pricing structure, here’s what the lineup could cost: Pixel 11: $799 Pixel 11 Pro: $999 Pixel 11 Pro XL: $1,199 Pixel 11 Pro Fold: $1,799 Given current market conditions, it may be difficult for Google to avoid raising prices unless it adopts cost-saving measures, such as equipping the base model with 8GB of RAM. Google Pixel 11 series anticipated specs: We expect the Google Pixel 11 series to debut with a new Tensor G6 processor as well as an upgraded camera system. The overall design, however, is expected to remain largely unchanged across the lineup. Specifications Pixel 11 Pixel 11 Pro Pixel 11 Pro XL Pixel 11 Pro Fold Display 6.3-inch LTPO AMOLED / 120Hz refresh rate / up to 3100 nits of brightness 6.3-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 6.8-inch Super Actua LTPO OLED, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness 8-inch inner screen and 6.4-inch outer display, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 3600 nits of brightness RAM & Processor Tensor G6 / 8-12GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 12-16GB of RAM Tensor G6 / 16GB of RAM Storage options 128GB or 256GB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB 256GB, 512GB, 1TB Camera 50MP main sensor, 13MP ultra-wide, 10.8MP 5x telephoto, 10.5MP front camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 48MP ultra-wide, 48MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom, 42MP selfie camera 50MP main camera, 10.5MP ultra-wide camera, 10.8MP telephoto camera, 10MP front camera, 10MP inner camera Battery 4,840 mAh 4,707 mAh 5,000 mAh 4,658 mAh Software Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 Android 17 The Pixel 11 series won’t be a major departure from its predecessor, with Google instead focusing on subtle improvements and AI additions such as Gemini Intelligence. However, a patent filed by Google suggests the company is working on a removable battery for its smartphones, and we could see this feature make its way to the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Given that nearly all smartphones today lack removable batteries, such a feature would be a welcome addition to future Pixel devices. That said, it may not arrive with this year’s lineup after all, and the final decision is yet to be made by Google. The Pixel 11 series could also face an uphill battle in the market. In the Android segment, Samsung is performing well with the Galaxy S26 series, while the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup is also expected to launch next month. On the other hand, Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max in September alongside its first foldable iPhone.
    • At least AMD is still taking Windows 10 seriously (after the oops) before it consumer extended support ends. @WaltC - Memories, 2x Voodoo in SLI with a Riva TNT with an Aureal A3D soundcard.
    • So size is the ONLY selling point????? People have been plugging in PC's to TV's in living rooms for 20+ years. I would take a bigger box for more peformance. Also lot and lots of SFF/Mini ITX build guides out there.
