You are correct in saying that Kermit isn't in the spirit of UNIX.
My point was that this 'insight' is irrelevant to the discussion.
If the discussion was about how Kermit and Emacs are going to be the only two programs which will run on the next version of Solaris, your post would have been both valid and pertinant. Unfortunatly it is about how Kermit is being used in an embedded system that runs MS-DOS.
This game will single handedly DOUBLE the number of exclusive titles for Game Cube that would actually make you want to consider owning one, if only it didn't come with 'My First Controller'.

One of the points of the article was that as the micro-organisms which are encouraged to develop by the decomposing paper cause a decomposition of less degradable materials that is not only faster, but also reduces the release of harmful gasses.
I recently read an article in a scientific journal (I think it was 'Water & Environment Manager') about how recycling paper is actually detrimental to the environment; not just in terms of the energy costs involved in, but in long term damage to the unique biosystems of landfill sites.
As paper decomposes it encourages the growth of microorgamisms that effectively 'eat' trash. Without these microrganisms, material such as plastics are taking much longer to degrade. So, rather ironically, putting less paper into the landfills is actually a bad thing.
Unfortunatly, because it has been long been government policy to tell people that recycling is a 'good thing' (not just in the states, but practically everywhere), you aren't exactly going to be told 'put your paper in with the rest of your trash' anytime soon.
Would these be the exclusively Christian principles that basically boil down to "be nice".
I agree, it would be totally impossible to retain such ideals without a Christian basis - just look at how nasty those Buddists are to each other.
The fact is that pretty much whatever the dominant religion had been at the time, it would have boiled down to "be nice" and "tolerate".
And if you're going to try and argue some crappy point about fundamentalists, then I should point out that they don't come exclusively in "Jew" or "Muslim" or (better still) "Arab" flavours, you do also get Christian ones.

Do I smell the sweet fragrence of sour grapes from Mr Sega? Newsflash buddy, Sega had their chance and screwed it up. "Sega did this, Sega did that", yeah and then Sega nearly went bust.
no no no no no no no no no no no... no.
Any symmetric cipher is perfectly safe. You can factor and solve discrete log problems, but not much else.
Just in case you are still confused about the answer to your question, the answer is... NO!
In Quantum Computation, A C-NOT gate is infact universal. So why would they need to 'go for' a NAND or a NOR?
In future, before blessing us with your wisdom, please give yourself a quick slap with the clue stick - you cock monkey.
Hopefully, your ego will now be crushed down to a level suitably low enough that you will no longer bother us with your poorly understood 'observations'.
I think his point was that if you just leave it on the shelf they lose more, so the reasoning behind "lets all go out and buy xboxes just to cost microsoft money" is flawed.
I assume that a leech is someone who feeds off of P2P without giving anything back to it.
Rather like you are a leech to the music industry.
"I can't get the music I want for free because someone else is doing it first". Boo Hoo.
If you don't like someones song enough to buy it, you don't like it enough to dowenload it for free.

Firstly, a Java application written for Java 1.0 will still compile and run with Java 1.4. When the C++ standard (or the subset of the standard that any given compiler actually implements) changes people do not have any such guarantee.
Secondly, I'd be interested in knowing exactly what 'powerful and useful' functionality Sun is holding back?

As it is not a UNIX only program, why should you expect it to be "in the spirit of UNIX"?
What makes your comment even less relevent, is the fact that the embeded system running Kermit uses MS-DOS.

Let the flaming begin. Bring it on fan boys!

I didn't ask you to practise being a fucktard!
To be honest, I think you've got that one down, and you'd not be doing the world ANY favours by getting better at it.
I was merely asking you to tolerate my belief that you are a fucktard, just like I tolerate the fact that you are one.
Your lack of comprehension has altered my belief from you just being a fucktard, to a fucktard who cannot read.

As agnostics don't care, then probably not.
As for atheists, the bit about Got is simply what someone else is saying, it's not forcing them to say or believe it.
You see, there is a thing called tolerance; it's where you don't mind other people holding, or even stating, their own belief.
Let's practice together. I believe you are a fucktard. Try not to mind, and you've got it mastered.

I'd imagine you are used to 'people like me', which is the set of people with more of a clue than you - i.e. about 6 billion people.

No this is like saying "Stealing is wrong, if you like someones product, then buy it".
