[...] It is better to make a list of safe software which can't compromise an installation [...]
Except that you can't guarantee that the list of software is really safe, just that there are no currently known vulnerabilities.
If at some time in the future a vulnerability is found and a malicious user can just install the application and exploit it to get real root access and do whatever they feel like.
except that it doesn't subvert copyright at all, all it does is allow the installation of unofficial firmware, the signing never prevented copying in the first place...
Ever read the short story Who's Cribbing by Jack Lewis?
A new science fiction writer finds that all his submitted stories are being rejected because they are copies of those published by another writer in the 1930s and 1940s. He does not understand what is happening. When he finally gathers all his letters and rejection slips and tries to publish that, he is told that this, too, was the work of that other author.
While it's sad that the issues weren't addressed back when they were made, closing them nowadays with unmaintained is the proper response to anything related to KDE 3.5, the KDE3 code is unmaintained and they have stated multiple times that there will be no more releases of the KDE3 code base (from the KDE team at least, people are free to fork GPLed software...)

Sure, you can sue anyone for anything. Doesn't mean anything unless you win though, and you might need to find a lawyer willing to help and a judge to hear the case...

... You forgot about the cowboy@neal.com option? (tried for @ne.al, but Albania only allows 3rd level registrations)
I'm trying to figure out how you plan to do those two things consecutively, in that particular order...

Well, at least it wasn't a conspiracy to commit unpremeditated murder...

They make printers out of salt now?
Just to nit-pick a bit, the 85 is not an upgradeable calculator. It's only the ones that are that are affected by this.

In no particular order.
If they change the contract after the fact, it may no longer be binding...

since when is .co.uk a TLD?
Looking right now, I don't see an option when right clicking a tab (or in the window) to open the current tab in its own window.
It does, however, let you move a tab from one window to another by dragging it to the already existing window's tab bar.
the launch of Firefox 3.5 is impeding?
Is Firefox being impeded by the conference, or is Firefox impeding the conference?
Or was it an impending release?
well, I found this: http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/11.10.html#subj1
So, the solution to this is obviously to just install conficker/downadup on your computer. McAfee's site should no longer be available after that.
why bother making a fake address? just give them somegobbledygook@mailinator.com ...
Unfortunately, that skill was left out of the latest revision of the rules.
