Better to just not download random shit from the web.
And then you'll get hit with every single virus that doesn't rely on user intervention (and there's been plenty of those on the win32 platform, let me tell you). And if somebody gets infected with, say, Sality (wraps EXE files) and sends you something, bam, you're infected, even though it came from a ``trusted'' source. Better to run a Virus Scanner AND not download random shit. It's almost like complacency will bite you, but so will ignoring the safeguards already there. I believe the correct answer is somewhere in the middle.
I just checked out the Mini 9 the other day, and it very much so has an Ubuntu option. Don't know about anything else though.
Of course, I checked the Japanese site (live here), and while the base computer's the same, the upgrades are all about twice as much as the equivalent US page. Guess I won't be going through Dell, after all, especially after (this) yet another fiasco.
I'm seeing state and local governments being the user accounts, while the fed is the administrator, which is to be sparingly used. Am I on track, or did you have a different thought?
Or Windows Explorer is caching thumbnails, or just decides it feels like not letting you delete the directory today. Or it's open by any application. Like a virus. It happens all the time. As for Unix, yeah, it will certainly let you try.
Isn't that why almost every Unix OS strongly encourages you to do anything with a user account? I'd rather have the power and not use it than not have the power at all.
So does every other straight man on the planet, bucko. I note you didn't mention anything about gay men, but try to sidestep it by saying you like Judas Priest and Queen. Make friends with a a gay man, call him a "faggot" in jest, and see how well it goes over. Make friends with a black man, call him a "nigger", and see how well it goes over. Do I need to continue? These words still have charge to them, and just because your 13 year old fellow counter strike players happened to use it, and your friends (likely straight, white men, hmm?) do too doesn't mean it's lost its meaning to the rest of us.
I find it funny that you have a hidden premise that "Leftist Economists are wrong", as if being a liberal somehow makes you no longer worth listening to as an economist. I also like how you don't back it up with anything.
Also,
In America, we have this thing called freedom
Another hidden premise of "high taxes remove freedom". Where do you get these ideas, man? Nobody removes the "freedom of driving" by taxing it, and you straight-up ignored all the positive points he said.
I could go on, but you've given so little backing to any of your points past stating them, I think it's best to just leave it at that.
From here:On the Sunday night before the last debate, McCain's core group of advisers - Steve Schmidt, Rick Davis, adman Fred Davis, strategist Greg Strimple, pollster Bill McInturff and strategy director Sarah Simmons - met to decide whether to tell McCain that the race was effectively over, that he no longer had a chance to win. The consensus in the room was no, not yet, not while he still had "a pulse."
There, fixed it for ya. America is a more divided country now than I can remember in my life time.
Oh really? Obama had a considerable lead on McCain throughout the election (compare electoral votes, if you will), and actually brought out the young people (a normally impossible feat). He brought the people together pretty well. And let's not forget McCain's speech, telling people to put themselves behind Obama now that he's won!
Yeah, one produces great hardware and software while locking you in, and the other is a failing monopoly! Oh, wait, those don't sound the same at all. I'm going to have to ask you to explain yourself.
In short, people are betting that the finding of the Higgs Boson will prove the existence of God. In other words, Paddy Power will shell out a lot of money if somebody can prove god to them, and their odds moved to 1/4 because the Higgs Boson is called the "God Particle". While it's good to know that the public has no idea what this really means, this is so incredibly inane it doesn't even deserve to be on Idle.
"my computer is running slower now than a week ago", or there is a crazy file that I can't delete, or "I'm getting notices to buy a spyware cleaner"
People need to know there's alternatives. I've been running Mac OS lately, and I'm not wanting to go back. All the power of a full Unix shell with an interface that's miles better than either Windows or Gnome+Compiz. Of course, Ubuntu is definitely getting there for your average person, and it's free.
Oh God, you're right! I accidentally hit the D key, and now my education is worth nothing! The horror, the HORROR! What will I do now, that somebody on Slashdot has pointed out that I misspelled a single word? I guess you win the presidential debates! You have truly shown me that Palin was the right choice.

I want my 4:43 back.

With blindness!
-1 uncomfortable truth
More like "-1 what the HELL are you talking about?"
So you're a shining example of the OP's post, eh?
Woosh!
...and a huge percentage of the population of said country...
Actually, I think it sounds more like BEEK BOOK. BEEK BOOK. And, if you downloaded the episodes online, it plays twice. So four beeks and four books.

Buy a gaming console, a macintosh, and never look back.

I've never seen iTunes use above 5% CPU. Ever. And I keep close watch on my processes.

Lower UID than you, and I lost my first account...
If Idle is a place to put stories not worthy of even commenting on, then yes, you're right.

Thankfully, the conservative crowd is not the majority. It alienated the middle while mobilizing the extreme, which ended up being a mistake.

You've got a slow connection or the torrent uses huge chunks. More like (0)-1 minute.
