Indeed, I agree with you. If there's an appropiate password recovery procedure, however, there should be no need of backdoors. Even when there are, they should be safely limited to, say, console access.
Does Europe have a flag, anyway? Ok, so I'm showing off my ignorance, but if the European Space Agency plants a flag on the moon, which flag will it be?
Productivity will come to a halt, and innovation will be stagnant for 10-15 years as a result.
Are you for real? That's quite a "doomsayer" prediction.
A corporate IM solution will have the option to limit who you can connect to (ie, no one outside the company). Those whose productivity comes to a halt, will be the same people that spends all day chatting with co-workers over other means: telephone, water cooler, whatever.
What about exim? By default it runs as non-root and it's *very* easy to set up. I gave up sendmail about a year ago for it and I have never had any trouble with it.
Why could they not just let the books rest as the king of fantasy litterature ?
Do you really need an answer to that? You gotta milk the franchise for all its worth while the fans are buying. Just take a look at the sudden surge of superheroes movies.
Yet another Starcraft/Warcraft/Dune2/whatever RTS clone. Only with a Tolkien theme! (oh, joy!)
So, this game will be about mining resources, building barracks, "buying" soldiers, researching upgrades and rushing attacks... nothing new to see here.
Geez, did you only lean your feet? I wight close to 180 pounds and I once stood on a mini tower with no adverse effect. Even if you weight twice as much, your case shouldn't have suffered much unless it was extremely flimsy.
But what would be a more pressing need for this to take place: hardware muscle or bandwidth?
Sometime ago, someone (can't remember who) came up with a tar pit for the nimda virus and one of the warnings I remember was that this was very bw expensive.

I undertip them, and call the pizza shop to tell them it was cold
Bad, bad, bad idea. You fail to realize that he is the one that handles your food moments before you eat it. If you undertip and report them, you'll probably have a couple of extra "toppings" on your pizza next time, no charge.
A good auto mechanic should be able to work on foreign and domestic vehicles
Except in this case, the cars are quite disimilar. One is petrol based internal combustion engine, the other is an electric car. They both do the same job, the internals will probably require different kind of mechanics.
I understand that the goverment can declare something classified for defense purposes (or somesuch). Haven't they done this with books and research. Could they declare classified a pice of GPL software for "national security reasons".
I don't live in the US, so its a bit of a gray area for me.
LOL!!! If I told that to a customer, I would be out of the door by the end of the day!
Customer: Is this wireless network secure? Me: What OS are you using? Customer: WinXP Me: It doesn't matter, you will never be secure! Customer: *YOUR* job is to make me secure! Me: Unless you agree to let me change your OS that's not going to be possible. I can't perform miracles. Customer: I want to talk to your supervisor!
time passes...
Supervisor: I had a complaint today. Please clean up your desk.
Sucks to be me... at least I'm not in customer service anymore.
Can someone kindly explain why I should pay more money to upgrade from 2000 to 2003 when 2000 does more that i need and i can get Open office which also does more than i need for free.
You shouldn't, unless you need document compatibility with people who use a more recent version and can't be bothered to "save as..." a previous file format.
I was quite happy with my Office 97 until they made me upgrade to Office 2000. Didn't cost me a dime, but I haven't really used any new features. In fact, the first thing I did was turn off autocorrect and those squigly red lines.
How many balding executives have you seen in Corvettes (or whatever) trying to impress the ladies?
As a balding man (not quite there yet, but you should see my father and grandfather... ouch) I take offense in your implication that we need a Corvette to impress the ladies.
All women know that a shiny head is a sign of high testosterone, and of course high sexual performance!
So if we ever wanted to impress the ladies, we will just take off our hats/head rugs.
Seriously, who didn't expect this idea to tank?? An overpriced scooter with far too embarrasing publicity stunts and too much pre-production hype for it's own good.
I don't get it. Why do so many people have a beef against the Caps Lock key? I don't use it that much, but there are times when it is useful. Eg, I type my titles and section headings in ALL UPPERCASE.

Would you mind telling us how is it done? Or point us to a reference url?
Thanks.

Kind of like how Hugh Jackman can hack into the DoD from a computer he's never touched before in Swordfish.
Keep in mind that they had the advantage of not being "serviced orally" while they were at it.

A literature prof once told me never to get in a fight with a journalist: they control the media and they tend to stick together.
I don't think he'll see jailtime. At most he will get a suspended sentence. Otherwise, other journalist will raise hell.

Volvo's swivelling headlights?
Didn't Tucker came up with those?

Isn't your pacmeaker a computer already? Perhaps you meant a networked computer regulating your body functions.
Dude, where's the link???

You mean this?
I dunno, but that thing looks real ass backwards to me. Reminds me of an old Atari 800.
