I should've been clearer, but that's what I meant- iTunes stops playing when the user who's running it isn't the user who has the focus of fast user switching (although the rest of the apps keep running, as designed). Therefore, it can't be done, at least with OS X 10.3.4 + FUS + iTunes 4.6.
iTunes stops playing when it's owner isn't logged in on my PowerBook, so that won't work. Not a bad idea, though, and if it's super important to you, you could run virtual OS's on your machine, each with iTunes playing. VirtualPC + Win32 iTunes?

I guess it means that you're an individual, and thus your personal musical quirks, like most random pecadillos, don't tell random slashdotters a damn thing about anything.
But I nailed the 80's thing, right?

That after you graduated in the 80's (but not from the 80's), you made a playlist and then your 12 year old daughter fucked it up. HTH. HAND.
Actually, it took... my um, friend... about 3 hours on bittorrent, in the meanwhile, um- he, my friend, played with GIMP and still found it to not be worth the re-learning curve. But it does work, should you want to conform to society's scruples.
Yeah, that's all warm fuzzies until you wake up terrified at night, after realizing that in the Planet of The Apes future, your data will be worshiped as the foundation of a religion and taught to little chimp children, with disasterous concequences.
When the natives demand that the location of their island remain off the map so that the hurricanes can't find them, then it's perfectly acceptable to root for the hurricane.
Well at least the pee bucket was near their seats. I have to get up and go halfway across the building if *I* want to take a whizz. Hmmmm.... pee bucket...

Well, I'd hire OJ for my "Stabbing White Girls" side business, but he's on the other side of the country, in Florida. If I ever expand into a SWG chain though, FL will be my first stop, to capitalize on the obvious talents of Mr. Simpson.
I spend hours locking down the box, turning off their permissions, setting up virus and spyware scanners with automatic updates and run-times and admonished them to run Firefox. Took a long time.
They still got infected. I still got calls. LOTS of calls. "Slow!" "Hijacked homepage!" "radioactive monkeys!" etc.
Then I got them a used G4. Works a charm. They're happy, I'm happy, the web is safer for them and from them.
We did have a blood bath long ago. It was called the Revolutionary War. I hear those guys were good shots, too. Even wrote some funky rules to make sure that it could happen again if needed.
Actually, the best way to spot idiots on slashdot is to scroll down. Now if you offered a way to identify the comments worth reading, now that'd be something, but spotting idiots on slashdot is trivial.
I think it's pretty clear that Linus is Dorothy. I'm sure he can sing, and some people might find him pretty in an ugly sort of way. He's the next gay icon!
Speaking as an American, that's a very valid point. American soldiers are taught how to kill lots and lots of people while keeping themselves and their squadmates in more or less one piece. That's it. "Peacekeeping" missions run counter to what these men and women are trained to do. I would suggest that instead of asking the military to perform a job that they're sigularly unsuited for, to instead set up a seperate branch for those sorts of missions.
I want to strangle the idiots here in California who think the military should help out with border patrol- another mission that the military simply isn't equiped or trained to handle. Unless you want to destroy relations with Mexico after a few soldiers got zealous with their M-16.
It's almost as if the game rating system, and even the people that label games aren't perfect! What next? We'll have to raise our own children? We'll have to actually spend time with them? We'll have to play the game before them, or along with them, explaining anything that might damage their fragile little minds (like, say, ANYTHING that plays on the 6 o'clock news)?
This travesty of justice should not be allowed to perpetuate. I paid good money for my one eyed babysitter, damn it!

Mowing dirty words into the lawns of people I don't like. Just because it's petty vandalism doens't mean it's not a crime.

I don't think you realize just how little weight the constant whinging of thousands of nerdlingers carries in the mainstream citizenry.
If Microsoft picked on FOSS, they'd look like bullies- nobody would even think to say, "but look, slashdot was mean to them!" Except, apparently, you.
You defraggled your motherdisk? Awesome!

I don't think you're getting enough friction. Use a bit less lotion and the fire will start.

I played a game pretty much like this (with less stellar graphics, of course) on my C=64. I think it was one of EA's "Blank Construction Set" titles.
