Most Lipton tea is used for iced tea, or at least in the south that is the case. Also in the south iced tea contains so much sugar you can't taste the tea anyway, so why use good stuff? (Born and raised in the south and still twinge whenever anyone orders iced tea and twitch when they order sweetened iced tea by saying they want "tea". Iced tea is an abonomation; overly sweetened tea at any temperature is an abonomation.)
Stories of this sort have always been allowed on Slashdot. However most./ers don't have the creativity or imiganition to post them so we don't see them here very often. I'm sure with continued heckling like yours the actual thoughtfull stories (instead of, here's a link, here's my kneejerk reaction) will continue to move over to k5 where we don't have as much problem with people unable to think without a link.
My primary groups in consideration are homosexuals who live in less than open-minded communities, members of non-christian religions And people living under somewhat restrictive governments(i.e. China). In any of these cases being "outed" could lead to loss of job and could lead to the local rednecks getting a shotgun in the first two cases or dissapearing in the night for the third. No matter what the "community standards" are a community shouldn't have the right to dictate somebody's religion, political standing, or sexual orientation. There are some things that the community just needs to get over.
I regaurd the constant complaints about rape to be a mental rape in itself! Really ladies, live in a decent neighborhood that doesn't have hoodlems on every corner, don't let anyone know where you live unless they show you two forms of ID and just stop walking alone at night.
Ok, so its not a perfect anology, but both are still blaming the victum. Some of the advice in both is still good to avoid the negitive outcome (rape/spam) but both shouln't be neccicary. Oh, and so some AC can't complain: I'm not saying rape is in any way comparable to spam, I recognize that rape is much more serrious and it is not my intent to equate the two.
Um, what about the people who use the internet anonymously as a form of political expression because they're afraid of retribution if it is known what they're saying? What about the people who want to express things about themselves that, while perfectly legal and healthy, are not in tune with their community's standards and if they were discussing openly could lead to loss of job or even a lynch mob? I think your cure is worse than the disease, although I agree it would cure it.
Ok, I'm going to "express" myself by playing trumpet (no I don't know how the to play according to the official way, I make my own way which I still think sounds good). Oh, and did I mention I was going to express myself outside your bedroom window. Oh, and if you move, I'm moving too and am going to continue "expressing" my self. Still think anything is ok, regaurdless of the effect it has on other people's productivity and happyness, so long is it can be considered, however loosly, expressing one'self?
Hrmm Am I misinformed or just out of date? I was under the impression that Windows 9x had no seperation between user and administrative modes. As my origional message indicates, XP may or may not be different, but I have no experience with it to base my judgements on. If I havn't bothered learning about newer Windows versions, is my information otherwise correct? Or did W9x also have some kernel-level admin mode that the user never saw?
What design CAN do is try to organize the system so that an overflow in one area will not neccicarly lead to a compromize in another. Windows's design is terrible in this regaurd (I have no XP experience this may have changed.) Linux's true multiuser enviroment helps, as it is difficult for an overflow in one userspace daemon to interfere with another user's (like the user called "root") files. The HURD is supposed to be even better as its kernel processes are completly seperate from each other, but sadly I have no direct experience with this either. Note, however that a system that is disigned in a secure manner if poorly coded may be more secure than a insecurly designed but better coded system.
Punch cards are the way to go. If they are created out of high quality low-acid archival quality paper, they should last hundreds of years. They are highly resistant to EMP and can handle fairly extreme temperatures without data loss. So if you truly care about your data, throw away (or give to me) your old CD-R/CD-RW drive and get a good solid card-punch.
Paper tape is also a viable alternitive, however due to the need for flexibility in rolling the tape, it cannot be manufactured at the same strength as the rigid punch cards. Furthermore if absoultly neccicary for extreme reliability punch cards can be fasioned out of steel or other metals creating a computer media with a shelf life of thousands of years without data loss.

Short Answer: It's like IRC (or any other chat system), you get on sometimes just to see who else is on.
Longer explination: On some frequencies (channels) you are looking for a friend who is there often, on other frequencies you simple wait and talk to whoever showes up. It could be your next door neighbor or somebody in Japan. You can even talk to people in areas that don't have internet (yes they exist). You can use short-range radio frequencies to find somebody local when you're from out of town and are wanting directions or road conditions. Oh, you can also have fun with radio waves just for the fun of it. Doing things like bouncing your signal off the moon with a 2,000 Watt microwave transmitter is always fun. Oh, did I mention there are HAM radio modems that allow you to access BBS's (it is possible to set up an internet linkup, but it would be slow and insecure). Sometimes we do "fox hunts" which is where we all try to zero in on a signal, while this is part of emergency training it is also quite fun. So if you want to talk to researchers in Antartica, or families in Iraq, or the guy on the other side of town, HAM radio can help. (Oh, and there's no monthly fee, you buy a radio, (as low as $99.00 or so) and get a 10 year liscense ($15.00) and you can go! (Additional liscenses and better radios may be neccicary to contact some distant areas, but with IRLP (internet radio linking project) you can contact the space shuttle (if it were still flying) or Antartica or most first world cuntries with the above mentioned setup)
Be careful, what happens if it works? You'd pass out every time you got "excited" due to a loss of bloodflow to the brain. (That and that would be doubleplussunfun to trip over.)
In fact they started before Linux was started. This replacement contains no code in common with the Linux kernel and thus cannot have any of the code that was entered illegaly into the Linux kernel. So ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you linux-free linux!
Now I wait for Stallman to put a price on my head for not only calling the Hurd Linux, but also for not calling it GNU/Hurd and GNU/Linux.:)
Ok, here's what you do... Rent the movie War Games. Attach an audio cable from your VCR or DVD player to your computer. Record a short soundbite of the computer saying "WOULD YOU LIKE TO...". (Alternatly, find said soundclip online). Open a multimedia and/or audio player. Press Play. Hope this helps,
The transmission was a '53 And the motor turned out to be a '73 And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone.
So we drilled it out so that it would fit And with a little bit of help with an A-daptor kit We had that engine runnin' just like a song Now the headlight' was another sight We had two on the left and one on the right But when we pulled out the switch all three of 'em come on.
The back end looked kinda funny too But we put it together and when we got thru Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin About that time my wife walked out And I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin."
So we drove up town just to get the tags And I headed her right on down main drag I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around But up there at the court house they didn't laugh 'Cause to type it up it took the whole staff And when they got through the title weighed sixty pounds
What woman? I'm not sure what you're talking about, but for murder there have been either an intention to kill, or at the very least, a willfull involvement in an action that is known have a very high chance of leading to another's death. Do either of these situations qualify? Was it a willfull act? I don't think so. I'm not sure since I'm not completly sure which "this women"(sic) you're talking about.
I notice several posters talking about how to aquire assets from the company in a property-seisure and/or salvage leagal mindset. The problem is that you don't OWN copyrights. You have the right to copy the material granted by law and, to my knowledge, you cannot be forcced to give this up. (Although you can agree to, which is technicly what happens in works for hire.) I don't think even creditors have a right to copy copywritten materials unless they and the company agree to sell the copyritten material to the creditors for part of the debt.

Or could it be that they lost one contact lens? Hmmm.
Das tut mir Leid.
I am not a lawyer, am I completly off base here?
Then sue the thousands of people who laughed at you for emotional damage.
