I've wanted to experiment on the side with WO , but the cost prevents me. There's no way I can justify it until I can demonstrate something. Apple had an eval version of 4, but not 5. I couldn't find a pirate copy, either, but maybe I just don't know where to look.
if they really don't have the authority to grant any exemptions then they sure as hell don't have the authority to strip search or harm anyone who hasn't put up any physical resistance.
What kind of hare-brained logic is that? If you don't resist they can't strip search? So as long as you behave yourself you can stick a bomb up your shorts and they can't go in there looking for it? Here's the deal: They can strip search anyone they want. They can hold you without telling you why. There is no place where you have less rights than when entering a country.
You are right that the FDIC does not insure PayPal, just many of the individual bigger PayPal accounts.
No, it doesn't even do that. It insures the accounts into which PayPal deposits the money. That means that PayPal can collect if that bank goes under. It says nothing about you in turn being able to collect from PayPal.

No internet users? So who's going to sit on this board then, My aunt Shirley?

Yeah, same with the warez FTPs i visit, and the kazaa users we all download music and movies off of. They jsut respond to my messages for files. What's wrong with that?
Nothing, as far as the maker of the FTP server is concerned. It's not the FTP server that's stealing, it's you.
Cutting our latency by 1/3?...Anywhere from 0 to (Pi-2)/Pi is the correct answer. I hope that's what they'll say in their publicity.
Yeah right. I can just hear Larry King doing the interview:
King: Now I understand this cuts latency by anywhere from zero to Pi minus two over Pi. What a minute, I don't understand that at all! Can you put that in layman's terms?
Scientist Guy: Well...about one-third, Larry.
King: There! Now that's an answer I can understand! What's with you scientist guys? OK, now this latency thing - what's that?

The deal with BNetD, that has already been stated, is that it allowed people to use pirated software
I don't see how that can possibly be their responsibility. They are not running the pirated program - all they are doing is dealing with the output of that program. If I write a program that does something with Excel files do I have to figure out if the Excel was a legitimate copy? Does a printer have to check the validity of Word before printing? Does my FTP server have to check the client?
They get messages from a program. They send messages back. That's all they do.
If you can get them to agree to it, have them actually sell you the equipment, with an agreement that they have the right to buy it back at the same price within a certain amount of time.
If they return the money to you then in practice it works out like it did before - the difference is when they can't pay. Now you own the equipment instead of just keeping it because you feel you deserve it (a feeling the bankruptcy courts are unlikely to share.)
The thing is, if you can afford to take a $350,000 loss, you probably aren't working there for the money so much as for the fun of it
Chances are this guy couldn't possibly have made anywhere near that in a real job getting paid real money. More likely in order to keep him on when the money was gone they agree to "pay" him some huge amount. It's much easier to do when all it is is a promise to pay when the money comes rolling in.
Things get very very strange when desperation sets in. If all it takes is some magic words ("We'll pay you X!") to keep things going, you can bet those words will be said.

Summary of the parent post:
OS X has serious problems. 1. alt-tab goes circular instead of in a stack. 2. It takes a while to figure out how to add a user remotely.
Man, you've opened my eyes! What a lousy OS! What the hell is everybody thinking using a piece of crap like that?
Like it or not, many companies expect their programming team to be able to use [Flash or Shockwave]
No they don't. Where did you get that notion? Or do you consider the "programming team" to be anyone who does something more complicated than word processing?
One would think you'd have noticed that he also wrote UTC-0500, since you quoted that part. It's amazing that the answer to your question is right there in the text you copied.

Of course not. One step at a time, after all.
