I see a problem with this. I knew people who moved to America from Brazil, worked at McDonalds for a few years, and went home rich. If we Americans go to India to work we'll be stuck there because we won't be able to afford to move back.
So the editors can't see a reason other than spying to track one's spouse? How about because you care about them and you want to make sure they're OK at all times. If you have to ask yourself if your spouse is cheating on you, then maybe you are not in a good relationship.
How many people out there who run web browsers have added their user to the local Administrator group or just log in as administrator? Heck, you have to run IE as an admin just to apply updates. IMHO I think running Firefox as a non-root user on unix is more secure than firefox/IE on windows.
You havn't shown by experiment that you dont have insubstantial invisible wings. Or an astral 3rd eye. Or an invisible 6' rabbit following you. Or something called a soul. Or an astral body. Or the ability to read people's minds. There are a million imaginary things you cannot show.
You and the other poster have missed entirely what I was getting at. I was not saying that there is a soul. Nor was I saying that the soul's existence must be disproved before one can say it doesn't exist.
What I am saying is that the we don't know what makes something alive yet and by extension conscious. And to me, the soul is just a label we apply to that which we don't know yet. So until you can tell me exactly why I am me one can't say that there is or is not a soul.
The "soul" is a human concept brought about to overcome the fear of death.
I think it is broader than that. It is a concept to explain the unknown, not just death, but why am I alive. What makes me, a pile of matter, alive, and a pile of rocks not alive? Is what makes me, me just the millions of brain cells working together, or is there something else. I don't know that there is anyway to tell, and so, unfortunately, is a belief held by the individual.
The soul doesn't exist, there is only conciousness.
I am not disagreeing with you, but you would have to qualify that as "I believe the soul doesn't exist". You might be right, but you can't point to any experiment that proves it, so to say it definitively is a bit of a stretch.
From your post it sounds like you can't find your way out of a paper bag without a <right-click><properties> at your disposal.
A) Having to recompile kernels/worrying that apps will be broken by upgrading that kernel.
I recompile the kernel all the time because of either kernel updates or because I need an additional feature without breaking any apps. This statement is crap.
C) MAN pages do not cut it.
Man pages do their job perfectly. They are for reference, not for reading like a manual. You should already be familiar with the program and you use the man pages for remembering what a command line argument does. It is like the dos help program, only much much better. If you are looking for a manual that reads like a book you are looking for info pages.
Maybe it was full when he started the project, but those pictures look like it is only half full. I guess screwing the motherboard standoffs into the bottom of the aquarium wasn't such a good idea after all.
Sadly, the Linux version of Firefox cannot be updated automatically despite the apparent need for daily updates.
What are you talking about? That's what emerge is for.
Oh, I forgot. Not everyone compiles Firefox themselves. I often have the new Firefox built on my Gentoo systems before the windows version tells me a new version is available.
There is no DRM on the PDF and I do not share my copy. However, as I understand it, magazines usually make their money from the advertising and not so much from the subscription price. The PDF is the complete magazine, ads and all, so I would think it would be in their best interest to have it re-distributed as far and wide as it will go without having to pay for that distribution. I could be wrong though.
I pay for a subscription to Circuit Cellar online and every month I get to download a PDF of the actual magazine. I wish every publication would do this as it is very convenient and doesn't clutter up my house.
and analogous situations (e.g. A Private Little War) to help put current issues into perspective.
I don't want to watch Sci-fi to put current events into perspective. That is what The Daily Show is for. I want series long plot development, not episode long one offs. When Enterprise started out I thought it kinda sucked. The season long story about the Xindi was good because it was continuous. This is why Babylon 5 was really good. Firefly looked like they were heading in this direction too, just not enough episodes to find out.
Even though it is far less toxic than its compounds, elemental mercury still poses significant environmental pollution and remediation problems due to the fact that mercury forms organic compounds inside of living organisms.

At least for the next 3 years. Reagan said back in '84 that the ISS would be a reality in 10 years. 20 years later it's only partially completed.

obviously. Because if you were paranoid you would have deleted windows.

Microsoft refers to this as "a business plan for generating recurring revenue".

So the most important question is how big does my sign have to be?

Did you not even read the article you linked to?
Thank you for spoiling it for me. I guess I don't need to give my money to Lucas now.
It's almost like a self sustaing chain reaction. Oh wait, that's fission.
