So, just because it's on, or sponsored by NPR, means that it's liberal? Is that your take?
Have you ever listened to NPR? Or do youjustregurgitatewhat FOX News tells you? Because that's really a source of non-biased coverage. You know, just because people keep saying the media is liberal doesn't make it true.
NPR is probably one of the more interesting news agencies out there. You'll here stories there that you won't hear anywhere else. Not because of a political stance, but because they are not trying to get ratings to get advertisers. There stories are much more interesting for those with half a brain.
Besides, the current administration deserves as much heat as can be brought on them. They've gotten a very easy ride from this supposed liberal media.
When ever I hear a story like this, it always comes back to MSN for me. MSN was not created by Microsoft as an application for the Internet. It was created as compitition (or replacement) for the Internet. They couldn't stand the fact that people would be using something they couldn't control.
Anything you let Microsoft own will be to the detriment of the society as a whole.
The whole idea of object oriented programming is a mess. Trying to follow someone else's oo-code is like trying to get through a maze, but only looking at the floor. Sooner or later, you'll find on the way out, but you'll still have no idea what the maze looks like.
If Microsoft owned a website that posted anti-Linux articles all the time and called itself a "news" site, all of Slashdot would be up in arms.
Sure there is. Its called ZDNet.;) Most published magazines are nothing but shills for Microsoft, anyway, though advertising dollars.
Actually, I've found that people waste more time screwing with some WYSIWYG edtior, than they would if they'd just learn HTML.
Personally, I use Crimson Editor and FireFox in my development. And since CE has a 'Save to FTP' feature, I don't even need a seperate client for that.
I would recommend against using SF. The site is slow, and you'll spend more time learing the ins and outs of the administrative interface. I've never used GForge, but it looks to be more of the same.
Mabye use a groupware client (like phpgroupware).
Or better yet, use Mantis. Its a great web-based bug tracker. But we use it at work to track all kinds of things. All you're really looking for is something to manage bugs, enhancements, etc. Install it, CVS, and ViewCVS, and you should have almost everything you need.
Its the very idea that they feel they must hide their message in an entertainment medium to gain converts. I would feel the same way about a social group doing it.
Let me evaluate your message on its own merits; don't try to sneak it in on me.
There's a burgeoning Christian development community that sees opportunity in creating mainstream video games that speak to their beliefs and values, realizing that the consumer base is available and that gaming would be an effective tool to build interest among young people.
Oh boy! I can't wait for Coverting the Heathens IV: This time, its Biblical;) Maybe the lead developer on that game would be Ned Flanders.
That does sound a little scary, though. Religions are having trouble reaching youths, so they try to use ulterior methods for getting their message across. To me, it seems like they don't respect people's intelligence enough; they think people can't evaluate the message on its own merits. They have to sneak it in, when people are least expecting it.
Pretty underhanded, no?
Every single truly good show Fox gets it cancels. What is it replaced with? Midgets, people injuring themselves, TV bloopers, weddings, police chases, reality shows, absolute shit.
Its not just Fox; Its every network. Look at the WB: Cancelling Angel, which, in my opinion, is some of the best tv on. But way stays on the WB? Shit like Charmed and High School Reunion. More reality garbage. Why is it so interesting about watching a bunch of dumbasses living there lives?
I wouldn't mind paying $1.00 for the newest stuff (heck, charge $2.00 for all I care). But older stuff should be far cheaper. Why should I pay $1.00 for an Eagles song that released 30 years ago? A dime or a quarter would seem much more fair.
As my signature clearly states: "Donkies can't spell". If you don't get it, check my username.
But, I do have to agree with you. TNG was the best. DS9 was pretty good for the first 2-3 seasons. After that, it just went downhill fast (although, it is light-years ahead of Enterprise. Blah!). But, when TNG was at its best, it was some of the finest TV around.
Shit, maybe I should post my FTP information. I've got the new Dilated LP and some Star Trek: DS9 episodes. That should be worth at LEAST a +2.
DS9 was shit. You should get labled a troll if you do that.
Dude... You still use bookmarks? Get a wikki, or just use google.
I gave up on bookmarks a long time ago. Figured out I spent more time managing them, or digging through them, than it would have taken me to just search for the damn thing again.
Web-based email on your terms. Who needs to write it from scracth?!?!
For what its worth, I will be givng the new Gmail a shot. We'll see how good it is (I expect it to be great) before I start to decide how I feel about the privacy issue.
Does this mean I'd get to play OGG files on the iPOD? As far as I know, there are only two players that support OGG (iRiver, and one other, but that one requires a firmware upgrade).

Probably because they are getting tired of being dragged to court for DMCA violations...

Why don't you just bring that up at your next Klan rally!
No... That makes even less sense.
Ooops! Here comes my boss!
LOL! God, I wish I had mod points so I could mod this guy as Funny. Thats was hysterical!
Nope. Not yet.

There'd be no way for them to force it down, if I understand freenet, anyway.

Oh, shocking. Religious zealots are hypocrites? I never would have seen that one coming.

Someone Mod this parent up as funny... I should have seen that probable response coming a mile away.

How about a name that is indicitive of the programs function? You know, something like 'FireWeb', except not so lame.
Er... Its real simple to setup your own web-based mail access:
- Go to Ilohamail, and download the latest verison
- .
- Uncompress in your webroot
- Go to http://localhost/ilohamail/ and login.

What high barrier? You got a computer laying around? Got a highspeed internet connection? Start your own web-based mail service...
