Now THANKS to Apple, we're stuffing.. oh wait, we're wishing we could stuff 3.5 floppies into those tupperware containers. MY kinda fun! It's amazing how they can market it so no one cares. They should try and market bodies without asses, and see if people notice.
Main Entry: apple
Pronunciation: 'a-p&l
Function: noun
Usage: often attributive
Etymology: Middle English appel, from Old English æppel; akin to Old High German apful apple, Old Irish ubull, Old Church Slavonic abluko
Date: before 12th century 1: the fleshy usually rounded and red, yellow, or green edible pome fruit of a tree (genus Malus) of the rose family; also: an apple tree 2: a fruit or other vegetable production suggestive of an apple -- compare OAK APPLE - apple of one's eye: one that is highly cherished <his daughter is the apple of his eye>
Welp, doesn't take a genius to figure out this one!
They aren't going to look at the compressed video streams, but when you get sent the plain text header for the file hot_sexy_porn.rm, it gives it away.

I don't like "Qworst". Before Qwest bought out US West, I had "US Worst", it sounds SO much better. Oh well, it's the price you pay.. But you're right about Qwest. Becoming a CLEC and going up against Qwest is hard work.
Don't forget that Tribes connects to a central server to give you a list of all the other servers. If that gets shut down then you'll have to go into irc and give IP's and whatnot to connect to a game. Not fun.
With @home their upstream is restricted to 15K. So it's not a bandwidth concern, and they never check to see if you have a server running. They just don't want to be liable if you want to sue for an outage, or anything else that may come up.
Hooked up to my computer is a device which shoots ions onto a curved piece of glass. When I stop passing electrons to this device, and place a piece paper on it, the paper is pulled to it. Like gravity. My new energy source. I have documented my ion device in more detail here.
The printer will automatically detect and install the driver for you on startup. You would have to try to not get the printer installed (not that hard though, just disable it in the device manager). Of course that's just one example, and some things do have a curve. But I think it's enough to show my point of what linux would need to become to be main stream.
I have done some tech support in my day. And I have people who have never touched a computer before. And I get them setup. Is it because of my degree in installing printers in windows? No, it's because it's really easy to do. I'm not some windows zealot that thinks MS should rule the world. I'm saying that linux needs to get that easy to be *the* OS.
Heh, I hope it's not like "info" on irc.linux.com.

They can force you to use special speakers. So the whole loop is secure. The only choice you would have is to put a mic next to your digitally secured speakers.
With porn you can be a little more anonymous if you're one of those kids that gets off to the sample pictures. But sometimes you have to give up a credit card number. Visa now knows that Joe Schmoe is going to this site and paying for gambling. If they want to send a check it has to have your name on it instead of "Anonymous Coward" and an address to send it to. Of course you can still to the site and take a look at the "sample gambling", but that just isn't the same.
I mean Follow SPAM with "Luncheon Meat", do you think these people have every tried SPAM "Luncheon Meat"? They should try and just get used to "SPAM, It's better than nothing". Or "SPAM, Looks like meat, smells like meat, must be meat"
First, on their site they always call it "Aimster", not "AIMster". And "aim" is a dictionary word. Now that might not be enough in itself, but they have little bulls eyes all over the place. Cause it's *Aim*ster, ha, punny.
It's legal in washington to video tape people without their knowledge. In fact one guy set up a camera in the sea gals (superhawk cheerleaders) locker room and all they could charge him for was tresspassing.
I replied to an email that was about a pamphlet that would make me rich! I ordered the pamphlet and they told me all I had to do was sell these pamphlets on how to sell these pamphlets. Now I make $7,000 a month and quit my job!;)

Yes, they first thought they could get more revenue from dropping marketing. But when that failed, they needed to lay off more people.
Keep in mind they patented their PROCESS for making Damascus Steel, not Damascus Steel.

"I would rather have an OS that didn't have a learning curve." Sorry about the mixup.

I would rather have an OS that didn't have newbies.
