I could use the pirate bay vpn service for general web browsing. I might choose to do this because I understand their stance on privacy and maybe trust them to keep my information annon.
Again, this is speculation. There is nothing written anywhere that covers this. That key could be tied to steam, they could refuse to help you, you could be sued for downloading the media via bittorrent, etc.
Typically, I buy a game. Play it for a few months. Then I get bored and sell it to a friend for half what I paid for it. Or sometimes a friend comes over and I loan them a game to use for a few months.
Again, Gabe has control over EVER SINGLE game sold on steam and what can be done with it? So that means he approved using secureROM in bioshock on steam and he has the power to remove it?
I'll buy he has say in what happens to valve property, but not the hundreds of other games sold on steam.
Also, when connected to the internet, how long will steam let you stay in offline mode? Can I authorize once and never connect again? Last I checked it forces you to talk back every now and then.
I would like proof that value has secured permission to remove copy protection from all games from all companies they sell games for in the event they are forced to shut down steam. (Or choose to shut down steam).
Hmmm, if 1% of the Christians are annoying fucks who try to covert me, isn't it safe to say rather then being all atheists like you claim, it's probably just the same 1% minority that are annoying fucks?
I've never once tried to convince someone there was no god unless they brought up religion.
Apple is also just wrong. I run backgrounder + insomnia + beejive IM sometimes for hours at a time in the background (anytime I'm not at my desk where I have IM).
Yes battery life is lower, but not 5 times lower. Maybe more like instead of needed to change my phone daily, I need to charge it daily, and a few minutes here and there were I can. Which is fine because I can charge it while I drive to lunch.
The point is however that it should be an option. There is no good reason for removing a useful feature. It is obvious that it is possible and already there, they simply choose to keep it from us. Make it an advanced option you have to turn on, I don't really care.
I'll see how good this push notification is. If it works well I might not need to background apps. I'll still need to jailbreak for xGPS and cycorder.
What about when I'm in the car. I have a aux cable going from the headphone jack to the aux in on my car stereo. To skip tracks while driving I have to reach down and find the iPhone, pick it up and look at it, slide to unlock, type in my password, then press the screen once to get focus then press the skip button. All while looking at it to make sure I hit the right spot.
But how do I find that option? Is it under the start menu? Control Panel? System Preferences? Administration? Computer management? YAST?
Sure once I find what I'm looking for, then the gui is easy. No different then the adduser command. Once I know the command to use then the rest is easy.
Buy a visa gift card with cash?

I may never download a torrent over it.
And you also called Epic and got them to send you physical media for free?

The truth is this: We don't know.
That is a major problem.
How does one get this retail disk if you buy on steam?
It also totally kills the resale market.

This can not happen with steam.
GTA4 did not come with an instruction book. It came with a little book, but seriously, no instructions in there at all.
Except for it does. You can not play in offline mode indefinably. Eventually steam forces you to reconnect up and say hi.

It's not just values games on steam you know.

I've never once tried to convince someone there was no god unless they brought up religion.
Yet if someone walked in my office right now and asked that question I would answer No without even thinking.
Why, because I do not consider myself a criminal.
I downloaded it for 20.00 to support mac gaming. It's not as fun as I remember, but it's still a good time vampire.
I know I will never buy another UT game. Why? Because I was lied too. I was told there was a linux version and it would be released.
I'm still waiting.

Yea, you have to pay the 100 bucks to be a 'official' developer. Then you can test apps directly on your phone and put them on the store.
I'm almost at the point where I need to look into getting that account.
Well that covers a list of features I really wanted as a would be dev and a iphone owner. All I can say is "fucking finally!"
I know that. I just want to change songs. The phone part works fine. It's the iPod part that is lacking.
That also assumes you are using headphones. I don't use headphones. I hook the iphone into my car's line in jack.

That sounds safe....
CoH has a mac client....hmmm I may have to renew my subscription. I quit when I switched to mac.
So does my iPhone.
useradd with create the environment if you give it the flags to do so.
However, sometimes, I don't want a user to have a home directory or I want to set them up custom. For this I use useradd.
But how do I find that option? Is it under the start menu? Control Panel? System Preferences? Administration? Computer management? YAST?

Ubuntu almost never changes software versions without a new distro release. Especially on a LTS release.
