The problem here is that with Microsoft's weight thrown into it, they may just be able to pull it off. Assuming they can convince people to trust them, that is.
Personally, I would never trust Microsoft to not sell me out to the RIAA or MPAA if I did happen to swap a song or movie.
The more posts I see from you, the more I find myself given over to the idea that you, sir, are a big dumbass. A big, pompous dumbass. Your views are so egocentric I nearly shit myself. The jargon file? Since when is my understanding of the english language supposed to be influanced AT ALL by this document? Is this a shrink-wrap liscense kinda deal?
Besides, the jargon file, much like modern dictionaries, have changed through the ages. Even webster adds new shit occasionally, or changes definitions to previously defined words.
Things change. You can either accept the changes, or live in the past and be regarded as an out-of-date hippy. If *YOU* don't mind people misunderstanding you, thats your deal. Don't tell me how to talk.
I realize that you are simply a karma whoring troll, but please, pull your head out of your ass for five minutes and realize that *you are wrong*
If you have anything intelligent to say, please feel free to email me. If not, please go fuck yourself.
