You know the reason as to why they respond to these questions with "Why"? Because they can. There is no reason to get depressed if people have not the same insight or opinion as you have. It will make your life a whole lot easier (and less depressing). I am sure that some things these people do you will find a waste of time. Should they get depressed of that because you ask them "Why?" or "What's the point?".
The question of why is just as relevant as why not. The only thing it shows by your response is that you have different priorities. And that is a good thing. Remember: We are all individuals. (... I'm not.)
Every vengeful ex will be able to do so. And concerning the deletion. Once that is known a law will be come into use to keep all the messages send. You know, for the sake of the children and the terrorist.
Now please bomb the shit out of that guys country, I would say we must invade it and liberate it from its oppressors. Well, this probably would mean we will be at war with Greenland in the end.
What about all the other big companies that have no founding father at the helm? That would mean a lot more companies like chemical companies, energy, banks,...
Different people have different priorities and abilities. Just because somebody is able to write content for a website does not mean they can maintain one.
Look at the whole cloud computing thing. Not much different.
This could mess up the TV shows showing the numbers (and selling us soap). And nothing is more important then the speed of which results can be shown. Not even accuracy.
After all, the installing of the server will be the main difference. Once it is installed, they will be basically the same.
I hope you did not bite of more then you could shew. With Apache and MySQL you wioll already have your hands full to make it secure. Add php on top of that, which you do not know and it will become a leaking basked when looking from a security point of view.
You are not even sure about phpBB as it only seems adequate.
The selection of the Linux Distro would be the least of your problems. In the 90-ies many managers asked who had Internet access and the chmuck who raised his hand was the Internet IT specialist from then on with all the responsibilities.
I would reconsider if you are the right person for the job.
I also know you won't listen, so here some tips. (Blatant distro plugging ahead.) 1) Use openSUSE. It installs very easy and has a GUI as well as a CLI to do the installation called YaST and an easy option to select a LAMP and anything else. Also easy to use YaST later for cvonfiguration of other parts, including basic configuration of Apache. Workable via ssh. 2) Also install phpMyAdmin as it is easy to do MySQL admin via the website 3) Learn all there is about securing you php site. 4) Learn to work via CLI 5) Make incremential daily or more often backups and know how to restore them 6) Look if there is somebody who can replace you while you are on a holiday or in hospital or worse, not interested anymore.
If 6) is nobody, don't even bother to start. It will be a short lived project that will die and you will be blamed for letting it die.
Not sure if serious or humorous, so I'll bite: ssh ssh --help info ssh man ssh
That said, I must admit that I seldom learn anything from it. The reason is that all options are shown. While this is good as a reference when you forgot how to use a program, it gives too much information if you want to find out basic usage.
The medium you choose? What if that is not produced anymore? Or never was produced? Many records where never released on 8-track. You are also saying that once you bought a book, you should be able to reproduce it in any way? I understand that you talk about personal use. But then what is personal use. Watching it together with your friend? Friends? How many? 1? 10? 100? 1000? The fact that you have a messy apartment should not be part of the discussion.
I also could make a list that goes on and includes the delivery of the media by the main people of the medium ad perform life for me. I also want a pony.
I would be happy with copyright back to 25 years. All the rest is just nice to have.
What is so special compare to the rest of the world that they can;t fly over it? OK, I could understand that they do not care about any other country in the world, but any other place in the US?
Also: what does 'flying over' mean? How many miles should they avoid it on each side?
What if it is stolen several times from the same kid. Will he be forced to pay for it? What if it is due to 'food money' he needs to pay other kids? Then you would be punishing him by giving a new one.
We should all also agree that in contrast, if a vessel is taken out by simply disturbing GPS signals, that it's as fragile as a paper plane.
Not really. The plane did not crash.It returned safely. To me that means it was able to fly.
To be sure that it was as vulnerable as a paper plane, we must also be sure that in peace time and in ware time, the same precautions are taken. For all I know during a war time mission, they would say 'Turn of the GPS and use other things to get where we drop our bombs'. While now they say 'Hey something goes on, this is not a critical mission, let's go back'.
You can increase it by creating the conflict yourself. In this case make people believe that everybody MUST be original.Having the same idea as somebody else is automatically called cheating. Standing on the shoulders of giants is called cheating.
We even have laws that punish the cheaters: The Berne convention.
Where would we be if Mark Zuckerberg or Shawn Fanning or Bill Gates had written about their ideas in their "intro" computer science classes and had some bullshit like this take away their opportunity to copyright or patent their ideas?
In a much better world, most likely. What you point out is how bad the ownership of ideas is (i.e. copyright and trademarks)

If it would have been me, most likely because I bragged about it.
This is the REAL news.

I would say it is harder for a small company to do so, yet there are many that do: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_companies
That is one big if. Especially when you talk about long term.
So what you are saying is that European software from say, Nordic countries, would be free (as in beer). Oh wait, it already is.
They figured this out several years ago and promptly invented the stamp.
It also is that way in Europe and perhaps other civilized countries.

Interesting point. Are we able to do the same with Google and have them print out everything they have on you? http://www.google.com/about/corporate/company/address.html if you want the European offices to place your request.
It can do that, as long as it follows the laws. One is that they have to tell you what they know about you.
Perhaps the best would be to just put the servers in Russia. That way they would not have to follow pesky European or even American laws.

I shoot people in real life, because games don't give me that opportunity.
I came here to see some great Hard Drive technology being implemented.

and statistics is all this will provide.
It is a neat thing and we all know how inaccurate it is. When even distributions are not sure how many users they have how could a good count exist.
