For instance, you don't have to get somebody convicted to get a restraining order against them either, but nobody complains about their civil rights being infringed there, do they?
But you do have to prove that there is probable cause that said person would harm you. You just drop into a judges office and get one because you don't like them. Also, restraining orders are useless anyway, so what really is the point?
The confusion is that people are using their right to live to strip other people of other rights. Your right to live does not in anyway outway might right to free speech, unreasonable searcher or to hold arms, for example.
Whether or not laws like this work is irrelevent. You are in effect being punished because you were supsected of a crime, which is ridiculous. This law, whenever applied, will be an abuse, regarless of the circumstances.
I really prefer Windows Server 2000...and if I can't get that, then the next best thing is 2003.
Server 2k3 is far more advanced that 2000, if you can't see that in yoru blind paranoia, I really don't know what to tell you.
Longhorn is right out.
You haven't even seen it yet, and you're deciding against it? So instead of the best tool for the job, its 'whatever fits my personal beliefs.'
Then there's also the matter of Windows Genuine Spyware Disadvantage(TM), which you don't have installed on the old OSes.
Funny, as you don't have to install it. It comes as a Automatic update, I uncheck the box to tell it not to install, then I check another box telling me not to bother me again. Haven't heard from it since.
Actually, it's the first thing I hear from them in a long time that seems to care about what the customer needs.
No, MS has always been good about listening to its customers; sometimes they are slower than customer like, but they do listen. People wouldn't stick with software that wasn't doing what they required of it.
I can't speak for Java, but C# and Vb.net are gaining in popularity pretty quickly. So much so that.Net is becoming the 'new' Win32 (that is, it will replace Win32, must like win32 and Win32s replaced the older system).
Whoa there dumbass. I'm not making this crap up... its not a FEW freeloading jackasses. My wife works doing insurance precertification for the hospital here. MOST of her day is spent with these fatasses and their laziness. Yes, they actually have a 12" pizza at 9AM for a SNACK between their breakfast and lunch, and then complain they are too fat. My wife knows this because as part of getting the surgry they have to keep a food diary.
There are so many people trying to get these surgeries that the surgery departments spends an ENTIRE day just dealing with nothing but these soon to be patients.
And FWIW, this is mostly private insurance she's dealing with. I fail to see how switching to public healthcare would fix any of these problems.
People that NEED healthcare go to ERs, where they get the treatment regardless of ability to pay. There's even signs that tell you so when you come in.
Its true that things like the phone companies aren't natural monopolies, but do you really want wires running everywhere through the city, so many that you likely couldn't walk? Do you think that having 10 times the amount of copper used as wiring is a good thing? Couldn't we use that material better somewhere else?
try moving to Canada where we do medi-care right, try moving to Europe where they do medicare right
Please tell me in these places where public health care is down right, how much tax do you pay? How much are you paying because some fat ass can't stop eating, meets the 'requirements' for a gastric bypass, gets it, needs tons of surgies due to complications, still can't stop eating, blows their staples and then needs another revision? Do you REALLY feel that's a good way to spend your hard earned money (taken in the form of taxes)? I certainly don't.
Nukes don't need to come into play at all, and if push comes to shove, Russia may help Lebanon. Who knows what the shrub may do, he's already dragged this country into two wars. Nobody really wanted to get into WW1 either. Read up on how it started; it was similar, with smaller nations starting to fight each other, and slower dragging everyone else in.
If I can corrupt a database by entering an invalid lookup code then theres something severely fucked up.
Who said the lookup code had to be invalid? Simply broadcasting a valid signal for a product would be sufficent to corrupt the database. You can trick inventory systems into thinking they have 500,000 razor blades, when they only have 100,000.
Sorry, this is just plain incorrect. You don't need to have nukes to start WW3. WW1 was started because of all the alliances dragged nations in that weren't directly involved. Given that Russia, the US and other countries back different sides, it seems to be a pretty similar situtation. If Russia starts helping Lebanon, do you think the US would sit back and let Israel be overrun?

You need a burden of proof just to GET the restraining order.
Hmm, appears to me this service is disabled, and Allow Service to interact with desktop is unchecked. What was your point again?
I thought it was ETLA - Extended Three Letter Acronym
Almost identical burden of proof, too.
That may be true in the UK, but in the US, there is a burden of proof, and it has to be pretty compelling.

Its likely that the other cases were speeding violations, which don't hurt anyone if left on their own.

No, its an automatic (although I have a clutchless 'manual' mode).
So you blame MacAfee because you set their product to delete infections it couldn't clean? Hmm, ok.
Fine, how does the computer know if you're getting a shipment of razors, or if its just some guy broadcasting the signal from his laptop?

I don't see a problem. The school was designed for these assholes. Personally, I think they should just be executed, but thats me.

Thats horrid; I have a TL and it gets 30mpg highway, and the TL is heavier than your focus.
Actually for trucks and SUVs, that's pretty standard MPG ratings. Their heavier, thus require more power (gas) to move them.
I didn't realize that was him in Dark City. That was such a great movie, its too bad it seems no one every saw it.
You're arguing that its OK to stereo type Americans? Geez, you might as well call all Germans Nazis or all Jews penny pinching cheap scates.
