The systems are interesting in themselves and the article raises interesting concerns about what implications the systems have on privacy.
Well duh. This wasnt invented so you could take a close up picture of a flower while flying in an airplane. It was invented so we could spy on people. Now the question of who we are going to spy on........
lollipops that you stick in the base and they play music in your head, but no one else can hear them. Now they need to put a chip in you throat so you can mouth the words without saying them but it picks them up and speaks for you.
I use it with Debian and mutt. Great combination. Dumps all my junk into a junk mail directory where every once in a while I report them all and them delete them. since I run a small mailserver and some of my used use Windows I am glad to hear of this. They get thier SPAM marked and they use filets to keep them out of thier inboxes, but they have no way of reporting them. I amworking on a procmail recipe that will send them the SPAM anyway, but send a copy to me so I can report it. Hopefully this will become a moot point for me.
Thank you for proving my arguement. You expect it to work, and if it doesn't? More than likely, you will contact the company in some manner (call tech support, visit their site, etc.) and try to fix the problem. By doing this you are making their software betterfor they will be fixing bugs you find. So like I said, everyone has a role.
Well, that IS how they teach people to do it in college...
Thats not necessarily true. I am a college student now and I just finished a tough course in advanced data algorithms. Our programs were graded heavily on if they did what they were actually asked to do. It was not so important how it did it, but rather that it obtained the correct results. (The projects were assigned in such a way, that making smart intelligent software made you work easier in the long run.)
but what are you personally doing about it? Everyone can help to make software better, from documentation to testing to actually coding. I find that most people bitch (including me), but then they don't end up doing much about it. A lot of software's terribleness lies in our hands.
but I dont need to know about it. I know there are secret government organizations monitoring what we all do, but I can;t prove that and they don't tell me, so its ignorant bliss. They are gooing to do it anyways, just don't tell me, and I will stay happy. (But I still don't want them to do it....)
I know what they are saying, but if thats is not what you want as a consumer, try this...... DON'T BUY IT!!! I know this sounds mean and like I support the RIAA, but I do not. To me, its just common sense, as a comsumer, if I want to buys something, I look at ALL of the specifications, and if there are any I do not like, I might decide not to buy it. This might mean I do not get the product at all, which sucks, but hey, that's life. You have weigh out the pros and the cons... and decide if it is still worth it to you to buy the product.
Well Armageddon may of had some mocei flaws, but so did the physics review. They point out how gravity would be approx 1/10th of that on earth. Then they go on to say that they were walking around normally. Well duh, apparnetly they missed the part of the movie where hey had there little thrusters in their suits to keep them from floating away.
I don't mindcritizing a movie for making up physics, but comeo on guys, get your facts straight.
KDE is just plain ugly to me (it also feels blocky).
You may think KDE is ugly (and that doens't bother me a bit), but how can you call it blocky? To me, Gnome it way more blocky. But hey, to each his own. I personally use XFCE.
How do we know if its really there?
I would lose those....too small. ;)

The professor in charge has told BBC News Online that they're '20 years ahead of Moore's Law.
I'll believe that when it is in production and I am buying the damn things.....

Under's who jurisdiction? What is I am in another country? What a load of hot garbage.
Most people that will be buying a computer from Walmart will be new to linux, so Mandrake is a good distro to start off with.

Tell that to the RIAA!
I'm not so sure......that I would want to see some of the women who are phonesex operators......
There is nothing like drivin down the road while talking on your phone while being able to take digital pictures....

thats assuming that our current phyics theories are actually correct.
Ok,
Explain to me how you use the kernel if it is not first INSTALLED?
