ISO's are a stupid waste of bandwidth. FTP installs are far more elegant. ISO's just make kiddie users feel elite because they get to download a huge file on their cablemodems or work connections, then burn a CD at 32x speed. They also contribute to distro collecting where some moron has a wallet full of turbolinux, yellow dog linux, and other stuff he'll never, ever install.
Back in high school, when I read the Health textbook, I was always fascinated by the tiny paragraph they gave to LSD, in which it always talked about users seeing flavors and hearing colors. Of course, later in life I never experienced anything close to that, but nonetheless I found it tremendously interesting and couldn't wait to try LSD.
Have you actually ever been to a Japanese convenience store? There are a few mangas that don't involve women being raped, but you have to look to find them. And fight your way through the crowd that's standing around reading.
The Asian-American girls *I* know won't go out with any man who digs Asian chicks. If you have so much as a single Asian ex-girlfriend they stay the hell away from you.
And after a few years in America, most Real Asian chicks have completed their transformation into the above. But the saying is true, if you enjoy having sex with women, get the fuck away from cartoon shows and get outside.
Just imagine how scornful we would be if supposedly hip Japanese men in their 20s and 30s started falling head over heels for Disney animation and Tex Avery. We'd laugh and call them morons, and rightfully so.
It's coming...I know a guy whose company is working on that right at this moment. Very hush-hush. And you can bet that they're going to charge a mint for the service.
I'm rather taken aback at the idea that antitrust legislation is abused. AFAIK it's only been used against bonafide damaging monopolists, and it's worked rather well at busting up until now.
Even if they did, you could sue them, and win, and you still wouldn't get anything. MS lost against the U.S. government, for Chrissake, and didn't suffer one bit.
Since the U.S. defeated Iraq, and MS defeated the U.S., I think we can safely draw the conclusion that Microsoft is a tougher, more ruthless enemy than Saddam Hussein.
Are you kidding!?! China and especially Cuba are models of a working socialist system! Sure, they have some dissent from people who want to undo the fruits of the Revolution. But they know the fate of all enemies of the state. Counter-revolutionaries are harshly dealt with under socialism.
He was held as a material witness. Nice and legal. And let's not mince words, people here are interested in him because he works in "our" industry. It's inconcievable that an IT worker, (and an American citizen, no less!) would want to answer the call to jihad. Nope, he makes money in computers, so he must be innocent. Note the deafening silence regarding his conspirators.
If the cell phones had interfered with the plane controls, the planes would have crashed without reaching their targets.
As it ended up, half the planes reached their targets, one couldn't find its target (White House) and hit the highly visible Pentagon, and one was thwarted by true American heroes.

I have a download accelerator, too. It's called, "Buying the CD".
Actually I always considered SuSE's installer one of the best. Sorry you're having problems.

Is that anything like that stupid Seaman game?

No I don't like what you're saying because you're a pretentious, namedropping fuckwit.

Aren't we discussing anime? Comic books have fuck all to do with cartoons.

Where did I say that?
I think you missed the point. You didn't refute me at all. If anything, you validated my position. Thanks!
Nice refutation.

What, the thought that just because a man changes his citizenship, he becomes incapable of jihad?
No longer communist? You mean I can demonstrate against the government now, like people can in America?
Ben Franklin was indeed a traitor to a European dictatorship, and would have been executed if caught.

He's getting a trial. He's been charged with a crime. RTFA.

Got turned down for your grant, eh? I can smell jealousy a mile off.
