I downloaded this yesterday. What does it do apart from use up spammers bandwidth? It keeps essentialy the same non changing image up on the screen. Er no thanks. My shiny new 19" TFT isn't going anywhere near that.
I know CRTs can now cope with static images, but TFTs can't.
"Richard Perkins, regional director for UK and Ireland at the company, told vnunet.com that two companies had signed up for licences in the past quarter, but would not give further details."
Because they know that confidence in any company that bought these sea shells would go through the floor. If they're *that* dumb, how good is their product/service?
I was just having a laff. Nothing in the UK would ever be 'privatized'. It would be privatised....oh and for your future ref - there is no such thing as 'petty' on slashdot.
And the other 90% of the world are increasing their resource consumption just as fast as they can raise their standard of living to do so. So we'd need nearly a ten-to-one efficiency improvement just to keep from losing ground. And that's not taking population increase into account, either.
How come the rest of the G8 only use a propeortial amount of resourcese then? But I completely agree that SUVs have their place. To own one, you should be able to see your neighbors house.
Actually there are (at least) two others. But I'm sure the eco-fascists (not to be confused with actual environmental scientists) would be opposed to them as well.
One is space solar power.
...
The other is to seed the South Pacific with a bit of iron compounds so the algae bloom will suck down megatons of CO2.
... What about by being more efficient/less wasteful?
Bush's rhetoric is all very well, but 10% of the planets population using 25% of the resources just simply isn't on. SUVs and the I'm alright Jack attitude is going to choke our children.
Before you start flaming, I am not an eco-weenie. Rather an oil company tech with a degree in chemistry.
Because the US does not use their military might to colonize and subjugate other countries.
You don't need a visa to travel to Iraq if you have a US passport, because Iraq is technically currently American soil. The US went against the UN and popular world opinion (remeber 2 million people on London's streets? - same in other major city around the world including NYC and SF).
Your undemocratically elected president has taken it upon himself to conquer a country.

No! 303 can only be Acid House.
I'm modding at the moment, and wish you could get a +6.
SCO Away...
Ah - but don't you 'cast' to the target?
As in 'broadcast' - you're casting to the broad field.
Podcasting - casting to iPods.

"Chandler is OSAF's personal information manager which will offer e-mail, calendaring, address and task management."
Could it be any more like Outlook?
People aren't *complete* idiots. Anyone who doesn't understand 'user' probably doesn't understand any of the concepts involved.
It's a self-policing system.

Some people say that there is no such thing as 'virii'.

Here goes. Er - you dull witted git.
I know how to use auto power off. Think about it. Just think. 3 seconds.
Got it yet? Got it why something that's billed as a screen saver shouldn't display a static image?
Right.. Good.
It's more like a 'screendestroyer'

Yes, but I have a lower slashdot ID. Ergo I win.

I'll give you British Rail.
No problem at all.. I commute from Brighton to the City every day. Horrid.
But BT? I would say that was a fairly succesful privatisation non?
*tsk*

I'VE just had to wipe YOUR spit of MY screen.

Brave men an women out there need help and they get these guys.
For those of you who weren't into early 90's hair metal, that was '18 and Life' by Skid Row.
I played the guitar solo from that for my GCSE Music exam. How rock and roll.

You mean a bloated, but addmittedly powerful chip is going to be call a Prescott?
Quick - someone ring Private Eye!
(for those of you who don't keep up with British politics, John Prescott is His Royal Tonyness' #2).
"So you're telling me I shouldn't answer the phone by saying:

That could be construed as impolite, yes.

Ho hum.
