...FLAC is lossless. So is WAV. o.O Explain the difference between your example and his. Or, alternately, explain how converting mp3>wav>mp3 will create loss?
IRYAAL (I realise you are a lawyer) but doesn't the parent post specifically say that works of visual art are fair game for photography? I kinda don't get how the part of the law you cite overrides the part described by the parent.
I didn't say that ATI didn't support it. They do. But nonetheless it still didn't work. I tried installing them myself, had a friend (a linux guru) try it, and: nada. nothing. squat. It didn't work at all. Maybe I should give it another go, but why bother when the computer I'm building will have a 6800 ultra?
But if the communist (I hope you don't object to that term, and no, I'm not using it as insult - i consider myself a communo-capitalist) sacrifices floor space for Mrs. Potolsky and Mr. Davidson, they (the store owner) are sacrificing their ability to provide a service to others, i.e. the majority. Thus by providing a service to a few, he's screwing over the majority (in a small way, but no smaller than the capitalist way). So if he really wants to be helpful to his community, he'll do the same thing that the money-maker does, and remove the blank DVD's and kosher food. How can he say that Mr. Davidson deserves his damn DVDs more than the whole Smith family deserves their cereal? Well, of course, he can't. So you end up with the same result: the minority (in terms of taste in products) has to find alternative sources, possibly at a higher cost.
But Windows increases productivity by providing the necessary tools for work in the information age. Speed, reliability and, most importantly, M$'s dedication to quality keep users coming back.
If you can't understand this simple fact, well, you're a communist.
Will people stop submitting articles about how computers aren't getting faster, Moore's law, software bloat, or anything else that everybody already knows about?
Actual query results on AJ, the last time I used it, where pretty crap. On top of that, the UI is annoying and phrasing your query in the form of a question doesn't seem to actually make a difference in results. It's kind of sad that they used old Jeeves (one of my favorite literary characters) for such a bad product. Oh well.
So wait, are you saying that the guy who owns a coffee shop with an insecure WiFi network should just let it be, saying that "It's not secure, but that's ok because people should be aloud to break rules once in a while."
This seems to me to be a strange way of thinking.
You don't get it. Truck sized security hole. Java's better. C++ and C. Microsoft.
(Suddenly, the article author realizes that using silly absurd buzzwords tethered to a vague sense of Microsoft being wrong doesn't quite get everyone to use Java.)
Yep, those too. I said the same thing and got called a fucking spastic by someone who didn't know what they're talking about.
But yeh. All those apps, according to this article, are unsafe.
Go figure.
And where the shit does it actually say this? Where did you gleam this morsel of knowlegdge? Where can I, in fact, verify that didn't read.NET and think "web web web web" and decide to call me a fucking spastic?
A hunting rifle can be used to kill people. Does that mean the trigger should only work after inserting a valid and current hunting license? Yes. Well, no, but no in a yes kind of way.
Well, it's too bad, but apperently we have to stop using C. Yeah, I know, sorry boys, but some unknown group from a dank corner of the intertron said C causes security issues, so just throw out all your games, your hard drive, all that GNU software... Remember, Microsoft is ALWAYS wrong.
O.o Either you've let Microsoft warp your opinion of the words "major" and "problem" or you're an extreme rarity. Or you waste a bunch of money on third party security apps you shouldn't have to buy.
But I'm going to interpret your post as "I don't know how to use Linux", especially since my post didn't actually use the word "Linux". Or that you don't want to go through the trouble of dual-booting. Probably that one.
Yeh I was singing the same tune five months ago, even when I had all my stuff disappear via bugs, had aspects of the game change regularly, rendering previous work completely useless, and generally not having the "live-like-fucking-han-solo" experience I was expecting. Not to mention the horrible "grind", the lack of content in places where it should be most, boring randomly generated missions, and the imfamous economy, which looks good on paper but in actuality it's a turd sandwich because all of your stuff is completely fucking worthless.
Long story short - SWG is the worst MMO ever made. EVER.
But SOE has said before they might make another SWG with a different subtitle. If that's done by people who actually know what's fun, then I'll look into it.

Some employees don't need the Internet at all.
:)
Solution: uplug their ethernet cord.
Yes. Thanks :)
Those are onions.

Will you enlighten a layman?

While simultaneously ensuring that you have an unweildy, annoying time trying to surf the web with your outdated club of a web browser?
:P just kidding. I'm posting from lynx as well. :D

You forget the all-important possibility that they just don't work, as happened with my shiny new x800 xt. No more linux right now :(

Now, please, rip this page out of Slashdot. Yes, you heard me, rip. it. out.

I laughed for about a minute straight after reading that. kudos

Solution: dual-boot, or if you don't have odd gaming tastes, use cedega.
Hard drives cost more than that.
