Do you have any idea what how slim the chances really are to be killed by terrorists in the US? Even after 9/11 it's next to none. You are far more likely to be in a car accident, die of cancer, get a heart attack or being shot by a family member.
This terrorist "threat" is no reason to take away our freedoms and slowly install a police state where the citizens are the "threat". Sure we cannot just ignore the threat but I for one prefer a little "unsafer" world over privacy invading security
Im not sure this proves anything, since you could still pierce skin with these claws given enough force to do so, and then you could start "cutting" and do some disemboweling.
Am I the only one to see this or am I wrong?
I think one of the reasons they may be pushing digital sooner, is because going digital offers easier deployment of several copy protections.
But then again the rule of thumb will continue to apply to copy protections on digital material: "If someone can watch it,hear it or recieve it, it can be copied". It just becomes more and more of a challenge, and might request analog methods to so.
Just some random thoughts ^^
I recommend quitting your job when your bored for more than a month straight and your pay doesnt buy you souls. If its boring and you can buy souls just hang in there until you have "enough" money, then find some more fun/satisfying job
heh well Im running firefox and my software firewall 'detected' and blocked some kind of an attack from the site, think its just a fluke though.

For the sake of humanity dont vote for bush, far to often when he has to talk without a pre-written speech, he does a terrible mistake, he seems to be a puppet for fellows like ashcroft, rice and more, and dont vote for someone that managed to be the president after losing an election.
Also dont vote for someone that supports dirty campaigns like the attacks he (and his team) have made against kerry, you may not like kerry much he will be a better president than Bush, that I promise;)
hmm It can look alot better for one, and you can be lazy when you're using a GUI, you can use just the mouse for some time if you want.
When coming home from school and Im really tired, I like to be able to use mostly my mouse for a while.
But some computer system like monitor systems, Rental store systems and others can do with Text-mode graphics and some things you just do alot faster in console.
Long live GUI and console/text-mode;)
This seems to be nice step in firefox development, but some evil aspx sites, refuse to work properly even now. Still even if one has to use IE from time to time, Firefox is definetly worth it;)
Am I the only one who thinks WMM looks abit too much like wma or wmv, windows multi-media, or just windows media murder.
Bah maybe I should just get some sleep
I think its a bit weird that no-one here thinks that Final Fantasy 8 is a great game, and not many who appriciate the FF:spirits within movie. Call me weird but I loved them both, Final Fantasy : spirits within had a huge effect on me the first time I saw it. Was fascinated for days, and not because it looked great (saw it first in... well not so good image quality version). Just the spirit of the movie and the feeling of the world, I loved it all, and voice acting was well done by all imo.
When it comes to Final fantasy 8 I think its great because of many things, Its graphics, characters, music, atmosphere and how I seemed to understand feeling of the world very well. I must admit that I never finished FF7, maybe I should, but if its better it doesnt make any less of FF8. I have only seen bits of FF9 and X and I dont like the chars,atmosphere and all that as well as 8.
Just wanted to express my oppinion on those two, and I must say I think FF7 movie will be good non-the less, now is just to decide, complete the game or movie first hmm...
Although rather strange and offtopic material you seem to be able to write and perhaps write something ontopic here(equally as detailed) and fiction/lifestories elsewhere;)
Well it is known that most phone traffic is monitored and process in search of several keywords, but text messages make this alot easier, one not too computer can analyse one huge amount of text per minute while multibilliondollar machines are used to process phonecalls. So the result is spying on people is lot easier with text messages.

I dont understand what the fuzz is about, around broadband over powerlines. It has been in use here in iceland for quite the while now, and my experience of it, is that its laggy (around 500 ms) and the speed is rather unstable, since its based on how many are using it at the moment. I admit its rather cool to connect your modem into a powersocket instead of a phonesocket but its not much more than that, here at least adsl 1,5 mbit is cheaper, and faster, the only thing power has over that is it uploads as fast as it downloads.

I can smell a new X-Files spinoff called The X-Patents where Sculder and Mully investigate long lost patents and find the evil people breaking them :D
