But the adolescent male heterosexual in me is giddily excited at the prospects. Same with you, don't deny it.
true, definitely true. but the weary middle-aged male in me isn't looking forward to eating catfood out of a can with my fingers in my retirement, what with all the output of our economy whizzing around in space over our heads.
I think this is ridiculous, since this would imply that you must carry ID at all times just in case.
i've got it! let's make an id that everyone can carry if/when asked for. how about a Ron Jeremy fan club membership card? it could have a picture of him on there stroking his massive cock.
Actually, I just don't care about market share, with either Linux or the Macintosh.
i most certainly do care about market share. if your platform has neglible market share it's easy for content producers and software developers to ignore it. imagine how different www standards compliance would be if Internet Explorer only had about 30% market share and the rest were divvied up among the other browsers. or how differently the issue of proprietary document formats would be treated if only 30% of users had microsoft office.
an' another thing: perhaps i'm a zealous optimist, but i think the projection of 6% by 2007 is too conservative.
those who would trade essential platform independence for a little temporary performance increase deserve neither platform independence nor performance increase.
EFS which is the service that allows encryption of NTFS filesystems, under Windows 2000 it uses DESX which is a MS implementation of 3DES which provides ~128 bits level protection. Enabling encryption is as simple as right clicking the folder or file, advanced, click the checkbox that says encrypt.
All this, and you can absolutely, totally trust it!
when you're going one way, and you see a bunch of unwashed people in rags running in the other direction, tripping and crying uncontrollably, grasping at the sleeves of your sterile white doctor's coat with their gnarled, flat-tipped fingers, begging for morsels of food or the dregs in your Starbucks cup - common sense says turn around and go back the way you came.
Also, there's the chance of being treated like Mitnick, and charged as a "terrorist." All for the sum of just under $32,000 a year.
that's why i've begun outsourcing all my virus-writing to india, where the programmers aren't spoiled by "health insurance" or "a living wage" or "the requirement of staying out of prison".

...does this mean they can no longer claim trade secrets in their code, since it's not secret any longer?
this is beautifully slash-zen: two diametrically opposed posts both modded "informative".
they're used to that. if you really want to piss them off, do what i do: call them "cupcake".

just give it awhile, you'll get there.
note to moderators: not funny.
great, now if i could just get rid of the segfault i get every time i try to run glxgears we'll be all set.
He has no nuts. Smooth as a GI Joe doll.

freeing Java and thus putting an army of FOSS developers behind it is Sun's best hope for staying in the server market.

these guys are probably interested.
you'll get my donkey-porn when you pry it from my cold, dead, sticky fingers!
although they'd still be missing the "conscience" and "basic sense of humanity" genes...
actually i'd be surprised if the match were all that close.
a Swing app in 2.5 secs? it takes about 2 secs to start gedit, a freakin' text editor.
