Maybe someone could make it painless to make them feel the pain? I get what you're saying, but I generally don't have teh time to exact revenge on the spammers (and there are a lot of them, which doesn't help.) maybe if someone could write a outlook/evolution/pine/whatever app that could be triggereed by a filter:
which would launch a script that does what you describe? I understand whatyou've done, but can't be bothered. Most people won't even understand what you have done, but they would understand a "put-the-hurt-on-this-spammer" button.
Years ago (about ten) I wrote an article in which I coined the term "tech-know-nots". It didn't catch on, though - since Microsoft didn't discover the internet until the year after.
I'm pretty sure the server can keep the gun in shared memory, so only the trigger has to be sent from the server to the client, which then returns the bullet.
Unless of course it is a concealed weapon, in which case an expose event must be triggered...
but if you were Microsoft's Lawyers, what would you do?
Pay the kid his 10 grand and leave him alone. Oh wait, I'm a laywer - i will make more than 10,00 off of MS by pushing this case. Yeah, I'll do that...
Ha. When someone ripped off the CD player in my Hyundai Elantra, they assholes cut the main wire harness, so my car was in the shop for a while (since driving with no lights is no fun.)
The insurance company supplied me with a Neon as a rental.
I have never driven such an awkward car. I hated every minute. I couldn't see anything, when you opened the passenger door, it hit the curb, and although it had nearly as many horses as the Elantra (not quite) it was a lot heavier, so it felt like I was riding a brick.
So - don't ask me not to knock the Neon. It is in fact one of my favorite past-times.
actually, some people may not know what an.exe is. or they may assume it is just a mis-named zip. or something. there is nothing wrong with pointing out that the file at the link provided is platform specific. I also don't find it insulting to say "some other OS." He probably is not using Windows. It's not like he said "some other CRAPPY OS".
If there's anything worse than ia troll, it is someone hunting imaginary trolls.
AT&T sold all rights on the source code in question to Novell, who then sold it (with strings) to the company that is now SCO.
In fact, they sold the rights (with strings) to the company that used to be SCO. It is the company that is now SCO that used to be Caldera that bought the rights from the company that used to be SCO.
I guess the question is, how much did Samsung and iRiver pay for this article?... and was the review unit Samsung gave them the same as the one's you buy in the store?
Hey, if you don't like the affect of English spelling history, you can just immigrate to some place where they speak Canadian.
Like up in here in Canadia?
fwiw, I was watching British comedian Jimmy Carr the other night on TV, and he used the following bit:
"You might be wondering where I am from considering my accent. Although you could say I don't have an accent at all. I am from England, this is what English sounds like when it is pronounced correctly."
Yes, I believe he has made an illicit use of the word "illicit". Wwould it be reasonable to assume that it was this illicit used that did ellicit your comment?
... because Microsoft is seriously needing to promote it's next OS as a phallic symbol, it chose the name "Longhorn". I believe they got hte idea from their friends at Disney, with the Lion King's "Pride Rock".
This is a developer site, not a marketing splash. Developers want information, not pretty presentions.
I suppose that's how Enlightenment came to be?
I think you are so wrong - the industry has shown over and over again that it is proper marketing that builds mindshare. Microsoft themselves have used that strategy to outmanouvre their competitors, just as they are now being outmanouvered by Apple (and others).
Even "developers" like us can be distracted by pretty lights and funky music.
Xouvert has declared "solidarity with the Y project", but what does that really matter. The future of the linux(+*bsd) desktop is X, just not XFree86. Either Xouvert, or some other fork of the XFree86 code, but the XFree86 leadership have shown that they are not interested in making a better X.
Wow. It's obvious that you've been following this really closely. Bloat like updated drivers, bugfixes, and other fetures that everyone else has certainly do not belong in XFree86. I hope the XFree86 developers stick by their guns and refuse evil bloatware like back-buffers, vector graphics, and portability.

New sourceforge project, anyone?
Have you watched that stinker? I think it's Eastwood that should be sued...

You forgot The Ent Christmas Special.
For example, we have movie theater which not only serves beer, but also has had open 802.11b access for a long time.
This seems awful convenient for uploading a cam of the latest flick before it's even finished screening...
or perhaps "What the FAAAQ?"

it just always has to come back to either sco or micorsoft. or both. gah!

Does that even make sense?
Do you mean the midi should be looped, or do you mean that I should be looped?
I expect to see cels and clones of cels ...
or is that cels of clones?
