If you have a 64 bit version of Linux, and flash = no workie, you can;
Install WINE, then install the windows version of Firefox, then install the windows version of Flash. It works perfectly! This is of course only a temporary solution until the final 64 bit version has been perfected.
BUSH IS/WAS a crushing disappointment. He is proof that Republicans, who are "True Believers", will look the other way no matter what their elected party member does. He can screw up as much as he likes as long as he is a Republican. As a registered Independent I am sick of both parties. As an American, I am sick of incompetent fools being elected based upon their connections. Palin appears to be the next Fool that the Republicans are willing to get behind. If the Republicans wanted McCain to win so much, why did they treat him so poorly in the 2000 election? Why did they choose the Shrub instead in 2000, Hmmm?
Some HIV infected people will live a long time. Most HIV infected individuals progress to AIDS within 20 years no matter how much treatment they receive. A risky cure that works might be desired by some patients.
True, but an HIV patient has little to risk, other than a slow painful demise. I'd say that this is promising news and the risks are well worth it, provided that this proves to be a successful treatment via trials.
All Hail the fall of Microsoft and the Beginning of the Linux and OS X/etc... generations. I long for the day when most users use Linux on a PC or a MAC, and the lame Windows dies. Imagine a day when Linux is the main Desktop or Server OS and Wine has been perfected to run your old windows applications. There will be no need to the hassle that is Microsoft and its' products.
I don't see much discussion of what the real implications are of these changes. The requirement to have phone numbers and credit card info used, means that the government would now like a way to get the information on the guys (johns) who are seeing these working ladies. I could understand if this was just about going after the underage prostitutes and the pimps that pimp them out, but it is not. It is about giving the agents who are not good enough to the "War on Terra" something to do. They will now be online busting johns. My advice to anyone seeing online hookers is to,
1) Purchase a disposable phone with CASH. 2) Purchase a laptop and use a public wi-fi to get your hooker info. 3) Check the ladies you are seeing against hooker review sites.
It is only a matter of time before this data mining exercise gets misused as well. Look at what happened to Elliot Spitzer. The same things is bound to happen to another public official sooner or later, now that they are attempting to mine data on phone records.
The manufacturers should spend more time collaborating with the Ubuntu and Mandriva communities. Windows 7 will suck no matter how much effort the manufacturers put into it. Why waste the extra time on a sinking ship?
There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always, do not forget this, Winston, always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face ⦠for ever.

Flying cars owned by private citizens will soon be available as well.....
That page loads so slow. It might be running on one of the relics on display in the museum. The pics are cool.
All posts defending the Redmond Beast always begin with the disclaimer, " Too be fair....".
My God! It's full of Arachnids!!
The faster the windows box, the sooner it will lock up. I hope that super fast box responds quicker to ctrl alt delete! :)
Spammers are like Roaches. You can never quite kill them all off.

Step 1 -> Get the MORONS out of government (This election accomplished that )
:)
I am not sure about what comes next. I am just very happy that step one was accomplished!
BSOD in 4 seconds. Progress.......

Selling a product that exposes 98% of users to potentially serious problems, such as, ID Theft and data loss, is unethical.
$50 dollars for XP is exorbitant. $1 for XP is also exorbitant. The cost to download Linux = $0.

The Murlocks, they can drive a man to commit the most vicious of crimes!
A terrorist can use it to blind their attackers! Outlaw all dirt! Now we know who the real TOOLS are after 8 years of 'W'.
Use Linux or purchase an Apple and your Virus troubles will go away.
Just have the pig farmers produce more shit, of the sort that this article is composed of.

Bald and you can't dance. No Tang for you......
