Well one could ease his or her conscience by recognizing that one can not actually buy these movies anymore, in any format. Even in music school we were allowed to photocopy music that was out of print.;-)
"If you have to install stuff that's no in the base distro (which AFAIK apt-rpm isn't) you're already asking more from a first-time linux user than you're likely to get. That sucks, but that's the way it is."
Seeing as how Windows comes with basically no usable sortware out of the box, I don't think it's THAT much of a stretch. The first thing a person installing Windows has to do after getting Windows installed is install a bunch of drivers. After that the software one wants to use, like an office suite, image manipulation, games, whatever it is one wants to use. One isn't usually going to find it on the Windows disk. Granted a lot of this is handled by the PC manufacturer but people do usually end up installing something themselves.
The last couple times I've been to CompUSA all the system asked for was a zip code and I think the cashier just put in the store's zip. He didn't ask me for it.
Jeez, would you drive to the corner if it meant getting you there six seconds faster than walking? Find something else you can do during that six seconds or else read Slashdot when six seconds isn't the difference between having enough time or not.
And I actually had someone yesterday IM me asking if I'd heard about the AOL/MS email tracking software that was going to get him lots of money. I felt kinda bad crushing his dream, but not very.
So in other words, you have to be a bank manager or higher to afford a 3 room flat in the city. Everyone else is barely scraping by in the rural areas.
When I logged into my Yahoo! email this morning I was notified that because I'm a SBC DSL subscriber, I now have a 2GB mail box AND no more graphical ads. I love it already.
If the universe was expanding at the speed of light. It would look pretty dark out there at night. Or at the very least it would be awfully hard to see some of those distant galaxies.
You're moderated as funny, but it makes the point I was going to make. The venders routinely do not ship with a vanilla kernel. I do not believe that RedHat/Fedora is not alone in shipping with a heavily patched and customized kernel. It's hardly forking, it's just the way they package up the kernel.
My sister did this in Middle School. Her succesful egg saving technique was to simply stick the egg inside her toy stuffed bear with a zipper on the back. I think it doubled as some sort of bag.
As it was explained to me once, the geographic region of Britain is made up of Great Britain, Britannia Minor (Ireland), the smaller islands and the region in north France called Brittany. If this is correct (and I make no claims to accuracy) then people from all of Ireland and even northern France could claim the term British for themselves.
Not by Aragorn, I wish I had the book in front of me so I could look it up. There was a particular soldier of Gondor who took Pippin under his wing, so to speak, when Pippin was learning the ropes of his new position. Pippin also spent a fair amount of time with this fellow's son. It was this man who held off the "loyal" servants of Denethor in order to save Faramir, even killing a fellow Gondor guardsman which is an act he is prepared to face the consequences for later. Aragorn as the new King deals with this by seemingly banishing him from Minas Tirith, but it turns out to be a reward as he is made governor or something of Osgiliath. Now my details are getting very hazy but the point is, it was this semi-major character that didn't make it into the movie that saved Faramir. Aragorn DID end up saving a number of people, probably including Faramir with his knowledge of medicine and botanicals.
It'e because the Intergalactic Brotherhood of Protocol Droids (IBPD-AFL-CIO) would universally walk out in protest (or worse complain loudly in 3 million languages), if they were deprived of their hard fought union translating jobs. This is why, despite the fact that every creature in the Star Wars galaxy can understand every other creature regardless of the language spoken, they still have Protocol Droids around translating for them.
Slashdot Mirror
Like I've said, there comes a point where you don't really feel that much colder, it just kills you quicker.

Yeah but . . . what have "In Search Of . . . " and "Reading Rainbow" have to do with Star Trek? ;-)
Hey! I've been there!
Now depending on what parts of it are just like Unix, it may not have that problem. ;-)

Does this mean there are 3 bitches to every star? Are we talking Hollywood here?
Windows running unix code!?! STFU!

Of course, ;-)
Silly me for not even thinking of this option as I work for a very large mortgage lender.

Heh, you're right. Learn something new every day.
Thanks.
Will someone get this walking carpet out of my way!

Except that's probably slated to be the name of AMD's processor at some point. ;-)

The next version of Mandrake will be:
Poison Root Core 1
"Okay, probably not, but . . ."
Eh, I'd say most certainly.
