I was scrolling along and first shock - able to connect to Windows NT Server:S - ok ok. Still scrolling and i see StarOffice 6.0 can save, edit and blah blah MS-Office Documents in their native format - does that mean to say
Lindows: lookie here suckers - this wont run MS-Office well and we hate MS and so does Sun - so why dont u pay for StarOffice for Lindows (hyukhyuk) although you can pirate MS-Office for free.
User: Hey thats a great idea!
As of 1.0, Mike (the CEO) replied to my email that games wasnt high on their list and they would consider it soon.
I have been keeping track of their inventory flow roughly over the last few months - they were dumping stuff to ubid and the geeky hardware sites giving great deals on V-tek stuff - no surprise sir:)
i will make this short - you are wrong about lines - and i had a 10.0/10.0 - think before you post people.

When i am in the thick of action - fragging opponents in Unreal Tournament at a mad pace and protecting the flag at my teams base - or crouching down with the German machine gun in MOHAA to take out the Allies coming towards me in a multiplayer game and crouching in a dark corner to reload - my reflexes are sharp - they better be or i am dead meat.
Also when playing UT for long periods(~2hrs+) or looking around in eerie corners of System Shock2, my hands become cold and almost the darkest shade of red and my face becomes so hot and to me the world ends and starts with the game in front of me - phone calls are ignored - door rings are ignored when i am in a clan battle - the PC is checked and double checked before those crucial games - and the reflexes have helped me in real life (trust me)...ok back to GTA3.
...for peaceful purposes From the article The Demonstrator-2 blasted off from underwater, aboard the Ryazan submarine in the Barents Sea, into orbit on a converted Volna SS-N-18 intercontinental ballistic missile, the Russian navy said in a statement.
Well now if all nations on Earth used their missiles for peaceful purposes, we wont be needing those treaties:)
Ronadlo erased the memories of the last world cup where he was unable to play thanks to an unwelcome fit. Teamwork won them their cup though.
About the champion being needing to qualify, i think thats good, since you see what happened to France..coming to the world cup having qualified and played as a team helps them in their campaign rather than come in from a dozen different clubs and expect to bulldoze the opposition.
Alright bums are people unless you started calling other beings "bums" as well but you know how it is - i know of several undergrad kids who call themselves bums
No wait - i know what they were expecting - a drug cartel, a casino and a mall - boy it sure hurts and disappoints when all you find is a couple of bums and not people.
Alright that was a little attempt at irony - are we having another slow day here ? We can talk about WorldComm or perhaps about the upcoming issue of Playboy which has an "infotech administrator" and "datebase admin" among a group of ten women from Enron (i hear tongues now:O ) or perhaps someone could post how Orbitz is being seen as a potential monopoly that could airline travel in the near future.

From the article
This is hardly the first time that Hollywood and other DMCA proponents have won in court. A federal judge in New Jersey tossed out a case brought by Princeton University computer scientist Ed Felten, who claimed legal threats made by the recording industry unconstitutionally chilled his right to free speech
Is that something that Hollywood would be celebrating - this smells bad - real bad.
But the underdogs will always come out trumps..i mean seriously these companies are not making more money but can't someone make that "legit" - i mean take the Windows Operating system...DVD tools galore.
Now we will have people fighting more than ever for water and Uncle Sam : *cough cough* All your oceans are belong to me *cough cough*. China : Fuck that small country we want all the water around it and India is going to be a regional superpower *cough* and United States of America will have a new state Antarctica...sheesh am i getting unreal?
The Ornitech company of Warwick, NY happens. These kids went to a bank to open a business account where they were told by the manager that they were only 15y. But these guys went ahead and have since shipped hundreds of ornithoper kits. BTW, an ornithoper is a contraption that flies by flapping it's wings.

heres the kids's site. Its a nice thing that they could get online, atleast for the kids.
I personally have come across a 13year child when i was 20y and she claimed to be 18y and would drool and sigh all day as i listened to her as i coded some crap
One day she said her little brother was dead by drowning in the tub - very obvious that she was loving the attention - and to think for a few mins. i was so concerned and then i had to coax her out her father's name...the emails she used to send me had her last name and traced her static IP to a state in the eastern US and used www.switchboard.com hoping to get a hit which i did and called her mom up and gave her a short lesson in how to raise kids.
The scary part was she did actually have an infant brother and she might have actually done something to him. Before you say the kids need to do something more productive, i would put the entire responsibility on the parents.
The site's home page bears a disclaimer saying it is not affiliated with the law school.
Mr. Dorhauer has studied the law of domain names and said he was confident he would prevail. Legal experts who have inspected his Web site said he had a good case.
Ms. Esman said the school had made a mistake in asserting that Mr. Dorhauer aims to make money from the site. "They do seem to be focusing their complaint incorrectly on commercial uses," she said. "He's not offering any services whatsoever
Well it looks like the school should have talked more to the young man before suing him outright - after all he wasn't making pennies and he did have a disclaimer that his site has nothing to do with the law school
