Got it for free? Without the artist's permission? You have just deprived that artist of income for their work, among other things. Until you produce similar art, or befriend somebody who does, I'm afraid you will continue to misconstrue grammar pandering and rationalizing as economic and social insight.
last week, I found a site that worked in FF, but not in IE. I use the IE-Tab extension in FF for those sites (mostly news sites with video) that do not work with FF. I had the IE-Tab activated and next thing I knew the site I went to (sorry, don't remember which one) wasn't working. I went to turn on IE-Tab not realizing it was already on. I smiled.
I used to reply to these threads like suv4x4 just did. Then I realized that anyone who is really interested in graphic design (read: professional), especially if they intend to actually print their artwork, will inevitably end up with a copy of Photoshop.
At the professional level price just isn't that big of a factor. If your main choice for not buying PS is price, then perhaps you're not quite at the professional level yet.
"but documenting what goes on in [her house] and furthermore making it available to others, is not OK."
This is about documenting a house, the outside of it. The fact that one can view inside the house is quite incidental. In other words, this is a different case than paparazzi, at least in terms of intent.
Really, if she is so concerned about her privacy, perhaps she should have drawn the blinds, or have a contractor take out the window all together.
"You have to look at the reason why each company chooses to implement DRM or any other form of IP control."
DRM's end result on the user is the same, regardless of Apple's or MS's reasoning for implementing it. In other words, no, he doesn't have to look at the reason why each company chooses their DRM scheme: it's still a hassle.
at least Christianity is free, as in you can point out all its silliness and implausibility without fear of being sued, sent to jail, or forced to take info off your website.
many of us, probably older and wiser, do agree with you.
Your troll moderation is due to the-world-revolves-around-me epidemic we're in.
The fact that the GP will cheer on Brazil while not giving any of his own money to poor aids patients, is just another indicator of his intellectual and moral laziness.
this commercial, at least here on/., is turning out pretty interesting. Just look at the first 20 comments; several posters asking "Ya, but can it do that?" only to get straight up positive responses.
I was expecting to read a round of flamewar-lite and move on to the next article. It's the obviously-ignorant-about-osx, and smugly-so crowd, that have turned the first part of this thread into a pro-osx-enterprise commercial the likes of which must make any apple marketeer wondering who in the office is playing bad-cop.
If the disinformation and off-topicality are what bothered you, then why didn't you simply
1) Point out the errors, like the number of Armenians generally accepted as killed
2) Point out the non relatedness of the genocide to the topic at hand?
The link you used, as the poster below me pointed out, is anything but unbiased, and even in your response you questioned the genocide's proper legal classification, as if to say we shouldn't be calling it a genocide, when just about every country other than Turkey calls it that. Whether or not you realize it, but in your attempt to counter the padded body count, you just defended the stance that attempts to downplay or deny the Armenian genocide.
If you're against hyper-Turkish-nationalism, and the Armenian genocide is offtopic, then why did you just defend it? You're either disingenuous or hypocritical.

"the parent was clearly making a similar association, and you know it." Could you please indicate where the association is made in that post?
Also, religion != race. Just thought you might wanna know...
telco and isp, why?
"Technology rules and shapes the human race. He seeks to control all technology." Isn't this from a comic book? It should be.
Feeling negative today?! Relax, eat a hotdog, drink a beer; it's independence day!
gun-free zones. Or violence free zones. Because, you know, those zones work so well in real life.

"you have probably found the most unreliable source for a rejection"
What's important is how credible they are. Suspect their motives, not their credibility.

petulant child is never good, especially when it's an entire nation.
+5! Moderators should be ashamed.

I believe this is my last peeve with FF & Thunderbird. Just give me a dialogue box, "yes, install the newest version."
Gosh I'm pampered, or something like that.
for non-government groups, rarely does 'truly nefarious==money'.
Ohh, and I can hardly wait for that industrial 5" bezel.
mod up. Coming from a religious upbringing, the attitude, atmospherics, and tactics of the Human-Induced-GW crowd sounds to me like dogma.
