Why is this modded down? The man's correct. I guess he didn't explain well enough.
Just giving a damn good reason isn't enough. If I wrote down the solution to world hunger, stuck it in an envelope, sealed it, and stuck it in my sock drawer, I have not solved world hunger. I just created a POTENTIAL solution. Geeks are talking to each other about solutions, but not letting people, the masses, know.

GNAA pledges aid to Katrina victims Associated Press, September 11 2005
In an early-morning press conference, reclusive GNAA president
timecop declared that the Gay Nigger Association of America will
contribute to hurricane Katrina disaster relief efforts. He issued a statement
describing the efforts being undertaken to rush relief to New Orleans' former
residents, many of whom are black, gay, or both. "My heart tears at the sight
of so many flooded niggers", timecop said.
The GNAA is contributing a currently-unknown quantity of sperm, intended to
prevent starvation and malnutrition. The sperm is to be delivered this Monday
to shelters across the nation. "We are having a non-stop wankathon. I believe
we can do this, I believe in my niggas. We will not fail to feed NOLA's hungry
refugees." Many have reporters present at the conference questioned the
nutritional value of the semen being collected, eliciting angry stares and
lip-licking from their host. timecop did not directly answer the questions,
saying "Who the hell are you? I don't see you vigorously beating off to save
the niggers!"
The next item on the list was free wireless internet spanning the Southern
Louisiana region, allowing access to GNAA's Lastmeasure online service.
Lastmeasure is provided free of charge. It is widely touted as "better than
FEMA" in the charitable relief field. Lastmeasure surpasses FEMA's disaster
aid service by being accessible to any
graphical browser on any operating system. Lastmeasure will be the only
website available, as all other http requests will be redirected. This measure
is intended to minimize use of GNAA.net wireless for other than disaster-relief
LM. The conference ended with an emotional outburst from GNAA president
timecop, crying out, "so many dead, rotting black shits".

I joined November 2004 and still have an active account, although since I'm using gamecards there has been time where I have not been 'active'. The nice thing is since I buy them on amazon, I actually pay less than I would to have a recurring credit card subscripion, and I only pay when i want to play.
I like running around the world, and I have almost all the gryph points in the Eastern Kingdoms (I am level 43 on that character). It's an adventure getting there, and with so many ways you can get to level 60 it has quite a bit of replayability. The warcraft lore, reading little books on the shelves, is nice too. You get to learn about why you are doing this for the alliance/horde, what their roots were, what the history is. It's good for motivation.
Often times I've seen bundled downloads basically say "Oh, you wanted that component too? Since we don't think that many people are going to use it, we have to download it from our site now".
Also, Google Pack.
I tried to start one once in another virtual game that nobody plays, it didn't pan out very well. I really had no way to accumulate any form of interest on the money like real world insurance agencies do (keep it in banks).
Until taking money out of SL (to place in an interest earning account) and putting it back in doesn't result in a loss (you have to sell it cheaper than you buy it for, so 1,000,000 to cash then back results in 1,000,000), or at least a loss that's small enough that the bank interest will absorb it, then it's just not feasable.
The other commenter got it right, my video card overheats and then the machine BSODs. Usually in video games. I have a 9" fan i have aimed at the case which I turn on when gaming, to keep it from doing that (moving heat away from idling at the card), and it helps a lot.
I've personally experienced blue screens in windows, usually it's because the system overheated. Or, if you're talking about the "reboot instead of show a blue screen", ok. Windows randomly reboots. Hows that for a feature? I think it's great.
But really, I don't have a problem with this. Why not use one of those password vault type programs which allow users to have a master password to access their other passwords?

If only so many apps the gov bought weren't so crappy and didn't require the user to be administrator for them to run I speak from experience too :(
Make it an extension to google desktop and add an RFID scanner to this guy and by golly you've got a money tree on your hands.

Ok. Go to the page and look on the right, and there's a standalone quicktime installer. Guess what! iTunes not included.

Apparently the humor went over everyones head here, but this made me laugh out loud. Literally.
How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could, Chuck Wood?
wood isn't going to cut it.
if a woodchuck could get this joke
then again theres a guy named Chuck Wood and i really wonder how bad he was tormented

Nice try trolling though.
But really, I don't have a problem with this. Why not use one of those password vault type programs which allow users to have a master password to access their other passwords?
My password vault happens to be Firefox, though.
Because then you could use it to hold the door to the kitchen closed and she wouldn't be able to do it anymore?
If you've read the book, this is from that.
