    I think your son will be really gratefull for that.

    A bunch of aliens is hanging around mars, looking for a fight or something. They come across a capsule, open it, find a bunch of names and think: Hmm, yes. let's go kill those people.

    I've encoded a bunch of queen numbers at 320kbps, because anything less doesn't do justice to freddies voice (I'm talking about things like 'prophets song' and 'exercises in free love').

    Heck, why not just have a piece of software click the I agree button? It's just an installer, you didn't agree to anything ;-)

    No, not really. The whole lucid emacs vs 'normal emacs' thing hasn't stopped me from using emacs. (Mind you, some other factors have ;-) ). If people want to judge the quality of software by the arguments its creators make, their problem.

    thnx. Well, I've got it running! No dual monitor working yet though :-( (Banshee & Diamond Stealth II).

    Yes, the error rate is high. But why have they only sampled 50 sites? It seems a too small number to get an accurate estimate.

    Yes, sendmail config is difficult. But is that a problem? CLI's have a steep learning curve too... And that's what makes them so powerful. Idem for sendmail.cf. And just like with CLI's there's an easy option (called the GUI), there's the m4 file for sendmail. What's the big problem?

    The arbitrary code thing shouldn't be a problem, sourceforge already gives you a shell account iirc, and you can get shell accounts at lot's of places nowadays.

    Yup, that would qualify nicely. As long as you only take the one page, and not the entire thing with rants/about me section. It just depends on your definition of 'site'. (Mind you, there's still a high content/size ratio).
