Sure, I wasn't trying to suggest computers break down--far from it! But the reason you normally don't see old computers isn't because they've broken down; rather, their specs are inadequate for new software.
LibreOffice isn't really ready for production use, it randomly freezes up for me when trying to save documents sometimes, as well as freezing sometimes when trying to export PDFs as well (no clue why). I wouldn't recommend using it, yet.
Making flawed analogies does not help your argument. If you want to claim that everyone who ever voted for a war you disagreed with doesn't have the moral authority to criticize human rights abuse, by all means, go ahead. In fact, I'd go so far as to say you can apply that to anyone who once agreed with any war and no longer does (unless you honestly believe that every politician/person who voted for a war at one time can never change their views).
Then you are pretty much an idiot. You can find a reason for anyone not to have the moral authority to criticize human rights abuses if you tried. WHAT THEN?
It is pretty obvious this isn't a request for someone to be killed; you'd have to be literally retarded to take it that way.
But, I digress, the impetus for his comment was Yasmin Alibhai-Brown said that politicians have no moral authority to criticize human rights abuses if they voted for the war in Iraq (conversely, she directly says UK politicians who didn't vote for the war in Iraq can criticize human rights abuses).
In other words, she spouted total nonsense and then a politician called her on it. If she didn't like it, maybe she shouldn't have been spouting total nonsense!
...so you can probably determine the processor type by having someone visit a webpage, but wouldn't infecting someone involve, oh, I don't know, taking advantage of software flaws? At which point you've already got your malware inside.
Also, what the hell are you going to do to with processor (or other hardware) specific malware? Sure, you can infect the drivers or firmware or whatever, but how is this different from any other vector of attack? Maybe I'm missing the point?
You could like mention that this is projected to be the least number of vulnerabilities per line of code they found. Oh wait, that would require reading the article.
I use Chromium on Ubuntu 10.04, but I didn't use any <, so not sure what happened. Also, HTML comment style? Why would that prevent me from pasting a link?

Yes, the reason people don't have old PCs is because they break down, not because newer and better technology comes out.

Don't expect human rights abuse to stop though.

Maybe, but he still shouldn't be arrested for it!

No, it isn't. Lisa was released before Apple acquired the rights to the Alto GUI.
Yes, sorry, confused the research center with the thing. (I think you mean "The PARC was a research center?")
The Apple Lisa directly ripped off Xerox's PARC.
Apple did it first, which was the point of the summary.
No they didn't, Apple ripped off Xerox.
Or, y'know, Chromium/Chrome, go to Settings -> Under the Hood -> Content Settings -> Plug-ins and choose click to play. Oh yea.

Security through obscurity wins again.
Everyone knows that works so well for Microsoft.
I don't care if you can do oodles of HTML, if you can't paste the bloody link into the bloody white box, then all that HTML isn't worth diddly squat.

Heh, it wasn't there when I first refreshed, nor after I registered and came back. Not sure why it was hidden, my bad.
..download and compile the 2.6.36 kernel. A feature of the changes can be found at http://www.h-online.com/open/features/What-s-new-in-Linux-2-6-36-1103009.html A very very easy to follow guide can be found at http://kernel.net/articles/how-to-compile-linux-kernel.html Sidenote - What is up with this comment not showing up when I wasn't registered. That's stupid and annoying.
