Normally this would be correct, but when their blocking software is installed on all public library and school computers it's no longer a private matter.
Actually It has alot to do with the First Amendment. They may not be able to stop 2600 magazine from publishing what they do(until they figure out how to get rid of that irritating constitution) but they can certainly use it as a judgement against their moral character pertaining to anything else they can get 'em on. If the defendants look like bad guys to the general public then they must be bad guys.
This is just the sort of ridiculous position I've come to expect from the US government, and with Bush in office I'm sure we can expect alot more "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" play with big corps. It wouldn't be so bad except the WTO wants to impose US trade policies, patents, and rules on everyone else in the world too. Any other geeks up for buying an island and forming our own country? *g*
I've always disliked the mail password feature on _any_ site I've been to. It'd be much more effective and secure to one way encrypt the passwords and if you lose or forget it to assign you a new one and mail _that_ password to you, so you can then change it to whatever you choose.
Wouldn't NTFS compatability in Linux allow anyone with a Linux micro-distribution(on a floppy) access the information on a computer running NT on NTFS? AFAIK the current situation is that even with local access, unless you have a l/p for NT you can't get to the info stored on the NTFS partition, even with a boot floppy.If so I could definately see this as a valid reason for Microsoft's anger, although not for grounds on which to sue.
Unfortunately this never works, there's always a way to circumvent anti-piracy measures. Look at the dongle, it was supposed to be uncrackable yet there are plenty of pirated copies of 3d Studio Max and Softimage around, both of which use the dongle for protection.
AFAIK it's an Ingredient in Excedrin(and several other aspirin/aspirin-related painkillers) because it opens your blood vessels and allows the painkiller to work on you more quickly.
Actually if you're running Windows you can change quite a few internal graphics and sounds in programs with a little prog called ReNovator. I wish I had an URL to find it but I can't seem to remember...
A full qual test wouldn't be neccessary, just an assurance that a corporation won't charge for a bugfix to their OS. I know I certainly don't like the thought of Micros~1 being able to charge for their blunders, as far as Linux is concerned I don't see the problem there, bugfixes are released promptly and free of charge, word travels fast, and almost everyone ends up happy in the end.:) ('cept for the k-rad leeto script kiddiez)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the fact that the NFS server is in the Linux kernel is responsible for many rooted boxes, is it not? I certainly wouldn't want anything running in kernel space which doesn't need to, especially something so easily accessible.
The Last I heard was that Elijah Wood had been confirmed as Frodo in Peter Jackson's upcoming adaption of Tolkien's The Lord Of The Rings. If THAT's true, it'lll blow away Star Wars (sorry to Lucas, but LOTR was my favorite long before I had heard of Star Wars:)
Well immediately after posting this a friend confirmed it for me.:) Apparently only a short portion of the original was used however, "Under the tongue root, a fight most dread, And another rages behind in the head". You can find more detailed information about it, and about the soundtrack in general, HERE.
Originally a rather famous Celtic Poem by the name of Cad Goddeu, or The Battle Of The Trees which was then translated into english, and from there they had it translated into Sanskrit for use as vocals in the song. An english translation(done by Robert Graves) can be found HERE.
If I'm incorrect, sorry, but this is just what I've heard.:)
Actually the real reason there aren't any skins on their site that aren't by them (or anywhere for that matter) is that the vast majority of skinners for windoze customizable apps use Netscape. They're too busy skinning their mp3 players and building themes for Litestep(an Afterstep lookalike, replacement shell for windoze) to bother wasting their time on Neoplanet. :)
They aren't very large from what i can see, saving the same 24 bit image as both a jpg at maximum quality(which still results in a noticable loss), and as a png(no loss that i could see) resulted in a huuuge filesize difference, with the png approximately a _quarter_ of the size of the jpg. Now that's good compression:)

I use Trillian and I got it.

Yeah but most Mozilla users are intelligent enough to take care of the problem themselves.

Someone already has built a clear computer, minus the clear drive casings though, check it out here.
Actually I believe Lightwave uses voxels extensively, they're very useful for animating objects like splashing water.

Square and new FF games for example. >$80 right off the bat.
Umm...I bought FF7 for my PSX for $40us, brand new, the day it was released. I've never even seen a Square game for $80, what country do you live in?
