Sure I could guess but which ones exactly would those be?
dunno, but siteadvisor gives me a nice green tick in google search for those that are supposedly safe... ooh you're in luck, there's an IE version as well as a Firefox one... but I wouldn't know if it was actually safe to visit them using IE
oh come on please... I'm a dedicated Linux user at home, but at work I have no choice... they upgraded everybody to XP a month ago and I'm actually impressed. I haven't managed to crash it yet... and in a software house I'm running some pretty flaky, heavy resource using, development software all the time...
call an extraordinary meeting of the shareholders to request that Ballmer AND Gates resign??? because as sure as eggs is eggs, they're ultimately responsible for Vista being SO behind schedule...
A line of prisoners files past a jailer. Coordinator: Crucifixion? Stan: Yes. Next prisoner. Stan: Er, no, freedom actually. Coordinator: What? Stan: Yeah, they said I hadn't done anything and I could go and live on an island somewhere. Coordinator: Oh I say, that's very nice. Well, off you go then. Stan: No, I'm just pulling your leg, it's crucifixion really. laughing Stan: Yes I know, out of the door, one cross each, line on the left.
do you know... there's ONE thing about themes in Firefox that REALLY bugs me... having to restart the browser to change themes... why the f can't it be like Opera???
And, honestly, I'd love to play my old games again. But my 486 recently died, so they don't run anymore.:(
Dosbox to play them on and "home of the underdogs" to get the files so that you haven't got to scratch around hunting for an old 5 1/4 drive... (sorry haven't got time for links, can't do that much browsing at work)
why don't they do what I did... use mindmaps and back them up with a tape recorder and a digital camera... listen to the lecture at leisure later and refine the mindmaps...
plus, they're not really trying to take notes down on those laptops... they're IM'ing each other or catching up with some cruddy blog...
OK then, riddle me this... what if I were at home, my only phone was a "Skype" connection via my personal computer, and at the moment I desperately NEED to make a 911 call, I can't because some crappy DRM from some crappy Britney single that I'd had in the CD drive disabled the audio input on my soundcard and didn't re-enable it on removal of the crappy Britney single???
Company: "That's why you shouldn't play with it! Our DRM would NEVER break unless you fool around with it. It's completely bug-free and hacker-proof."
so then... what happens when DRM systems from several different suppliers are duking it out on your computer for control of the channels from dvd drive to display and sound???
apart from the ridiculous St.Patty's goof, what the fsck is a "Brewskie"??? and I thought the Australians were getting silly with their corruptions of perfectly good words...
oh piss off wintroll... defaults are defaults... if you don't like them, well at least you can change them... unlike windows where you're stuck with one size fits all
ah but broadband access is essential so that the media conglomerates can monetise their "product". Without broadband penetration, the potential market is always going to be just too small to be worthwhile...
holy heck man... you do realise that he could, in all probability, regenerate from a small piece... what a horrible nightmare, two hundred clones of GW Bush running around. One's bad enough...
Ubuntu breezy installs Kaffe by default as I discovered to my dismay when Azureus stopped working after upgrading from hoary to breezy (All my Java symlinks got changed to point to Kaffe. Even re-installing "real" java again failed to get Azureus working until Kaffe was removed).
ATMs are already using two-factor: something you have (ATM card) and something you know (PIN). What is it that you want them to be doing instead?
Well as the damned things photograph you anyway when you make the transaction, then it shouldn't be too hard to get them to do face recognition as well... with a voice prompt to remove any ski-mask or motorcycle helmet if it can't find enough features.
only 5 unconnected days in twelve months!!!... where I work, I only get disciplinary action if I have a suspicious pattern and more than twelve in a year... hell, I could be signed off sick for six weeks solid before the wheels are set in motion to assess my future position with the company.

they should brand them on the forehead as well and forbid them ever wearing anything to hide the brand...
ah, but some of us can't be jiggered to read Digg cos of the inane level of discussion there...
got this...
it's "Cross-Platform"... not "Cross-Browser"... subtle difference... mind you if it were cross-platform AND browser agnostic, then I'd be happier...

wait long enough and pick it up in the pre-owned or bargain bins... :)
