Proton torpedo, actually, and at least one of the designers pointed out the weakness and got into big trouble as a result. Read the book Death Star before you start pontificating.
There are people who can help (psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors, doctors), but the damage does not heal. Believe me, I know from personal experience.
All you can do is learn to live with that damage. Hopefully before you destroy yourself/anyone else.
For a start - how the hell do the WIPO think they're going to influence what is broadcast on British transmitters? Two fingers and goodbye will be OFCOM's response.
Wal-Mart recently took over ASDA, a British supermarket, and the quality of the grub has gone right down. They sell the worst lamb in the entire civilized world.
The case would be heard in a British court (probably the High Court for an offence of that magnitude), and the RIAA could not claim the US law as a defence. The person who committed the act would probably be extradited to Britain to face trial under the terms of the extradition treaty.
You can certainly log on to Mac OS X without the GUI - just login as ">console". You will then have to type in your short username and password at the text prompt.
And if it wasn't for the madness of a Monarch and the incompetence of a Minister combined with some fairly seedy political opportunists, you'd be singing God Save The Queen and liking it.
However, they can't: they don't actually own all the code on that BeOS CD, and it would cost a reasonably large amount to divest all the non-BeOS code from the code that they could legally open-source. Besides, doesn't Sony own it all now anyway?
After all, it has been done before, and even by AMD (K6
But I reckon AMD will lose far more in goodwill than they will gain in sales for this. Also, to use the stated example, what difference does a percieved 200Mhz performance difference make anyway with the applications most people actually use?
realize how bad their whining sounds to those of us who believe that smoking (be it cigarettes, cigars, or pipes) is not a crime and tolerance is always better than repression.
Remember the Wiccan Rede - "If it harm no one, do what thou wilt*"
*Note I said harm, not irritate - if things can be criminalized because they irritate other people, how come mobile phones, N'Sync, William Hague, or Windows ME are still permitted to exist?
Smokers pay for everything they recieve (and much more) through penal tobacco taxation. About 80% of the cost of a packet of cigarettes in the UK goes in tax. Smokers pay for a third of the NHS through tobacco taxes, for example.
As for the "Where do we put the washrooms" argument, learn a little tolerance why don't you?
If you choose to go to a place (restaurant, pub etc.) where smoking is permitted, then you will breathe in miniscule quantities of second hand smoke. If you don't like that, don't go where smoking is permitted. It's really as simple as that.
With Linux/BSD/BeOS/MacOS/whateverOS, you do at least get a proper installable CD instead of a hard disk image and a licence number- I would imagine that this would be a factor in people deciding which OS to buy on their shiny new machines.

I bought a Samsung 1080 for £9.99 at Tescos recently, SIM unlocked.
More or less.

Slocombe, old boy.
Mhz do not always = performance!
I would have thought that night-vision equipment and kicking perpetrators out of cinemas would work.
This bloody silly plan will come to nothing.

Good heavens, yes!

That works without a modchip...

Catroaster.
On the other hand, two screens also require much more desk space - the LCD doesn't take up any more space/power.

No, no, the punishment of the bastinado is the only thing for spammers!
Yes, if BeOS could open-source it...

A school's authority extends to the gates and no further. And the fine will make school boards think twice in future before violating free speech.

Virgin won't be charging people who don't return their Webplayers, so anyone who wants to keep theirs can. Sounds good to me.

And this is bad how, exactly?
I still remember ...
AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
The only instruction worth using in Z80 machine code on the ZX81 was C9 (EXIT).
Anyone else here ever use the HEXLD program (Ah.. THERE was a MAN's text editor)
I remember the cost difference to get an assembled model was about £10 (UK).
