hmmm I tried to order some of that viagra but the webesite didn't accept my credit card, which is very wierd because it worked perfecly well when I paid to view the webcams installed in some university's girl showers.
When you go to a doctor and you get a prescription, you get a database entry printed out on a piece of paper. You can walk into any clinic and they can get your records immediately
Now imagine an insurance company somehow get access to this database. Fail an eye test and 2 weeks late your car insurance increases....
But this is a good thing as long as the database is secure and can only be accessed for medical reasons.
I think that's the excuse I will use, too.
me too
I've just started construction of a secret room under my Gran's (she only has a mac) house. It will house all my PCs and of cource Granny will be getting dsl to view goodcooking.com faster on her mac...
We'll go in 3 Ships.
All the lawers, accountents, stock brokers and ceo's who sign up will be sent in the first ship to "uhm" prepare the planet for colonization.
The second ship will contain everyone needed to terraform Mars and set up a colony.
And everyone else will go in 3rd ship.
it would also be nice if MS rereleased its old Windows (like NT, 98) under the GPL so we could play with them.
or if they started writing bug free software
or if the riaa let all its lawers go and hired a bunch of techies to create a working alternitive to its current distribustion system.
the list goes on and on
You'll be in breach of contract and they'll come and get you, because turning up the volume means other people can hear their Audio content aswell, and after all you've only paid for one license.
and write everything in one nice big line:-):-)
Of cource the copy that you keep should be well Commented and nicely formated. Give them something that works but is too ugly to be rused be them.
until AOL releases its latest software with even more cool integrated features (=useless crap that's hard to get rid of or switch of) that is even more poorly writen and buggy than its last...

just because your not paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you
Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds.
I would say women are even worse then men at "going mad and following the herd".
I for one welcome our new spammer overlords.
I think that's the excuse I will use, too.

what about:
all your hard drives are belong to to us.
All the Kids who used to chat on msn will now find "cooler" chat rooms (perhaps IRC) and they might start trying out other non Microsoft products...
So, what happens if I turn up to volume a bit?
You'll be in breach of contract and they'll come and get you, because turning up the volume means other people can hear their Audio content aswell, and after all you've only paid for one license.
I know that in Europe companies can (and often do) patent products just so their competition can't make it. That defenatly doesn't improve inovantion.
But instead of getting better our patent system is turning more and more into a copy of the american.
but the patent system still need a radical revamp
and write everything in one nice big line :-) :-)

Just having a big pile of cash is a wast. Why don't they just invest in something? At least they'd make a profit of that....
