Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5!
An anonymous coward writes: Having been a loyal iTunes user for quite some time, after seeing the report on Ars Technica about the newly released Winamp 5 Final, I simply had to try it out. It's pretty amazing, rivaling iTunes in many ways on Windows (mainly, speed). Ripping, library, etc: They're all there. Plus it comes with a slew of of new scriptable features. Simply put, it's dead sexy. Get your copy now! Note, last link requires some other OS.
I got it! woohoo!

"God Bless America, where "democracy" means a rich, white male as President"
:)
This shows you are a racist and a sexist, and that is all.
"God Bless America, the biggest consumer of the world's natural resources"
All of which are paid for. so?
"God Bless America, so happy to violate international laws"
Does not happen.
"God Bless America, where "freedom of speech" means race-hate groups like KKK"
And hate groups like Marxist-Leninists and everyone else who wants to say a thing: the country with the most open media in the world (the least government control).
"God Bless America, and its massive and ever-growing poverty gap"
Yes. Some people have 2 cars and others have 14. The gap between the haves and the have-mores is such a big deal!
"God Bless America, all its appalling "sitcoms" with no grasp of irony"
If you do not like them, change the channel.
"God Bless America, with the highest obesity levels in the developed world"
Just another sign of prosperity
"God Bless America, because corporations should be allowed to run amok"
That's not America, because in America, corporations are taxed to hell and back and the silly regulations get piled on.
"God Bless America, wasting billions to attack foreign countries"
When the countries attack us first, like Iraq, it is not a waste at all.
"God Bless America, and thank God I don't have to live there."
You're probably Eurotrash, whom America had to save again and again.
I love the way that konqueror (kde3.2) handles audio cds. It makes a virtual file system where it sorts the songs by sevral means as well as providing virtual files in .wav and vob standard which you can drag right to another folder and it gets ripped right away
overall, its nicer having separate programs for playing/riping/burning, etc.

"Wow, you really are walled-up in your own little world, aren't you!
It's called planet Earth.
"Corporations do run amok. Look at what SCO is doing -- other countries have put a stop to that kind of behaviour."
The problem really is with attorneys, who are allowed to lie in the courtroom and file frivolous lawsuits (like the infamous time when they sued McDonald's for someone spilling hot coffee on her own lap).
"Invading Iraq violated international laws."
No, it did not.
"And exactly how did Iraw attack you first? Do you really believe what you've just said?"
Only because it is true. "Iraq" attacked US peacekeepers scores of times over several years, and was told to stop.
"Yah, saying that a country never had any president from one sex is a sign of racist"
.. like denouncing the verdicts of internation court ??"
.. are paying "heavy" tax."
Actually, that is a sign of your sexism.
"Paid by the money looted from sources like currently run Iraq ? Good !!"
Bringing freedom to Iraq has cost the U.S. much more than will ever be made by free trade with the country.
"Yah
Illegitimate kangaroo courts deserve no respect.
"Yah, like Al-Jazeera was banned (or attempted to do so) during the Iraq war ?"
They were not banned. They in fact grew.
"Yah, Like how Microsoft, CISCO
Yes, they are. Hundreds of millions in fact!
"When did Iraq attack you ?"
Many times during the years leading up to the US retaliation. (peacekeepers who were patrolling areas, which Iraq agreed to in cease fire)
"But never mind you are an american."
Which, as a country, is more informed on the Iraq situation.
"So two things are forbidden for you(FACTS and HISTORY)"
Both are on my side, while you are making stuff up.
"And you are surely american who's brain ceases to exist when it comes to stupid patriotism"
I only support my government when it is doing the correct thing.
"Good day american !! watch fair and balanced Foxnews and improve your knowledge about world further.!!!"
That is a good idea. Fox provides a centrist balance to the left-wing media that dominates in the U.S. However, it is just one of my many sources.
actually, some people may not know what an .exe is. or they may assume it is just a mis-named zip. or something.
I highly doubt it.
. there is nothing wrong with pointing out that the file at the link provided is platform specific.
I never said there was.
I also don't find it insulting to say "some other OS." He probably is not using Windows. It's not like he said "some other CRAPPY OS".
Then why didn't he just call it Windows?
If there's anything worse than ia troll, it is someone hunting imaginary trolls.
That's nice, but it's a bit unrelated to what I've said, now isn't it?

