If you leave your front door wide open and a neighbor comes over and uses your bathroom, then leaves is it a crime ?
Uh, trespassing? If I go around and try and bilk old ladies out of their retirement funds, is that a crime? Just because people are gullible and stupid (unsecured networks) doesn't make it your right (or make it legal) to take advantage of that.
Those items have license restrictions associated with them. Just as when purchasing any other piece of software, when you buy an X you agree to the terms of the license.
The only thing I agreed to was that they could take $200 out of my account. I didn't sign a goddamn thing. Fuck their "license."
That reminds me of the time I was in this arcade in my neighbourhood when I was young. It was a pizza place too, and it must have been a slow day, because the only guy there was playing 1942. Anyway, the phone rang, and he's like "cover my game for me!" I rush over, and start playing. He's on level 362882, with the giant boss that completely fills the screen. I had played 1942 a couple times before that, but I wasn't that good. I killed his remaining 8 guys, and left before he came back.
How 'bout love, happiness, clean air, good food, good music? With maybe the exception of food there, I don't think you can really have enough of the others.
I remember last time this was on/. I looked around for a Canadian version, and there is one (national DNC list). I signed up online, and within a couple months, the number of calls trailed off noticibly. No idea where I found it, but google probably knows something. It did help.
From http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MzEw: As Barton and MP were mentioned, I did think to ask what [Richard Heye, AMD Vice President of Platform Engineering and Infrastructure and the Computation Products Group] thought about the threat of Intel's Hypertheading. While I see Hyperthreading as possibly becoming a very useful add-on for the Intel CPU, I can assure you that Richard Heye does not. In fact, the subject of Hyperthreading seemed to excite him. Mr. Heye explained that he had been reading papers on the subject for years and that for Intel to bring Hyperthreading to market successfully, they (Intel) were going to have to throw many more dollars at the marketing side than the development side of the issue.
I've been reading about the same thing (retina-mapping), but for creation of personalized contact lenses that fit the exact shape of your eye. Same super-human vision, but without the surgery.
Well, saying things like "Very few people realize that Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows ME (all closely related to each other) were designed to crash." is pretty moronic. It's kind of hard to take the rest of it seriously.
Patch 1.02:
Fixed an issue that allowed players to abuse dragons with Devour.
Fixed an issue with dragons that could cause them to divert attacks.
Patch 1.01c:
Fixed an issue with copy protection for certain DVD drives.
Patch 1.01b:
Fixes a problem where players were disconnected from a game as it was starting and thus getting a loss.
Patch 1.01
Fixed an issue with control group selection.
Fixed an issue with Observers On Defeat option causing games to end when an observer would quit.
Fixed an issue with preselection events and Fog of War.
Fixed an issue with spacebar events working when the game was paused.
I do agree with you though, it does seem quite a bit better than some past releases. The 6-month beta probably helped quite a bit.

Its no different than the shrink wrapped license with any other piece of software
... which aren't enforceable anyway. That's the point.
Yeah, with flies coming out of it! Flies like, umm, "honey," right?

Too much love can be stifling. Too much happinines can make you ungaurded and easy to hurt.
I feel sorry for you if you really believe that.
too much clean air can lead to hyperventilation.
Breathing too quickly, maybe, which is something different.
too much good food can lead to obesity.
Sure, depending on your metabolism.
too much good music can lead to deafness.
No, that's volume.
moral to the story: any positive can become a negative if you try hard enough.
Why do you have to try? That's exactly the point.
Timing is everything.

Didn't Kenny die like that too one time?

Hey, when your stock price is shit, it can only go up, right? Or get delisted, but don't tell him that...
And make sure you do it in that order. Otherwise, you might disappear and all this wonderful crypto knowledge would be lost forever!

Wow, KDE 2 is out?! I'll have to pick that up.

How about Kooltuo? That would fit in nicely.
