I would have agreed with the difficult part 3 days ago, but then I watched my buddy set one up from scratch in only a few hours. And that was on cheap, dated hardware. It works well and looks beautiful, here is the guide he used.
Why is acroread a spawn of satan? I use PDFs for everything. LaTeX to generate them, and acroread to view them. The third party viewers don't render PDFs as accurately or as cleanly as acroread, and acroread 7 is blazing fast.
Speaking to an entire community of people and expecting them all to agree with you makes you a pretty terrible person. So does implying that being atheist is the result of being well educated. These two things are not conducive to tolerence of any form and are a major problem in society. If you're of such high intelligence stop producing "us" and "them" faction. I believe in evolution but I would not for a second think that I'm more intelligent than a friend believing in creationism. Futhermore there is little reason the two ideas can't coexist.
I like the current interface as it is, but even if it is not yet for everybody I'm sure Google is working on improving it. A major initiative like Google Video would typically be launched in a polished product and only be slightly improved over time later, but then again Google isn't a typical company.
If I may add to this a bit, even Canon consumer cameras are the best. Easy to use, competitive pricing and excellent picture quality. I think it's pretty much undisputed at the moment that Canon make the best digital cameras bar none.[/canonadvert]
Normally Canon snobs at least acknowledge the existence of Nikon. Canon having the best digital cameras is hardly a fact or undisputed. Both Canon and Nikon make excellent cameras, and while I find that Canon's bodies are usually better than Nikon's the Nikon lenses are frequently better than Canon's.
I'd consider roads and sewer systems to still be more important to a society than the Internet. Of course the UN doesn't manage that public infrastructure and it's not that infrastructure that would be the target of censorship anyway. The UN has a scary tyranny of the majority problem that I fear would result in censorship of minority speech. You'd also find the UN a lot less receptive of the geek community. Remember how ICANN came down on Verisign after the geeks got all pissed off about sitefinder? Imagine trying to get your opinion across to the UN! Sure, criticize ICANN but they're doing a pretty good job considering what a great responsibility they've been entrusted with. Don't fix it if it ain't broken.
One of the XP power toys allows for multiple desktops.
I agree that linux holds superiorities to Windows. Hell, that's why I use it. But as I see it much of the problem is that drivers and software are still written towards only Windows. People are lucky if they even get Mac support. Some of the alternatives can accomplish the same goal but can also make it more difficult and fall short of more advanced features. The Gimp may rival Paint Shop Pro but not Photoshop. This is true for many 3D games too. It's difficult and expensive to develop software towards multiple platforms.
Out of something like 11 terabytes of data 10 of them were Nelly mp3s. Between that and the constant promise of a subpoena people who were still pirating over this network were nothing more than desperate file fucks.
IANA is a division of ICANN. Proposals have in the past been made to separate IANA away from ICANN but none ever went through. Global routing is indirectly impacted by number allocations, and delegations of AS numbers by the regional registries.
Could all of this "firefox not secure" buzz more obviously be sensational garbage? It's like people hear that more popular products = more discovered security vulnerabilities and then fail to see all of the other variables at play here. Fucking ridiculous.
OpenBSD is really more of a server OS. Sure you/can/ use it as a desktop, but there are better alternatives. I think its strongest point is how in/etc/rc.conf one can simply change say named_flags=N to named_flags="" (command arguments could go inside the quotes) and bam! BIND is up and running. Many of these services are available in/etc/rc.conf from the default install. Thus with OpenBSD it is possible to bring up a reliable and secure server fairly quickly.
More seriously, between various plugins and the new TypeKey service your argument is completely unjustified. MovableType is actually rather well designed and stopping comment spamming is no longer the least bit difficult.
Bashing steam is so popular that it's difficult to find an article that is actually objective. Cutting out the publisher only makes sense. Most of the purchase money goes into their hands, and it seems unjustified. Most games today no longer contain pretty manuals, maps, or even jewel CD cases. The percentage valve actually makes off each retail purchase is surprisingly low. Broadband users, whose number and capabilities are always rising, are able to obtain games in a manner more conveniant by using Steam. Furthermore their games are kept up to date easily and they should theoretically be cheaper (due to a contract with VU this was not so for HL2). I'm not trying to say there haven't been difficulties in the Steam system thus far, but that's to be expected in the first years of such an ambitious idea. Support the idea of Steam.

If you read over the reports on fairlabor.org for Nike you'll find the conditions in many of their factories still largely deplorable.
SCOUS is the typical abbreviation for the US Supreme Court.

I don't upload much, but I bought a pro account just to support flickr. It's amazing.

Uh, where did you take Computer Science?

Those Cisco 7900 series phones help give the command center in 24 the sexy techno-look that the set aims for.

You still up for having the UN control the Internet? Censorship, ho!

I think he was referencing the Windows Server 2003 and other Microsoft advertisements that have appeared on /.

Posting to confirm what nettdata said, you are an idiot.

it was a mistake, fuck you
640W would easily overwhelm even distant WLANs on every channel. It could also inflict serious burns on anybody nearby.

As far as Acrobat 6 is concerned, you're right. Acrobat 7 on the other hand is substantially faster. Try it.
To hell with the IPod hand recharger, I want to know more about this 'phone laptop'.
Behold the power of perl.
