Hmm, I'm just waiting for some well meaning US citizen to get his own nuke and then use the amendment in court to defend his right to possess such a device;)
Actually, for the windows version of Gimp, you just need to go to http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/stable.html a nd download the appropriate files. No compiling etc required, just run setup.
As for getting a copy of the photoshop setup off Kazaa, etc, well I guess you've never been lucky enough to run into one of the setups thats been repackaged and includes a trojan of some sort in it. Best of luck to you.
Lets see, Filezilla, no configuration needed outside the standard, this is where I'm going, this is my username and password. WinGimp, no configuration outside the basics, much like you'ld do for photoshop. Furthermore Gimp in general can real photoshop PSD files (the only problematic area is text areas, you can't re-edit them, like you can in photoshop. So please, go on, cry me a river.
I've got a Rio Karma, It may or may not have the fancy SRS settings etc, but it has a couple things that the players reviewed don't have including the iPod.
Support for MP3, WMA, Ogg, and FLAC audio files (I don't consider WMA a selling feature to compare against other players since the iPod supports apples format but the Karma doesn't)
Ethernet connectivity. I could leave my Karma at home and access it from work, streaming mp3's over the internet.
Also, the battery is good for up to 15 hours of play (depends on various settings, such as backlighting, etc), almost double the iPod's 8.
You may want to do a little research into undersee volcanic vents. Until a few years ago (less than 15) we thought the areas around them were simply too toxic to support any form of life, especially since the water can be superheated to 500+ degrees fahrenheit. The scientists of the time were proven wrong. There are organisms on this planet that don't need light, there are organisms that don't need oxygen, and there are almost certainly organisms that need neither (I just can't think of any off the top of my head). Don't be so close minded. Given to age of the area it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they found some pretty amazing things they we've thought to be extinct, even if it's just a Coelacanth which we now know isn't extinct.
The metric system is superior, atleast in the case of temperature (C vs F) because Fahrenheit is a scale based upon 0 degrees being the temperature of an equal ice / salt mixture and 212 being the boiling point of water. However, those temperatures fluxtuate based upon your altitude. Celcius however is based upon the freezing and boiling points of pure water at sea level. These values are constant and do not change.
Heh, that's for spyware as congress said on Thursday. However, I'm of the impression that this qualifies as it's spying on my actions while I use the computer, waiting for me to do something specific so that it knows to have an effect. Maybe it doesn't report to home, it's still spying on my actions.

Damn, someone comes up with a piece of software that will snoop into your e-mails, im's and p2p, violating your privacy in an even bigger way than GMail and not a single person even mentions the fact that this program could be hijacked to snoop for things such as credit card numbers, passwords, etc. Atleast with GMail you have a choice whether or not you use the service. The people this software would effect don't exactly get the choose whether or not they participate in it's use.
Considering RBC posted a Net Interest Income of almost 7.2 billion dollars last year, the amount that this deal could cost them should SCO loose is a very small drop in the bucket. It's not like a loss in court to IBM or Red Hat or anyone else would actually cost them more than their initial investment.

from what I heard / read. He didn't sell anything, his company did and they sold a TOTAL of 7 copies to US buyers. The only reason he's being pursued for this is because it's his name on the program credits.
Wanna buy a DVD player that where you can turn macrovision protection off? Up till recently you could buy one in the US. Does this mean everyone selling one of these should be arrested and prosecuted under the DMCA? Hell no, that would be insane.
For those of you saying, he broke the law, he DIDN'T! Unless of course US laws now apply to every country in the world (better go arrest all those pot smokers in Amsterdam). Had he been on US soil when he wrote the program, then the US could go after him with that big club known as the DMCA, however he wasn't. Perhaps he's responsible for spamware, so what, that has nothing to do with this. I could right a program to mailbomb you, but if I get arrested for breaking the macrovision encryption on a CD, there's no linking event, other than the fact that I programmed both.
It's not illegal to make a tool that could theoretically be used in the commital of a crime. If this has changed, then someone better arrest everyone at Smith & Wesson.
Heh, not only is it a Volcanicly active area, there's a fault line running right up next to where the tunnel would go. It would only take one quake in an area that is very geographically unstable already and the tunnel would convert into a giant garlic press.

Giving stupid ideas kewl funky names is only one way of many to make stupid ideas look great to the masses. If it's got a neat name, it must be good. If only more people researched the ideas behind this sort of thing before jumping on the bandwagon, there would be less of this sort of thing happening. Hell, right now my Finacee's brother is currently suspended from school because some kid didn't like his appearance or something and said he was uttering death threats. He's into goth and has a slightly morbid sense of humor. Unfortunately, people like to believe the worst when it's presented to them.
When they came for the homosexuals I said nothing...When they came for the Blacks I said nothing...When they came for the Jews I said nothing...Now they have come for me and there is nolonger anyone left to say anything.
