I'd consider it spamming then, when he places those links where he wouldn't do it without the benefits he gets from them. If it's just something I can barely see in the link itself, I have no problem with this.
What else is it when you think you can ? There are enough cases where men thought they "knew" and did not ask therefore.
If you can't tell...She's not.
I doesn't matter if you think you can or not, as you must know that what you think can be wrong.
Sexual harassment is something entirely different.
No. It may be only accidentally, but if you are wrong in a case you think you don't have to ask, it is just that.
out of the blue
Nobody said something about "out of the blue"[*], and it doesn't have to be a plain "do you want to...?".
If you have to ask...The answer is no. This does not imply the converse
I once heard a woman say something like "the answer is always no until I tell the guy otherwise". So, you 'll have an always-no-problem if you think you don't have to ask.
[*] A friend of mine once, after some pubs on a friday night, approached a woman on the street with the words "Hi! Your place or mine?" She examined him a little, said "your place!" and they left me standing rather astonished. So, the idea is not always bad.:-)
If that was true, it would be easier to get laid for a man than for a woman, because there are more women than men. But a simple reality check reveals that it is in fact much easier for a woman, although the number of possible mates is less.
I'd suggest holding out for some quality women instead of going for the low-hanging fruit...
I guess he came to the latter because the first tactique didn't work for him. And if you are unable to reach the goal you've set, it is really idiotic to hang it even higher instead of somewhere inside your capabilities.
From which parallel universe did you come and how can I get there? In this universe Iran is rules by religious fanatics who conceal this behind democracy-lookalikes like having a parliament (that has exactly no power).
Or do you come from the USA, where they try to make the people believe that their plutocracy was a democracy?
People, do you know what democracy really means? It means that the demos (= the people) rules! But if you look at most of the countries pretending to be democracies, you'll see that who really rules is not the people, but only a small fraction: the politicians and the corp's lobbies, sometimes plus the military and/or religious leaders.
That is the stuff which my dad meant when he said "sometimes the only real art in the work of an artist was to make people think that what he made was art".:-)
I don't assume that. But if the guys who do that assembled such a database, imagine the benefit to the world if everybody had unrestricted access to this database containing the complete knowledge!
Seem nice products, but those guys want $400 for the remote control only, they really can't be sane! And $500 is also way too much for a device that just receives an audio stream over WLAN and feeds it to the speakers.
Because in jail you don't need to worry about how to play the audio files you don't have there. Pirate radio stations tend to be closed very quickly if they are stationery.
The codec problem. Most software like iTunes only works with a limited set of codecs, and my music collection contains MP3, Vorbis, Musepack, FLAC and AAC.
This is also a big disadvantage of all those fancy streaming clients, making them inflexible and much more expensive.
What I'd like to have is:
A client/server solution that can use Foobar 2000 (or anything else that plays all the formats Foobar does) to decode the audio files on the server for the clients not powerful enough or clients without controls (kind of radio).
Selmer Bringsjord is the professor who doesn't believe AI can be intelligent.
How can someone so dumb become professor? At the latest when our computers' complexity have reached our brain's it will have been done, that is obvious!
The more I think about it, the more I come to the conclusion that we simply can't grok the deterministic system "human brain", just because it is too complex. As an excuse, we invented "intelligence".
Interesting: The same applies when you exchange "intelligence" for "religion" and "human brain" for "universe".
I must admit that I've come to a similar method, I have several base passwords like t/E2.p?aFhBO that I alter in one or two positions when forced to change.
You'll be living in a corporate controlled country when you grow up.
This already applies now. But I've almost given up to expect people to grok it even when you smash it in their face. They don't want to see it, because if they did, they'd have to do something about it. It like the blue-or-red-pill decision in matrix, only that most people decide this unconcious.
If they have the money to pay you, that is easy: send your invoice with "to be paid in 14 days after reception". If they have not paid after this time, send them a letter which tells them that they've got one more week to pay, unless they want to pay your lawyer for making them pay, too.

yet you don't think you are link spamming

Kraftwerk is not only "Das Model", in fact JMJ is much more mainstream than Kraftwerk ever was.
This title belongs to Karlheinz Stockhausen . And even if you leave him out, Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream would rank before JMJ. All IMNSHO. :-)
It has nothing to do with arrogance

man divorce
Just as often as men.
If that was true, it would be easier to get laid for a man than for a woman, because there are more women than men. But a simple reality check reveals that it is in fact much easier for a woman, although the number of possible mates is less.
If you have to ask, she isn't
You always have to, unless you want to risk being jailed for sexual harassment, like it happened before to men being that arrogant.
man woman
no manual entry for woman
Yeah, sure, because this is immoral. It has to be
man wife

Apple makes everything better
iTunes is not bad, but Apple could easily make it really better:
- support *all* commonly used codecs, which means to add Musepack, Ogg/Vorbis, Monkey's Audio and FLAC support.
- remove the annoying disability to copy music from the iPod!
There is one huge problem with all those stuff:
The codec problem. Most software like iTunes only works with a limited set of codecs, and my music collection contains MP3, Vorbis, Musepack, FLAC and AAC.
This is also a big disadvantage of all those fancy streaming clients, making them inflexible and much more expensive.

as you know we non americans cannot access darpa.mil
I only know that I sit in Germany, am not using a proxy except the one in the basement here, and have no problem accessing http://www.darpa.mil.
What was your problem again?
compiling the majority of human knowledge into a gian database
This would be really great if everyone became access to it.
I think that such a project should not be lead or even only influenced by the military. Give it to the UN and let the whole mankind build and use it!
Yes, it encourages them to change it like this:

Superstition and common sense mixed together with a massive dash of fanaticism.
Isn't that what most of all this religious stuff is about?
getting people to pay him in an orderly fashion
If they have the money to pay you, that is easy: send your invoice with "to be paid in 14 days after reception". If they have not paid after this time, send them a letter which tells them that they've got one more week to pay, unless they want to pay your lawyer for making them pay, too.
