Should have known better is that it? Ass What is all the noise about? A TOS does NOT make it ok to hand ANYONE over to "authorities" which are known for killing, torture, disapearing there citizens(slaves) etc.... You are a pompous self centered egotistical ass. Your ok with what they're doing obviously since your so indifferent to the chinese peoples plight and people talking about it is taking up SO much of your precious time. I mean obviously we should be discussing what your interested in because as we know the whole fucking world revovles around you.
Excellent point. So then WHY do these companies who have patened their 3D technologies feel the need to keep it all secret. Maybe a unnamed company has formed a heavy handed alliance with them in a you rub my back I'll rub yours kind of situation?
Everything you say makes money the reason why there would be this division you predict will occur. I can afford to buy their **SHIT** and I'm not using that word in a positive light. I don't because I hate them. I hate them and their archives of music. I hate them for trying to own popular culture or any culture for that matter. I hate them for their greed and their dictating to us what we can and can't do and how and under what circumstances we can. So I don't buy it. I'll tell you that should we enter into a world where I and others who choose not to buy this **SHIT** as though there is nothing wrong with it and we have some mysterious obligation to buy something of which we don't want and in fact hate that I will cheer anyone on who bombs the corporate head quarters of the likes of the RIAA and their commercial supports. I will cheer on any crackers who can infiltrate the banks that hold their bank records and financial data of any kind and wipe it and destroy it. People who support them, in the citizenry or government are at fault. Trying to paint things as black and white and create the notion that music should have to be DRM'ed that if I my self were a musician I should be forced to DRM my content to validate other's doing just that is absurd and a SERIOUS threat to mine and others freedoms and liberty. If it came down to civil war I would happily join in and I'll tell you I WOULD NOT KEEP ANY PRISONERS OF WAR. Each if them would be shot square between the eyes. Think I would turn down a chance to ILLEMINATE that mentality? You have another thing coming!
To Homeland Security, FBI, CIA and all you other commercial idolizing ass licking money whores. DIE AND BURN IN HELL. I curse you all and will NEVER Forgive your transgressions against my self and others!
It just might be that some of us are sick of commercial entities pulling from us and are pulling back. Why should they get away with their selfish controlling nature and yet we shouldn't have licenses and rules in place, not to make money but to protect our rights and the life styles we have been accustomed to for many decades now. Oh that's right. Some commercial entities think they can remove what we've enjoyed and wrap it up in some other package and dictate to us how things can be used in a way in which they could not before. So if it's for money anything goes? They were just trying to make money why don't we get off their back? Oh horrible us for fighting against being taken adtantage of and financially raped as well as having our experiences altered to fit commercial interests idea of what we can and can't do. Your NOT a friend. YOU are the enemy as is every idiot that mods you up!
You are an idiot! People on the greater average do NOT know the limitations ahead of time nor what DRM is. Walk down a street or hall in your local mall and randomly ask people if they know what DRM is.
People who research and are aware what they are buying are the minority.
People who go buy the next new toy because it's the latest fad tech/music toy because so and so has it and now they must have it to keep up with the Jonses don't research and educate them selves. That's too much trouble, they just want it to fill like equals to everyone else who's gone out and bought it. It's more of a indirect peer presure sort of thing.
So please shutup and do trip down a flight of stairs so I and others don't have to read your ignorant words and so there is more oxygen for the rest of us. Your taking up space!
"If I didn't have to check the legality of every Open Source Library and OS feature I would easily use them in my commercial work."
When your coding within your company or ANY company you HAVE to check the legality of using ANY software which is not completly owned by your company regardless of whether or not it's GPL'ed or not. Even then you would have to CHECK with your manager and how ever high up the command chain you need to go to determine when and how it's ok to use the companies software/code. In short your just a winey little bitch here.
"I will in no way however do anything which will draw another set of threats."
That's good, you should't be using GPL'ed or other Open Source licensed software if your not going to bother to read the license and *UNDERSTAND* it before you start coding. In fact any source code made available under any license you have a responsability to read and *UNDERSTAND* before you begin coding. Just because you didn't sign a retarded NDA does not mean you don't have to worry about how you use someone ELSE'S code!
"the OSS community has sent threatening letters to the company I worked for because we linked with libraries considered to be GPL'd forcing us to write wrappers and stop using some of them."
Didn't read that license until you *UNDERSTOOD* it, DID you?
"Not a very good way to get fan boys. CGoK"
Neither the Free Software community nor the Open Source community need ANYONE claiming to be a member of them or speaking of them who doesn't understand nor respect them.
Further more if you consider it such a hassle then DON'T USE IT/THEM. If GPL'ed or Open Source licensed software did not exist then you'd have to turn to other resources or, being unable to code everything your self, give up! Just because it's out there does not mean you can do with it what you want, how you want. Your car sits out front of your house or in your garage. Just because I'm aware of it gives me no right to go steal it does it?
