It doesn't matter if Suse has moved onto GPL 3 4 5 or 6. If MS are giving away coupons for a version of SUSE, what the hell is stopping them from giving away the disk version from the day they made their coupons?
There are plenty of places which offer an older, freeware (or other licensed) version taken from before some change in licensing occured.
Chan had posted a message inviting BitTorrent users to download a movie on an Internet movie forum called "bt.movie.hk" using his "Big Crook" alias.
Thats similar to the motorbike guy who gave loads of speed cameras the bird because he thought he was safe. Had it just occurred quietly no-one would have batted an eyelid.
What happens when wireless routers become so widespread that your message can get around the world without ever touching a government/big corp network?

From the Valve Stats page, Ep1 took on average five and a half hours to complete. I remember playing original HL for ages, HL2 even took a while - but Ep1 was a complete waste.
If the touchscreen is not level with your eyeline, you will get an offset amount. I only notice it when I rotate my tablet round and have to adjust the offsets slightly.
I can imagine overly tall/short people with a badly placed touchscreen ending up stooping or on tippytoes to balance out the effect.

The most impressive thing I have ever seen with vinyl disks was a friend saying "you have to listen to this" and searching the disk for a particular pattern and dropping the needle on it. Deadly accurate and spot on. You could see the entire album and know where quiet sections are and how much to skip to to get past the annoying interlude or whatever.
Download our Super Super User software to make all your programs run without that annoying password box. As an added bonus, we will throw in an instant free to download screensaver*.

You are correct, but there is a difference between saying these files are available and the reality which is (normally) your upstream capacity and group organisation of p2p makes it near impossible for those files to ALL be sent from your computer to everyone else in the universe.
The RIAA should clearly link seeing the file available and actual infringements otherwise the figures quoted are just pie in the sky.
In reality, there isn't a problem with setting up a fund to pay off your debts for years to come? The few people I remember getting fined for crimes ended up paying a weekly sum and had the threat of big nasty bailiffs knocking on their door if they didn't pay.
The boundary of pretty much everything we see is turbulent. I would not expect a static fixed line. From ferns to coastlines to mandelbrot sets, throughout the solar system and around galaxies and out into the universe at large.
This new LG monitor I have has a setting which disables the indicator - an absolute godsend. Its the first device I have which doesn't have a piece of tape or blu-tac covering it.
The lights are a great distraction, and the worst offender is the Socket extension cord its got 2 glowing beacons (flickers like neon) which still show through the entire length of the strip, I have disabled the majority of it, but there is an spooky glow coming from it every night.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have tonight a bout between two of the worlds greatest software idealogists.
In the Blue corner weighing in at 289 pounds we have Monkey Boy Ballmer, his speciality move: The chair. In the Red corner, weighing in at 432 pounds we have the one and only R.M.S, speciality move, being R.M.S.
Space. The final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Doogan. Her five year mission, to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilisation. To boldly go where no man has gone before.
You can just picture the comm message as Scotty tells the captain they won't leave earth orbit and will have to search for spock in New Mexico.
Thanks for pointing out the Theremin, I hadn't heard of them before. The strangest video I just came across is a mashup of simpsons and star trek, the Theremin creates the wailing woman voice from the theme tune. The Simpsons vs Star Trek

MS won't break a sweat over this.
If thats the case, they could have saved an extra character by spelling it correctly ;)

I don't care about suing people or companies, what I care about is the ambulance chacing all these friggin' vampire lawyers do.
Without lawyers I am quite certain the world be a better place.
(Before anyone starts, yes I know there are good decent lawyers who do their jobs really well who practice criminal law, not this corporate bullshit)

Don't just dismiss Roland, I found the popsci link rather lacking in comparison.

Nothing screams low key approach like a helicopter blaring above.
Wasn't Bush given a mobile phone after 9/11?
How would they inform him if a problem occurs?
You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to work, when you pay your taxes.
I think there is a glitch in your matrix.

Dude. You got pwned by a girl.
And the problem with this is?
If I receive unsolicited commercial mail from anywhere, its spam.
If they are known to me and have a relationship I will add them to my contacts list.
