Actually, There are about five free, unicode fonts that I know of for Tibetan and Dzongkha. Both Windows and Linux support these fonts, and many traditional texts have been typed in unicode. (OSX has a small problem, from what I've heard).
There are two produced by Chris Fynn
TibetanMachineUnicode from THDL, and Jomolhari. Both UChen fonts.
CTRC produces four fonts (1 UChen and three Ume): CTRC-Uchen, CTRC-Tsumachu, CTRC-Betsu and CTRC-Drutsa
Additionally, Nithartha has made a proprietary unicode complying font called Sambhota.
There are also several legacy font systems which use several font files with prestacked characters and input programs.
Wow. most of the chicks that actually talk to me about a netbook tend to be the "you're my bestest friend who can fix my laptop" type... for the next [insert severity of problem] minutes.
No... Every p2p user (legal content or not), search engine, etc, would require an investigator's license if they were to expect their findings to be permissible in a court of law...
The process for a legal name change starts with identifying oneself under a name other than what you currently hold. It is legal to use an alternate name from the one on your birth certificate, it just isn't your legal given name - It is an alias or a nickname.
At least that is how it appears when I investigate legally changing my name here in Canada. I doubt it would be dissimilar in the USA.
With that in mind, it could be very difficult to prosecute someone for entering the name they wish to be known as. Acting as someone else, existant, for the purposes of misleading... a different story pursuable under fraud.
If all the worm/virus/adware/hijack/root kit etc. writers and those others were to disappear tomorrow, then we'd still be left with all the shoddy programming that was initially left in the programs. These exploits point out the tip of an iceberg which, unchecked, would allow unscrupulous people in power to abuse the users.
imho: I can only ethically assume that company's fee is for a support contract. And their update site is an extentsion of that support contract.
In order for people not subscribed to a support contract to receive updates, they might consider that they might find their updates and fixes outside the zone of the support contract site.
If one is to aquire the media outside of the support contract, then they should use the same means to get the updates to their unsupported software.
Of course the flaw to this, and the product of a closed source license, is the difficulty for fixes to be made by any other than those who provide the support contract.
It is not the responsibility of that company to provide support to those who are not paying them, any more than it is the responsibility of a free community to cripple their products in manners that ensure the safety of the rest of the world.
I find the most effective list I have put myself on was the do not receive list. you simply disconnect your telephone and receive no more pesky telemarketers. same works with netaccess and spam (slightly more effective than procmail)
Dead Tree books. Possibly in smaller volumes, at reasonable prices. I'm getting annoyed at having to shell out $50 for a book every week, for a huge linux bible sized book. I want smaller books in tighter topics. One of the reasons I've always liked the animal covers; they're small, to the topic, and inexpensive.
I'd also like to see more in the way of method books, rather than subject books. ie, something that teaches how to program rather than how to program in a specific language. possibly case books, that show how to get around certain problems. I'd like to see books less revolved around programs, and more to the topic of methods and strategies. It might not require a person to buy a new $50 book every week for every different program, but it will make a better book.

This link http://www.aerifal.cx/~dalias/bodyig/fonts/ should give plenty more examples.

Hrm... not sure if you're trying to point something out, or trying to be funny.
Only two sets are required for Ethernet, not that $499 cables are required for ethernet.
Or maybe take on the US government, for coming up with DARPAnet!
Wasn't that Al Gore?

Is this the aluminium glass that Scotty spoke of?
Sourceforge for funding Cowboy Neal's activities
No. You can be assured that the result was evil. Do you really expect that google knew this would be the result?
The network is the computer.

I hear some people even prefer csh... sadists!
Hrm, neural HID poses a problem. The mind already has a fairly decent firewall setup, adding wiretaps would be poking holes into that.
Perhaps now I could have the window focus actually be on the window I intend to type in. Focus follows mind.
Umm... if you want to encrypt with your own key, simply encypt it with your own key, and send through their transport encrypted...

Of course, traditional wire sniffing requires physical access, whereas VoIP sniffing merely requires virtual access.
Perhaps they don't want to saturate their network with too many users during their trial runs.

I don't think that ESR's article should be read without looking at AC's reply down the page.8 -17-016-20-OP-CY-0055

We need to send an unprepared group of lunatics up there to destroy it :)
give them a nuke, but no detonation counter...
