    Another problem is to find people that actually listen the way I want them to. Men tend to offer solutions, and I dont want solutions, I can find them myself, women tend to offer comfort ("this isn't that bad", "time will solve it") and I dont want comfort, it IS bad, or I wouldnt speak of it.
    What I'm looking for in a listener is his interest and his capacity to make me feel less alone. And to feel accepted despite (or even because!) the fact that I currently dont have a solution.


    Oh how very well put. (Seriously)

    Yeah, especially since it was free site.

    So what. They were simply automating what people could and can do anyway. Why anyone would want such an ugly wallpaper is something else.

  5. But do any of them use the Peters projection? on First Google Maps Hack Takedown · · Score: 1

    I think not.

  6. Re:Go Google! on First Google Maps Hack Takedown · · Score: 1, Informative

    Yeah like to pirate bay while you still can - the swedish goverment passed a new law making what they do illegal from July first ;)

  8. Yep, they are doing evil on First Google Maps Hack Takedown · · Score: 0, Troll

    ...but when did they jump the shark - with google groups 2 I suppose.

  9. The wisdom? on Calculator Flaw Forces Recall in Virginia · · Score: 1

    The wisdom is that in reality people use calculators, so there is little point in testing them in things they are not going to use.

  10. Re:Say no? on DVD Decrypter Author Served With Take-Down Order · · Score: 1

    The main reason for a lawsuit in a case like this is to attack the defendents perseverance. While the courts will ultimately uphold him in the long run, in the short term he has a lengthy and very expensive court battle in front of him. Even with recovery of costs at the end of a trial, it will severely damage his means in the short time. Unless he has a healthy savings account, the big guys are going to wear him down financially throughout the case, hoping he will give up or surrender without a fight.

    Yeah that's the way it works in the US, where each side pays their own - but in Europe (most places) the looser has to pay the costs - which prevents big companies from frivolous law suits. And since he calls himself LightningUK - doesn't he reside there?

    Can't say that I really disagree, but I am unsure as to the way to proceed - do you have any suggestions? :)

    Which is another reason I think they do evil when they prevent MSIE from remembering the password on GMail..

  13. Re:Getting it straight on Google Never Forgets · · Score: 1

    Keep in mind Google's motto is: "Do No Evil".

    So is everybody - even if they go to war and blow up buildings - its never evil its always necessary.

  14. Re:Get over it on Google Never Forgets · · Score: 1

    With that said, who is to say other companies don't do the same thing? You honestly think once you delete an email with another service, say, Hotmail, it is instantly evaporated off their servers?

    So why does hotmail pretend to delete your account if you have been inactive for a while? Just to harass you?

    Of course not.

    The world is filled with imoral creeps, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to do something about them.

    Yep, I go out and ask 100 random strangers on the street, a lot of the time i bit 100 of them haven't heard of either.

    That may well change after it opens.

    For $29, this app delivers, per dollar, more fun and utility combined than anything else I've ever purchased.

    Yeah, but surely you have to keep paying. its not just a pay once use forever.

    Errr, no. Serenity might very well be the best thing ever created, but it's not on a small budget.

    According to the studio it is.
    Part of the reason Firefly was axed was that it was extremely un-cheap to produce.


    Not true, it wasn't particularly expensive.

  22. What about misunderestimate? on w00t is 3rd Favorite Non-Dictionary Word · · Score: 1

    I never noticed that theme. As i recalled it, it was always a question of being born with the ablity. I'm not doubting you about the 4-6, but as I remember it that is what they said.
