Not the "same bang". A larger, more destructive bang. The largest bombs built were fission bombs because fusion was not capable of producing that kind of power. Cleaner bombs were just a nice side effect.
You're supposed to use a podcast reader. You take the URL of the podcast's RSS feed (in this case it's here and you add that into your favorite reader. If you're using Linux, most well-featured music players will have the ability to read it, including Rhytmbox and amaroK. IIRC, Akregator may have done podcasts too even though it's not a media player. Macs have iTunes and I have no idea what's out there for Windows. Anyways, if you really wanted to get the audio without using a reader, just point your browser at the feed and read it. It's XML so it's sort of human-readable.
P.S. Pointing my browser at this feed, they intercept your request and redirect you to a download page. Convenient.
During install it said it could run X at 1024x768, 800x600, and 640x480. Yet when it came up it was in 640x480 mode and I could not change it - 640x480 at 60Hz were the only selections.
That happened to me when I installed Ubuntu on my sister's computer. Some monitors can't use higher resolutions unless the HorizSync and VertRefresh rates are configured in/etc/X11/xorg.conf, something the installer does not do by default. I used a Knoppix CD to find out what they were since it prints them out at bootup, but with a quick google I don't see any mention of standard utilites to find them. Try booting from the LiveCD again and looking at its generated xorg.conf.

No. Taiwan is the remnant of China's old democratic government.

People read the magazines to have a taste of stardom and fantasize what they would do if they were as glorious as the stars. Videogames don't offer that about their characters, their limited to the world of the game.
Video game characters aren't movie stars, but half the point of most video games is to be someone you're not.

If social pressure did not exist, Seinfeld and Dilbert would not be funny, they would just be documentation. If society treated more of that sort of behaviour with instant, on-the-spot beatdowns, we would all be better off...
No, the suicide rate would be through the roof. You just described my past few years in high school. When your only interaction with other people is to make bad jokes about each other before you get back to work, life really sucks. Nobody ever has a personal conversation or a real relationship in that kind of environment because nobody is ever serious.
Why don't google release a google desktop that subverts the chinese firewall and routes data indirectly to their US servers.
They'd be blocked. And if they're blocked, most of the population won't be able to get to them without using some sort of circumvention tool anyways.
I'm sure google have the resources and technical know-how to pull this off, and they have the market clout that they could actually get the application widely proliferated.
Of course they could develop it. But they don't have as much of an affect on the general population as you seem to be thinking.
That would fulfil the goal of developing google in China and at the same time actively work against the Chinese censorship policies.
Yes. If they could pull it off. But that is not their job, and China would be pissed off. And when China is mad, our government will tell google to back off.
If half the net users in China have an encrypting tool installed that bypasses the firewall then the authorities will struggle to do anything to them. The real political dissidents will be able to hide among the people who want to download foreign crap.
Would you really want to try that yourself? Do you remember what they do with political dissidents over there? They kill them. If everybody gets encryption tools and starts bypassing the firewalls, they'll take a few hints from the RIAA and start picking people at random.
Google does not want to start a civil war. Maybe if one got going some other way, they would help out. But right now, it is best for them to stay out of it.
we won't see the advertising on google itself as they profit from other sites using their adservice more than they profit from running ads on their site
O RLY? And they used to just have the sidebar. They added the stuff above the main results after years of celebrating the point that they didn't put ads above thier search results. I'm sure they're willing to put ads in other areas of the site if nessecary.
Yes, there is. Last time I used a friend's XP computer, I plugged in my flash drive and it asked if I wanted to run the executables on it, with a checkbox to do it automatically the next time.

How much did all of that cost, and was it worth it?
Works great under Ubuntu 6.06 as well.

Well, they do make games with four-dimensional graphics, but nobody understands them.

I suggest flipping a coin to decide. I can't tell which but it appears to be one of those.

Don't worry, the judges on this case have plenty of clues. They're just giving SCO enough rope to hang themselves with so there's no appeals.
