    Maybe they have hyperhidrosis, described as "excessive sweating of the hands, feet, and face, excessive facial blushing, or any combination of these conditions".

    So if you don't turn on sharing you're not at risk? I'm not sure I understand.

    Don't assume anything. You have no idea whether they do or not.

    You can't mod and post in the same discussion. you feel crunchy now don't ya?

    Even better: Assuming the downloader in question was only downloading a couple songs at that time they were logged, the RIAA has no proof that they have any other songs on their computer.

    So, the downloader could go buy the CDs containing the songs they were downloading at that time, securely erase all other song files, and proclaim that its not copyright infringement, they already own the CD and wanted an mp3 version. Seems like it would work to me.

    If they are coming over, why would they still be wearing covers (blanket?)? even if they were, you wouldn't be looking "under" the covers, would you?

  8. Re:LINUX needs to tell apps where they live! on Binary Package Formats Compared · · Score: 1

    I would think that you would have to drag over the editor and the preferences, which are often stored in ~/library/application support/ or ~/library/preferences. It doesn't seem that much easier. And yes, I run Mac OS X exclusively.

    OOH! 2.4 mhz Dell for under $2000! this is excellent! faster than a 2 ghz 64 bit processor though, i doubt it.

    IIRC Even if the president vetos a bill, congress has the ability to pass it if at least 2/3 of them vote for it.

    Well technically there is *some* DRM in the iTMS AAC files, but that can easily be removed by simply burning the file to a cd and re-importing

  13. Re:claimed "iPod killer" features, no proof on Neuros Review · · Score: 1
    Plus, it sounds I could override the radio if someone in the office is playing something crap on theirs chosen station ;)

    Actually, you can only broadcast a couple feet, so it wouldn't be too helpful.

    The deal with the oil is pollution, last time they set 700 oil fields on fire and it cost billions of dollars to clean up. Why should we be concerned with their oil? they provide 3% of the worlds petroleum.

    Whether you put a new OS on it or not, the OS that Apple puts on (which is made by Pixo by the way) will be on before you even buy it. You'll be paying Apple the same amount no matter what you do.

    That is different, people don't buy books to look at the font and the layout all day, they buy them for the literature they contain. With Operating Systems, however, the look and design is often a main reason for choosing one over the other, thus they are very protective of their designs.

    Technically, Mac OS X (which is my only OS at the moment, by the way) is not Unix. It is Apple's version of BSD, which *also* is not unix, but very similar.
