Aimster doesn't store anything. They are not like Napster, which stores a centralized list of mp3s that are available. They simply provide the program. You can no more sue it out of existence than you can gnutella.
It is not nearly as public as napster is. Say you and your hundred closest friends on the Dave Matthews mailing list all put each other on your buddy lists - presto! you have access to just about every song Dave ever made, and probably quite a mass of songs by other people too. I mean, have you browsed some of these people's archives on Napster lately? I've seen people with over 10,000 songs available! Get that dude on your buddy list and it greatly expands your music selection.
If he had published a pamphlet saying the exact same things as the web site and distributed it off-campus, there would be nothing the school could do about it, even if someone brought that pamphlet onto school property.
You obviously haven't tried it lately. The newer clients (limewire and bearshare, especially) are a giant improvement over the earlier ones. My search for 'Orbital' just turned up 1300 matches. Now, all we need is an encryption layer with some proxy features, and there will be no way to stop it. If you get a DMCA notice, deny it and your ISP must legally restore your connection - make them try and take a million people to court.
Genetic testing can be used to determine that one person is related to another. If you are my brother, we share a very high percentage of the same genetic material. If you are a distant cousin, you can say with a reasonable certainty how many generations back we have a common ancestor. Now compare a person with a monkey and apply the same test. You discover that several hundred thousand generations back, they have a parent in common. Simple, eh?
If you are sold a service that stipulates 128k uploads and 384k downloads, it is their responsibility to provide it. Everyone should do what I do - listen to high-bandwidth mp3 streams 24 hours a day, every day, even when I'm not home.

Once in a while, one of us has a girlfriend who *demands* that we make a lot of money!:) I could actually care less how much money I make as long as I can do what I want, when I want. Money is a side effect of the kind of things I like to do...
Oh my god! I played dungeons and dragons *at* Kent State University! How in the name of all that is holy can I be allowed to roam freely amongst the innocents of the world?!?!;)
And what's worse is that at Kent State, it is nearly impossible to get out of living in the dorms and paying for their ridiculous food plan your freshman and sophomore years. You have *no* say in living there, and *no* say in when they can enter your room. True, in this case they did get a warrant, but unless something has changed recently, they don't really have to do that.
Yeah, that's why one of the people killed was a girl who was not even taking part in the protest - she was walking to class. Both sides in that situation fucked up.
If you are actually an intelligent programmer, there is not a thing that Kent State can do for you. The only interesting thing I learned there in five years was Huffman encoding. Seriously. Go and get a job right now and forget the degree - they might actually make you more stupid than when you started!
Then why bother? The information content is exactly the same whether you use text or html, but with text there is no chance of silly exploits like this. You gain exactly *nothing* by using html.
Whilst technically you can convey whatever information you want through the use of plain text (maybe using some *emphasis*) and attachments, for many this is a solution which is less convenient for them - it requires more clicks or keypresses to access, and doesn't present the information in quite such an integrated manner.
How does it require more clicks to send a simple text message than to send some nasty html-formatted mess? All you have to do is start typing!

Umm, we here in the US have this stupid thing call Secret Evidence (tm).
Which you neglect to mention can never be used against an american citizen...
Funny. I was just wondering the exact same thing. I've been trying to get wine working with openGL on my Nvidia card, but haven't been able to yet. It compiles just fine but then when I try and run anything that uses GL, it complains about some missing libraries (don't have in front of me at the moment:( )

I take it you haven't looked at Gnome lately? I've got both on my system, and they are approximately equivalent in both form and function.

True or false: Genetic testing can tell how far back two humans have a common ancestor?
Now apply the exact same test to a human and a non-human.

All you need is *one* little self-replicating molecule to start the whole thing rolling...
I don't think you looked very hard...

Or maybe in this case, "The Penguin Scare!!!".
Bahahahah. Are we going to start having senate hearings - "Have you now or have you ever been a member of the open source party?!?"
