And now what about Gaim; that AOL IM clone...? How does it stand up to the threat of MS complient clients now that their protocol has been published? Could it be ported to Win32 to battle MS clients? I know it isn't a new protocol, but it's a platform on which to improve AOL's.
How is it that people need to be protected from nudity?
Do you ever hear "And another nudist goes on a bloody rage..." or "Scientists say that you should avoid all images of nude humans including yourself. You can't see yourself without getting screwed up..."
There have been many tribes in Africa and Austraila where everyone goes around stark naked, but the members are the most stable, kind, family-oriented people you'll ever see!
I remember when I was a kid. I would watch The Mupped Babies and The Smurfs in the morning, and Nightmare on Elm Street and Hellraiser at night. My parents believed that there is nothing wrong with looking at the human body or its functions, and they didn't believe watching a bunch of naked women being chopped into little peiced was that bad for you either. After all of the things I've seen in my early childhood - I turned out pretty well. I'm mild-mannered, respectfull, free-thinking, courtous, a bad speller, and the only one who can find the humor in Freddy Krueger. In my opinion the columbine incident was caused by the "jocks" and the lives the boys spent (living on an air force base, etc.). Not guns, not movies, not videogames.
It seems that there's a group of posers that try to cling to the latest computer rage without any thought as to why. They jumped on Win95 because everyone else did, and had to taught how to move a window. They don't even know why they have a computer - everyone else just has one.
At my school there are a few people like this that jumped on Linux. Not because of stability, speed, or power, but instead, because it made them look "cool."
While designing linux, or parts of linux, to be user friendly (in a way targeted at ignorant users) is dangerous. The last thing is someone in a high position who can't get AOL to work to try linux and tell the world how terrable it is, but we should also remember that we need to make this as easy for ouselves as we can.
By the way, the instillation program does seem to be 65% for idiots, 35% for real linux users.
the difference is that in star wars, people want a continuation of the original 'Star Wars'. when jar jar was added, they realized the movie was not only different, but aimed at a completely new target audience. it's like going into Hellraiser 3 and watching the TelleTubbies! it's as irritating as hell. but, with austin powers, everything's up for grabs - they can do anything.

So security may decrease obscurity and therefore my actual security...?
This makes things easier, and clearer. Now those hard drive companies can't try to trick the not so bright...

This be cool.
No one takes Reno seriously, not the government, or the media. Everyone knows she's a nut.
I think the 3.5" floppy is the best size, or maybe just a little smaller... 3" or 2.8"?

oh, GOD, please! shut this idiot boy up!
when i downloaded it - it sucked, but when i streamed it - it played fine. try that.
I've become so numb to sarcasm I don't know it any more. Was this sarcasm or just idiocy?
they like to be known as computer geeks. they just don't seem to understand - they aren't.

please don't mention insurrection - i'm still denying it happened
some playstation games did this and it worked great. it made a 2x cd-rom seem like a hard drive.

Why does it matter what other people are using? Use what you think is best.
Feel free to slap me around if the answer to this in in some documentation, but why, exactly, does the Win32 Mozilla pass everything to a DOS box?

a little on the extremist side, don't you think - even if it is a retalitory exaggeration
What does wanker mean?
This one's perfect!!
How about some really cool latin thing? It has to be something that'll catch on.
Wow!! :->
