He must have been listening to someone's network traffic, and either he was eavesdropping, or that other person allowed it, and this could be construed as a violation of the Bitkeeper license.
In what reality? Looking at a software package doesn't mean you accept it. Reading a license aggrement doesn't mean you accept it. Listening to or looking at output from a program doesn't mean you agreed to any license terms that program is under.
EULAs haven't even been proven to be enforcable in court. Lets not even forget the fact that reverse engineering for interoperability is expressly protected by even the DMCA.
So again I ask, in what twisted reality could simply listening to the network traffic of some other program be construed as a violation of that programs license when you did not buy, use, copy or modify the software in question?
If we started limiting free speech freedoms to those who know how to speek properly maybe we wouldn't have such a functional illiterate problem in the western world.
My only problem with free speech is that those who don't know how to speek also have the freedom.
I don't think it's so much as reasons 2 and 3 as it is reason 1. Never underestimate the power of cheaper. The mac mini is going to get a lot of people over to macs, especially when tiger comes out.
The funny thing is that the installer will complain about using grub on an xfs partition-I had to install LILO. However, booting up, installing grub using apt and installing it myself worked absolutely perfectly. Grub works with xfs, what's the big deal?
Unless the content discovered had anything to do with the prospective employee being incompetant for the job he was being considered for I think it should be completely irrelevant what google turns up.
Just what kinds of things have/would you find through a google search that would disqualify a candidate?
With my cost of living that's a very comfortable life. I'm a "fucking idiot" am I? Care to explain why? Perhaps because I dislike spam and the ISPs who harbour them? That makes me a "fucking idiot" does it?
Interesting, if that's all it takes to make someone a "fucking idiot" then I wonder what your lack of grammatical and punctuation skills make you.
FYI I am out of highschool, make almost double minimum wage, and think that people who base their livelihoods and jobs on unguaranteed mail delivery systems get what they deserve. I however, who embrace RBLs, get less spam.
Now if your argument held any water you wouldn't have to resort to baseless personal attacks.
The fact is this bullshit costs people money, lots of time and resources, and the occasional customer.
Right, and spam doesn't.
Seen the latest aggregate numbers on spam/nonspam ratios lately and how much bandwidth and money it costs ISPs?
Email is not a guaranteed delivery system, if you're losing huge amounts of money because some email didn't get through then that's your fault, next time send it fedex and get a tracking number.
"Therefore, whoever wishes for peace, let him prepare for war."
I'm sorry you disagree however war is necessary in many situations. Diplomacy is always used first and war should always be a last resort, which is how the RBLs approach it, but it is necessary at times.
Cruel, unnecessarily harmful? We're talking about fucking email you retard, not genocide. You have a choice to use RBLs or not, excercise that choice if you don't agree with the methods. I happen to agree that the ends justify the means.

And everyone knows 82.5% of statistics are made up.
Whipping out my English cluestick...
English shouldn't be capitalized when speaking about the language, only when speaking about the people from England. The English speak english.
I've seen an episode or two, but honestly, even being Canadian, couldn't bring myself to like it.
This in no way means that I like Joey, Raymond or other insipid garbage.

Even the worst made application ever should not be able to kill the kernel in any modern operating system.
Money.
GPL violators are trying to make money on other peoples work.
So far, music file swappers seemed to be doing the recording industry a service, their revenues are up.

He was reverse engineering the BK protocol to get source from the server without having to use the bitmover client or whatever that's non-Free.
I'm sure he used various versions of unix at helsinki university.
I feel sorry for the poor SOB who pays for his trip on the space elevator in US $2 bills.
Hmm, don't use A64 however it might be an old grub.

Again, I didn't ask *how to play* an .amr file, I asked *what the fuck is* an .amr file. Seriously, reading comprehension.
I use linux you insensitive clod.
.amr file* is, which was my question, not how to play it.
Not only that, your post doesn't explain *what an

Then ask them and make your decision on whether to stick with them for email or not, or even whether you want to switch providers.
