While I agree with you that quite a few parents do not pay good enough attention to their kids...
If I'm in a park with my kids and some freak grabs one from behind my back (not likely since one of my tricks is to keep them in front of me), I would like to be able to find out where they are as odds are good they aren't going to be visible.
Personally I prefer Proteus, v4 is out (beta) looks really nice. It's not free or open source but I like it. It's has very similar in features to Adium (-ducks), both use libgaim, I know you can change the ducks...
Having just recently (the past year) switched from Windows I needed something close to Trillian and a year ago Adium didn't work for me, Fire (in my opinion) is ugly so I ended up with Proteus.
eh, you're right. If buying a $3 NIC and calling the purchase an OEM deal is good enough for Microsoft, why should I care.
I found XP Home for ~$85, OEM or ~$72 CD only OEM.
XP Pro is around $130 or $120 CD only.
Realistically, if you are going to compare XP to Panther, you should probably compare Pro as feature to feature that is a better match. Which makes them pretty much the same price or Panther cheaper as Fry's is selling Panther for $109 this week;)
After reading your comment I decided that you don't live in Los Angeles;)
It was proven by a local newscast and admitted by Culver City P.D. that the photo signals in Culver City have the shortest possible yellow cycle allowed by law. They also have the shortest delay from red to violation. Done as you point out to increase revenue.
As it works out, people do slam on the brakes as soon as they see the yellow. I have not seen any accidents, but I have seen many close calls, usually when a person who doesn't drive the area regularly is behind a local.
In the majority of L.A. the chance of speeding during rush hour and messing up the traffic paterns is pretty much non-existant, because well traffic around here sucks.
sftp is an interactive file transfer program, similar to ftp(1), which
performs all operations over an encrypted ssh(1) transport. It may also use many features of ssh, such as public key authentication and compres- sion. sftp connects and logs into the specified host, then enters an in- teractive command mode.
While I agree with you in principle, the CDs that you burn just don't sound right and I'm not even talking about mp4 => CD => (mp3|aac|whatever) just mp4 => CD
When iTunes first came out I bought 2 full albums that I knew I had access to original store bought CDs. Going from iTunes => CD just sounds off, generally (to me) in the highs and lows, almost as if they have over compensated.
Of course it's all subjective, but to me listening to mp4 using line out from a PowerBook into the stereo sounds much better than playing a CD burned from the same source.
He didn't leave in disgust. It clearly states in the article that:
In fact, the Santa Clara, Calif.-based company said Green played an essential role in Sun's negotiations with Microsoft to come to last week's 10-year, $1.6 billion deal.
...
Meanwhile, Sun would not disclose where Green was going, but said the company has held the position "for quite a while" for him. Said one source: "He didn't want to leave until the Microsoft deal was done."
I agree with you, I have a feeling I was a little terse in my post...
Personally I have days where I know I did good things, days where it was borderline and days I was a prick and will most likely pay for it somewhere down the line.
If you feel compelled to convince yourself that you are good human every day, you probably aren't. You generally know if you were a good person or not, if you weren't, you try and do better tomorrow, not try to convince yourself otherwise.
What's really more important, to me anyway, is that I am a good person more often than not.
Of course Darl could spend the rest of his life doing charity work, he's still not going to make up for all the crap he's done.

Unfortunately @ 4200 rpm it's going to be slooow.
If I could find a 7200 rpm drive that didn't destroy the battery life in my PowerBook I would be very happy.
Adium is nice, once you get past the ducks ;)

You gotta be careful with that wording, my first though was, damn I didn't know Rednecks read slashdot and why would they wear a wizard costume??.
A friend pointed me to Miranda IM the other, not sure why as my primary OS is OS X and my Secondary is Linux.
But it looked really nice, GPL, loads of plugins.
If that's what he was selling, maybe it's a good thing they hijacked his domain to save us.

Where can you get a FULL, non-upgrade, non-OEM copy of XP for less than $100?
Sorry- My mistake, I thought you just wanted to stop the traffic. Maybe you could add a link to ad-aware or one of the other cleaners... ;)
Why not just do something like this in httpd.conf and forget about them?

Set your date way into the future, you'll need to disable NTP, change date, launch QT, quit QT, tell it to nag you later, enable NTP.
The next time you see that nag should be the day after the date you set your date to in the future.
Sounds like you want glsa-check.

While your argument sounds good in theory, in my experience, it does not hold up in practice.

As I stated in a previous comment on FairPlay, the AAC => CD process does* lose something, not sure where or why.
* in my opinion
Congarts on the $115US on that UID
Here is the AntiDot article, pretty funny.
You messed up the intro to your story... ;)
Stories like that are supposed to start like this:
Dear Penthouse,
I never thought these stories were true, then one day...
Or something along those lines.
If you are still using Camino .7, go grab one one of these.
;)
You will be amazed at the changes.
Warning: Sometimes the daily is a bit of a mess, but I use it daily

He was merely finishing his current project.
