Actually, if you set up Hotmail with Outlook Express it automagically puts a banner ad at the bottom of the Outlook Express window.
Seriously, try it.
I just tried it. No banner. I'm using Outlook Express 5.02 on MacOS 9.1; maybe the windows version is different. In any case, I just checked my hotmail account without seeing any banners.
I did, however, see lots and lots of spam, so maybe microsoft is getting some revenue after all from me (selling my throwaway hotmail address to bloodthirsty spammers)
But it's getting a little passè. How about something really interesting?
yeah, I suppose i've posted it quite a bit but I saw the oppertunity for an almost-first-post and I've still got by +1 bonus, so i figured one more for good measure.
And I'm sure the families of the guys who got tied up and executed by u.s. special forces don't think the issue is passè at all.
quoting from rw: Before dawn in Afghanistan last Thursday, US Green Berets launched a surprise attack on their unarmed allies, storming a disarmament depot with indiscriminate fire, then rounding up survivors only to tie their hands behind their backs with plastic bands and execute them. This according to that America-hating, propaganda-strewn leftist rag, The New York Times. God bless America.

It's a pity felt cracking was required to get his message accross, because now no matter what they do to him they can always fall back on the (legit) cracking charges. The EFF or ACLU would be plenty willing to defend someone who was being hassled by the FBI for anti-american opinions, but I doubt they'll go to bat for someone who admited they hacked sites just to get their message out. What a dumbass.
Why should drugs have special treatment?
Again, what makes drugs so different?
Because weapons smugglers are hurting society, and pot users aren't. People are in fact LESS likely to commit violent acts while under the influence of pot. They're more likely to sit around and not hurt anybody. Pot is good for society. If the millions of drunken wife beaters in this country could legally get pot instead of liquor, do you really think our domestic violence rates wouldn't plummett?
Pot only hurts people because it's ilegal. When harmless members of society are rounded up and put in jail because they happen to light up the wrong kind of cigarette, the kind that can't be easily taxed, it ruins lives. There are millions of kids growing up without fathers because of our moronic drug policy. The instant rebuttal to that is "they wouldn't have made very good fathers anyway, being degenerate drug users". Think about that for a second. Do you honestly belive that a happy pot smoking father worse than no father at all?
In regards to your government source:
The sugestion that domestic, high quality, pot could be mixed (or "cut", or "bulked up") with shitty mex weed is laughable. Anyone who's actually seen more than a few varieties knows that this kind of trickery would be quite obvious to the end-user (heh. end-user, getit?) and would not be taken kindly too. I know that in all my time as a cannabis connoisseur I've never seen somebody "bulk up" their quality product with mex. Maybe things are differnt elsewhere though, and I'm just lucky.
In any case, the mexican importers may be criminals under our current law, but they certainly aren't the international terrorists we're after. They're drug smugglers. If you can call any old criminal a terrorist, then you could start putting any old criminal on trial in military court and totally trample all over constitutional rights. Oh, wait. yeah. nevermind.;-(
The ad revenues are, of course, really the main issue here. Microsoft doesn't need to limit hotmail to IE users, because when I pull up hotmail in Opera I still see Microsoft's banners and they still make their money. When I connect to AIM with a nonstandard client, however, I do NOT see aol's banners. I'm getting their free service, and they aren't getting any revenue from me. The aim service is free to use, but it certainly isn't free to run. It's paid for by advertising.
Notice that the only non-webbrowser (and ad-free) access to hotmail is via Microsoft's own mail client (outlook/outlook express).
On the other hand, AOLTW is a huge megacorporation, and the cost of running the AIM network is probably trivial on the grand scale of their expenses. And, the vast majority of im users will probably just stick with the official client anyway. So whats the harm in a few million unofficial-client users?
And how do you think FARC in Colombia make their money? Selling cookies at bake sales? They're only the most prominent example, but they aren't the only group of people making their money by growing drugs or "taxing" their export.
Those aren't the terrorists the TV ad's are likely to address. In the minds of the American people, the word "terrorist" directly refers to certain Islanic extremists, who, in reality, make very little money off american drug users. Regardless, anyone who DOES make money off selling drugs in the U.S. wouldn't be able to make nearly as much if our government hadn't created incredibly high prices (by keeping drugs ilegal and seizing them at every turn).
You really have no idea if what you smoke came from a hydroponics lab in someone's attic or from a Abu Sayef field. And when it comes right down to it, you really don't care. If you did, the ramifications of supporting the domestic drug trade would have stopped you long before now.
You are very mistaken. The source matters very much. On the rare occasion that something comes in from out of state, everybody knows. It looks and tastes different! It's usually not as good. The "domestic drug trade" that I support isn't a bunch of TV-style gun-toting gangsters, they're freedom-loving peacefull Americans just like me who like to have a good time. THAT "domestic drug trade" is something very much worth supporting.
So long as MY tax dollars have to go towards funding methodone clinics, USCG interdictions, and training foreign police and military forces, they'll go towards these commercials as well.
Heroin addiction is a sad thing, but I'd rather pay for methodone clinics than the alternitive (in this country, thats round up the junkies, put them in jail awhile, dump them back on the street, lather, rinse, repeat).
As for USCG interdictions (I assume you're refering to coast guard anti drug actions?): again, this wouldn't be an issue if we relaxed our damn drug policies.
But I don't want to be paying for foriegn military training any more than you, though, so at least we can agree on that. Funding foreign militaries is what got us in this terrorism mess in the first place!
One thing you'll be able to look forward to: fewer sock puppet commercials, more anti-terror commercials.
Those aren't anti-terrorist commercials! They're anti-drug/anti-personal-freedom commercials!
They're taxpayer-funded government propaganda designed to fool people into thinking that users of ilegal drugs are somehow supporting terrorism. In reality, the only actual drug/terror link would be in opium-related narcotics (ie heroin), but I don't expect the super bowl ads will mention that. I also don't imagine they'll mention that opium exports from Afghanistan have increased since the Taliban was ousted, namely because the Taliban had (at our request) banned farmers from growing opium. No, these ads will just say that drug users support terrorists.
Personally, I'm 100% certain that when I buy MY drugs, they're locally grown and I'm in no way supporting terrorism. And it makes me awfully bitter that my taxes are being spent on a pair of superbowl ads that do nothing but slander me and the millions of other innocent americans who happen to enjoy smoking pot.
There are real threats to this country right now. The government was able to arrest 734,498 Americans for smoking pot last year, but was somehow unable to catch one lunatic in a cave in the mountains. It's downright shamefull.

