I have a friends folder, and inside a couple of categories, US, UK, etc. Can;t be done with tags (I could create a friend.UK tag, but that is not really the same).
Just create 3 sets of labels: 'Friends', 'UK', 'US'. Every friend gets the 'Friends' label and either 'UK' or 'US' depending on where they're from. You can now search/view all friends or friends by region.
How is that functionally different to having folders and subfolders?
My IMAP client, while it may not offer Google's exact flavor of search technology, does a perfectly fine job of searching my mail. (Indexing and searching text isn't rocket science.)
So you can do a full body text search of 60,000+ emails in under 1 second using your IMAP client? If so cool, please let us know which program you use because that's amazing performance.
For me being able to search my emails quickly is a killer feature, enough to make me switch away from a thick client. Also labels and conversations are such great features that i honestly couldn't live without them anymore. I assume you've used Gmail for a significant period and are basing your judgement around that experience?
They can't when they might work hard to earn their better care and technology, and others just think they are entitled to it because they are poor.
The point of the GP (and this thread in general) is that *everyone* should be entitled to education and heathcare, regardless of being rich and poor. You've kind of missed the point haven't you.
I don't have a social life, I work very hard to look after myself, save diligently, and as such I am well off financially as compared to my peers. Now I should just give my money to others?
Wow, what an incrediblely "me-me-me" attitude. I take it you're either incredible self-centred or a vigilant anti-socialist. Either way, I'm guessing you're an American.
Well a console controller is infinitely more usable in fighting or driving games. Did you ever try and play Grand Theft Auto III or any of it's sequels on the PC? Wow, I had to use a PC gamepad for that (at least for the driving parts).
If we're strictly talking about FPS, both 360 and PS3 pads have enough buttons to provide all useful FPS functions, plus the addition of analog triggers and joysticks which are unique features not found on PC. But my original point is, the ability to aim more accurately and switch weapons faster will *not* allow an average PC gamer to beat the best console gamers. Don't kid yourself into thinking the control method is that far ahead, or that being good at a FPS is purely about how well you have mastered the control scheme.
Certainly in Shadowrun it's: Good PC gamer > Good Console gamer > Average PC gamer.
Average mouse/keyboard users can out-control excellent console controller users. The very best console users would not be able to hold their own against average or above average PC users, this is why PC users don't tend to use game controllers on their PC any more.
But that's untested - you're basically guessing and making assumptions. The only game that allows PC users and console users to compete is Shadowrun, and the debate on the best control method is not clear cut. Mouse/keyboard gives an advantage to very fine movements (i.e. aiming), but for 99% of a FPS match this doesn't really matter. Have you seen expert Halo players play??
That's bullsh#t. In Windows Group Policy Manager, enable User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Scripts > Run logon scripts synchronously. This tells Windows is disallow any user interactive (i.e. no desktop, no windows explorer, no nothing) after logging in until all login scripts have run. Of course any admin using loginscripts would have this setting enabled.
I used to work in a highschool, trust me we had to lock the Windows computers down well. There are simple work arounds but for a few things, but they're all solvable with a bit of effort - only stupid admins would roll out a locked standard profile without serious testing anyway.
First of all, please don't call me a "junkie", as 1) I've never taken heroin (junk), 2) I'm not addicted to any drug and 3) you're obviously using it purely because it has negative concertations. Cheap way of trying to win an argument.
Now, have you got statistics to show levels of addiction are higher? If not shut up - a massive majority of drugs users don't become addicted, they just try them, enjoy them and the grow out of them. You can't deny that. Also drugs like LSD, phycobilin and MDMA and extremely non-addictive as your body quickly builds up a large tolerance. These 3 at least were made illegal for political reason, NOT because they were cauing health problems.
I used to work for a London drugs team, and one thing I learnt in my time there is that people don't become addicts because drugs are someone evil and courrupting and we're unable to handle them. If we became automatically addicted to things that felt good, everyone would be addicted to sex/food/anything pleasurable.
Fact is there is a story behind every addiction - some people are deeply unhappy, and drugs offer them a way out. Now you can continue your ridiculous little crusade against drugs, but for me I'd rather those billions spend worldwide on "the war on drugs" were spent on social improvement and copuncilling. You know, so we can deal with the root of the problem not merely the symptoms.
