I think we don't need more between the voter and the politicians, we need less.
ya..the developer/s of 'MoveOn' on the emerging free software tools page probably agree with you...the link goes to... er... some emerging free software?
I am not an Apple product user (IANAMPU?), I don't think I have ever used one. I have never seen one but make no mistake I would love to get one of these for starters. I have two close friends who have both used Macs extensively. They swear by them and I believe the reports.
But this elitist drivel is just the type of crap I've come to expect from certain quarters after 5 years of avid browsing. The reason the article drives me nuts really comes down to cost. (FYI) The submission here pretty much sums up the article except to leave out all the sarcasm and jibing.
Sure, commercial users who are able to purchase $3,000 worth of hardware without bumping up the mortgage probably 'can't understand why anyone would want to go to so much effort for so little reward'. They probably do honestly think that at $99 Photoshop Elements is 'cheap, painless and produces high quality results'.
So who cares about the unwashed personal use throng?
The cost of obtaining a great quality Digital Camera has made all the difference over the last couple of years. It's one of those cases (like digital music) of people getting a chance to take a part of their real life and combine it with their interest in computers or email or the internet or even just a penchant for electronic wizardry, at a price and personal cost that really is cheap and effortless. My point here is that personal users do matter - more each day in fact.
Whilst I know I am not a GIMP zealot I have used the WIN32 off shoot (The GIMP windows version incidentally, doesn't have to be compiled in an end user sense it comes as an installer executable). As an end user however I am relatively motivated by the general ideas and beliefs of the open source commnuity and in that domain the GIMP is the anti-candle.
Then there is the issue of breaching the User License. For all you folks who don't taint your pure selves with the concerns of warez and all that - Adobe (for as long as I can remember) has always produced software that seems to be notoriously easy to crack. So I guess, sadly, that gives users such as myself another option, that no-one ever seems to acknowledge.
Hmm.. I guess no image editor war is ever going to start here (for the time being), right? Let's be honest - it's like comparing a foot massage with a ho down in the holiest of holies. Everyone knows that.
The article mentions the problem with the help system. (I vaguely remember discovering a fix at some point.. can anyone help?) In any case look no further than here for what I consider to be a remarkable effort, all things considered. It really sums up to me why I (but more importantly GIMP developers) go to all the effort for 'so little reward'. The author of the article says in respect of the MacGIMP that he thought he'd have a look. I guess then he thought he'd wipe his MacNIKEs on the hard and thankless labour of others. Have some respect fulla...
I have rtfa and the interview and the submission here and I can't find any evidence that the playing of the game (Counterstrike) caused the gun to be used violently. There was a gun and violence and a game of Counterstrike, so what? Was the gun toting individual affected by playing Counterstrike? Were his actions justified? It's not likely, but we're not given enough information to decide for sure. What about the actual team members that encouraged the associate to shoot? Why didn't they just grab their friends gun and do it themselves if they were so demented from hours of Counterstrike. There is also something about the press release that doesn't add up. The only reason I could think to get to work immediately on such a carefully crafted announcement would be to preempt some type of legal action by either party, but the lack of specific details within it raises some suspicion here. I would be interested to know what action Hill Jr took to 'resolve the matter and stop the fighting'. Maybe neglect in developing any conventional social skills landed him in water over his head? I know I can organise a decent gaming session without any real violence breaking out. Why does trouble seem to follow Jr around? Who's to know? Sr. makes some general speculations about what causes these outbursts. He suggests yep it's our fault, it's the games fault, the empathy of the community is to blame. Not much of a defence... And why defend the gaming community? Because the media told you so? No thanks.
Marylin Manson said, 'keep everyone afraid, and they'll consume.' Is Mr. Hill milking a bit of free advertising? Would guards and metal detectors repel the gaming masses. Hardly! I wish I could make sense of mindless acts of violence but this story does nothing to help me do so. I love the idea of guns as much as the next FPS gamer, but I could live a lifetime and not own one, let alone present it at someone. There are an estimated 2.5 million plus people that play Counterstrike worldwide - and one of them gets a gun pulled on him by another? Even if this is what happened, the only reason I care, is to chuckle at the over-reaction to it by the gaming community.
Would you let your kids wander on their own through the worst areas of your city?
How can you come to physical harm online without giving out traceable information?
Maybe you can't. Of course psychological abuse can be as damaging to children as other forms, physical etc.. Observing domestic violence, sexual abuse etc.. without incurring any physical harm.
Here in New Zealand for example, provision is made in the Statutes, recognising the significance of psychological abuse.
I do not know the effective defense of a satelite phone vs a bomber either - but even with a really good throwing arm I'm guessing it's less than 10,000 metres or 10,000 feet - whatever revision they're packing.

Tasktoy is another, very simple, web based to do list.
put a down payment on this.
I use this one. There are some other tools at their site. This one has more of a guitary look.

Weird - I was just reading this when the news anchor woman on telly said Christopher Reeve had died. Is this true?
This sounds like the 'Allow websites to install software' setting in the Web features tab of the Options.

And clippy said.
Damn - I forgot. What the hell is the GIMP? Is he like Goofy or what?

I got your 2 player paddle game right here.
and I clicked on the link assuming that you had decorated a Mac cube, maybe like a gingerbread houes or something.
You mean like the Gingerbread Lan!
This reminds me of the line from The Usual Suspects
'The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled, was convincing the world he didn't exist.'
It would be interesting to know what this guy accomplished that was never publicised.
'home blindness kit.' ??
When will people accept that porn viewing does not lead to blindness.

I spend the last 3 days trying to get KaZaA and WINE to play nicely and now this..
Just as an aside. My usual reply to this excuse is. "So where was the sign that said you could drive at 80km/hr."
...I ran a couple of common phrases through the M$Word grammar check:
.exe.
I must us a Windows machine -- ok
I must us an Windows machine -- ok
I must use a Win doze machine -- ok
All your Windows are belong to us -- ok
Not bad for a paltry 8.6 mb

... and only give them the bare necessities like Stinger missiles.
Various firearms also use tritium for sighting.
heh
isn't the consent of the customer implied by continued usage of the service...it doesn't really say in the article.
but will it support wine?
can we expect this? "linuxgames - proudly powered by by xbox.."
