But that doesn't really matter, does it? It takes up less space, for the same amount of user effort, which is really the only important metric in office apps.
Except, they never said it would automatically delete the files, probably for exactly this reason. They're just trying to prevent the defense that you didn't know it was on your computer.
If they can't be heard at a debate, nobody will take them seriously enough for a vote. If somebody could get 10-15% without belonging to either major party, and without being in the official debates, that would be simply amazing. The cutoff should be much lower, in the single digits at least.
The same thing happened to me, but then I looked at the version and realized that I was still running.9.3 on that box. It'll only show the update if you have.10.
Agreed. Our lan club does this, and while the fee is rather steep($20), they use the extra to buy prizes, mainly hardware, which they give out in a lottery.
Exactly. Too many people have connected "download" and "music" with "piracy". This sounds like it would also apply to legitimate files that people are sharing, which the government has no reason to regulate.
It would be nifty if I could "pause" my work at one terminal, and resume it at another in another location.
It's called screen, and available on most unices, iirc. Just run your apps inside a screen session, detach it when you leave, and you can reattach it through an SSH session or whatever later. I use it all the time to check the status of long compiles/downloads from school.
I wonder if it's really good to have your browser tied to a specific webpage like that. If something strange happens, and google goes down, people are going to blame Firefox whether or not it was their fault. That's just off the top of my head, i'm sure less tired people could think of other reasons.
What would be interesting is if they made a browser plugin that would cache and share content. This would actually work better if it was server-side, and had clients automatically redirected to somebody who recently downloaded the page and is running the sharing plugin if the server is heavily loaded. In this case, the server would work rather like a BitTorrent tracker. Instant mirroring of highly trafficed sites, and doesn't require the user to install a plugin.

Heh...as if Microsoft could guarantee stability otherwise.
But wait, wouldn't that mean that they're condoning illegal online activities? Somehow, I don't think that's quite what they want.
It's kind of odd to use a GUI example, isn't it? I would think that making a GUI hello world is a lot more complicated than a normal 'hello world'.
That was a joke. See, because it's a really hilariously stupid thing to do.

But of course you should use slocate(1), since locate also returns other users' files, which is almost always a very bad thing.
And then grepping from index.
Unless your eyes and ears operate independently from the rest of your head, they already market to your brain.

Now, I may be unclear on conservatives here, but if conservatives avoid changes, then wouldn't an absolute conservative do absolutely nothing at all?
We won't necessarily be happier, but we will be smarter. And since when do we turn to technology to make us happier, anyway?
Aargh! I don't get it, but enough other people do that it's +5 Funny. Enlighten me please.
I'm just curious as to how the first moderation to a post can be 'overrated'. I mean, nobody's rated it at all yet, how can you tell?

It only affects media files, right? Hello, uuencode.

So. What's the number of missed spams, times the cost, times zero? And don't say zero!
Maybe you should explain that to the lawyers, who are only too happy to sue for extraordinary amounts that they know the person can't pay.

Why would they stop it? They could use it, to get recordings from the future and then fire all the artists.
