I've heard this before, and I'm really not sure i agree. The few times I've watched it, they take things out of context like crazy. The last time I watched it, was when they we're "interviewing" some author of a boot titled like "people who are wrecking america". They (meaning I guess, Jon) did not give him a chance to respond to any of their statements, they cut him off and sent him home basically. Bill O'Reilly (sp?) does better than that even.
It's because for years now, we the consumers have been so abused with web publishers pushing ads on us that we immediately jump to defend ourselves against them, whether it's justified or not.
I'm annoyed by the ads, as probably most people. And i wish that companies would realize that google ads are probably the best, because i have more than once intentionally clicked them. Only time i ever clicked a banner ad was when i thought it was so stupid i had to see it. But don't say you're abused. Jiminy Cricket.
I have a laptop keyboard and a normal keyboard and i use the normal one. It's easier to type on, I don't accidentally hit the wrong keys as much. Plus the laptop is harder to play games on, i think because there's more space between keys you can touch type better or something.
It's a preference of course, but I think you're in the minority.
As a person who lives in Washington State, shut up:P. More than half the time when I say Washington to someone not from the Northwest they think Washington DC.
you missed my point. To me it _is_ the honor system because I have no clue if they don't follow the GPL. ANd even if I knew they didn't chances are I wouldn't sue.
A developer earning 50-60k up here is considered middle-upper class. He can afford a house on his own, along with all the latest tech toys. Try that in Redmond... yeah right!
OK i did, i made just over 60k (63k) for 2 years, lived in an middle-upper class lifestyle. I certainly could have gotten a house, many of my peers (who i'm assuming didn't make much more/less than me, did). I put over 10k into a 401k for 1 year, and I was not living cheap, if I wanted something i got it (for most anything cheaper than say a new car). While i'm not living in Redmond, I am living in Kirkland, which is right next door. I suspect Redmond would actually be cheaper than where i'm living now. Oh and I got dental/medical/vision coverage (thansk to my employer). Granted I didn't(don't) have a family and only am supporting my self, but even with a family i'm sure I could have managed to live pretty much the same life style, just without saving as much.
If you have no intention of suing people over possible misuse of your code, then use an unrestricted license.
Reallly? i mean if I release some code under the GPL, I would probably not sue someone over it. But does that mean that I want people to ignore the license i gave it? no I wouldn't. I guess it's similar to saying someone is on the 'honor' system.
yeah my thoughts echo much of the other comments i've seen. i was born in 81 and when i was in 2nd grade (until i dunno when) i would get up early to watch Mr. Wizard's World.
considering the rating of 6*10^23 which i think is close to that chemistry number of molecules that make up a mole or something stupid like that. I forget:P, although i thought the common approximation was 6.22*10^23

Is this some kind of reverse-reverse psychology on the mods or something? I guess it's sort of working, atm you have a +2 insightful. Nice tactic instead of the usual, "I know I'll be modded down" bs.
i dunno if your 'sam' tittle was a joke, but sam is a HP-UX's admin utility. You can use it via command line or X interface even:P. We had to tell people to use it to switch their max threads because it's like 64 or something, by default, which was not quite enough.
so a quick glance shows his voting and maybe I'm missing something.
For Prohibiting Internet Gambling For Banning some computer generate porn For net surveillance without court orders For nationalized ID card and linking databases For investigating Grand Theft Auto
Now I'm not sure of the details of 2 & 3, so I might change my mind about those being a negative thing. Anti tech probably wasn't the right wording on my part.
I remember reading something about his voting record on 'tech' stuff, and was very un impressed. In fact I liked most everyone's voting record more than his.
Just about everything has it's pros and it's cons. And while there would be some pros to millions of people dying... I cannot fathom how you would think that would be over all a good thing. Millions of people dying and watching their families and friends dying? what the fuck is wrong with you?

yes, anything legal/political and they definitely do. And use misleading headlines and summaries.

offtopic but isn't that statement ironic when obi Wan says it? isn't by saying that, he, himself using an absolute statement? :P

here's a scenario:
if i want an app to run without installing other dependencies, how do I do this then, with out statically linking?
yeah my thoughts echo much of the other comments i've seen. i was born in 81 and when i was in 2nd grade (until i dunno when) i would get up early to watch Mr. Wizard's World.

RIP Mr. Wizard
imagine what *you* could get done
Play lots of video games?

I've never played wow.. but.. let's look at your eq
Lofty gauntlets of the bear, ok
Heavy mithril boots, sure
Carrot on a stick, WTF?
well that makes sense. After looking at it again.. i didn't really see where they said what the marks were for, so that may explain it.
Thanks.
So here's the article I was talking about the AC linked it below http://news.com.com/2009-1040-6131719.html?tag=to% 20pnav
