Better yet, since we already know that it can install programs in some cases, why not have it install a new shell? let your average windows user boot into openbox with some customized key bindings and see what happens. Who knows, some users may even decide they like it and when they're transitioned to linux with fluxbox they might not even notice.
I believe that Uranium ammunition; while efficacious against dragons, demons, and the like; is proprietary Triax technology. I believe the specific ruling is that no other nation has access to it at all, and certainly not the Coalition States. Perhaps your GM is bending the rules a bit?
I just looked out the window which shows the view from my webcam pointed out the window.. and I see no slab-like something hanging in the air in an unbricklike manner. Unfortunately the dolphin check is a bit more difficult to perform in a desert.
well, how about you define it in terms of 700:04 indicating a $700 PC from 2004? You can even use 2004 instead of 04 to avoid that nasty 2104 confusion.
(by the way, doesn't the assault weapon ban being lifted mean that they now have fully automatic assault rifles?)
Quoth the Wik (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Firearms_Ac t): National Firearms Act is an American federal law passed in 1934 that mandates the registration of all Title II weapons - that is, all sound suppressors or 'silencers', all fully-automatic and burst-fire firearms, all rifles with a barrel length less than 16 inches (406 mm) (SBR) and shotguns with a barrel length less than 18 inches (457 mm) (SBS), shoulder fired weapons with an overall length less than 26 inches (660 mm), weapons classified as "Any Other Weapon" (AOW) and weapons classified as "destructive devices" (DD). For weapons with folding, collapsing or telescoping stocks, the overall length is measured with the stock fully extended.
Which is to say: They're not precisely illegal they just have to be registered, and the registration is neither cheap nor easy to acquire.

Having paid more attention to your post the second time through, I do like the term "biscuit" for computer criminals, but that might be too glamorous a term, so let's just call them vandals, punks, and "idiots who want to go to federal pound-your-ass prision":]
Why should computer criminals be called "Crackers"? What have they done to deserve their own special descriptor? Nothing constructive. computer criminals should be laeled as criminals with the nearest normally-applying label. If you break into a machine without proper authorization and make off with privae or sensitive data, that probably falls under some existing laws against expionage. same applies to any computer crime. If there is no pre-existing label for the crime, why not? is it something that can only be done with computers? if so then is it actually a crime? and if it is, label it and apply the proper label to those who perpetrate the act.

Rest of the what? I'm an American and an insensitive clod, I have no knowledge of lands beyond our borders.
Are you kidding? If they get a room we'd have to stop watching.
Or for very small values of 100?
do you mean something like:

or strip out the X bits, make the Go bits console based and cal the whole distro "Go in the Shell"
is it dark and are you likely to be eaten by a Grue?
it's not the crater I'm worried about, it's the mushroom cloud. What if North Korea sees it and decides we might be testing atomic weapons?

You're thinking of our home machines, but our work machines run the winapps just fine without any not-an-emulator emulators.
Haha, yeah that's the stuff :)
Hostess?
where's the cream filling?
I find it disturbing that this gets the highest moderation assigned to a post of mine to date... it's.. not that funny.
but speaking of unixen boxen might annoyxen some peoplexen, and confusexen others... xen.
I've found that the slashdot defuglifier (http://www.electricstate.com/articles/defuglify-s lashdot) works wonders for my enjoyment of the IT and Games section (that blue annoys me for some reason)
For the Phantom Game System?
I have one of those. and I've used two of them (but not the one I have). I also happen to be under 30.
because in Soviet Google, article posts you.

I belive you are correct, and I understand that it was shipped to and processed in Japan.

Wow that was incoherent of me.
