Well lets see if I remember right it was at one point illegal to teach slaves in the US to read or wright something of a language IP law (for whites only).
it's not like that Chilean language is widely used for business or anything else outside of chilie.
if the natives in the US wanted to sue for the unlawfully use of there language I'm sure that there would be a court that would hear it and be forced to interpret tribal law in parallel with US law.
and you know MS would go after the Indians in Chile if they where using one copy of windows on all it's computers.
I actually think it's quite funny and can't wait to see how it turns out.
My best guess is that George will be stepping down soon too.
The Demo's are going to take that new found power and start investigating the situation and thump Gee Dubya right in the head. They (the demo's) will take any thing he has done wrong or out of sequence and rip him a new one. The writing is on the wall.
I'm not saying President Bush is right or wrong. I'm just saying that he has pushing his weight around since he has been in office and answering to no one. Now we will see if he will have to pay the piper or his disregard for popular opinion.
I run on WVO, I get the waist oil free it cost about 70 cents a gal to filter and I only use diesel to start and shut down the cars I have. I get about 2000 miles per fill-up of diesel 20 US Gal at 30 MPG on VO I fill the VO tank quite a few times before I have to go buy diesel.
Well Lets See, I have forgot how to use M$-windows it's been so long since I have had one and I don't really miss photoshop. I did not switch for security reasons but it was an added side-effect. I don't have anything to hide I don't but my financial info on a computer connected it the internet, and I don't were a piece of aluminum foil under my ball-cap at all times (just on the bad days). but the default load of any Linux / *nix can leave you as venerable to attack as any M$ box. if you poke yourself in the eye with a screwdriver is it really the tools fault or was it because you where not using it correctly. I'm not Talking up MS I'm just saying that if you are going to switch because of security alone then you probably wont put the time in to have it configured correctly or patch in a timely manner so you'll be just as ready to be invaded as anything you are trying to escape. The only advantage you would have is that all those little porn and search widgets are not available for *nix and you won't be able to have them auto-load.
would Nortin or F-prot or whom ever, get find and jailed for this kind of silly tactic?
I had a friend who tried to get me to crack and jack a company in NY so he could sell security software (encription) to them. I nearly choked when he asked me for this, and I read him the riot act about finding anybody to do this for him. Then tried to explane why it is / was such a bad idea. Now DHS wants to do this on a global scale and what about the countys they bork who are not so keen on the US, WOW this looks like the begining of the end.
[HEADLINES] "WW-III Starts over Data and bandwidth with the US taking the first blood" and that's all I got ta say bout that. YIKES,,, Ok so it might not be that bad but it could be.
A friend of mine at Iowa telecom just did this poke around you might find him he's a bit fed up with/. so he probably wont read this but if you really want to know how to do this you will find him.
The start up time was a small part of why the steam engine didn't make it.
the real reason the Steam engine didn't make it was because the boilers would randomly explode and people are afraid of riding on a boom.
I agree that Steam could now actually be used as a viable alternative for many applications but a daily driver might be a ways off. As for you adding the tidbit about software to run a steam-car well to make one safe and use the latest tech in it. It would take as much if not more computer systems making it prone to S/W crashing too.
as for the disadvantage (The Greatest) it would still need to have a pressure chamber on it which if not maintained properly could explode (and since the newer steam engines work under more pressure than the engines of the past it would be a nastier pop and could cause injure to bystanders as well as whom ever may be in the car. I think there was a thing on/. about a modern steam-car a few years back and they had an exploiton because of a little rubber O-ring and I'm to lazt to go look for the link.
I got Trolled for yes a bit of a rant but not way overbord the other day it's a Mac Snob thing.
Luckly I said enough about Linux in the same rant some one moded me back up as intresting. then back to a new one came back and trolled me again 70% troll 30% intresting.
Who cares what the mod is it was a good question about the article.
"I am an engineer. Among many other things," I could a few other things to your lit of things that you are.
Bully to you for using Mac to do your work or what ever.
Blah, Blah, Blah, Let me guess your whom ever you want to be on-line it seems to be how it goes around here especialy when there is a load of "'s" in the rant. Blah, Blah, Blah!
as for the GPL paying large bills with big bags of change is bull shit yes it's legal tender but it's done as an insult / retrabution / and just not polite. releasing bulk code on a community who only asks for changes to the original code is like paying large bills with big bags of change and Bull Shit!
and as for your personal coment about me well I'll concider the source.
Move along elvis has left the building nothing to see here!
the giant code dumps are like paying a $5000.00 bill with sacks of louse change. yes it money but how long will it take you to spend it if you recive it and have to sort it out.
