Why upgrade a server if it still works?

"Many war movies are saved by the young private who (like Huang) is willing and able to tinker."
Although most are saved by extensive use of special effects, and bags of red liquid which splish and splash when detonated by small amounts of industrial explosive.
I'm sure I read - years ago now - about people having similar problem with arcade games of the '80s. Such as Defender/Asteroids addicts reaching for the smart bomb or hyperspace button when they were about to hit another car. Scary.
So don't think of it as extra work. When you post something about someone, make sure you make a mental note that "I may have to post little message or a link or something next to this, later".

Not sure but I flew back to the UK from the States the other day and was told that obeying the attendants requests (turn your phones off) was a federal requirement, so perhaps there is some standard fine/punishment which has nothing specific to do with planes? You`d need to ask an American.
"until ARCAM or NAD or any of the decent HiFi manufacturers make an audiophile's mp3 player I still don't think it will match CD."
Some hifi manufacturers sell cd players which support MP3 but you can't polish a turd. MP3s will always suck next to CDs (even CDs are pretty poor next to the next gen sound sources).
This was mooted at least 6 years ago. In the incarnation I heard, people swapped details with people in another time zone, so that while one person was asleep/at work, someone else in another country could occasionally check a webcam image in the corner of their screen. The two people need not know each others name or exact location, if they were worried that the person watching would take advantage of knowing when the watched person was home.
"To my knowledge, these are the only live experiments that have been located and identified," said Bruce Buckingham, a NASA spokesman at the Kennedy Space Center.
This of course means that the Space Monkeys have escaped!

You're talking about freaks,hippies,liberals, proletariat etc as if they actually exist, rather than just sloppy shorthand media creations that mean nothing. Some `people` are creative, and some aren't. Some make good albums. Some don't. I wouldn't get too hung up on labelling things (maaan - quick, allocate me a label!) - they're no use, and end up making it harder and harder to deal with reality as you frantically try and bend and twist it to fit into your neat little boxes.

Yeah, I mean you pay them so much money, right? I think you should ask for a refund.

Exactly.

It's chilling because it says that people have to take responsibilty for their actions. Some people don't like that.

Or that there's smoke coming out of all four funnels when one of them was there solely to provide air to the engines below.

Well, there's no such thing as luck. So it's not that.

Why would I want to subscribe? I`d rather wait for the spelling mistakes to be corrected, links checked and reposted etc.
Hehe.. "Dover for the continent...Bournemouth for the incontinent"

Damn straight. Even so, it sounds like you could have corrected those amateurs Bach and Chopin when it came to naming songs.

Still, 1 out of 10 for mentioning a great album!
"underprosecuting the real pirates (i.e. manufacturing and distributing copyrighted material)?"
If the industry is losing more sales due to online piracy than counterfeiting, then they ARE the real pirates!
That'll give those tree-hugging hippies something to think about. Maybe we oughta kill all the whales too, just to be safe?
Perhaps now is a good time to ban all reporting of any criminal-law case until conviction? No conviction, no identification.
Naaah, that's too much like common sense!
Sharing? "For the good of the people", right? That's the point of the copyright laws in the first place, at least in the States.
When you download MP3s...etc
OK, but does it jack the price up more than you`d pay for Sonys proprietary ram? How about Firewire - they don't need a PC involved?
