Microsoft Money doesn't help me buy anything. It does tell me that I'm way over budget and will be bankrupt within 3 months of the start of the fiscal year.
I don't think you can seriously say that UNIX is dying and say that Linux is killing it. Linux IS UNIX.
Unless you are trying to say that commercial UNIX systems are losing ground to Linux, it simply doesn't make sense to make such a false distinction between UNIX and Linux. They are one and the same.
These security problems are fixed by switching to a modern language like Java or C#.
There is really no excuse to use C and C++ in this day and age except that the programmer in question is too lazy to learn newer and better ways to program.
No one uses Algol anymore. No one ought to be using such outdated languages as C and C++.
Should we be calling it "Silly Putty"?

It's amazing how a chemical compound created while trying to devise better ways to kill enemies works out to have recreational purposes.
And they say America spends too much on military research.
No one wants to be tracked, but that's not what we're arguing here. GPS is publicly available information, just like court records and property deeds. The judge is making a completely arbitrary distinction and is wrong.
Take a look at the AIDS epidemic in Africa and ask yourself if you really think you could force people to get a license before doing going off and doing things that are as natural as two dogs fucking.
Nokia is a phone company. Just because they can buy some cheap Taiwanese crap and slap their logo on it doesn't mean that it has any of the Nokia quality that we are programmed to expect.
Just because you can "share" copywritten materials doesn't mean that you are legally permitted to. The RIAA is completely right about this.
Disregarding whether filesharing leads to lower sales or whether the RIAA could support better artists or whether or not the RIAA is approaching this thing like total jackasses, the main thing to remember is that filesharers are violating the law.
It is foolhardy to think that you could flagrantly break a law and suffer no retribution.
Take a good look at the Columbine videos. Those Klebold and Harris learned how to handle those weapons from video games. They learned how to not be afraid of the weapons. They became desensitized to the weapons and the gore which they inflicted upon the students and teachers at Columbine.
Perhaps it wasn't the games that set them off (more like multiple swirlies and wedgies in front of girls), but the violent video games they played gave them the tools to perform their carnage.
If it didn't work so well to desensitize kids to violence, the military wouldn't be using the same type of simulations to train troops.
The holding hostage of ideas is completely contrary to the basic natural rights that ideas have. The GPL is one way of fighting for the rights of software, but there really isn't a way to fight for the freedom of ideas.
In this century, the war to free ideas from patents will be waged as long and hard as the war a century ago against slavery. Information slavery is still slavery.
"The issue isn't 'Are flammable liquids safe on an aircraft?' They already are allowed with liquor and perfume,"
If I had my druthers, perfume would be banned completely from all flights.
But seriously, the main problem is that these fuel cells can be easily reconfigured to contain highly explosive materials for use as portable bombs. In this highly charged anti-terrorism atmosphere, it is important to make technology as transparent as possible. The more a technology relies on bomb-like batteries or razor-like Flash memory cards, the more likely it becomes that a real terrorist could sneak a truly dangerous device onboard.

Here at MotoRex quilty is job one.
Yeah, mine to.

Small, light, inconspicuous, and doesn't have any extraneous crap sticking out of it.
Oh, the iMac G4? Damn, I thought I had a surefire winner there!
The liberty to break the law?
That's not a liberty I'm aware of.

Age 20 years in 3 months.
That's what waking up at 3:00 in the morning every day to take care of the kid does to you.

How's that song go? What have you done for me lately?
I don't have time for this Mickey Mouse bullshit.
But Sandman is where it all went bad. And then the whole thing with his anti-Napster stance came along and blew his credibility out of the water.
He really should have stopped at Justice, which along with Puppets were the zenith of his career.

And they encourage youths to delve into occultism and ultimately drive them to suicide.
Just thought I'd point that out in case you weren't aware.
Ideas should be Free.
The holding hostage of ideas is completely contrary to the basic natural rights that ideas have. The GPL is one way of fighting for the rights of software, but there really isn't a way to fight for the freedom of ideas.

If you are a large game house like EA with solid games like their EA Sports line, you can expect big returns for yearly updates.
Try to break into the business without having serious funding. It's almost impossible.
The only thing that is clear from this article is that them that's got will get and them's that's not shall lose. And it still is news, I guess.
Maybe they'd be interested in some anti-spam software.
Everyone knows it's the 3-second rule.
And I check it twice.
Checking twice really helps.
perfume
tiger balm
tobacco (all forms except leaf tobacco used in salads)
children under 16
peanuts and peanut-based products
fat flight attendants
korean people (though a korean person could qualify for travel by avoiding the consumption of kim chee for 2 weeks)
terrorists
dirty hippies
fungi-fied feet
Anything I missed?

Will you really have more than one of these devices?
Drop some acid and open your mind.
