Well, that's correct. But he has of course been wrongly accused of doing something illegal. That's slanderous, and illegal in itself.
Actually, it would be libelous, not slanderous, since it was written. And only if (a) he had actually been accused of doing something illegal, and (b) the letter was made public by the person doing the accusing, and (c) they were actually wrong.
If it's a public school, the government owns the network, or at least part of it, and that means tax payers have a say in how it is used.
If it's a private school, ignoring any federal funding they still may be receiving, I believe the students that pay for the school should have some say over how the network is run.
At the very least, this student can bring it to everyone's attention, including potential students of this university, who may very well to go to a more clued-in school.
As you can see, your definition is impossible to co-oerce into these situations.
As you didn't see, my definition gave no timetable, nor did I say we should use it for the purpose of creating even more laws. I simply told you my definition for when a fetus becomes a human -- at the point where it can be removed from the host and live. How exactly could the definition get any better?
That's bullshit. We pro-life people aren't trying to take away "reproductive rights" or any nonsense like that.
Uh huh...
My right to swing my fist ends where your nose begins, and a woman's right to "admin" her "box" ends where her unborn child begins.
Define 'unborn child.' Most Republicans use this term to refer even to fetuses of any stage.
I define an unborn child as a fetus at the point where it can be removed from a woman and live. Before that, it is a parasitic tissue and the host should have full control over it.
Liberals are funny... you're all hardcore against the death penalty, except for the "crime" of being conceived at an inconvenient time.
Republicans are funny... they claim to want smaller government, until it comes to our private lives.
Democrats are funny... they claim to want larger government, until it comes to our private lives.
Both sides should live their lives and not worry so much about everyone else's lives.
If you want to kill yourself, that's YOUR choice. Not your mom's.
Wow, poor time to bring this up Mr. Conservative, as your party sides with the delusional parents of Terry Schiavo and decimates her wishes to let her body die long after her mind and soul already has.

Yeah, but did the milk SPLASH when it hit the vacuum tanker?
But the same is true of a core Unix library, like libc. It's exposed to data from wild sources, like DNS records in gethostbyname(), and yet it doesn't seem to have the same history.
Uhh ok, well I wasn't defending IE, but anyway I will on this count. Are you honestly trying to compare a full-featured web browser to libc?
Fact is, IE is a security disaster because it's badly written, not because exposing common rendering components to HTML code in the wild is necessarily a bad idea.
My point was if you have many OS components that rely on this poorly written software and interact with it in a trusted way, you are going to have many more severe security issues than with something like Firefox.
I can't figure it out. Is Dave playing dumb, or is he really dumb?
The guy works for Microsoft, so maybe it is willful ignorance. How else can you explain someone that works on IE from trying to claim it is not part of the OS? Oh, we're going to get down to nit picking. Yes, yes, yes IE is not part of the kernel.
However, Microsoft wasn't too interested in this argument when it was fighting for its life in court, arguing that IE was embedded and could not be removed from the OS.
And now we see, they were right. IE may not be part of the kernel, but due to its use (and trust) by many core applications in Windows, it presents many more security challenges when compared to a standalone app like Firefox.
P.S. After further review, I can see how someone might think I am especially starved for sex and wish to pay for it. This is untrue, I have a wonderful girlfriend. However, thank you for caring.
This is off-topic, but speaking of sex and money...
I would like to expound on George Carlin's conundrum: "Why is prostitution illegal? Selling's legal. Fucking's legal. Why isn't 'selling fucking' legal?"
This leads me to a related thought. Why is it illegal to pay someone to have sex with you, but perfectly legal to do so if you film it and sell it in the porn industry?
The problem you are describing here is not a 302 hijacking. Those sites don't do any redirecting, and they aren't duplicating your site page causing you to be bumped out of the loop. They just happen to have a link to your site and your "motto" on their page. The fact their page comes up before yours does seem stupid, but is unrelated from the 302 hijacking issue.
We finally found the guy that Yahoo has designed their "web portal" for!!! YAHOOO!!!!!
P.S. Google is not "data mining your email." Their ads are personalized based on keywords in your email, as determined by a fucking computer. They are not read by any people, so get over yourself.
Also, anyone who puts their "specs" in their sig line on any forum is a complete knob.
Yeah, and what is with these morons in forums that respond with a single line of content, and then its followed by an 800x400 animated gif of their favorite lead singer rocking out?
More importantly, wtf is wrong with the moderators of these forums that they would allow this kind of nonsense?
Isn't this just Hasbro saying "we'll take the game and the site from you and run it ourselves... then possibly take any money you made from it in the last year"?
Yeah, and what exactly is unreasonable about this? Hasbro owns the game this site is trying to replicate and profit from. Why should this site be able to make money off of Hasbro's game? Would you think it is OK for a site to replicate Half-Life 2 in Java and make money off it?

This is what is wrong with the web and web based applications.

perhaps cowboy-based?
Yippee-kayay-motherfucker?
Honestly, I don't understand, please respond and go into more detail.
I could go on, but I got better things to waste my time on.
Judging by your in-depth knowledge of the "demoscene," I am wagering you actually DON'T have better things to waste your time on.
