Actually a number of people in the world use guns to defend themselves from wild creatures, and to get food. Quite closed thinking to consider it's only for killing humans.
Cigarettes are used to calm people (apparently, I've never felt the need myself). Social enjoyment and all that. The death is well-warned to the consumer (in Britain anyway). Personally I don't think much of cigarettes, but the consumers (through taxes) do pay a fair bit of the public health bill.
Yep - but the yahoo one's worse. Try viewing with a default background other than white; the google page stays white, while the yahoo page has a white square around the "Yahoo!" graphic and the rest of the page with your default colour. Unprofessional, I reckon.
UltraVNC does have an option to stop this. Never tried it myself... still, maybe it's worth checking out - wouldn't want to sip a hole in space-time (and with a name like "Ultra-" perhaps subspace too...)
I'm pretty sure passwords are sent challenge-response - yes, that's right (see http://www.realvnc.com/howitworks.html#5)
Not the most amazing, but better than nothing. Of course, if you unlock a remote desktop then all those keystrokes are sent plaintext. Unless you tunnel it over SSH.
UltraVNC allows encryption modules with it's DSM (Data Stream Modification) mechanism. As far as I know, you have to use a third-party SSH tunnel for TightVNC and RealVNC.
UltraVNC seems to reject connections occasionally if you don't set the server to Poll Full Screen (but why wouldn't you?).
1. One major problem is that I want all my outgoing e-mail in ONE place (i.e. app). Whatever that is, it has to be easy to search, so I can find out who I told what. If the people I e-mail have got a different system to me, it makes it 100 times (or however many different organisations I contact) harder to sort out.
2. What you're essentially proposing is a change to the messaging infrastructure, which is probably a big reason for AOLs rejection.
3. It would restrict communication to some degree (make it harder), and better communication = more trade.
4. I don't want to have to run 15 different lightweight clients and remember how to use all of their interfaces individually etc!
However, to develop your idea, you _could_ feasibly do something similar, but instead of requiring an entirely new interface, you could require your contact to digitally sign all future correspondence. This does at least fit into existing systems, while still allowing accurate filtering.
A modern computer spends most of it's time idling - at least my desktop does. So presumably, the 500x performance hit isn't as severe as it seems at first glance.

Wow - Oliverthered drinks 20% of Coke overseas sales - all hail!
"Parking the issue harmlessly" ... except for costing all of us some more tax in debating the thing between expensive lawyers and civil servants!
If you're going to be pedantic...
More falsely? Surely "More false THAN".
It's clear why Apple shipped on DVD - the colour of a DVD's data side is nicer, and looks more refined. Makes for a more pleasant end-user experience.
I think you meant "rein in", not "reign-in" :-)
Reign = what a king or queen does
Rein = the rope/leather used to hold back an animal
And why use a hyphen?
Educating Slashdot!
The political compass actually does a much better job of categorising politicians than than left/right can possibly manage.
And when you reach the end of the database:

"Dunno about te US, but over here the best lawyers are definately the judges."
In the UK at least, this is definitely true, seeing as how the judges *are* the best lawyers; it's where you get promoted to if you're good.
OK, so you have an irony detection defect...
Only problem is, your neighbours might not notice (if they're mostly in when you are...). Otherwise interesting.
Am I taking this too seiously?

Why "Golf-ball sized"? Surely this is also to prevent smaller hailstones - causing scratches, small chips etc.
I'm so pleased that you are well versed on the real preferences of Martians :-D
