Think about it, what parent mentions could really have a serious impact on your life, even if you, for great justice, never use Windows. Parent deserves "Insightsful", not merely "Funny", and definitely not "Flamebait"!
Is attack really the literal translation or are there some subtleties of language lost in the translation? "attack" seems like a loaded word to use in a poll, IMHO.
I'd rather use "crack down on". But you never know about those pirates, they may have cannons and stuff! So mabye an attack is appropriate after all.;-)
Don't forget you have automatic saves every 10-15 mins and when that takes more then just a second or two it is a really major pain and interruption to the job.
What do you mean? Do your automatic saves freeze your word processor or something?! That in itself is bad behaviour (bug, even?). You should of course be able to go on with your editing while saving. Then you will perhaps not notice even if it takes a minute.
Limiting yourself to open source limits your choices.
Many of us care about the freedom that comes with free software. Compare with free speech and free press. In the long run, it's really non-free software that limits ones choices. Compare again with free speech in this example:
Someone offers you to come live in their country, but only under the condition that you keep very quiet about your own opinions and never criticize the government. Initially, it may seem that standing firm in your belief in free speech would limit your choices -- you would have to turn down the offer to live in that country. It is not hard to see, however, how abandoning free speech is what really would deprive you of your freedom. Who knows, after some time you might not even be able to leave their country, would you wish to do so.
Big problem is the folds... metal tends to fatigue fairly quickly, so the wallet split along the seams in a few weeks.
I realize it's not as nifty as hacking your own, but mabye an off-the-shelf metal wallet would do. I'm a bit worried about the seams where the two parts come together, though.:-/
It takes 30,000 years to grow 1 cubic inch of coral
That doesn't make much sense. What happens if you have two reefs growing simultaneously? Do they grow at half speed as to stay within this speed limit? Or, for that matter, what happens if you have two spots on the same reef, growing simultaneously (which they of course do)?
is it possible to buy and use this cellphone in the US with a normal US carrier?
I think so, at least one of their phones. That one uses the three bands 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 1900 MHz. The former two is used in europe (during a call the phones switches frequency bands depending on which one gives the best connection, or something similar), while the latter is used in USA (among other places, I think). That indicates that it is possible to use it in the states too.
Their products page reveal that they have two models (both with encryption). Of course, this is something you _could_ build yourself on top of an ordinary mobile phone, but naturally, it's convenient to just buy one. (On a side note, one of the models is bloated with a camera.)
This is also the scarier comparison. 'cause for all of his efforts Hitler never reached a fraction of Stalin's body count.
Sorry to intevene here, sir, but I need to put forward a very important issue. Are the body counts of Stalin and Hitler adequately described by integers? One might argue that they are, and then, par consequence, Hitler's body count is indeed a fraction of Stalin's.
He probably means that you should select one of "whether it's" and "why it's" and by that way arrive at "whether it's slow" or "why it's slow", respectively.

I mean, on what area should one compete with them?
Oh, the display is not included.
..a script might do better.
In a swedish article on the same site, one of the pirates states that they will open again, abroad (outside Sweden, that is, duh).

Btw, I'm sure you just wanted to use that letter -- "ï".

Why should that be anymore legitimate?!
