Your analogy is flawed.
He wasn't ordered by the courts to do community service and clean some building, he did it of his own free will.
Put in your analogy that would be like half-cleaning up the kitchen and then later getting in trouble for not completing the task.
This seems like a 'one step foreword, two steps backward,' approach to network safety as I fear that, under this system, a malicious user would only have to break into one central system to wreak havoc on the entire network.
This all depends on HOW they set up the system. If they have a server with all the updates on it that it sends out, then yes this would be a bad system. However I highly doubt they would set it up like that for multiple reasons. First it would create the problem stated above, and second it would cause a big bandwidth issue with that server when every computer on the networks is trying to download the update...
This wouldn't be an issue if they just sent an update requirement to the system, informing them which patches to download off of MICROSOFT's servers. This would also be true for virus protection, using Panda's or Norton's servers for antivirus/firewall updates.
That wouldn't work. See they are managing a HUGE campus wide network and they can't discover EVERY SINGLE COMPUTER that is vulnerable and disconnect them. So if they are vulnerable and not disconnected, they are still spreading worms/viruses around the network and causing a big problem for the IT department. This way, they wouldn't have as big of a problem because they could just send an update through the system.
You can't outsource support from India. The average computer idiot can't understand support people today, imagine adding a thick Indian accent over that.
I can't believe that you actually like Bluecurve, it's the most ugly of styles I've ever seen...
Personally, I don't think I could run Mandrake or Fedora. I tried Core 2 test 1, but it was too slow for me. Plus I would always try to run "rpm2tgz" on all RPMs I download.
I'm not too sure that some of the "bloopers" from Monsters Inc, Bug's Life, and/or Toy Story 2 were necessarily fake per say... They could have been actual screw ups the actors did while doing the voices, then the animators went ahead and made some animations for them.
I've been using SoulSeek for over 10 months now, it's not some new thing RIAA is trying to push.

Overnet (formerly eDonkey)
Games, Software, Keygens, Cracks, anything you can think of, just a little slow at beginning of download, but after awhile, downloads from over 100 sources at a time.

Games, Software, Keygens, Cracks, anything you can think of, just a little harder to use and overall slower, unless you use the 1stleg hublist (http://www.1stleg.com/PublicHubList.config)
Soulseek
Mainly for music. Search for artists, select lots of tracks, leave on overnight and PRESTO! Instant GIGABYTES of music.
BitTorrent
Use other sites to search for files, and download with this software.
That's all I can think of right now, but that should get you started.
[i]This was in the new movie Elf. Will Ferrel decorated Macy's with a lego NYC (among other things) in honor of Santa's visit.[/i]
Then was thrown through it for screaming that Santa was a fake.
People want to relate to what they are watching. A sci-fi movie or TV show can do well if you manage to explain the technology and the world without bogging down the plot and by creating a plot and characters people can get into.
Exactly, that is why Deep Space Nine is/was the only good series of Star Trek.
I think what he was referring to was the fact that most people who are able program for Linux are willing to do so for free, since they are used to the open source environment.
Even without the providers assistance, many people who use IM systems are smart enough to limit incoming messages to those from their buddy lists. Still, there must be enough of a success rate to move spimmers to continue messaging users.
I used to get these about 50-60 times a day, all porn related.
Examples:
"Armandina3210398: Hey aeiri!
Armandina3210398: We took a video camera to the beach and this is what we got... Some of these girls are just the sexiest little sluts ever! We even caught one masturbating!"
"Elsa987654321016: Hey aeiri,
Come see BIG FAT chicks for FREE!! NO CREDIT CARD NEEDED!"
Since I operate 3-4 sites, I couldn't really just disable receiving people not from my buddy lists. Well, since I use Trillian Pro 2.0, I just decided, hey, why not just install the Trillian Spam Challenge? After fiddling around with some settings, wow... that thing works like a charm, I haven't gotten any spim since!
Anyone on Windows and gets spim like crazy should get Trillian Pro 2.0 and the Spam Challenge Plugin.

Last time I checked, Canada was part of the Americas...
I thought this map was all of the Americas, isn't it?

Someone who thinks if else statements are loops shouldn't have the source.
Oh wait that rules out ALL of Microsoft's developers...
That's because you are using the wrong distros and window managers.
Slackware running the development version of Fluxbox is extremely fast.

More like give a man Kazaa Lite and he'll be entertained until the next version of Kazaa comes out.
You do realize that making things smaller costs more money? That's why laptops are considerably more than computers (when same specs).
It's a reference to Futurama, please get out from under that 50 ton rock you have been living under for the last 10 years.

is for some large company (say Yahoo) to have multiple secure front ends to do the transactions for you so there isn't any one main server to DoS.
This proposal sounds REALLY similar to the structure of Freenet.

I'm a huge fan (I own a NO MA'AM t-shirt, for crying out loud)
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT??? I want one sooo bad now, I didn't know they sold them.

Funny how only HALF of the search engines you used has Linux more popular than Jesus, yet you still say it anyway... :/
