"I wonder what those "selected portable music players" are. The whole huge variety of them that support.RA?"
from TFA: "However, neither portable service works with Apple's popular iPod digital music player. And both services require that the portable music player employed have Microsoft Corp.'s Janus digital-rights management system installed. Janus periodically checks to see if a subscription is current. If it's not, the songs are no longer playable.
The iRiver H10 and the Creative Zen Micro are among the players that include Janus."
Obviously, I must point out the irony that an Anonymous Coward would say: "Nevertheless, someone other than me using my name harms me in ways I cannot know."
But, seriously, my comment was designed to undermine a specific part of what I believed to be someone else's fallacious argument, and nothing more should be assumed.
/. renders fine on the linux version of firefox and, it seems reasonble to me to assume that many people use linux while on/. I've had several problems with firefox under windows, which is why I filed bug reports and then mostly stopped using windows for internet browsing. I've never had a single problem with firefox under linux, and that could be because the windows version of firefox isn't very stable or because windows isn't very stable.
The article seems to indicate that only the FROM part of the emails were phony. The links actually point to the school's server, and no valuable information was recorded, i.e. the passwords were not recorded by some other server.
They were given permission only to gain information that was already in the public circle, and they only gathered email addresses which are probably available to anyone from the school's website.

Pause you who read this, and think
for a moment of the long chain of

that would never have bound you,

I use OOo to make patent documentation, and it has never let me down. I had some trouble with image anchoring initially, but it worked beautifully once I learned how to use it.

You might be interested to know that the german verb fingen means, roughly, to seize or grasp. This is in reference to your sig.

Currently, the score on the post is 0, offtopic. Clearly, whoever is modding doesn't watch southpark.

Oh, I better go get my broom!
That's interesting, since linux can look pretty much any way you would like it to. You've seen Debian? With Nautilus, Gnome, and X11 for example?
right on, brother

I have a floppy drive under my desk which I use to scratch my toes while I work at my computer.

And this comment is in lieu of such a joke?
