This is why many email clients have a priority field. Rarely used on the whole, yet quite worthwhile.
The problem with that is that it's the sender that determines that priority, and the sender's and recipient's interpretation of that priority may differ greatly. No net gain...you still have to read it to adjudge whether it is or isn't.
Paul also had reservations regarding 'the fragmentation seen in the open source world, such as the number of different Linux distributions and end user support nightmare entailed from that situation.'"
Same here. I don't think linux will really take off til you can count the number of distros on one hand. One point not mentioned is all of the distros dilute the talent pool too much, too.
...it's in his company's interest to have the rest of the market fragmented and redundant.
Theatre? He says that because Novell isn't fragmented and redundant and that's his competition, especially since SuSE Enterprise is undercutting RHEL in server deployments because of Redhat's absurd costs for it. Competition is a wonderful thing, but in the real world the elephant doesn't have anything to worry about from the ant.
The Spychips Threat : Why Christians Should Resist RFID and Computer Tracking
An updated version of the authors' previous Spychips, this book explores the inherent dangers of RFID (which stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is a technology that uses tiny computer chips to track consumer items and consumers) and shows how this powerful new technology actually fits into the schema of many evangelicals' interpretation of biblical prophecy. Compiling massive amounts of research with firsthand knowledge, Spychips explains how RFID works, reveals the history and future of the mater planners' strategies to imbed these trackers on everything (from postage stamps to shoes to people themselves), and ties in these ominous new devices to current Christian thought about the coming New World Order.
Only in the US would there be laws against selling pipes... hell, in Canada there's legal stores that will sell everything you need except the actual marijuana, all legit. Maybe the US's problem is they are insanely backwards and stupid...
...getting "poisoned" by downloading something they shouldn't to begin with? Yeah, right. No lost sleep here. I wouldn't even lose sleep if their hard drives got reformatted in the process. "But wait, that's illegal!" the thieves would cry. "Well, duh...what goes around comes around."
Which is also why nobody adopted this program. Lots of great features, but they didn't fit together in a useful way. The developers threw in every feature they could acquire or develop -- but they never thought through the product as a whole.
And that makes it different from most Linux apps how?
(And let's see how many clueless mods mod this as flamebait or a a troll when it isn't....)
OS X came from NeXTSTEP which Jobs built completely from scratch without any MacOS code.
Yes, OS X is derived from NeXTSTEP. It is also derived from the older (classic) MacOS. To say that it contains no MacOS code shows that you're really not aware of the history. There is an entire very heavily used API (carbon) that utilizes classic MacOS code.
And you're not aware of syntax. It's NeXTstep which was built without any MacOS code, not OS X.
unfair and gives preferential treatment for specific vendor products
Somehow they never seem to object when, say, the Feds sole-source Microsoft products. Big surprise. Let's hope someone throws that back into their faces....
He'd have had the perfect claim if he'd linked to an image on his own server. Now he's worse, because he KNOWS how wrong that kind of linking is AND posts about how the slaughterhouse's pipe is getting hammered. Sounds more like there's more going on here than just the linking of a game. Militant vegan or something?
1) Not all Latin Americans speak Spanish. Some speak Portuguese.
Ahh, I thought only Brazilians did in Central/South America.
2) In order to get a real job here, you have to speak a second language, and English is the obvious choice. Yes, unlike some people in other countries, we actually care to learn a foreign language.
a number of business sites are saying Latin America is the new India for outsourcing. They have similar timezones to U.S., speak English, and are even a relatvely short plane trip away
Huh? Does that mean all of the Spanish-only speakers came here to the US???
...everyone is only a few links away from a terrorist. As the "Kevin Bacon Game" (Six degrees of separation) shows, the world's not as large as we think at times.
If it detects a pirated version of Windows, disable the TCP/IP stack. From then on they don't have to worry about whether or not to supply security updates or not. Plus, they won't be virus/trojan vectors, and they users' data is still there.

Shitbull.
it would be just as illegal to destroy HBO's physical property but no one is suggesting anything of the kind.
copying does not equate to destroying property.
But bits aren't property...isn't that how the argument goes? You all can't have it both ways....

In other words the employee(s) are no different than everyone else? Shocking!

This "not making more land" sloganeering is about as much bullshit as "liberating Iraq". Just stop it. Honestly, you sound like a moron.
Land is finite,
Duh. What do you think "not making any more of it" means? Asshat.
Real estate is one of the more solid investments you can make.
One thing about land...they're not making any more of it.
...let Massport pay for shielding around the lounge to keep the free signal from escaping. This should show what their real intentions are.

No. Less return to the stockholders (not that they get many dividends anyway....)