I believe in the Inquest it came out that the police were wearing chemical suits during the raid, including thick padded gloves. The officer who fired the shot doesn't remember pulling the trigger - he said he couldn't feel anything due to his heavy anti-terrorism outfit.
So why the drug users use those drugs again and again and again?
Because drugs are fun. Really really fun. I for one have had a great time taking various drugs recreationally with no ill effects.
Eventually my body built up a tolerance to each of them, and i stopped taking them. This happens to 99.99% of drug users; people becoming addicted is not the norm, and really shouldn't be a reason for making them illegal.
in the UK all police officers have to be sprayed in the face with CS gas as part of their basic training, for the exact reason you mention; to make them seriously think before using it on others.
I always assumed the same training procedure happens in the US..you're sure it doesn't?
the sword to victims throat clip was from Red Steel.
When the game eventually came out, it had sword fighting but NOT 1/1 mapping between the sword and the wiimote - instead you made gestures, and then watched at the character performed predefined moves. The submit move was a predefined animation. It was REALLY not an enjoyable experience.
it's not a great game in it's own right (very easy on rails shooter). However, the visual and audios are synced in such a way that it is hypnotic to play - definitely the most fun you can have on the PS2 late at night and/or whilst chemically enhanced.
Also i have the trance vibrator add-on. You're meant to stick it under a cushion and sit on it, so you feel like you;re in the game. Yes it enhances the experience a little, and yes ive used it with a girl i used to date - that was fun!
nothing like wow has been seen before, people have DIED from lack of sleep and food playing it
Well except Everquest. and Ultima Online. And Starcraft. All of which have had people stay up and die from playing them.
WoW is the most popular and accessable MMOG ever, but it's simply an evolved and refined version of what came before. There's nothing revolutionary about it.
have you played Mario Kart DS? Because without a doubt, it's the best version ever released. Also is contains tracks from every previous game, which is cool in a retro kind of way.
Making it almost equivilent to a PS2 means that developing a game for either system is going to cost roughly the same amount. So therefore any developer with half a brain is going to release their game for the PS2 (install base 140m), rather than just the PSP (install base 25m).
This means the PSP has ended up with many bad PS2 ports, and very few exclusives.
Slashdot Mirror
ALL current Dell laptops have this featue - it's called Dell Media Direct. You can run Powerpoint presentations in there too.
these laptops are about portabilty and high battery life. Something you can chuck in your bag then carry around and use all day.
For that previously you would have had to buy a £1000+ Sony VIAO. Why do you need a huge 17" laptop if you just want to suft the web?!
Didn't myth busters disprove this? They found it was impossible to ignite a fuel tank for a car using any type of bullet, including tracers.
you can guarantee they'll never be any viri or malware for Linux at any time in the future? What, are you some kind of clairvoyant??
Utterly ridiculous - just because Ubuntu is more secure than Windows, doesn't mean it's 100% free of exploits.
even the Abstract is completely indecipherable.

2 million marching in a country with a population of 60 million is a significant percentage. Hardly a "small minority"!

what's the 32 player PSN download game? I live in Europe, so we're a bit behind on PSN content.
have you played Mario Kart DS? Because without a doubt, it's the best version ever released. Also is contains tracks from every previous game, which is cool in a retro kind of way.
problem with the PSP is that it's *too* powerful.
Making it almost equivilent to a PS2 means that developing a game for either system is going to cost roughly the same amount. So therefore any developer with half a brain is going to release their game for the PS2 (install base 140m), rather than just the PSP (install base 25m).
This means the PSP has ended up with many bad PS2 ports, and very few exclusives.
where's Rez???
Thats the game i bought a PS2 to play!! I freaking love it - and so does my girlfriend, once we plug in the "trance vibrator" USB add-on.
dammit, why, WHY!
huh? Buffy has superhuman strength and reactions, because she's the slayer. Surely anyone who's ever watched the show knows that?
Also Monica's grandmother owns the loft Monica/Rachel live in, hence why they pay so little rent. Okay I'm rather asahmed I know that..
