I remember a bunch of punks like this in the old game subspace camping in the T20 safety zone so players (newbies and experienced) would get obliterated just nudging within a few screens of distance. The way to deal with these types of people is to do the same thing back. It's no fun for them. I got an armada together and we linked ships to beat the crap out of them for a good 30 minutes straight. That was such sweet victory.
some part/faction of the companmy actually likes Linux. That damn company is so big, it's left hand cannot possibly know what its right hand is doing. The XBox group is probably encouraging Linux. We already know they've taken code.
That would be one hell of an unusual PR move. Microsoft showing humility to gain goodwill. AT the very elast, it would be one hell of an attention getter. Though, of course, it would never happen. They'd double their profits for the year charging $1000 a throw. Linux geeks and users would jump at the chance to dunk Bill.
They had all kinds of infected messed up skin, eyes, etc. . . due to a disease called the pahge. In a later episode with some super intelligent villians that did work for a price, it was indicated that these villians cured the Viridians.
Provigil was developed in France in the 1970s. Although no one is sure how it works, animal studies show that the medication--unlike other drugs that induce wakefulness--doesn't seem to dramatically increase levels of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with arousal and alertness.
Sure this really sounds safe. They don't even know how it works.
A better title for this article could have been "Kindergarten Policy". Remember, especially early in school, when the whole class would get punished because someone did something bad? Not only does the punishment (the honor code) affect the people who did the improper/bad/incorrect deed it goes so far as to restrict valid thnigs/deeds the class is doing.
These are a realistic set of parents. They go out and drink. The mother dressed up as a pimp for one halloween and the father dressed up as a hooker. It was quite funny.
This is not to say everyone should be like that. They do not wear rose colored glasses. The mother listens to Papa Roach. The dad listens to Jazz. They both work out.
I just meant it as an example of how parents can influence their children.
True, but at least it is a start. Time will reveal all things, but the parents are starting all this at an early age so they don't have to undo something later. The kids may go do something "wrong" later but that will be later when it will be their decision and they can look back on things taught to them by their parents. Students can always ignore the teachings.
I may have played this off like them being perfect. The one girl has gotten in trouble for hurting other kids just like any other. She was demonstarting kickboxing off all things. She is not typical. They after all do not fully understand how to control themselves like many adults.
Parents love to blame everything else. Theoretically there could be some blame if the games/media re marketed towards kids. However:
My cousin has two wonderfully cute and intelligent little girls (ages 4 and 5). She has already gotten them to shy away from anything related to violence or sex. They are obviously too young for either. How has she done this you may ask? She spends a lot of time with them. Their Dad does as well. The kids get punished when they does something bad. They do not get spanked and taught that violence is a solution. They get things taken away and/or are not allowed to do things.
People will pay for quality software. The issue here in particular is not whether or not people deserve to be compensated for their work, but rather why would you pay for an OS that prevents you from doing something. This is not a function that the OS needs to specifically provide, but for their own money grubbing monopolistic reasons they decide to restrict.
I do pay for quality software myself. All the games I have unless they were freeware I payed for. Heck, I even payed for Winzip, 98SE and the 98 to ME upgrade. I will not pay for an OS that prevents me from doing something that has perfectly legal uses.
I tend to worry about Microsoft being able to tell companies where to go, ut I am heartened by the lack of companies that migrated from NT4 to 2000, their continuing stupidity and the fact I just saw a Corel-Linux with Samba box in my Companies network running part of our UK office. The hard part will be getting the general public to accept Microsoft alternatives.

It's not an entire season. It is the first 11 episodes.

The U.S has always been a republic no matter what they tried to tell the general public.
The words obsessive and idiot comes to mind if this was true.
I should drive on over and check this out being right next to Glen Burnie.

No problem, but why the FBI. Why not, gasp, the local or state police?
Just copyright denial of service attacks. Everyone knows copyright law is more powerful anyway.
Yeah, it might have been flamebait, but it is still funny.

Why don't they just blames cassette deck/player manufacturers for decreases in sales while they are at it.
Woohoo! With this and the represnetitives actually taking notice of people's opinions in reference to the CBDTPA. The tech world is a little better.
In an interesting turn of events, sex is outlawed due to its addictive properties.
World panic ensues! All goats run for cover!

I should start making a bunch of Linu stickers. Think of how many people will want to change the top of the box from "X" to "linuX"
