Paranoia runs deep
Into your life, it will creep
It starts when your always afraid
Step outta line, the men come and take you away
~ Steven Stills and Buffalo Springfield, 1967
There are valid reasons for many of these design choices. They also have unintended sde effects - some of which are surely deemed as features by "Central Services."
God..Why can't - after 2000, XP and 3 years in development - the HORRID ancient bitmap artwork for "Control Panel" icon, etc. go away!
This is exactly the lack of focus on essential detail that will make LH a sad, second-level retread of W2K for users. Yeah, it's got an improved driver and development model. Yeah, web services are integrated throughout. It drives like a tank.
UI is artless and amature. Better work is seen on DeviantArt.com
Then he can make crap pictures like Scorsese did, when he followed "Taxi Driver" with the appalling 'New York, New York". Scorsese recovered, because he wasn't a hack. Lucas won't - 'cos he is.
P.S.: What Scorsese movie was spun-off as a sitcom?
I repalced Astaro with m0n0wall, and have most of the features I used - minus some of the application proxies. I have a tor installation on the box - easy to set-up with privoxy, after i added Perl to the m0n0 mix (big as the rest of the distribution!)
Thread 'aint finished, according to Godwin. It just is no longer capable of supporting a meaningful dialogue.
Of course, Godwin assumes the belief of Nazism as a historical and socio-political singularity, to which no reasonable comparison is ever appropriate. This attitude allows latter-day neo-fascism to flourish unimpeeded. All parallels drawn with fascist and Nazi examples are derisable as hyperbole and hate-mongering.
GannonGuckert accessed the White House approximately 200 times over a twenty-two month period, simply using a day pass. That's twice a week for a two year period. This is fishy as hell. And ON A DAY PASS. If that's isn't regular access, what is?
The real question is WHY was he so freely there and WHO was behind this??
Secret Service Gave "Jeff Gannon" Unparalled Access to White House.
No two ways around it: "Jeff Gannon" is someone's (or multiple persons') Lewinsky.
Nothing else makes sense. The Secret Service cannot be that lax. He was being let in on days when there were no press briefings held and allowed to leave through multiple exits and without signing out (many long, sweaty romps, no doubt).
I'm cranking up the e-Rolodex and will fire this one off to hundreds of thousands, including every newspaper columnist and radio wag extant.
I bet this sick @!#$ is/was stretching Queen George, Rove, Scott McClellan and Ken Mehlman (and mebbe Andrew Card, who reportedly swings that way). No other story is hotter and more damaging to the Bush Admin than "Jeff Gannon."
Many times he didn't sign in or out.
Perhaps more notable than the frequency of his attendance, however, is several distinct anomalies about his visits.
Guckert made more than three dozen excursions to the White House when there were no scheduled briefings. On many of these days, the Press Office held press gaggles aboard Air Force One - which raises questions about what Guckert was doing at the White House.
On at least fourteen occasions, Secret Service records show either the entry or exit time missing. Generally, the existing entry or exit times correlate with press conferences; on most of these days, the records show that Guckert checked in but was never processed out.
In March, 2003, Guckert left the White House twice on days he had never checked in with the Secret Service. Over the next 22 months, Guckert failed to check out with the Service on thirteen days. On several of these visits, Guckert either entered or exited by a different entry/exit point than his usual one. On one of these days, no briefing was held.
"I'd be worried if I was the White House and I knew that a reporter with a day pass never left," one White House reporter told RAW STORY. "I'd wonder, where is he hiding? It seems like a security risk."

Sorry, Smitty!
Yes.

But privoxy still scrubs identifying information other than the route!
Easy to install and configure.
Pretty well documented, too.

There are some add-ons, too.
I am firewalling MS away from everything on my home network - except for an isolated subnet which can initiate connections for SUS/WUS.
*.google.* is already passed through Privoxy by a firewall rule, and passed of to TOR for a route.
It was his best film, untill "Bullit"!
I like your "carbon-based, bipedal lifeform" observation. Amusing in its inclusiveness. (no apostrophe!)
Right ON topic for the thread, if you regard the Subject line as indicidatve of the content that should follow!
YEAH! METATHREAD!
"Whore" is such a dirty word to use in describing someone who doesn't hold a White House day-pass.