I'm glad you like Mail.app I would hate to think we like or dislike the same things.
gphoto http://www.gphoto.org/ it's for getting and organizing photos from your camera. I use an older ver. not gphoto2 because I have an older camera that has better support with gphoto than with gphoto2.
I use FireFox and Thunderbird on the Mac and when using Linux... Aww never... mind when you said "If Firefox isn't what you need, then I guess that pretty much leaves MSIE. Maybe you should have bought a Dell and used MSIE + Outlook 2003." it points out that you just don't get it now do you.
I do regret not getting what I was looking for a 12in Transmeta laptop. but I do think the iBook has some redeaming fetures, "it is stable" the i-software meens nothing to me and I can manage my photos quite easly and more universaly with gphoto (That is what I like). the two apps I look for are mail clients and browsers (that was pitched to me in the Apple store) and I don't know anyone who would lone me there Mac to beet to death. as for more unix like WTF are you talking about?
and how dose this apply to the GPL issue I was actual ranting about.
Call me names if you must Troll me too but if you realy think mail is a good.app then your probaly just using your computer for email and the web.
the act of adding a rule to mail is way to much work for something that is so simple for most other mail clients and the sluggisnes of both Safari, and Mail is anoying. and to boot there is the GPL issue and the total lack of fairplay from apple.
I have no use for iMovie, iPhoto, or iDVD sory. don't get me wrong I Love the iBook HW and OSX is stable. but the basic apps are what piss-me-off and the fact I was sold snake oil from a company whos new business model has killed the people who kept them alive through the lean time. as for resale value I'm not willing to lose money on this thing because I don't like a few apps which I have worked around. I did buy an iPod 2 weeks after buying this thing but there is no linux support ATM (I think) I've been very busy and don't have time to keep up with eveything when it happens.
you kind of sound like you might work at Apple.
I'm sory for ranting about a bunch of my complaints when the GPL issue is the main point here it just added fule to the fire all ready burning.
As I write from my iBook G4 wishing I hadn't spent the money on this thing, or that I could get Airport support for ppc linux.
I read this stuff and think Hey since I got this thing I have been complaining about Safari and Mail since I first booted OSX. I got this computer on the recommendation from some very serious Linux Guru friends and kind of thought less of them ever since.
the fact that Apple is being a parasite on the GPL just adds insult to injury for me. As soon as the warranty is over in December I plan on loading a ppc linux distro on this thing and I potty mouth Apple to everyone including going into the apple store where I bought it. I'll go in and ask questions that they can't answer about X11 support and "Why dose Safari and Mail SUCK so much?" in the loudest voice I can manage w/o screaming or being considered thretting with my 3 year old son in tow whose mantra is "Hey That's Yucky Window$ when he sees a Window$ Logo:)
I hear that OSX is so helpful in productivity HOW? an OS dose nothing except pass instruction to the processor it's the apps that make the difference. Browsers, and mail clients are important APPS! I use FireFox and ThunderBird on this Mac.
isn't it the apps. and not the os that most people find useful?
most users are writing documents, checking Email, surfing the web, or what ever and most of the things they do are application sensitive and not OS specific?
I have many PC based machines and most of them (all except for my 3 year old sons) run some distro of linux. I also have 2 laptops 1 iBook, and 1 vaio OSX and linux in that order. I run the Linux tools I like on the iBook and Linux w/ the tools I like and use on the viao. and 2 old SUN boxes w/ solaris 8. I can if I wanted to get most of my business done on a windows box if I needed to w/o using many MS tools other than the OS it self.
Any way I just find the question a bit silly for average computer users.

"Who has Apple killed in the open source community?"
your wrong about what I was saying here it's not the open source community who is being wronged by there business pratices it is the resellers who stuck with them even when sales where small and more work than it was worth (limmited income ability).

I did say "in my humble opinion"
I Shrug and walk away with my head down.
But then again diden't RedHat make him Rich? and buy him that Z3 Or that is what he said in "Just for Fun"
I'm sory but RH / Fedora dose not make a linux fan IMHO.
And That's All I Got To Say About That!
"So you never update your Windows installation?"
Don't be silly of corse I did but It was not to download IE. it was to set everything up for the next set of Virii coming down the pike.
I actually got rid of IE off my new mac first thing and until recently I've been using Linux exclusively for year.
Well Let's See
Win 3.x no IE Mosaic my browser of choice
Win 95 IE standard
Etc, etc, etc.
if I needed IE I could get it off a software CD or a Win * update
but who really went out to "download" IE it self (not update)
I don't recall anybody downloading IE
so. your point?
oops didn't read the MSN article completely
Any Web site that offered downloads of the game would be fined up to 10,000 yuan ($1,210)