I read the story, but don't believe a word of it, mainly becuase I know the military, and they just don't do this kinda thing.
Or is it because you don't want to believe that they do that kinda thing? The U.S. military actually has a long history of shit like this. Anyone who says otherwise is in denial or just doesn't pay attention.
Also, the "america hating" bit about the nytimes is sarcastic, see, because in reality the nytimes usually doesn't print anything too anti-american. But I guess that went right over your head.

The kit includes a a NIC. A ps2 running linux can play videos and mp3s downloaded off the internet. For those of us who already have a ps2, and who would like a set top mp3 player that can pull stuff from a samba share in the other room, this is not a waste of time at all. (and thats just one use for it, there are countless others)
you can get 40 GB hard drive for 67$ in retail, NIC for 10$ in retail and all those other adapters and perhipals for 40$..in retail... so their hardware cost like 60$ max...
Maybe they aren't expensive on your home planet, but here on Earth, they cost about twice what an equivalent x86-based PC does.
Yes, you could buy an x86 pc with several simmilar numbers (mhz, ram, etc) for a lot less than any of apple's offerings. However, it would still be an x86 pc. It is not an equivilent machine by any means. You could also buy a hyundai for a lot less than a BMW. Some people can afford the best, some people can't.
(i use a 500mhz imac here at work, and cheap pc's at home. My ideal home workstation involves something with OSX, I just havn't bought it yet)
for the "Classic" environment. It seems so stupid watching macos9 boot up in a window when you want to use a classic program; Apple ought to save the state of the classic environment in to a file that could be quickly reloaded into ram when classic is called for. As the blurb said, laptops have had the suspend feature for years; would it really be so hard to apply the same concept elsewhere?
