The power through an orginization shouldnt matter, it should matter that people are willing to band together to fight tyrants. This may seem old fashioned in this 'Improved' world, but I think it works. A petition. A long piece of paper. It has changed history. The Declaration of independence, that was a Petition. The Constitution, that was a petition. The petition to stop aol cds, that, my friend, was a petition.
ICANNWatch was good enough, Auerbach wouldnt be needed. A single man made more change then a large orginization. What does that say about how well run it its? Hmmmmmm?
If we could make a better TV? We should atleast get 1/4 the quality of the picture into the programming. Lets take a look at the Chronology of Televison, Shall we?
Old Shows - Honey Mooners, Lucy, Etc, all Hilarious and very well thought out shows. Then we goto Color, with the New Lucy Show, Etc... As we got color, the programming quality reduced to produce more gimmicky affects. Then we came to The 70-80's, where cable comes along somewhere. We get terrible 80's sitcoms like Webster and Small wonder. Then, HDTV, We get shows which have no plot, but the earlier counterparts were well thought out shows. Take enterprise, perhaps THE most overrated TV Show of all time, and even though it's overrated, people watch it. It's linear, the better the TV, the worse the shows. Here's a little equation. For each year TV Exists (N), and Shows on a scale from 1-100, We have n=100-n
I wouldnt want anything from apple on my Beauty. I know it's a little prejudiced, but apple just makes a huge mistake when dumbing down the interface. Yes, it's elegant and beautifal, and KDE/Gnome could learn a thing or two, but it boils down to the fact that Simpler means Stupider. The downfall of Many OS's, though, has been from complex interfaces. The inbetween point is sickening (windows).
Maybe it could get an AMD down to under 400 Degrees! Halleilujia! Those things are WAAAYYY to hot, and hell, liquid nitrogen might be able to cool them down to 30 degrees. A refrigerator, prolly 150.
Lasers are readily available, and so are video cameras. I suppose a new technology for the spying government would be appropriate, but I'd hope that Big Brother wouldnt spy on us outside our legal rights. Yes, I know, pipe dreams.......
Yay Sris!
This is not boding well for my plans of total cell domination. Time for plan B, Induce mass Khemotherapy in my body, and dominate the remaining weak cells! (insert evil doctor laugh)

She is really a good host, and junkyard wars went to hell without her. I'm glad she's finally coming back. We need more british people on American TV!
The ten commandments may have turned out better.

The KDE League, I agree, should give all there money to KDE itself. Why have a damn league, when you can have the real thing?

Hurry it up guys! You're making it too easy! YAY SRIS
Wahoo, it could be an FP YAY SRIS!

Intel keeps coming with promises of the Best chipset ever, nothing will EVER Be better, then the week after, poof, a new one with 80x the power.
I guess this is kinda cool, but I hate source code, so I'll stick with RedHat for now.
What implicatiosn could this have, thoughts?
Wow, thats freaky. I remember when my first computer was all of 30MHZ, and is was 50x + times as big
Damn it!
I wonder what the clock speeds on these are....