All together your just a selfish whiny little bitch who doesn't respect anyone elses property or what these communities are trying to achieve. Why don't you just shut the fuck up! MORON!!!
"and often provide a good amount of convenience to users without having too many pernicious uses in practice."
Any is too much. And what defense can you or anyone else give for not clearly labeling each and every cookie with it's purpose? What's wrong with setting data fields that can be "read" to verify they're setting what they say they're setting.
If I walk down a street where there are sellers who want to approach me and push their product, are you saying I don't have a right to completely ignore them and not have my person/property trifled with or tagged?
Would you happen to be saying I don't have a right to control how and under what circumstances I spend my money and turn on my heal the second I deem it necessary without leaving anything of use to the seller about me. A market is about goods and services for "THE PEOPLE." Just because you are a person and you live in society does not mean you can expect people to be "OK" with you or others providing a "service" to another who pays you for keeping tracking/targeting data on me or anyone else effectively trying to treat us as cattle. It's unethical and wrong and money is no justification for ANYTHING. Money is a means to an end. Not an end to a means. You are at fault.
"people don't tend to remember their passwords, for example, so being "forgotten" by some sites is likely to be a pain."
Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape support extensions and there happens to be one called "Always Remember Password" which does just that. In addition if someone were to forget their password any DECENT system will allow you to inform it and then send back a random password to log in with to your registered email that you can *TRUST* them with to use ONLY for that or what you ALLOW them to use it for.
"And while cookies might be used to 'serve up targeted ads', it seems to me that if you're going to be served ads *anyhow* then you might as well see things that might be of interest to you..."
Who decided I was going to see ads *anyhow*, it sure as hell wasn't me. Here lies the problem. Your attitude and all of theirs is that we're all going to get this whether we like it or not. Which is BULLSHIT! This is why you will never be respected or trusted because you think it's your position or right to make decisions for every one else and me. Don't be surprised when I and others say Fuck You!!!
Since you know can you or who ever tell me what the hell Spatial Nautilus is?
I know what Nautilus is but hardly use it cause it doesn't run "light" enough but what is this Spatial stuff I've been reading about for a couple years now?
The quickest way to do that I would imagine would be to break the arm they were using to poke you after you told them umpteen times to stop.
To give in to what ever they want validates their unethical/immoral/unprincipaled behaviour and welcomes more of it in the future.
To expect everyone else to be ok with this shows you have no respect for a persons personal space, right to be left the fuck alone, and to make their own purcahse decisions based on their own fucking perogative.
I nor anyone else has any obligation to view ANY of their shit OR YOUR SHIT. you must be on their side to defend them.
People can sell products and services without advertising/marketing. It's called a directory. When people want soemthing ***they*** take the initiative to find what they want.
THE WORLD ***WOULD*** BE A BETTER PLACE WITHOUT THEM.
If I had to deal with these same kind of people on the street or walking up to my house I ***WOULD*** cary a bat to crack their skulls open. If people don't want it and you've made that abundantly clear verbally where verbale communication was conducted or by blocking electronically any further pushing *********IS********* HARASSEMENT!!
If they the advertiser or webadministrator doesn't like that they can simmply find a way to detect that their fucking ad's aren't loading and deny the rest of the page loading. When all those who won't put up with it leave you can be happy your saving all that bandwidth from people who won't tolerate it.
CURSE YOU AND GODDAMN YOU AND YOUR ILK IF YOU WISH TO REPLY AND DON'T KEEP YOUR FUCKING TRAP SHUT/FINGERS STILL!!!
May be a day late to respond to this but I'd just like to say. I consume food and drink. I don't know about you but I sure as hell don't shit cd's and dvd's. When the FUCK! will people stop referring to CUSTOMERS as consumers and extending credibility to these greedy sons of bitches!!!

Have fun idiot.
I know some one that will pay me $500 if I naplam your ass.
Profit!
Oh and what makes them new?
I'm not asking to know.
I'm asking to make you think.
Can you?
idiot
they are greedy
very greedy
just the same
idiot

I've heard Charlie Foxtrot on military movies and such but what the hell does it mean?
Thanks in advance.

Every where you go these days they try to dress up advertising as a post or a conversation.
Greed and stupidity abound. meh
I'm glad someone mentioned this!
Oh come on!
With Windows Vista I could literally cruise the vistas!

I've always thought it was:
GUI=Graphical User Interface:
Xfree / Xorg
TUI=Text User Interface:
ncurses, slang: "make menuconfig," links, minicom stuff.
CLI=Command Line Interface: actual cli commands that accept command line arguements and can direct output, input, and error from cli.
Yeah.... Ok.....
Whatever money pig.
Your all crazy to seriously think this is ok.
I think you make an excellent point and that is very much needed and necessary.
With regard to 1 and fuser not working with the kernel NFS daemon.
I don't know that it would work but you might try lsof.
As far as 2. Yeah.... Yeah, that is REALLY annoying.
I'm sorry it seems someone has named a program after the spy network known as Echelon.
