Imagine Linux with all the tools which say "you should never have to use the command line." Such a distro would be pretty bad for most of us who currently use Linux because a command-line is fundamentally superior to a GUI for a lot of tasks we use it for. I always have at least three terminal windows open in addition to any GUI apps. "Never have to use the command line" is not the same as "No command line to use if you want to". I run Ubuntu Linux at home. In the past _year_ I have not had an incident where I've _had_ to use the command line. Not one. Including installs and troubleshooting. The wife uses it just fine. And that is version 7.04, almost a year old technology.
Now, I _can_ use the cli if I want to. Even in Ubuntu or any other "never have to use the cli" distro. It's still there. I feel like I've got a tiptronic Porche: auto for the wife but gears for me when I want them.
Too bad you posted AC, this is _still_ modded -1. Someone with points better fix that quick, this is the most insightful comment I've seen since the Muhammed thread.
To call Japan Steel Works a "sword maker" is like referring to Microsoft as "that company that makes Minesweeper". Exactly. That is how I refer to Microsoft. What's wrong with referring to a company by it's distinctive, quality products?
The JSW's containment vessel is a one-piece unit. Containment vessels made from more than one piece can (and are) manufactured all over the world. The advantage of the one-piece unit is that it has no seems, preventing radiation leaks. There are other methods of controlling radiation for the multiple-piece CVs.
Siteblock works like this: Site pisses me off. I go away. There is not a single website on the Internet that I need so badly that I must use it but cannot be bothered to see it's advertising.
Upon researching, I cannot find the hitbox code in the source of the secure part of the Wachovia site. On the front page, yes, but not after I log in. Hwoever, there are other third-party references such as CSS, JS, and image files pulled from akamai.net. I've sent them a letter in the Send Message form, something like this:
I see that there are images and other files pulled from akamai.net in the secure area of the Wachovia website. I am concerned about the potential for misuse by Akamai. I am not an Akamai customer, and Akamai is not an accredited financial institution. Please explain why these images must be served from Akamai, and know that your response will be quoted in my letters to the Securities Investor Protection Corporation and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Thank you.
Humm, and I going to go to jail for that last comment, its hard to tell what's a crime any more... There are no crimes, now that there are no longer any laws.
I found out how much of a dick people can be, even after an entire summer together. They weren't my friends before, and not after. Their characters were friends with my character. No more. I'm glad that the details of my character are all but forgotten to me now.
I understand that friendship entails helping and supporting. But that is not the only type of relationship that entails such. Are you friends with your local tax-collecting body?
When I was 13 I spent one summer, er, not at home. I only got through it by visiting a 'friend' and his buddies and playing D&D every day. 7 days a week. All summer. That's how I ate. That's where I showered. D&D didn't make me friends with those kids, but it made us close and support one another. Well, it helped them support me.

Like every other cloud, duh.
So they are compromising my security to save a few network hops on CSS and JS files?
That's no moon...
Open Source gay pr0n, apparently.

I ddin't even sopt the erorr utnil you poitned it out.
Zippy? They are trading security for zippy? The JS and CSS are static files. What zippy can Akamai provide that the main wachovia server cannot?
That's great. My name isn't Gregg, but I could imagine a Gregg flipping out after seeing that. I'm forwarding that site to Gregg now.

Because Thunderbird is open source. You can't trust a program to be safe, when every hacker can read the source code, can you?
I don't use Adblock. I use Siteblock.

I was a Wachovia customer until tomorrow. Thanks.
Exactly. This is business. Kudos to Walmart for even trying to sell Linux PCs. They realized it was not a viable business decision and moved on.

There is a big difference between being supportive and being friends.

That's why I only painted the letters. Even the numbers I kept.
