Just build a giant sunglass-monocle. UV-shield it, and we're ready to go. Just don't let anyone say anything about magnifying glasses and ants. There will be no discussion of this!
maybe if the CIA wasn't using such out dated software and dedicated so much of their time searching for the evils of the world
I guess I missed the bulletin on outdated software, but both of these points sound awfully congruent with our lovely government's (USA) affection for bureaucracy and sluggishness. I'm going to make the assertion that hackers in Russia and N. Korea are given a little more leeway on doing what they do.
And yet, your post contains less than the GP. Mr. GP actually made an assertion. You just attacked it. Congratulations, you're as bad as the fundies in this regard!
All of this aside- If I were Christian and some whacknuts stood up, claimed to be Christian and then tried to claim the earth was flat I'd be a little ticked off. I would stand up and emphatically point out that they did not speak for me. I guess I'm just a little bothered by the fact that we don't hear about people doing this.
This is why I loathe every other news story in this country. Being a Christian who isn't a fucking psychopath is not very fun, because you just want to bang your head repeatedly against a wall everytime you see a "Christian" say something on TV. The main problem with being a "moderate" is that we don't generally get too up in arms about stuff, so it's hard to rally people against anything, especially people who are supposedly your "brothers".
It's a shame, though, because my needs don't quite fit Apple's schema.
You know, it just ocurred to me: Apple is like the Henry Ford of computing. They made a product better than most things at the time, and you can have them any way you want them, as long as it fits in their demographic-marketing plan.

Same here... I wish I was competent enough in coding or packaging, or, whatever to help in a distro but I have a feeling I'd get RTFM-STFU'd if I tried to help.
Resistance is futile, your lowered marketshare and reduced profit will alienate investors, other publishers and console makers. Prepare to surrender or die.
Well, the target market for minis is not us, the power users. They're more for the average technophobe and perhaps grandma. These people usually are doing one thing at a time, for example e-mail or web browsing, and MAYBE listening to some music.
Please, for all that is still sane in the world, don't say this. While it will be very tough to repeal any of the DMCA here, you guys have the advantage of seeing what it has done in this country. Preventing legislation is a lot easier than overturning it (right?). Think of the majestic moose, and your weird bacon. The thought of these two things alone will give you strength to fight.

DO NOT LET MS do anything that could screw up Linux.
That is all.
AMEN. This comment will be tacked on my dorm wall for the duration of the year (at least).
This is probably a games-specific thread. Most people won't ever see it.
They could take the specs from the customer to the engineers.
I shall train my children in the ways of Alchemy.
NO NO NO.
Pokemon the CARD game was actually developed BY Wizards of the Coast,
No, WotC only translated/distributed the game (created/developed by some Japanese company) for a few years. It is distributed by someone else now.
Pokemon DID influence America (Yu-Gi-Oh games, anyone?).
I don't know what you're trying to say here, but Yu-Gi-Oh is not an American game. It is a CCG that was originally developed in Japan.

WTF is a "complex OS"?
You better not tell this to any americans, you dirty communist hippie.

Group 1 are all shitty to each other for a year.
Group 2 just behave like they do normally.
I'm sorry, I don't think I understand the distinction.

If some company can't stand the name, they never wanted it in the first place, and just threw out an exceedingly LAME excuse.
Well, I can't stand the name iPod, but I sure as hell want one anyway.

Congratulations sir! You have made the first on-topic non-troll joke about Debian ever!

the Street also thinks that this is a good move.
The "Street" also dissed Apple when they beat their quarterly earnings (or something) projections last time.
So you're saying we should have to play sports naked? That sounds like the only way to remove performance "enhancements". (Must. resist. joke.)

Make a better double-sized Mac Mini now!
You want fries with that?
So let's see, they really have history going for them here:
Ford - Pinto
Microsoft - nearly everything
Sounds like a match made in heaven!
It's like kids graduating from the DARE program in the US...
