The second half was worse, it was where all the horrible dialogue and wooden acting was. Watch it until the battle bits end, they're the most fun part.
It was a good idea. Linux is a bad idea, and people defend it because they're too caught up with it. The scsi driver belongs in place of the block device layer but linus' ego prevents him putting it there, yet at the same time he rejects reiser4 because it messes up the architecture of the kernel.
It doesn't work because if you disagree on a meta-mod you lose modding ability. And if you mod a good post up but it has an overall negative rating, you will get M2ed down. The M2 system promotes groupthink, mostly the first moderation you receive determines your final score, +5 if it's positive, -1 if it's negative.
Huh? You're saying you have no problem with the Native Americans being conquered and their lands becoming part of the USA. So how can you have a problem with the Tibetans being conquered and their lands becoming part of China? That's the point the grandparent was making.
Well, my objection was mainly that the post I was replying to said all 3 had to be met before you would write it in house. Which is simply not the case.
Point 1 is only relevant one way. If there is no off the shelf solution then you can't use an off the shelf one, but just because there is an off the shelf product doesn't mean you use it. You look and see what it costs and whether it is worth it, and if you can do it cheaper in-house then you do that.
The only thing that's valuable to a business is the bottom line. Everything comes down to that. If there is value for your company in doing it one way, the only possible reason for that is that it is an overall benefit to your bottom line.
All companies start with zero funds, so by that logic they wouldn't do anything. You raise capital various ways. If doing it in-house will be profitable for you, it will be possible to get the initial cost, from investors or loans or something.
No, 2. is the only one that matters. If making it yourself is better for your bottom line, you do that. If buying it off the shelf is better for your bottom line, you do that. That is your only consideration.
Some of those are issues, but I got my dvd drive playing faster and more easily in linux than in windows. What problems are you having? I've used xine, vlc and ogle and every dvd I've tried has worked fine in all of them, including the menus.
Like it or not Linux is also an OS, namely the fork of GNU using the Linux kernel. You can claim it isn't all you like, but that's what the word has come to mean.
Right on some of them, but you're wrong on 2). Refusing to support non-gpl drivers is a fault on the part of linux, plain and simple. MS doesn't insist you have to use their license for any windows drivers, they give a stable ABI for everyone to use, and that is A POINT WHERE THEY ARE SUPERIOR TO LINUS.
Yep, those are the default looks. Kind of funny that kde has moved away from shinier defaults at the same time windows moved to its current fluorescent appearance.
Then the banking system is broken and needs fixing. If he can do this, and it makes money for the phisher, the phisher could have done it to start with.
Lol. It's quite simple, the people who's job it is to do the scanning simply won't look at guys, fat people and old people, except when they have a supervisor watching (which will be pretty rare). They know terrorists aren't going to try anything, they're just sitting there because they're paid for it. When people looked at how London's new CCTV network was being used they found 80% of the cameras being watched was when there were couples behaving intimately there.
I think you're being distracted by september 11. There are still people wanting to get money, or have some of their friends released from prison - and being realistic, that's more likely than another planes-flying-into-buildings attack. Hostage situations are quite often resolved with none or few deaths among the hostages - in this situation, a vigilante with a gun makes things worse, not better, for the other passengers
Whilst you may have a point, shooting someone in the back with an illegal weapon while they are fleeing is hardly innocent. Sure he was a burglar, but that doesn't make it right to kill him.

Mozilla isn't cross platform, it's a separate platform.
I don't think that second con is an issue, you'd use a hash table rather than the emails directly.
Maybe the purpose of lists like this is to suggest common words for the dictionaries to consider adding? IIRC Mirriam-Webster ran the thing

Don't forget the guns. They're the side defences off a star destroyer, and very illegal for civilians.

I'd be surprised since ubuntu doesn't include kontact.
They won't, because Theora is too patented. They're developing their own open format called Dirac, it's up on sourceforge if you want to help out

It's the common use of the word. That's all that's needed for that to be what the word means.

You'll have trouble when she comes across a shockwave game though. Here's hoping macromedia release a linux port soon.

Then RTFA, because they *did* not react for months.
Read two posts down. Seems it's justified.

Sure, but what if someone who's taking credit card details is spoofing your IP? The vigilantes won't wait to see it proved beyond reasonable doubt.
