And of course, every node needs an OS-integrated Web Browser, E-Mail Client, Newsreader, Media Player (w/ DRM of course, only Terrorists wouldn't want that) and Solitaire and Minesweeper games.
I suggest Twinnings English Breakfast or Prince of Wales, if you're going to go bagged.
At least english breakfast is also available loose-leaf. But he should spend his time typing, not fiddling with loose-leaf tea, so bagged is the way to go for our brave keyboard knight.
What conceiveable reason would anyone have for jamming a frequency being used for emergency communication? He's a terrorist. Make him wear an orange jumpsuit. Oh yeah, and send him to Guantanamo, too, for great justice.;)
I think we're up to "megakernel" by now. Longhorn should cross the "gigakernel" threshold, and when Office is finally integrated into Windows, we'll have the world's first "terakernel" OS.
And they'll stick that onto all the marketing brochures because we all know "mega", "giga" and "tera" are good.
Funnily enough, just before i read your rant i heared a report on the radio about public transportation in Switzerland and especially Zürich. According to the report, Zürich has europes busiest public transportation system, so the obvious answer to your question is: move to Zürich. AFAIK you can also buy and smoke pot there, legally. Obviously you shouldn't drive stoned, so the two features cleverly complement each other;)
the iTunes EULA--heck, every EULA from MS Windows to Kazaa to the GPL--relies upon copyright law as its foundation.
Can't say anything about the iTunes EULA, but usually software EULAs are (as the name suggests) usage licenses - as opposed to distribution licenses like the GPL - and have nothing to do with copyright and everything with contract law. They are a contract that you "sign" - usually - by opening the shrink-wrap that wraps the software media and the contract itself or by installing said software. Very shaky legal grounds AFAIK, although IANAL either.
Who plays the part of the coders in the real-life version of evolution?
Random mutation plus the constant stirring of the gene pool by fucking each others' brains out.
how does it happen in nature without such a guided, conscious effort?
As every righteous XP advocate will tell you, all you need are test cases. Code passes the test case or fails it. Phenotype doesn't aid in surviving, creature carrying genes for phenotype dies.
If there is a requirement for sentient guidance for one case, there is a requirement for the case other also
Linux has a purpose (see for example Tanenbaum for definition of an OS). Now what purpose does life have? Obviously if it doesn't have a predefined goal there's no need to for anyone to guide it towards that goal, isn't it?

How are we supposed to use this thing then? :)
It's a good thing they didn't patent MPDM then.
Hmm. 8 bits in a byte. Bigger = Better. So there. XP is a whole-friggin-truckload-of-bits better than 95.
Never heard of that, got any reference?

Because every Node needs a Windowing System in Ring 0.

Oh yeah, i forgot to mention, the city also has an "official" car sharing program and the percentage of car owners below 30 is actually shrinking.

He probably just was afraid of mucking with the LAPDs servers.
using 'loftier' terms for the computer case instead of 'the box'.Why don't they just say "boxen" like everyone else?
Where did I say "random"?
