Bad writing day... I meant to say "no doubt partly because otherwise the AP owner could be held responsible for any criminal activity" (of course the business model requires them to save the info).
What are you talking about? Fon knows about every connection and ties them to user ids, and they save the information, no doubt because otherwise the AP owner could be held responsible for any criminal activity...
First, this is pretty close to spam if you ask me. Your product has nothing to do with Feisty specifically. There are thousands of pieces of software that "support" Feisty -- do you think their developers should post here too?
Second, "supporting Feisty" should include offering a.deb-package or preferably a repository. Offering binary installers or source packages that are tested to work is nice, but not what most admins want.
Not everyone shops at the same place as you do. I just checked and the Vista prices at the best shop around here go up to 496 euros, which is about $670...
The only way to stop evil is to destroy it and those who belong to it.
Yeah, kill all the fanatics (nuke from the orbit if possible)... and this is is Insightful, according to moderators.
1: "...the Debian Security Team may come to a point where supporting Mozilla products is no longer feasible and announce the end of security support for Mozilla products."
You do know that Mozilla does not support old releases (this includes security fixes)? Debian has two choices: backport security fixes themselves or stop support (for that version) entirely.
2: "register_globals... is now finally deprecated on Debian systems"
What the hell is so funny in these quotes? I don't get it...
If I make a contract that states I won't use an ad blocker, of course I won't use one. What's your point? While you're at it, could you explain why you refer to my stated opinions as "so-called 'ethics'" -- sounds like you want to say something with that phrasing, but I'm not sure what.
There are lots of problems with this vote, if it's claimed to indicate anything in a statistic sense, but the sample size is not one of them. A sample of 3000 is going to give you a margin of sampling error of less than 2% (with a 95% level of confidence) -- a lot better than most polls.
The sample is probably not representative of anything, but that's another problem.
I disagree. I do try to be legal and ethical in my consuming (as an example: my whole music collection is legal), but what you are saying is not what web is about.
This is my take on it: The website owner is free to send me any crap they want when I request a page. Likewise, I'm free to do anything I want with the data I receive. If I don't want to see any images, I don't have to see them. If I want to read the thing translated into latin, I can. If I want to filter ads, I will.
There is no contract, or even moral obligation, that I should read every fucking letter they send to me... They have an option to send me data, I have an option to read the data, that's it. If the business model of the website can't deal with that... well, boo hoo.
In this particular application I'm ready to use "the wisdom of the crowds" at about the same point I'll consider consulting tealeaves, clairvoyants and astrologers. The fact that traditional methods haven't worked doesn't make that bs anymore believable.
If anyone's read James Surowiecki's "The Wisdom of Crowds", they'd be familiar with a story in which a lost ship was located by tabulating/averaging the guesses from individuals (most with no search and rescue experience). This technique is roughly based on the idea of nature's bell-curve; collect enough guesses and the mean will be RIGHT ON.
No offense, but if your description of the technique is correct, it's based on sheer luck, not on "the idea of nature's bell-curve"...
I don't think you need to look at genes just yet... There are quite a few environmental differences between USA and many other countries (even if we keep to developed countries, in which case access to internet is not a real difference): fast food being culturally and financially more viable alternative, walking being a non-alternative for most people as a transportation option, etc.
Their "old binary cruft" preserves backwards compatibility. Are you against that for some reason?
Nothing prevents Microsoft from adding backwards compatibility features to their applications. Common sense should have prevented them from adding those same features to a fucking fileformat standard.
Now it's your turn: Why on earth should a file format spec cover backwards compatibility? Can you name other sane file formats that do it?
Maybe it's there to allow you to convert a document *from* word 95 with full-width East Asian characters into something from the 21st century that understands Unicode...
...
They are now trying to make good with this crap by giving you config options to deal with these hacks. I would think that you could load one of these old docs, and save it as DOCX and it would look and print the same as before.
That is a very nice feature for an Office program. However, we are talking about whether it should be included in a document format. Please include some reasons why it should.

I just realised my stereo set doesn't have 3G either. I'm going to throw the useless piece of junk away first thing in the morning.

Oh, I wasn't suggesting Wisdom of the Crowds generally is based on luck, just that locating a ship on sea with that method is... well, idiotic.

You do know that there is an alternative explanation for that? The sites in question may well let googlebot in without registering...
