If you really have to ask this question I feel it is already too late for you.
But, just so you will know, one very good reason is in case the same asshole who goes by the screen name of "Mr. Bean" asks your child if he can have his address so they can meet and discuss baseball cards.
Good point. That is why this is a lot better than watermarking through a predefined number burned into the camera. If I buy one and create the watermark, no will will really know who that watermark belongs to until I file a breach of copyright lawsuit.
Ah, the simpler times when standing around playing a Coleco handheld football game still brought excitment! I remember that I got jealous when my friend got one that had the "K/P" or Kick / Pass option.
I also remeber going over to my friends house and playing Miner 2049 on his Commodore 64. He also had Pickaxe Pete, a Loadrunner knockoff.
Yeah, because nobody was getting killed By Saddam! Your problem is that you are too far removed from the deaths that brought you the freedom you take advantage of everyday.
What happens to the plants once all of the pollenators are gone? Also, a lot of seeds require special conditions to be viable (i.e. passing through the digestive track of animals).
Wait, I don't understand this, dinosaurs turned into birds?
How come there were dinosaurs that could fly? Did they evolve into birds, and if so, then yes most did go away. If not, then did they "learn" to fly again?
I would not buy one because it is a Chinese company. I don't care that things are made in China, I would rather it be by an American company.
Here are my two rules...
1. Buy American if possible.
2. Buy non-union if possible.
Now, If an American company builds something in China, most of the money still comes to America (otherwise there is no reason to build it in China)*. I also don't agree with unions, so I try not to support them.
*This is also why I don't like to pay illegal aliens to do work for me. Not that I don't like them, but most of their money goes to support another country.
His right?
So If I stop on the sidewalk (public land) in front of your house and start yelling, with or without a PA, that is my right? No matter how much it bothers you and anyone else, you will just sit there and say "Oh gosh, look at that guy excerising his rights! Good for him!"
I really doubt that. Also, I can come to your place of work and just start screaming questions at people and there is nothing anyone can do, because it is my right?
This to the family of the man that was choked to death by police when resisting arrest. They could not taser him, so they killed him.
I bet the next time someone tells this asshole they are going to taser him he will listen.
As opposed to the 100 million dead in USSR, China, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc.
Have fun with that on your's.
Actually, going by your math, I guess that would be 1.2 billion.
Go watch video's of Kent State in the early 70's. This guy got off very easy.
The cop's were only following procedures. See it is the liberal fucks like this asshole that take the choice out of the hands of the police. So no matter if this guy is 5'2 and 110lbs or 6'6 and 350 it is the same procedure.
I don't have enough faith to believe that a big cosmic fart produced life. For those who think the big bang THEORY is fact have a lot to explain.
First, there was a great cosmic event that created the universe out of nothing...?
Then along comes a clap of thunder and a bolt of lighting and POOF! there is life (from nothing again)...?
That simple one celled being morphed into all living creatures past and present!
And you want to make fun of me for having faith in God? Go ahead. The only difference is that I know I have faith. You have faith too. You have faith that all of the science that has been done to date is correct, because you don't understand all of it.
OK, so I can pay someone, who had already copied a movie before they talked to me, for a copy of a movie, right? I am getting the movie leagally, by purchasing it.
I have read many of the replies and one thing I have not seen anyone pick up on is that your going to be in a dual role. I found myself in that exact situation 2 months ago. It is not easy. Putting the management BS aside, and trust me there is way too much of that, 2 roles will kill you.
Here is my average day now.
6:00-700 AM - log in from home to check up on everything from last night (global company). Answer questions from the tech's and other managers.
8:00 AMGo into the office and make sure everyone remembers to do the tasks assigned to them.
8:00 AM-12:00 PM - Meetings (all damn day long)
12:00-1:30 PM - Listen to lies on why people arn't getting their work done.
1:30 - Sneak in a little lunch, if possible
2:00-5:00 PM - Meetings
5:30-6:00 - Start to work on my own work.
7:30 PM- Call my wife to let her know I am on my way home.
8:30 PM - Leave for home.
I told them I would only do this for so long. Many times it is much better to have a person as a manger, and a tech as a tech. I will promise one thing, you will have a better sense of what a good manager can do. They are like the computer support, if they do their job good, you never hear from them and begin to think it is a very easy job and one that is not really needed.
I don't understand this! You are still supporting the system you hate. You are still putting money in the hands of the RIAA. How? Funny you should ask. People are more likely to go buy a CD to try it out if they know they can sell it later to recoup so of the lose. Stop buying used CD's and that market will fail and then people will be stuck with what they have or have to give it away.
Plus, this is somewhat like the MS outlook of "Yes, it is pirated, but it is still ours and not our competitors".

Yeah, we all know it was an unexplainable cosmic event that turned nothing to everything, including life! How is that not clear?
WOW, a long list of email addresses for people under 18. Sounds like a great list for target marketing.

what about stateful inspection?

You need to stop drinking whatever it is you are drinking and find out why "Chemical Ali" has that nickname.
I actually had one windows admin ask me if TCP/IP would work on a Linux box. They seemed to think it was a MS only networking option.
I don't think this was an "open" venue. He was asked to leave and did not.
His right?

Didn't he know Kerry is a Democrat? Everyone knows you're only allow to disrupt Repulicians and get cheered/praised. What a fool!
The difference here is that Microsoft won't kill you if you try to stop them from spying on you.
I guess liberals only had problems telling the difference between a deer and a pheasant?

The KKK thing IS true... Watch "Behind the Music" on VH1. Now, that guy working for the Black Crows, that is questionable.
