Just because it has to do with topics you might not agree with, does not make it uninteresting. Nor does it (really) have anything to do with RMS, it is an opinion piece meant to spur conversation. Seriously, geeks seem to think their opinion matters more than they really do. That is not specifically aimed at you, but what gives someone the right to tell the/. ed's what they should or shouldn't put on their site? News for Nerds? They are nerds, if they are interested in it and it's news (or stuff that matters, but that's a bit more subjective I suppose) then they have done their job.
If you don't want to take part in the conversation, don't. No one is forcing you to post. And it takes little more than a few seconds to look at the headline, groan and roll your eyes, and move on to the next one.
no spammer is going to put "flarkelmarkle" in their subject line just so that one freaking person can get their crap.
Actually, I recently installed a procmail filter called Splam, which uses White/Black/Grey lists. A Few days later, I received a spam message with the password as the title. Obviously someone was desperate enough to do that.
They aren't taking away your right to use their EMail service, it just has to be addressed to the correct RR account instead of to a potential competitor of theirs.

Flight School? Watch out, dude, you might be tagged as a terrorist...
For one, it is not a war against Islam, you tool... (Yes I admit, that's flamebait).
But, just because you think something else is more important is no reason to ignore everything else. That's what gets things like the anti-terrorism bill passed. Get people focused on one thing while screwing around with another.
Or the Slashdot Pirates... "Arrrr, make wild, pointless claims that make no sense.." arrr....
Don't get me wrong, I think the RIAA needs a large appendage inserted from behind, but calling them pirates is pointless, because they are not.
Just my worthless opinion.

Disk Manager was a bit too Limited in the number of buttons you could use. The version I had was limited to 4 banks of 4 buttons I think (or something close to that). I had the same time-frame release of DOpus and you were limited to like 8 banks of like 30 buttons each. Plus in DOpus you could configure the pull-down menus. I never saw that in DiskManager. DOpus WAS, of course 4 880K Disks in distribution, hardly bloated, except that ImageFX was also 4 disks, so it may have been large. But for the very basic version it would fit in 880K. It was a memory hog (by Amiga Standards) but the point was that you run it instead of Workbench, and don't have to run quite as many other apps. --------- Thus Spake Dave Meine Hühner lachen Nicht!

I just don't see it. I've watched the Super Bowl (not to mention regular games) all kinds of places, including a lot of friends' (married and not) houses, and I don't think any of them has asked the female of the house to be a servant. Of course, considering my friends' choices of women, they are usually watching with us:) But my friends could be a minority, who knows. --------- Thus Spake Dave Meine Hühner lachen Nicht!

Have you ever eaten the food they serve on an airplane? If they object to you bringing a poison on board the plane, give them the same treatment... "Get some REAL food."

To much dismay, a bong requires two holes, and as this has none it is diffucult to move air through it. You could, of course cinsider the "bottom" (the space that appears to be a hole) a hole and then drill another at the "top" of the stem, in which case they would be (at least the basic model) very difficult to hold without placing your balance at risk, or even worse, spilling your smouldering "tobacco" all over the place. --------- Thus Spake Dave Meine Hühner lachen Nicht!

Without seeing it it is hard to visualize, and even if you DO see it it might not come to you. after looking at it, follow the side through the entire thing. it starts on the outside, but as you follow it into the bottle, it becomes the inside face as well, ergo there is one side to the entire unit.
