Yes I did, thank you. (I really should go look at my post history and pay attention.. sorry about that.)

All depends on the treaty conditions signed with said country. Though, to speak of late, if they don't respect the terms of the treaty, we're likely just to go in an occupy their country, but I digress.
It's the reason why we have extridition treaties, so that we can inforce our laws in other countries when the end result affects a US citizen. Is it right? In some cases, yes. Like anything else, there's always a broad range of exceptions.
Well, if Aunt Susie can't figure it out and she can't ask someone to help her, then she doesn't need to do it. I mean, geez. Computers are the nice source where you can do all sorts of damage to yourself financially. I'm all for restricting usage by people who can't figure stuff out on their own.
Christ, should everyone have a car that wants one and drive it around? Note that I said 'should', not 'everyone already has one.. '
I also hope that, when IBM starts making money with Linux, that some moral compass directs them to give something back.
Hmmm... If they're injecting $100 million into the software, I'm hoping they get $100+ million in return for the effort. Bank rolls that size do not come easy.
Personally, I'd love to see better sound/video support. That kinda cash would go a long way to opening up some drivers.
Bloodiest war in history. Who's to blame? Well, does it matter at that point, I ask? Extremists period are just a problem. When beliefs become so hard-core that no amount of explanation or proof will sway them, then they have become a danger to everyone around them.
So there is no objective good and evil? Good and evil are totally byproducts of a society's ideals. They DO exist in our society, therefore they exist for us. (Yes, I'm clumping you in with the rest of society.)
So murdering random people in your apartment building is just as "good" as helping an old lady cross the street? Could be, depending on the planet you come from.
Racism is just as good as tolerance? Same as #2. Course, I always try to use someone's "brightness settings" or as I like to refer to it as the person's "tan", to decide whether they're intelligent or not. It makes perfect sense, and I think we should stick to it. At least until we manage to nuke ourselves out of existance, then I hope the next round of beings decides to be a little smarter. (Cause aliens are ALL green and green is smarter than black or white cause it's an actual single color rather than a variance of light and dark. Same goes for Orientals. Since Sinestro never beat the green lantern, OBVIOUSLY green is smarter than yellow.)
Dictatorship is just as good as Democracy? Hmm.. interesting concept. I suspect they both have their good and bad points.
No wonder so many "progressive" people nowadays have no problem aligning themselves with the anti-women, anti-free-speech, anti-tolerance, islamic fascists. Cool! I was hoping you'd make the rational distinction and link all this back to Islam. BRILLIANT! You do know the best way to beat a facist is to eat a bullet, right? You'd do that for your country if daddy-Bush asked, wouldn't you? Yeeesssssss... Eat the tasty bullet.
You can chalk this one up to careless admins - something I'm sure PostgreSQL is not immune to either.
Nothing is. Postgres folk can cry all they want, and so can MySQL, mSQL, Oracle, Informix, Sybase, Firebird, etc. It makes no difference. If you have no password, you can get into it.
Amazes me sometimes the rabidness of the db crowd. It's a database, folks. It stores data. It's not an AI.
It's a good thing, but remember. It's his WIFE that normally donates to these charities, not him. She's been doing it for years, so at least something fruitful is being done with the money.
Personally I dunno how much an individual could actually spend in a lifetime on his/herself. Have you ever really thought about how to spend a billion dollars? Outside of jaunts into space and $5M watches, not a whole lot. Not much that really makes much difference, at least. Perhaps I'm just not imaginative enough.
I believe it was only Cannonball II that had it, but it's been a while since I've seen them both. I remember them using fire hoses to knock the white off and the cops saying "We've lost the white Lamborghini, but there's a red one with two GREAT looking chicks in it!"
Well, it is if you're running DOS 6.xx + Win3.x or 95. Namely full 32-bit support, native multitasking, better VM; over all, far better tools to work with under Linux than older offerings. Just comes down to what you are wanting to do.
I still use an old P5-133 w/ 80MB just to do general doc writing and such. I've got it working plenty fast with Mandrake 9.
Don't forget also that the studies this year have already stated that people are looking in stores, but they aren't seeing what they want. Maybe what they've been looking for was online?
That's definatly something to look at. I've never written a script-fu piece, but if I could get some speed boosts, preview windows, and such, it'd make a huge difference. I will take you up on the advice.
A good proxy coupled with something like Privoxy works wonders. I use privoxy at the office (believe me, it takes the beating and keeps moving) and I've been very happy with the results. Configuration is pretty easy once you grasp it, but you do have to know regexp's a bit. Drop this in front of the winders boxes, and you can block sites, block domains, crunch cookies, and help keep at least some of the crap out of the machines.
The largest problem desktop-wise that I've seen has been people taking laptops home and then coming back to connect them to the network. But when it's exec's, it's pretty much impossible to stop them from doing it. If you're stuck with IE, I usually suggest stripping the extras, ditching Outlook completely, and begging the site developers to revamp for Firefox. Sometimes it works.
Yup, and when that country has a national disaster, say.. oh I dunno.. a Tsunami, who's the first country that starts having to dole out "emergency funds" to them. I don't like the US going into other countries at all, but it should be the foreign country that just says "No! We have our own police and procedures and we'd thank you to stay the hell away."
I completely agree. I'd also like to see them replicate the functions/filters available on the layers style buttons. One reason I tend to use PS more than GIMP is I can't get proper bordering to work under GIMP (Yes, I know it's under Script-Fu->Decor->Bevel.) Script-fu seems to lack that nice Preview option, which really turns me off when I'm doing serious work.
I always state "replicate, then improve" when developing UI's. Take what works and make it better. Having a few themes/masques for GIMP would help in this respect, but don't forget the functional pieces of PS as well which make it so darn nifty.

Ok, I have no idea where that line comes from.. hint?

Get 'em boyz!!
and

Mod this up, please. Excellent info!
It occurs to me, with like 100+ million sites spidered that they might have never noticed it before? Once pointed out, they did something.
Ok, can you say why it's evil or what's so bad about it?

How about a dog encased in Dolomite, baby!
I, for one, welcome our new giant, spacefaring squirrel overlords.
