It's not as if America or any other country tried to enforce their own laws in foreign courts.
But America does have a new and interesting habit of kidnapping people they don't like and imprisoning them without trial or due process (gitmo, cia prisons in europe) or exporting them to "allies" (maher arar, syria) who's definitions of torture are even more wishy-washy than GWB's. The slippery slope is back... but it leads to fascism.
Hmm.. thought 80 columns was available by default on the ][+... maybe it was a later revision...
Ahh... Wolfenstien and Wizardry, did it get any better?
The OP's analysis is excellent, but frought with writing that goes beyond pretentious. It's just bad. Disorganized, rambling, semi-coherent and full of useless jumbles of letters that communicate nothing.
If you want to publish copyrighted material, you need to make arrangements with the copyright owner. Not if you want to read, view or listen to it yourself; or even make exerpts from it in certain cases.
So... is creating EXACT copies and distributing them, or ALLOWING them to be distributed publishing? If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck...
The B-25 was not a jet, had a range of only 1200 miles and therefore a lot slower, lighter and not quite so full of fuel as the a fully laden passenger jet designed to cross the continent.
Explain why the only three steel and concrete buildings in history to collapse from fire do it on a single day in the same square mile.
Forgive my ignorance if I'm wrong, but weren't the towers also the first skyscrapers ever to put themselves in the path of passenger jets? Do we really have any idea what's supposed to happen in those circumstances? (But that doesn't really explain WTC7 does it...)
Not that that really makes me feel comfortable about the whole thing... too many unanswered questions... too much money made in the "war" that followed... too many civil liberties trampled on in the name of fighting "terrorists"...
Sadly, either we'll never know what really happened, or we already know and it's just too far out there for us to believe. Either way the conspiracy theories will linger on like Elvis, Pyramids on Mars and the Kennedy brothers.
We live in an age where some pathetic mouthbreathing pantswetters are so fucking scared that they want a fascist, rigidly coontrolled police state to prevent the terrifying prospect of a bunch of people showing up wearing the same color shirt.
Those are the instructions... and as soon as I knew that It was quick and easy. (And almost painless...) As a software "professional" it was no real challenge. The problem is that you're all assuming that Linux users are as competent.
How long do our casual users have to point out USABILITY issues before we stop being apologists?
which can be a problem for some Linux users (such as CS students like myself)
As a CS student you should be able to get the sun JRE/JDK going on your linux box. (I speak as a former CS student who just did it... (again)...) I found it took about an hour to find useful instructions and less than five minutes to follow them.
That being said, I agree that having the option of installing a real sun JRE/JDK with apt-get or rpm WITHOUT dropping to the command line or hacking configuration would be a BIG bonus and widen the audience beyond CS students and linux gurus.
I hear you... I spent an entire hour to get the 1.5 JDK and Tomcat running on my Ubuntu box last night... very disheartening. Perhaps I should just stick to Eclipse RCP and forget all about J2EE.
Todays TLAs were brought to you by the letters I, B, M and the number 42.
Slashdot Mirror
Deliberate reference or a happy accident? I need to dig up a copy of this for the kids.

So... somewhat above average for Slashdot then?
That's an interesting theory but do you have any evidence to back it up?
But not usually that effectively.
I'm using that line at the next marketing meeting.
Why is this a troll? 3.1 was released a year ago, 3.2 has been out for almost a month. Fully functional beta builds have been available for months.
An article this out of date is downright embarrassing, or should be to whoever approved it.
Windsor? ewwww.... ewwww... icky....
Wow... he's not kidding. It sounds like it's time for you all to migrate north as political refugeees... we still have democracy in Canada.

Yes... it's a witch... damned Python fans.
The Empire State Building got hit by a B-25

FYI: That wooshing noise was the joke going over your head.
Now just how long before congress and the president is outsourced to india?
It can't be too far off, you've been outsourcing your comedy from Canada for years.

where we didn't blame every single thing we could irrationally connect to the President on him, and get modded up for it
Exactly! That's what Microsoft was for, and we loved it!
Kids these days...
you pretty much suck at being a computer nerd

are you using something that's "10 years behind" like OpenOffice
Certainly not 10 years behind... My kids have been using OpenOffice for all their schoolwork for the past two school years and I'm yet to see a BSOD.
There's a lot to be said for being cheap, reliable, portable and standards based.
Amen brother!
the tone of your post apologizes for human rights abuses in China because you see some abuses in America
No... he's highlighting a parallel between a communist regime and the rightist Bush administration.
Can we please beat this dead horse a little more?
You must be new here.
