    No, he is just a pragmatic...

  2. Re:TROLL ALERT (OT, real OT, more like OTIII) on Microsoft Open To Class Action Suits, Judge Rules · · Score: 1

    Hey, how many people get killed in car crashes nowadays? Should cars be outlawed then?
    Drinking ten liters of water can kill you too, does water have to be outlawed then. No in two ways, water in itself is not addicting, it is just a bare necessity (hmm, spellchecking?), second reason, water is not addicting as nicotine is. (Yeah I know I do smoke too.)
    What my point is? Well, people should do whatever they like to do, not whatever Joe Co (JCOR) or Joe Government (JGOR) (sorry Yahoo News's too funny) would like us to do. The other side of that is the fact that people have to accept the consequences of their deeds and not try to shove it of to some laywer trying to grab a few pennies or bucks to keep the customer satisfied. If you kill someone you go to jail, if you smoke you die of longuecancer.

    (Hmm, I think I should have been posting to another topic)

    An untuned radio at the line-in of your sound-card? If the radio is tuned a hacker may guess which station you're currently listening.

  4. Re:USB? on Linux 2.4 Feature Freeze · · Score: 1

    It would be really nice if we had USB support under Linux 2.4. I'd like to have some networking without much additional hardware.

  5. Re:Good to hear. on Teen Sued for /Linking/ to MP3s · · Score: 1

    If you read articles like this, it is nice to realize there counties around. still, who do not pay much attention to copyrights or other legal stuff.
    I do not thinks it is a good thing to give people free access to copyrighted things like music. On the other hand I think record companies aearning to much money from records they are selling. Just for asking to much money for the records they bring out.
    It has been said before, record companies should start thinking of a future where they are not able to count abnout the money they would earn. Just like a normal democracy!

  6. Re:I think on GNUstep 0.6.0 · · Score: 1

    Window Maker is GNUstep's official windowmanager, but it does not install any parts of GNUstep. Instead it uses a toolkit (WINGs), which is seperately developed from GNUstep. It just looks like GNUstep (NeXTstep).

    WM only needs X to do its job, although it understands KDE and GNOME hints, so there is no need to install KDE, GNOME or GNUstep to run Window Maker.
