on my Mac I browse 'trusted' sites with Safari, and 'untrusted' ones with Firefox (adblock). slashdot and most commercial sites are 'untusted' in this sense. but the BBC for example is non-commercial and trusted.
plus, no one has ever changed the way their browser identifies itself to websites have they? oh wait...
I'm in my office in the UK and there are 3 linux workstations and 2 Mac laptops. within a 5 seconds walk there are another 2 Mac laptops and 9 more linux workstations. what's "common" can be a very subjective thing. what makes you so sure your idea of common is right?
I find it feasible. at a recent science conference with several hundred people, those with non-Mac laptops were a very small minority. (out of the non-Macs it was about 50/50 Windows/linux.)
this is only tiny sample and I'm not exrapolating from it, just using it as an example how Mac usage is very high in some places so 16% isn't so far fetched imo.
if you think about it for two seconds instead of rushing to reference Sousa you'd realise that 1. you still need a performer to imitate 2. this is being done because listners are *very much attached* to good performances from the past and would like more of the same.
>3) it's complete subterfuge so Jobs can keep his real surprise which is to announce the iTunes Music store is now the iTunes Media store. Begin your downloading now.
they use bluetooth. bluetooth is limited to 7. they're just saying you could connect 7 devices and a controller is a device. it has nothing to do with games having seven players or anything. it was probably started by a marketer, not a real person with sense.
it's almost physically painful to imagine all the work that's going to go into setting something like this up, only to produce a result that is pretty much infinitely shitter than just playing your own mix CD, and definitely infinitely shitter than being about to hook up your ipod to the radio.
the cost of war is so much higher than anything like this - THAT should always be the first thing you stop.
at the moment it looks like NASA is going to shut down the TRACE satellite that is an invaluable source of data about the Sun. probably due to cost, and yet the cost was only about the same as a single cruise missile. surely letting a few more inncoent Iraqi civilians live wouldn't have undermined the shock and awe campaign?
anyway, the point is you shouldn't bother being careful with how you spend pennies if you're still wiping your arse on $100 bills.
jeez, if you want to still carry on with 5 year out of date arguments then of course nvidia can make better drivers if they pre-render your benchmark tests for you.
maybe you should learn to read. and then shut the fuck up.
all I suggested was that people bitching about Tibet should look at their own history first. for most people here that's America. in my case, from the UK, it's Northern Ireland. Tibet was part of China before Northern Ireland was part of the UK. then Tibet was independent for a while before going back under Mao.
once you've learned to read, look at my posts. I haven't implied any of this occupating is right or wrong or that it upsets me. I just want people to be consistent about bitching about this kind of thing.
the beeb's new weather graphics have been controversial. a lot of people don't like the dark muddy colours. plus Scotland was really pissed because the way the map was angled meant you could hardly see it. this has now been changed, but the new map still doesn't show wind direcion or isobars.
from the few times I've seen it I haven't been impressed. it looks like a nice virtual atlas, but I never seem to come away with any actual info from it.
never mind, nowadays I get my weather from the OSX Dashboard widget.

>Would it only violate the EULA is MS sold a different version with a RSOD as well?
you have to buy longhorn for that particular innovation.

this would be a lot more likely and a lot better.
the much shorter version of that review: bitch, bitch, bitch, there's incorrect physics in a movie [shock horror!], bitch, bitch, bitch
it's not so funny when not only have 10 other people made the joke before you, but you also *explain* it.
that's Aaron Eckhart, not Bruce Willis.

..once you start adding punctuation, formatting and emoticons, how do they fare?
a converter for old .doc to new XML?
>While we generally thing of the internet as USA only...
you're either very retarded or a very subtle troll. the "EU hating MS" non sequitur and the AC posting leads me to believe you're a troll.
nice try though. you even bagged a few mods on crack.

...means "mostly USA" as with other Google services? would this be worth looking at for someone from the UK?
no, the DMCA makes you a criminal after step 4, not step 5. copyright laws make you a criminal after step 5.

>Next gen consoles may soon become useles.
not as long as an entire multimedia and internet capable games console costs half the price of just the graphics card in a high-end PC.
> Bet it's a Zalman.
the first word of the story title didn't give it away for you?
someone put the script test on all this guy's posts from now on.
>I'm going to download these episodes and boycott the TV showings
same here. I'll buy it if you want to sell me it, but I won't beg.
...but I hope the captain doesn't die. he's a great character played by a good actor.
if you need to kill someone, kill that alcoholic 2nd in charge. he was just a bit boring and had a slut for a wife.
unselect debian in your preferences and stfu then.
