No. I'm not making analogies at all. I was replying to the AC who made the foolish comment that all tools should be free. Hammers and screwdrivers are tools. No analogy.
"such as typing 'map 10 Downing Street' to instantly see a Google map of that address"
Why is this new?
I've been doing this for years. In Firefox. Try it yourself.

* Click the 'More' button
* Add a keyword of 'map'
* Type 'map 10 Downing Street' in the address bar.
* Shout for joy at your upgrade to Firefox 4 months ahead of schedule.
go read up on statutory rape. Regardless of whether this particular situation is right or wrong, it's still a crime by today's laws. Which was indeed snowgirl's point. And she's completely correct, while you and the AC above are both boors.
In all but TWO cases (one case being a total hard drive failure where the system continued to run without HD access until a page swap was required
I've got a story that I like to tell about a Linux webserver that had a hard drive failure after running long enough to have the entire web root cached into RAM. We hdparm -Yed it to sleep and unplugged the drive, then let the machine run diskless for a few months until we got around to replacing it.
This hosted some very well known and active open source projects at the time too.
Just *do* something that you find fun enough to keep up. Unless you're really into pushups, they won't last. I play tennis (hard!) for at least an hour a day and I walk or bike to work.
Oh yeah, it'll be a pain to replace the "all firefox" interface with a more familiar linux desktop as you'll have to do the installation over the wire.
Because that's *exactly* what their target market wants to do.
Slashdot Mirror
And even better, there would be an option to just hide anything that contains the words "Frequent Slashdot contributor Bennett Haselton"
I wish Bennett would realize that he's not really the great writer he thinks he is and just shut up already.

Accuracy <---------> left field <--------------------> you.
RTFM.
Throttle your boss instead.
Because Jane Q. Public knows so much more about filesystem design than Ted T'so.

You're an idiot. Filesystem permissions are not a Mozilla feature. Stop talking. Now.
or did someone shit on the keyboard?
No. I'm not making analogies at all. I was replying to the AC who made the foolish comment that all tools should be free. Hammers and screwdrivers are tools. No analogy.
the thinking is that the tools to get work done should be freely available to all,
Because things like hammers and screwdrivers and all that are free.

try it before you wtf dude.
actually, I was just making a dumb pedantic joke about the fact that you used a singular subject with the plural form of "to be."
I personally are in favour of ditching 'leap seconds'.
How many of you are there?
I guess it's better than using apostrophe's for plural word's like so many other people, but wow. I'll bet your editor hates you.

but how does it relate to the pap smear? That's what I want to know.

Also, don't be a lazy ass. Walk up the stairs.
Do you really need someone to tell you this?
When they are obstructing tech support for genuine customers, yes.
I'd have gone to an Apple store and kicked these fucktards in the balls.

Are you kidding? WinFS in one form or another has been promised for nearly two decades now. Wikipedia has a decent writeup: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winfs#Development
This whole debacle has been specifically addressed already. Shut up and go read it before you start spouting: http://pidgin.im/~elb/cgi-bin/pyblosxom.cgi/giving_back.html
