"We have shut down all ability to reset passwords,"
And you're calling that a "FIX"?!? Dude, that's a "work around" or a "hack" or something along those lines. That is most definatly NOT a "fix". If they turn the service back on, guess what'll happen...
I understand that you're refering to things from 5 or more years ago, but...
Use Mozilla. It blows IE out of the water (for me). The only thing I use IE for is to hit windowsupdate and that's only because MS bans any other browser from using it...
Point 2. Microsoft will not allow Linux on this machine.
I'd like to see them try.
I'm no coder, but there are thousands of people out there that can crack whatever MS tries to do (search for 'xbox' on Source Forge for examples...).
They can do whatever they want. I personally don't care. If there's a machine that's controled in this fashion, I won't buy it. It's really that simple.

You need too emerge sync bro.. the ebuild is in/usr/portage/x11-misc/karamba
Oh... I hadn't realized that. I had manually added it a week or so ago. I guess I should emerge that one so updates will be a lot easier. I do run ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86", but it still wasn't available when I had the time to try it out.
There is no "official" ebuild for gentoo yet (that I know of). Look here:
... ... ...
Hmmm... well, it looks like we killed kde-look. But still, there is a posting of an ebuild for gentoo there from a couple weeks ago. I installed it and it compiled fine.
does anybody know if there is a KDE theme to approach aqua?
What "theme" are you asking about? Icons? Window Decorations? Widgets? Colors?
There's a couple Mac-sh clones for icons, there's a few different ones (and a few of thoses) for the Window Decorations. And there's always Good ol' Mosfet's Liquid for the widgets. And there's a ton of color themes too (Mosfet included one or two in his Widget theme as well).
Just go to KDE-Look. You should find everything you need or want.
And depending on your distro, there's brobably RPM's, DEB'd, EBuilds, whatever for most of the stuff there. I personally use Gentoo. There's a LOT of EyeCandy that's made it's way into the Portage tree. If you're on RH... Well... They've never been too KDE friendly, but I'm sure there's some other stuff that will work on the system from rpmfind.net, should you feel that compiling is too great of a task.
Why invent a new character when you have a monopoly on the one you've got?
Because it's boring.
I don't know about you, but I have a son that'll be 4 in June. He's really into Dinosaur. Ya know, that 100% CG movie with Aladar and the Lemurs and the Carataurs and all that. I know I'd plink down cash for a sequal to that. Same goes for a Toy Story 3 (should one ever get made). A CG Mickey? Booooooring...
the fact that there were only 2 stamping plants in operation. Why didn't they ever go down in price?
Honestly, do you really need to question this? People bought them! People bought them like crazy (I know I did). Why lower the price when obviously people will buy them at that price?
How does 10 years of experience translate into knowing about the hardware bug they slipped into your keyboard?
It doesn't. That was his/her/it's freakin' point. Esentially, the post was about "hidden" processes running on various OS's out there. *MUCH* easier to detect on *NIX. THAT was the point. I suggest you actually read articles and posts before posting in the future.
A lot of the albums are $9.99 each (even when they have more than 10 songs)
Yea, If I'm buying an acient Bowie album or something. Take a look at something releaed in the past year or two. Your thought will then differ. Sure, if I want to buy The Eagles Greatest Hits CD from 77 or whenever that was, yea, it'll be dirt cheap. A newISH CD will not.
just because you (who I suspect is a geek who knows how to maintain a system) don't see BSODs anymore
I am a geek. I'm my company's Admin. I have to reboot my XP laptop two or three times a day. I'm typing from KDE on Gentoo right now, because my XP laptop is running chkdsk...
If MS is so against it, why do they build it into their products?!
probably as protection from DMCA.
Please explain how building web services and file sharing services into an OS "out-of-the-box" is protecting them from some crazy "pirating" violation. I'm really interested in your logic behind this as it makes zero sense to me.

Am I missing something here? Is your version HORIDLY out of date?

I think we can all pretty much agree that Michael's a complete fucktard.
/. for 3 or so years.
I've been here on
I second your thoughts.
You, my friend, are a nut case. You said:
this has already been fixed.
Then you went on to post:
"We have shut down all ability to reset passwords,"
And you're calling that a "FIX"?!? Dude, that's a "work around" or a "hack" or something along those lines. That is most definatly NOT a "fix". If they turn the service back on, guess what'll happen...
IE 4's rendering speed was a huge improvement
I understand that you're refering to things from 5 or more years ago, but...

Will we have to activate the box before we open it this time around?
Hmmm... 2005. Well, Mr. Lucas is supposed to have Episode 3 out in 2005. Hmmm... What's that part about Anikin again?
Seems like you can't swing a dead cat without hitting an SAIC employee.
That's Scene 24, right?
Does anyone else see through this simple ploy on Microsoft's part to collect all of our biometric information?
/me grabs his tin-foil hat.

You are misleading what was said.
