Or you can just store your passwords along with when they expire in an encrypted database which you can open with a master-passphrase and/or a key-file (thus using both something you know [the password] and something you have [the key-file, which you should presumably put on some sort of removable storage you keep with you {more brackets}] for authorization purposes). I highly recommend keepass for that job - it's minimalistic (>500Kb), secure, and open sourced if that matters to you. You can easily keep it along with your key-file and database file onto a floppy disk, if you're for some reason lagging behind the times.
This is the second time I'm recommending keepass in this story, but it's just so damned useful. I swear I'm not affiliated with it in any way;-)
I use a 25 character pass-phrase (a meaningful to me quotation that I find easy to remember) along with a 'key-file' to decrypt a database of all my passwords which in turn are relatively long meaningless strings of random ascii characters. That way I only have to remember one passphrase, and can copy paste all my other ones from the database. And if I feel *really* paranoid, I can put my database along with my key file onto a USB dongle to which only I have a physical access to.
If anyone is wondering I use keepass to keep my passwords - it's an open source 'safe' for passwords and posseses pretty much every feature you can wish for while mantaining a minimalist interface and being less than 500kb - enough to fit on a floppy.
So the ability to quickly access a lot of information somehow makes you dumb? Elaborate please.
Intelligence is not the same as knowledge. Knowledge is a kind of fuel. Intelligence is the efficiency of your motor. Some people are walking encyclopedias, being able to soak up great amounts of facts, but without the sufficient intelligence they are just a filled vessel, and nothing more. Someone intelligent, on the other hand, would be able to use even limited information to a great extent - that is a truly useful skill. With google (and by google I really mean easy-to-find-information) it is easier to find information thus reducing the need to 'soak facts in' or memorize details, but this is not an extremely useful skill anyway.
You should really try Foobar2000. Just like iTunes, it is built around the concept of you never having to worry about individual MP3s, but unlike iTunes it has a massive customization potential, along with an MP3 tagger infinitely more powerful than anything I've ever used(and I've used quite a few different ones, including commercial applications).
For proof of the customizability of Foobar, just check out the gallery posted on their forum. No two foobars are the same =) No, I'm not affiliated with the foobar in any way - I'm just trying to open people's eyes for this wonderful program; I was doing the same thing with firefox until I got everyone I know to switch - when another solution is a lot better I just feel compelled to annoy people until they switch

And physics is an abstraction of math, right (physics laws are mathematical in nature)? And all social sciences are abstractions of biology? If you assume all of the above, you can play some interesting mind games; does the fact that math is deterministic imply human behaviour is too?:-)
I would have really thought the forces of the free market would make companies serve, you know, the consumers; companies are supposed to *want to sell* their product. Intentionally crippling it is not something that should be happening. Using resources to *decrease functionality* is counter-productive in every sense imaginable. Those 'inferiorizing' their products shouldn't survive on the market. And this also goes for WinXP 'Starter Edition'.
Raw and uncut. Consider this to be hardcore old-skewl style: before they had them fancy html interpreters they just looked at the text and IMAGINED its formatting.
Is it not possible that since they knew the document would be declassified at some point they wrote it as if it was meant to be for public consumption?
"CT: Several users have noted that the screenshot is likely fake."
Likely? I'd love to see what evidence is needed before it's conclusively determined it's fake.
What you're saying is probably true, however... would you care to provide evidence? What made you think the screenshot was photoshopped (bar the fact you didn't get the same results?)
What the parent meant was that it's not verified it's the 42nd mersenne prime. It's currently the largest one known, but it is possible there's another mersenne prime between the 41st and 42nd, making this the 43rd.

It's okay, I changed it for you :-)

Just shows how messed up the system is.
You're technically wrong as you assume absolute time.
shut the fuck up shut the fuck up shut the fuck up.
I may or may not hate you intensely and with a great passion which in turn may or may not be that of the Christ.

There are already quite a few fast-searching tools available, such as > Avafind</a>, <a href="http://www.copernic.com/">Copernic</a>, and <a href="http://desktop.google.com/">google desktop search</a>. I've found the functionality they offer to be extremely useful, but how can they be a selling point to an OS when they're already out on the market?

You beat me to the punch but I also have a helpful wikipedia link.
This is the normal way russian law works.
Strike 'Russian' from the above and you'll have an accurate description of the Western legal system.

What, you mean like firefox?

There is only one solution...

Er... because price collusion is perfectly legal and ethical. [/sarcasm]
THIS TIME MODIFIED WITH SARCASM TAGS FOR THE SLOW-WITTED!
sarcastic was about right. Price collusion is illegal in pretty much every developed economy as it leads to obvious market failures
I believe in the case of Microsoft it's
Live by the sword, live a good long life!
Where of course, the sword is litigation
