On the contrary, I wouldn't mind seeing more military war simulations being done on supercomputers; so long as they are carried out as an alternative to actual military war.
Wasn't that a Star Trek episode? I don't think it turned out very well...
These look amazing,
but are they coming to Canada?
I saw them in Vancouver a couple weeks ago. It was only a mall kiosk, though, so they may have been imported. Didn't really pay much attention at the time...
Never mind, I get it. Oddly enough, I didn't get the error message, or the website pop-up. It must have been my security settings. In hindsight, this would explain why I got an "Allow Script?" dialog when there were no IE windows open...
Actually, it affects KazaaLite users, too. Remember, the only difference is that the spyware has been removed. Any security loopholes present in one are bound to be present in the other...
In addition to eating up free disk space Benjamin takes additional actions: under the name of the infected computer's owner it opens an anonymous web site from which it displays advertising banners. This way Benjamin's creator profits by the resulting increase in advertising displays.

Can this truely be considered ignorance? Wouldn't it rather be a matter of theology?

Oh, you would eventually.
Wretch.
Small problem.
Tech-toys takes resources.
Do you think there are enough resources on Earth to support a population of ten billion people living the American lifestyle?
Yes? Really?
How much damage do you think the extraction of those resources would cause? Hmm?
Overcrowding, if it is really possible to overcrowd the Earth,[...]
Bahahahahaha! You poor, naive fool.
Our population [...] is not growing at a rate that outstrips our ability to exploit natural resources.
Too bad the the natural resources themselves aren't increasing to match.

Why? Did they store them on top of IBM monitors?
...growing up on Prince Edward Island. How was I to know that Bud the Spud was a medic, too? Would have helped the doctor shortage...
My sympathies to you, sir.
You can probably find something here.
