Well, I'm an American and I don't have an accent. Most other Americans I know don't have one either! Are you sure you havn't gotten us confused with someone else?
What network is this on? I've never even heard of this show. I'm very interested in seeing it, and yes thats just because of the Gene R. branding. Final Conflict wasn't quite star trek but was still cool; i have high hopes for this. So where can I see it?
Consider how many teenager allowances it absorbed, that money could have been spent on useful stuff like drugs and beer or acne ointments.
motherfucking WORD. But then again, you gotta laugh a little about the fact that people not only poured tons of money into the game for years, but now some luckey bastard is probably going to spend $25,000 on it.
anyone know who owns the copyrights on the nadia flick? Because I bet disney is about to make a boatload of money, as they often do, off this movie. Sounds like a pretty airtight case, if it could ever hit the courts.
I'm all for more user-privacy, but I don't see M$'s motive for doing this. How can it benefit them?!
And, by a local cookie do they mean from the same domain as one up in the location bar? My website has several domains, and uses a cgi program that spits our a semi-random image and also sets a cookie. The cgi is always called from one of the domains, so if someone finds the site by typing in another of my domains and the cookie gets set, is that not a local cookie?
so, if I had a company that offered thgis service, and I collected 4.5 million checks for $50 with included DNS samples, and I didnt launch anything into space, would anyone know the difference? Probably only a few employees, who I'd be able to afford to pay off quite nicely.
Uh, maybe you missed http://www.opensource.apple.com/, but apple has released quite a bit of code and none of it is GPL'd. The GPL is the last liscense apple would use!
Try www.yahoo.fr i bet that server isn't in the US. If it is, that would just be stupid seeing as most of its traffic would be headed straight overseas anyway.
Yahoo does bussiness in france, therefore they have to deal with french laws too. Thats why they're wasting time listening to a franch judge.
The silly french just don't realize the impossibleness of internet censorship. For the time being, I'm all for the plan of "cut france off from yahoo and leave a letter getting people pissed at their govt". But regardless of what happens, I bet in 10 years we'll look back and laugh about how people once thought they could regulate online content.
good..
in two years from now when you are sitting on your ass with your degree, will you be more savy about hardware than the schmuck who reads these sites all day? I didn't think so. The schmuck community lands another victory!
While I agree that his work is pretty well theirs from a legal standpoint, I would think that the comments should be property of their authors. Since not all people posting on the site are uou students, they havn't all signed their rights away. So are the comments still the IP of uou?
On another note, I'm interested in what kind of offensive posts could lead to police removing the server! I'm guessing that there is a lot more to this story.
Sure, outlook gets the job done. I use it everyday for my work email (my personal email is thru pine, naturally). However, my work comp is a mac. The windoze version simply cannot be considered decent software due to the horrible security issues.
anyone notice that the netscape page linked to says communicator can decode rot13 but not encode it?
How can that be? If I select text and 'decode' it, are they saying it wont get rot-13'ed?
nothing official -- except the microsoft.com part! If microsoft ported perl to windows, it would have to be open source (gpl or artistic, I belive), and that would be equally impressive. ---
I've been pondering this article for a while, and I'm pretty certain that its a hoax. Could the wealth of a huge motel chain put people in space? I'm sure this guy is rich, but there are richer people who arn't doing this!
This is, however, getting "Budget Suites" mentioned all over the news, and portrayed as being modern, with it, cool, etc. Nice...
I stayed at the budget suites in Las Vegas (they have several there, I was at the "Rancho" one) and it was horrible. The maid comes once a week if you get the weekly rate. Since I was there for seven days, I got my sheets changed ONCE. After our second day there they ran out of towels and just kept saying "were waiting on the laundry service". I was there with a decent sized group (for a paintball tournament) and several people outright lost their reservations for no good reason. Though they had previously promised that we could park a 20 ft trailer there, that turned out to be false. While I was trying to talk to the dumb inbred whitetrash bitch at the front desk, she took a call from her mom and started arguing with her about gambling debts. It was incredible!
[end rant]
Anyway, if they new "space hotel" is of enven remotely simmilar quality as their earth hotels, I won't be going anywhere near there!

Maybe this negative publicity will get them to release it &/or fold it into the next update to the operating system.
I wish. For some reason, no matter how nice apple seems they're still corporate bastards when it comes down to it. "Think Different" my ass.

Virtually every license I've ever read has stated "Subject to change without notice".
This is nothing new, and certainly nothing noteworthy.
I fully agree. However, my opinion is subject to change without notice.
