It is weird to me that words are now patened and whatnot.... I get it but I don't. It sounds like when I was a little kid and my siblings would say, "you can't talk like that cause I did first." and usually ends up with the oldest sibling saying, "you can't breath cause I was breathing before you." just ridiculous.
Would it be a bad thing to say, "ha ha" simspons style?

It's true, but I will say that there is something to be said about good software, using the iPhone we see how much software alone can do with just a touch screen and Internet, and cell phone connection! I think should be a focus on software improvement just like there is in hardware improvement and that, I beleive will only happen in Linux, or what Apple takes from the OSS community.
iPhone crashes, software crashes, not much else...

You know I have had my iPhone crash when someoned called, I had iTunes delete all my music, I had Vista crash on my Dell laptop a hundred times! But hardware failure not so much. I now use Ubuntu Linux on my laptop and I will be fundraising for iPhone Linux. I think open source will help me with my problems and I hope it will help other with hardware problems.
No offense taken, I hold that the nation must be capitalistic of its own well being and a government cannot support millions of none tax payers, nor is it fair that law breaking non-citizen be granted citizenship simply because the problem of illegal immigration cannot or will not be dealt with. I am a legal immigrant (from Canada), I recognized that America had better opportunity and a political system that has a better chance of change for good through my involvement than Canada. To allow completely unprotected borders would, in my mind, be the same as allowing anyone into your home regardless of their intent. This would open up problems of free riders and destroy the concept of personal property, all of which are problems that a capitalist would want to combat. The other big issue I have with what people view as capitalism is capitalism for the big guys, in a more true capitalism I think that every person must be a capitalist for him or herself, and that mentality can hold true even if they lend their talents, labor etc "capital" to other such things making communities. I believe that the U.S. capitalist interest are to protect the borders, whereas the illegal immigrant's capitalist motives are take down the borders.
Hehe yeah, I gotta tell you that my generals are absolutely killing me. The worst part is the Liberal brainwashing, I was at a lecture arguing the Southern Border problems and the lecturer referred to the border as the Berlin Wall, when my conservative friend and I tried to get a word in, it was shot down for a girl that gave a discourses on the evils of Capitalism. School, is it becoming a cheap product as well?
Yeah, and do you want to work for an employer like that!? I mean lets say you get hired and then you are walking down the hall and says "Hey that is my generic Styrofoam cup!" and the boss hears...then OMG he is a cup stealer, and then that same boss walks out to his car and sees bird droppings....OMG the birds are after me, I mean a employer has to have some common sense.
Yeah...In my Economic History class, when talking about the Boston Tea Party it says that "American have learned a new and powerful economic tool...the boycott"
Come to think of it now a days, we are so un-disciplined that boycott is not only un-likely....but completely impossible in the majority of minds out there. And if someone is rather strong will or minded, they are still talking to people instead of screens.
I wouldn't think that drawing any attention to it at all would be a good a idea. Like what was said before, any employer with their spit will double check to make sure that it was not you in that blog, just think of all the people with the Last name Smith, if they were worried about name association the Smiths of the world would be in really bad shape, or maybe in really good shape.....probably bad since that is more readily remembered, but still I would not worry, and if they blame you wrongfully you can alway sue! The all American dream!
But in all seriousness, no worries.
It sounds a little sad, I got sick of the clicking myself, I wonder if they will ever get Starcraft or WarcraftII and WarcraftIII data about the strategy's or is that not as important as behavior? And almost more importantly is Starcraft II ever gonna come?
I think that with the gouching that goes on in College textbook markets is worth taking from Wikipedia and if someone does not think it is credible then the professors at the colleges or universities could either debunk it or sanction it. I would be more than happy to work on something like that with my University teachers, I think a lot of big whigs are getting mad cause they are raking in less dough.
I completely agree with you, in the past it was usually the American border that gave us the hard time, but the worst experience in my entire life is brought to you courtesy of the Canadian border, I drove all day and night and got to the border, I was clear to go and my truck stalled and wouldn't start, all I need was a little jump, well they search the entire vehicle and found nothing, questioned me and found nothing, finally the young kid who must have been one of the newest border guards got all kinds of mad and threatened me with fines and jail and so and I had to ask him what he wanted me to say, well after all of it the little punk fined me $975 for "illegally importing the vehicle" and laughed about it with all his buddies behind the desks.
Yes border people are unpleasant, but I don't think the American side would fine for no reason, I do not think that they are money grubbers like socialist Canada, I could be wrong and would like to know if I am. I wrote an appeal and am still working on it, but since that summer in Canada and the border experience I am going to try and become a citizen of the US (instead of just a permanent residence) I think the government here still has a chance.
I was born in Canada and have to deal with the Canadian border about once a year and they are pretty money grubbing, so they might move towards Open Source just to save a buck, but the border guards are a bunch of clowns too, bugging the less incriminating people because they are the easiest to bully and fine, so they might have too much trouble figuring it out. Canada is a great country mind you, just not the border, at the Sweetgrass/Coutts checkpoint.
This is sad, but at least I got my friend to start using Linux, he asks me about the security and I assure him for now that no one is trying to break into Linux Systems, more truthful, no one is trying to break into his laptop, so if you keep away from the porn sites and get rich quick schemes there should be no problem, with almost any OS that you run.
I am just really glad that there are some options as far as Operating Systems go, I am writing a paper about FOSS and how we can use it in education and how much money it will save, but most importantly, how fast technology can advance without being hindered by anti-competitive business practices.
While that is true, I know a good amount of people trying to use older machines because checking e-mail and surfing useful websites and word processing are not taxing programs, yet for some strange reason things have to change, people will pirate Vista and Mac OS before they will simply download and install Linux, which was worth doing when I was much younger and is much easier now that I am older. Another problem is that Windows is in the business of doing everything for you, so much in fact that after using Ubuntu for a couple months I tried vista and it took almost 20 minutes to get to the point where I was in control (that is not counting the time it took to boot up). My friend who calls himself a hacker will jimmy rig windows or Mac OS before using Linux. It is madding and insane! I made a site called cause I wanna move everyone over to Linux, I just never have time for the site so the content is somewhat hap hazard. But I think with all the web servers running a LAMP stack on Linux, people will come around to using it on the desktop, I got it on my laptop and it is great, and I am by no means a power user or a hacker.

Not here, I never saw my crazy (ex) girlfriend coming...
yeah...woot for Firefox and Opera! Everyone go to mozilla's website and buy stuff to support them, or just donate!

Going off what the book was talking about, but yeah it was destruction of property that furthered a revolution.

Then people need to do more, and I think that with Open Source we can bypass things like this.
Wow I live in Utah and it is great to see all the money extracted from me going to waste....Hey I am in IT I could replace a few people.

Yeah I am a big fan of the Twisted Metal games!
I suggested that a web dev company use a CMS and they got mad at me causes I was not suppose to be thinking....

I wanna put ubuntu on it!
