    She's... "Queen". And therefore, people respect her.
    Very few English ppl respect the queen, she is just a tourst attaction.

    You would have to get EVERYONE doing it, else all you do is up the profits for the spammer.

    As getting everyone to install a spam filter is out of the question, this will never happen.

  17. Re:I'll answer... on Gloolabs Readies A Java-Based WiFi Audio Device · · Score: 1

    ? It's not like the code will be ported to anything else, unless that was their goal
    I though it was its find-MP3-on-clients bit which was java based, thus it could find them on you Apple, Linux or Windows box. Which is a good use of java.

    JVM is getting to the point where speed is improving.
    Some ARM chips (and Sparc, and maybe other lowend) chips support byte code (or a subset there-of), so it is the native format for the device.

    The device might also support "plugin", o/c this is a guess, I've only glanced at the site, but the Motorola Java 2 Mobile Editon (phones & stuff) dev kit includes an MP3 player as one of its devices, it would be quite cool to play a game of Tetris or Packman on the LCD screen of you CD player. Pointless but pritty cool.

  18. Re:What? on Off-The-Shelf Online Music Stores · · Score: 1

    There was a plugin for WinAmp by MP3.com which did this, showed you the cover art of the currently playing band, links to download the song/buy the CD, and MP3.coms online radio stations which played this song.
    Plus some other random info (comments & so forth) it was quite cool.

    > It's because CDE is just plain nasty.

    Same here, but I've never met anyone who thinks OpenWin is better (not good, just better) than CDE.

    I'm not hughly keen of KDE or GNOME, but both are better than CDE (and OpenWin) ;)
