Yes. You may not be sure if a site is malicious or not, without visiting it. And some sites may become malicious suddenly because of all those syndicated ads around.
I'm sure the purpose of roads is written somewhere in some government directive. If it is there, it surely doesn't mention joyriding, but mentions transportation. So yeah, build yourself a race track for your joyriding purposes.
I don't think anyone wants the masses of 'average joes' on Linux, yet.
The Linux user base is layered, today's users will be tomorrow's developers. And yesterday's users are today's developers.
And the very first users of Linux are now kernel devs:) So, it will take some time until an 'almost average joe' can program Linux to be useful for a 'less than average joe'. But, the trend is there.
Yes, i just wasted two days on downloading it, burning it to a DVD and installing it on two different machines, just to write the previous note on/.
Obviously i did all the fuss to vent some steam. Obviously it wasn't because Ubuntu isn't that easy to use, right? My problem is that a GPL'd driver back from 2005 didn't find its way into the kernel of 7.10, and yeah, i used to own my machine's root password. If ubuntu does it differently, it isn't my problem, i will just use something that i got used to:) In other words, something that is easy to use (to me). And that's what i said, it wasn't easy to me, i got something easier.
Well, none of the linuxes are perfect. I tried Ubuntu 7.10, but it didn't even tell me the root password:) Of course it didn't notice the network hardware (even though there is gpl sourcecode for it back from 2005 - attansic network card) Funny how people say it is easy to install, i used slackware, redhat, suse before, and i didn't have this kind of problem before.
Now i use OpenSuse 10.3, but it didn't want to install on an older machine of mine, so this was kind of luck:) It is lucky there are so many linux distros, one should happen to work for you.
If there wasn't Vista, i wouldn't have asked for an XP when buying a new computer (i would have used a pirated version dual booted with linux). But with Vista around, I somehow felt compelled to buy XP! I really did that! So, yeah, these MS overlords are really, really tricky.
Without following standards M$ abuses its monopoly power over the desktop oS, extending it to other fields, stiffling anyone else regardless if this someone else is proprietary or FOSS person.
FSFE doesn't like M$'s abuse. Nor does Opera. It is easy as pie.
People didn't choose. They were forced to choose. They had little options, when most computers come with M$ and webdesigners make their sites to follow IE's broken (and not open) standards.
Is it important if it is disorganized or not? The speed of light limit should apply there too. Regardless of range, regardless if more particles move in the same direction or not. The individual particles cannot move faster than a certain limit.
AVG for example shows nwn2main.exe (Neverwinter Nights 2 from Obsidian) as false positive. Sure, it is partly because of the inane copy protection, but AVG should make some tests before issuing such a crap.
Luckily the 'infected exe' is recoverable, and after disabling the resident shield it will run. But then, why do you have AV in the first place?
Are software patents. I wonder how their quality could be any good, when ones like 'string comparison based on address' can sneak in their portfolio. Or some of the FAT patents.
Easy, the Intelligent Designer put it into every male mice.

Well, if they are different between 2 copies, then washing the differences off is pretty simple.

It surely mitigates the slashdot effect.
That's why they mentioned plumbers in TFA :)
Easily replaceable plumbers.
4. Chairs spotted on Earth orbit.
For treasure hunters.
Well, i think a God setting a few universal constants and booting up His Great World Simulation is definitely an plausible God to me.
:)
A God (or gods) sweating on putting all the dinosaur bones into the soil just to 'trick us' is plain pathetic.
I'm not a believer in any of these 'gods', but i can live with the former
People who deny evolution based on their god fantasy need to wake up.

I hope they will get their taste of the GPL in court.
Or at least WinXP?
No?
Bad.
Yeah thanks, this is great to know :)
If i had network at the moment i could have asked this earlier, and i would still have Ubuntu (maybe)...

One species? Guess you mean the one species would be humankind then :)

High carbon steel isn't magnetic or what?

The individual particles cannot move faster than a certain limit.
So, if there is a speed limit, there must be a heat limit as well.
Whichever side burns, i'm happy. Mutual destruction is most welcome.
Maybe because no one would bribe anyone to buy linux, the profit margin is thin.

DOH, they just bought one more research.
