I guess you've never used SMS on the average cell phone? Or tried entering names into a PBX employee directory with a touch-tone keypad? Entering text on a TI-82/83/85/86/89 graphing calculator?
The linked PSP keyboard looks more convenient to me than any of those, or even a thermal adhesive label printer I've got laying around.
If something has a QWERTY layout, you at least automatically know where the keys are. If you don't, then you should be complaining about PC, Mac and typewriter keyboards, too.
You're getting close. But let's replace "copyright" with "Intellectual Property", so it at least pertains to this case.
Actually, we don't even need to limit it to IP. Let's instead refer to "Anything".
In any discussion venue, (meaning, "Not just Slashdot"), Anything is Good when it protects someone the members of the venue like, and Bad when it's used to attack someone the members of the venue like.
That's the hypocrisy of human nature. But no catagory of hippocrits ever seems to tire of criticizing another catagory of being hippocritical.
What the hell does "decadence" have to do with the start of World War I? I always thought World War I was the result German nationalism leading up to the period. Heck...Germany's war plans had been written by Bismark in the 19th century.
Unless, by "Great War", you were referring to some sort of cultural revolution.
If you can find a gig of good 256MB PC100 or PC133 sticks for only $50, I'd probably buy them from you.
Saving up the $50 isn't a problem. It's spending the several hundred on a computer that supports the currently-cheap version of RAM that breaks my checking account.

I imagine using two computer-technician-style grounding straps might work. But it'd also be likely to leave you with some nasty burns and other health issues.
How about a cat triggered by the morning alarm? As soon as mine goes off, my cat walks back and forth, all over my back.
And there's no feeding involved. I think she just wants to escape from the basement for the few minutes it takes me to catch her and put her back downstairs.
You wouldn't be running on hardware that supports the NX bit, would you? Try disabling that protection for Visio. I've heard that some plugins to Office products crash/behave badly with NX enabled.
But are the filters for the subscriber, or the people the subscriber shares the connection with?
Under the guise of them being strictly intended for the subscribers, your argument (and many similar and identical arguments posted) makes sense.
If it's for the people the subscriber shares the connection with, then it doesn't make sense.
For a long time, however, people have been able to get the same functionality by installing third-party software like Net-Nanny et al. The only difference in this case is the state makes the list, and mandates that everyone be able to easily apply it.
It's abusive monopoly behavior. The state is mandating a morality hitlist that is easily applied, kinda like Microsoft mandating that everyone be able to "easily apply" Internet Explorer. They both bundled it with a "must-have" product. That, I have a problem with.
But another interesting question that lurks among the issues: Should the federal government be able to put the behavior of states under conditions effectively the same limitations as monopolies?
Curious that a description of killing a child, in text, is considered less vulgar than killing a child in a movie. (sarcastically) You'd think people no longer believed in imaginations. (/s)

The problem is that their MUA run pif files.
Or that their OS runs PIF files.
*ducks*
Thanks for the pointers.
However, none of my systems will take modules larger than 256MB.
Well, ever since I got a PDA, transcribing my class notes has allowed for some artistic interpretation.
Uh, I don't think the phone numbers on the walls of the Mens room are those of women...

They'd feel something remarkably like an animal sitting on their nightstand.
Then they'd become wide awake. Adrenaline can be such a useful tool...

Not where I am. The sledgehammer we use to pound cement anchor nails is in the next room. It'll only take a few seconds to find it.

I'm not stupid...But I might be a little haywire.
He was looking for par'mach, of course.
No. But I didn't read every message, and eventually stopped reading every subject line.
Don't tempt me like that!
:)
I started by reading just the comment subjects. Then I started opening "Funny" rated comments in new tabs, in the background.
Wish I had a friend whose job it was to overbook flights...Seeing peoples reaction would be a treat.

Actually, that's an excellent description. I might use it in day-to-day conversation. :)
I used the term "vulgar" when I was really looking for the word "graphic."

Jeez...They only had me up to 20mg thrice a day before they realized it wasn't going to work...
Now, than can be described as:
You'll be OK if it ends in an 11.
For that matter, thanks to this guy, you'll be OK if it's prime, too.
