I would think the fact that Bill Gates could monetarily fund his entire campaign, sans ANY lobbyist or fundraising initiative is a pretty good mark that he could stay balanced when it comes to any issue. He's becoming detached from Microsoft, soon he'll be nothing but a name in the old ledger books and a few pictures I imagine, and he won't need to take a dime in other people's money to put ads for his campaign out.
Personally, I think he's in an incredibly good position to run from president simply for the fact that he can be the only person to run on a platform of simultaneously being the most monetarily charitable human being in the world and not being a puppet for the lobbyists.
I know this is going to shock you... but the insurance companies are aware of that. They even plan for it. They charge people based on models of how often an area gets flooded.
People who live in a 1 year flood plain will pay far, far more for flood insurance than people who live in a 100 year flood plain. That's A Good Thing(tm). Please don't complain about the system working, or as so many on Slashdot like to put it, "There's nothing to see here, move along."
And to think, I almost bought into their pennies-per-cpu licensing fee! It's a good thing any research department that can afford a quantum computer can afford the multi-million dollar Windows Quantum (Student and Teacher Edition, of course.)
Apparently people need to be pointed out that any hook that an antivirus program can use to gain access to the kernel can be used and abused by an actual virus.
Incorrect example, whether paid for or not, the audiovisual experience should be nearly identical for both people. But your example when applied to Microsoft would be, "If you go to a conference or seminar that requires a fee, and I sneak in, and they used Microsoft Powerpoint to do the slides, did both of us see a genuine Powerpoint slideshow?" The answer would of course be yes, but only because there's a very good chance the slideshow was made with a legal copy of Microsoft Powerpoint. Your example could also be equivocated to, "If you pay to watch somebody use Microsoft Windows, and I use my binoculars to watch from across the street, through that person's windows, then did both of us watch him use genuine Microsoft Windows?" Again, the answer depends on whether or not that person had a genuine copy.
Now, here's what you should have your analogy be: "If you go to a movie theater and pay to watch a movie, but you also record it (illegally) with your well-concealed camcorder, and then you bring that back and I watch the recorded copy, did we both watch the genuine movie?" The answer is of course no. You watched the illegal copy, whereas he payed to view the legal copy (and then illegally copied it.) Likewise, if the movie theater illegally copied their print of the film, and then played that, that would be a non-genuine copy. And though I can't imagine any movie theater in the world that has the equipment to perform a frame-by-frame copy, not to mention the copy would probably lack a great deal of quality.
No, we can't survive those conditions. However, we use our intelligence to MAKE those places have OUR environment. We build our space suits and our space stations, we build our deep submersibles, etc.
We have yet to make it so that a human being can be exposed to those conditions and still function. That's an entirely different level of interaction, and please keep it distinguished. We cannot survive in space exposed, however, we can bring our environment to it.
But the blood gets everywhere then and it's terribly hard to clean out of my whites, the bleach never really gets all of it...
Maybe we could have a not-so-bloody revolution? Just this once? You know, we can try it out, see if we like it. I mean, if we don't like it, we could always go for number two, right?
Maybe it's because I am an Aspie, but... isn't the second clause valid with either interpretation.
"[Fruit] [flies] like a banana," yes, fruit also flies like an apple, or an orange, depending on which sort of fruit happens to be flying about.
"[Fruit flies] like a banana," and I imagine they would, being fruit flies.
Oh no, it'll die right after the warranty ends.
But for $300 I'm sure they'll be willing to let you send it in and get it repaired or another refurbished model identical to it back. And for only $150 more they might give you an HDMI port.
I checked, and that only works if I don't include the md5sum of your post in your post. This is clearly an error on your part. Please run your post through a program until it actually has an md5post within it that represents it.
Just don't name it after any songs "protected" by the RIAA, or else the first thing you'll find in your inbox after your summer vacation will be a million dollar copyright infringement lawsuit.

That's only for the McGuyver Edition models, now. The first ones were powered by blood and sweat, and that's how we liked it.
I've noticed both Notepad and Wordpad are not vulnerable.
I'll just stick with these inferior applications while boasting a smug sense of superiority.
Ha-HA!
Listening to those earbuds at such a high volume may have made his neurons a little slow on reuptake, too.

Anyone who pays for Linux (not support, for Linux) deserves to be fired.
At this point, I think "touchy" would make a good reply.

I concur, I'm so glad Apple did the same thing with Mac OSX.
Last man alive. Knocking not heartbeat.

The internet is serious business.
Mod this man up.
I have mod points, but upon looking at your post, I was confused.
"Redundant" is usually considered negative, so I skipped that.
"Underrated" doesn't do it justice.

No, arrogant is when you call people arrogant for being casual, not caring about maintaining a (false) image, &c. See: Definition of irony.
