In the future. O'Dorisio said, the consumer will be able to purchase everything from a set of dishes to pocket combs, vases, goblets, ash trays and wearing apparel in the Mold-A-Rama.
"Eric Raymond responds, saying the first steps Microsoft could do are to open their file formats and support open standards"
Response from Microsoft: Um, we wanted to build bridges that didn't involve contribution on our part.
The reason for the closure appears to be the decision by M$ to NOT renew their agreement with RealNames which expires in June
Sounds like another Microsoft ploy to me. M$ likes to keep a tight leash on stupid users, part of what makes the company so successful. Since there are options in IE to do similar feats, why not kill the companies you can, and reap the rewards yourself?
Anyone can guess as to why the twin towers are edited out of movies. Sad as it is, as of 9/11 NY has no twin towers. The movies would not be accurate if they did have them.
As for the Arnold movie, It's called "Collateral Damage". This clearly states it is to be released Feb. 08, 2002. How can you compare a ban on GTA3 in AU to the delayed release of a movie? It's not even on the same level.
Dude, get off your fucking high horse, take a deep breath, turn off the defcon 4 alarm, and FUCKING CHILL OUT!!! I'm sorry you must have ran out of Prozac today but you have to realize to not take things so seriously.
It would be a stupid thing to do, but who the hell cares? Do you honestly think that the email address WON'T get flooded anyway? My reference to signing the address up for porn sites was meerly a dry humor attempt at what I thought emailing the DOJ would do, ABSOLUTLY NOTHING! Perhaps a story on Bill Gates goat screwing your mother would have been more appropriate.
Point is, if you're too self righteous to realize that people have opinions that differ from yours, that they may express these opinions differntly than you would, FUCKING CHILL OUT! It's not the end of the world!
Even if we were to send email to microsoft.atr@usdoj.gov, do you honestly think they're gonna have some monkey go through all the email they get? Even if they do, it's not going to change anything. A good ploy would be for MS to use this as a "Who likes us and who needs to die" check.
I say everyone go to all the porn sites they can find and sign the email address "microsoft.atr@usdoj.gov" up for the mailing lists. For creativity, go to some of the off the wall Scheiße sites and sign the email addy up for their lists. That would approximate my feelings anyway.
That move...is necessary to help "prevent further terrorist acts,"
The article goes on to state
The Justice Department said less than one-tenth of 1 percent of federal inmates are subject to the provision that allows such monitoring. It pointed out most inmates subject to special administrative measure have no relation to the terrorism investigation, spawned by the deadly September 11 hijackings and attacks.
That prevents further terrorist acts, how? By monitoring non-terrorists? I'm gonna go prevent terrorism by washing my car.
I know, "reson" is spelled "reason" and I meant to say "Next thing you know, they'll want to take a monkey up with them".

Maybe there is a reason no one has tried this since 1961... No oxygen, Minus 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Good thing the ballon doesn't have to worry about re-entry. Next thing you know, they'll want to take a money up with them, to "see how it copes with the conditions".

Here's an interesting article about the Mold-a-Rama from the Business & Finance section of the Los Angeles Times, October 29, 1962: http://www.billyseven.net/mar/images/timesarticle. jpg
My favorite part is the final quote:

No... But I'll be adding a wireless keg.

Microsoft says it's "irresponsible" to expect them to get a patch out for a critical flaw within "a few days".
A Microsoft spokesman was later heard saying - "We didn't fix it in the first place, what makes you think we're going to now?"