"Then why is communism illegal in USA?"
It is quite legal, and there are hundreds of thousands of communists. The Communist Party even appears on voting ballots a lot of the time, and their publications and web sites are easily within reach.
The only time there have been legal problems in recent decades (after the McCarthy fiasco) is when the communists are paid representatives of foreign powers (such as CPUSSR members).
Winblows!

The reason Bush will win in 2004 has nothing to do with Diebold. Even if Diebold cooks up 700,000 votes, it won't make a difference. You can even exclude Florida entirely: it won't matter.
The real reason is that they are likely to nominate Dean, who appeals only to a fringe (a LOUD fringe, but a fringe nonetheless). The Democratic Party process has so far shut out men like Lieberman, Edwards, and Gephardt who are the only ones who are likely to appeal to the center. Without the center, the Democrats have lost.
The US has its flaws, but you go too far.
God Bless America, with the worst crime levels in the first world
Irrelevant. That is the fault of the people committing the crimes, and no one else. I could likely find a rather large number of criminals where you live, but you have neglected to provide that information.
God Bless America, where "democracy" means a rich, white male as President
Irrelevant. If a rich white male is elected, then a rich white male is elected. That's all it means.
God Bless America, the biggest consumer of the world's natural resources
Irrelevant, given that all are either produced here or duly purchased from others. It is not as though they are stolen.
God Bless America, so happy to violate international laws
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, my friend.
God Bless America, where "freedom of speech" means race-hate groups like KKK
Where freedom of speech means real freedom of speech for all people, even those despised by society. Better than driving them underground, so you can pretend that the problems don't exist.
God Bless America, and its massive and ever-growing poverty gap
Documentation, please.
God Bless America, with barely 300 years of dire history and culture
The US is a young nation; so what?
God Bless America, all its appalling "sitcoms" with no grasp of irony
Yes, the US has some bad TV shows. It also has some good ones. Mind you, I find it interesting that many of the worst "American" TV shows are actually concepts ripped wholesale from other countries. Witness Coupling, Survivor, and Big Brother, to name only three.
God Bless America, with the highest obesity levels in the developed world
A problem, yes, but once again, the sole fault of those who don't control their eating and exercise habits. This does not consider the genetically obese; were only the genetically obese counted, the levels would almost certainly be similar to anywhere else.
God Bless America, because corporations should be allowed to run amok
As opposed to enslaving the public to the government in a babysitter-state condition of total dependency? I'd call that the lesser of two evils.
God Bless America, wasting billions to attack foreign countries
Define "waste".
I still think it was truly idiotic of the Congress to sing God Bless America on the Capitol steps the afternoon of 9/11 (which is what started the "God Bless America" craze and may be responsible for bolstering the morale of the Pseudo-Christian Right). Why, of all songs, did they have to pick that one? They should have sung The Star-Spangled Banner, or maybe America the Beautiful. Singing a song was a good idea; singing that song was a mistake which has had hideous consequences.

Yeah.... two months can seem like "quite some time" to some of us. Especially windows users like the poster.

Fox News advertises Bush and Cheney every chance they get. During the war, when everyone else was being somewhat sombre, perhaps even recognising that people were actually *dying*, Fox had the bad taste to have lots of cool backgrounds showing mighty US military vehicles zooming out of huge fireball explosions.
Read Pynchon.
"He gave Saddam plenty of chances to behave reasonably and comply with the cease fire agreements."
Why was it up to Bush to make this decision? The UN virtually told him *not* to attack Iraq by refusing to authorise it. We (being the other 5.75 billion) didn't ask you to run the world. There is very little logic in saying 'we gave him a chance' - who says the chance was yours to give? Not the UN. If the UN wants to authorise force, it will do so directly.
"the Saddam regime was terrorist, just like the 9/11 attackers were"
Keep going. Soon the word 'terrorist' will be completely meaningless. You are wrong, of course, in the sense that terrorism refers to violence used by a minority to exert political pressure against an established government or majority. State tyranny is typically better described as 'authoritarian', 'totalitarian', 'Republican' etc. (NB: JOKE). By calling Saddam a 'terrorist' in the same way that the 9/11 guys were terrorists you confuse the issue and allow yourself to unconsciously tie together two completely unrelated phenomena. George Orwell would be proud.
The closest link between Al Qaeda and Saddam is that the US funded and actively aided both of them.
Read Pynchon.
