Agreed. I suspect systemic issues in the organization that at the very least caused a bad practioner to be hired in the first place, and more likely the submitter is a dick that fired someone that didn't put up with nonsense.
This is a problem with geeks in general, it's all digression all the time.
Regardless of weather that is drm, or if it's even possible the submitter asked a straight forward question, and a good one at that.
For me, in response to the actual question asked. I don't know.:)
In all honesty I rarely buy content of any kind (and no I don't steal it, I just don't tend to consume things that would come with DRM).
I would do what I did when considering DRM in it's current form...I'd read blogs, I'd listen to what people had to say, I'd read the contracts themselves and arrive at a decision.
Honestly, I thought the GTK+ Ruby stuff was half decent. And the documentation was better than when I was writing Perl-GTK+ s. http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/
It's doubtful they will not have some device, dohickey, strap that will allow you to manipulate some controller or other.
In the mean time...I'd play the games in genre I found most appealing from all three of the console makers and the PC.
I will. I am a developer at a tiny company, the rest of the company is hooked on exchange and word and blah and blah.
I use sylpheed, and OOo, I don't have too much of a problem...but firing up vmware to read a document/spreadsheet sucks.
I listened to a short piece on this on NPR. Basically, pre 400 years ago, they mention that the data is consistent, yet the sources become less reliable. The scientist that was broadcast via recording did make that pretty clear. He used the word "plausible" to describe the trend at the 1000 year mark.
I, being a filthy american, know there is a hint of truth to what was said. However, generalizations have no place in rational discussion, and modding them up cheapens the discourse.
Now I suppose we'll get a +5 funny for a reply to my "rational discussion" with a "you must be new here".:)
At least he didn't trot out the "your injuries will raise my health insurance premiums and the government will have to care for you or your widow" argument.
What about that though. I have always kind of considered it a legitimate gripe. I am not trolling I was looking for an honest opinion on the matter. Usually when I am trying to determine freedoms I use the litmus test: "You can do whatever you like, as long as it doesn't infringe on the rights of others". And rasing health care costs does kind of suck for other people.
So if you have a good argument I'd like to hear it, because I really don't like the alternative. It always smells to me like laws that are protecting me from myself, which makes me a bit uncomfortable.
This just kills me. We are at fault for using tools? Why are attachments allowed to execute arbitrary code? Holding users responsible for shitty software is NOT the answer.
I have a dell with a glossy screen, and yes it can reflect light...that's why you, oh I don't know, adjust it? It works fine and the angle gets rid of the reflection. Not to mention it also makes colors look better, cleaner and vibrant.
The money I didn't pay to download crappy top 40 songs for my stolen ipod funds terrorism!?! OMFG, I never realized all that non-money did that! Brb, gotta go buy a Britney Spears album for god and country!

No one will help anyways unless it's a huge successful project, at which time you can have the foundation explore all that.
Do you have a link? Just curious, not being a dick.

No, no it won't. He's using bind vars which takes away that threat.

How did a generalization like this get modded up.

Whew, I was worried no one was going to say this as I was reading the comments.
you aren't confused. It's everyone else. RMS is commenting on the first announcement.
yeow does his head look tiny there.
Heh, I assume you meant .rpm. And I have run postgres from my user dir. So that doesn't really hold up.
Nah, bullshit. An email client is not a car.
