Well when you don't have a choice to install the software and it's going to be there on every Desktop because of that then you need a way to prevent people from running it. Given that Solitaire and the other games can be removed or not even installed some things can not be such as cmd.exe. Yeah you could make a custom image with that command removed but then what happens when a program that an Administrator installs uses scripts during installation that are executed through cmd.exe? Using GPOs let's you select (similar to ACLs) who can and can not execute a command when all else fails.
Hey, our secretaries are actually better off using Linux, because we don't want them playing solitaire.
I guess those people never heard of implementing GPOs in Windows 2000 to prevent users from executing files that management didn't want them to execute. If they are using Win9x/ME on the users' machines then they have bigger problems than not being able to implemeint GPOs.

I never said I was Amish. I can still use technology and I'm in the CS program at a local college. I can see that if you had the chance your personal thoughts would turn into illegal persecution. (killing by burning alive) However I'm not a witch. I don't practice paganism, satanism, or witchcraft.
Explanation: Trying to find a pattern in a world created by God and realizing that things are more complicated than that reminds us we are all still human and don't know shit.

It says that MS programmers do their coding as their job and OSS programmers do their coding as a hobby in most cases and have to do their real job as a first priority and only code when their family has been taken care of.
And exactly how much did you have to pay for the licensing of Win2K server? How many CALs did you purchase for your users? How many security updates have you had to download? How many did not work after installation?
3DO was too expensive so we had good reason not to. The Jaguar had no good games and the ones that were supposed to be good never were released. And I can't speak for the TurboGrafx 16.
As a side note, I owned a Jaguar and loved the Tempest 2000 and Iron Soldier games.
I had to travel to Oak Ridge, TN for work and I was going to use Yahoo for driving directions. It kept finding Oakridge, TN which is in the western part of the state and Oak Ridge is in the eastern. I even used the zip code for Oak Ridge and it still kept making Oakridge be the one that was used. I emailed them about it but got an automated response. I used Mapquest and they were able to distinguish between the 2 towns just fine.
Is a quantum leap the smallest possible discrete change?
Actually, the Planck leap would be the smallest possible discrete change. It's really a matter of with a quantum leap the technology changes radically and it also doesn't change radically.
What the heck to Gimp and Sodipodi mean to the user anyway? PHOTOshop and Illustrator both make sense.
GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software suitable for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.
You don't have to shove a gun in someone's mouth for it to be wrong and unconstitional. You already admitted you'd be be "screaming bloody murder" if teachers were to be leading your children in Islamic style prayer.
Only because there is a separation of church and state that a lot of people say means Christianity can't be mentioned and yet Islamic prayer can still be held in class WITH the teacher leading but if it was Christian prayer YOU would be screaming bloody murder. Some people already have when students lead a graduation prayer. Christians are being prevented from prayer but Islamic followers are not being treated teh same way. It's the double standard I don't like.
You are talking about denominations. All denominations (or if you prefer to nitpick I will say "most" to be safe) still believe God is the pinnacle of the Christian religion and believe in the Bible. If they do not then they are not a Christian religion/denomation. So the point is that we are not talking about here anything that would delve into the details separating the different denominations so the question of which "brand" of Christianity could be endorsed is irrelevant because saying "under God", for example, does not favor one "brand" over another because they all believe in the God aspect of the religion. There is no sense in getting into the denominational details and asking which brand I would want the gov't to "endorse" as they are all still one Christian religion.
You tell me I have a problem seeing the bigger picture here if religion is not cut out of the public place or gov't but you fail to see what happens (or actually what is happening) when it is cut out.
Having a religion never hurt anyone as long as you are not a fanatic about it and think Allah/God tells you to kill someone. But you have a problem with just because the government is making religious references that it's just such a bad thing. Why is such a bad thing to have faith in something? I know, it isn't your faith. Well, would it help if the gov't made references to every religion everytime they did something along those lines? Not that they will though. I know you don't want the gov't to favor one religion and they are not. They are reflecting what the public as a majority favors as their religion and as the main religion throughout this country's history. Favoring a religion would mean they are telling you to have this certain religion and if you didn't you would lose something because of it. That isn't happening. Your rights have not been violated and mine haven't either actually.
The bigger picture if this elimination of religion continues that you fail to see is that more immoral and sinful things will happen. Murders will rise, children will be more violent and not have any sense of what is right and wrong. That's just the beginning. It doesn't take a genius. WHen you have a religion, whichever one it is, it gives a sense of faith and a moral set of rules. Okay, so you don't want a moral set of rules but don't stop someone else from having any and having the gov't sort of keep that religion out there gives the people a good feeling like they aren't alone out there. Those who do not share the same views do not have to join and they will not be punished because of it. If you were punished then your rights would be violated but as it stands nothing like that is going on.The freedom of religion is still out there. You just don't want to see it because you are too worried about making sure someone else's religion is kept in check. Where is the freedom of religion for those people?

Isn't it better to hear the real actors, and listen to the sounds they make, as opposed to some translated version?
Who needs translated farts and burps?
So now MS can use Ask Jeeves to find the answer to "Where do you want to go today?"

Where does it end? Should I just give them a hair sample now or wait until my implant is required?
I just watched the movie Gattaca last night. Don't scare me with the hair sample thing. That picture of reality is just way to close to that movie.

my question..can they find someone using the DCMA inappropriately?
I wonder what kids are forced to watch in school nowadays
depends on what class they are in but for sex ed. i'm sure its something along the lines of how to put a condom on a dildo

How about a flashing yellow light?
Maybe eventually we just have techs camp out under the poles...
so those old guys with beards, a shopping cart, and a sign finally *did* find a job huh? I wondered what they were doing this whole time.

CIFS=Common Internet File System or as some people call it SMB=Server Message Block. It's the protocl behind Samba.

it's easier for most people, just friends and family and still for others even easier, just family.
