This would address one of my complaints about mice, (lack of length) but I didn't see anything about adjusting the weight. I use a Logitech mouse that has since been discontinued, and I have yet to find a suitable replacement. Most of the mice I've tried are either to short or too light. My current mouse is slowly wearing out (I've already replaced one button), but I've started using the keyboard more, so that is less of an issue now than it was 3 years ago.
Maybe some airports are like that, but I know at least some of the smaller airports (Midland international, Easterwood, to name 2) are set up so that passengers of private planes and commercial planes are processed through the same terminals. (I don't think the pilots at Easterwood have to go through security)
I have an ATI card, and I've been able to switch between the closed source driver and the open source driver with every release. Although I wouldn't know why you would want to use the closed source driver... It has stablity issues, and I although I try each of them when I upgrade, it's been some time (~2 years) since the closed source driver could do anything better than the open driver. (about 2 years ago I couldn't get the open source driver to play video and desktop effects at the same time, but I solved that with a script that turned off desktop effects everytime I started mplayer.)
I understand that Craigslist doesn't want to go out of it's way to make it's website more elaborate, (In fact, I appreciate it) but I don't understand what purpose it serves to prevent others from adding their own features to the site. (In the same way greasemonkey is so great) I wonder what they are trying to do with this move.
I'm just a little confused, mostly because I've never seen this done before, but then again, I'm used to downloading software from a repository, or compiling the source myself... Are those shell scripts with large chunks of embedded binary data? I noticed they were scripts, so I opened one up and I *think* that's what I see, so I'm hoping someone else might have more information about the practice.
I don't know if it has a sig.bin file, but I do remeber installing it. I didn't need to enter a cd key or anything else. I just popped in the cd, clicked next a few times, took the disk out and started playing. No hassle whatsoever.

or not doing anything. Wrong. Many people equate not doing anything to watching TV, which happens to be a polluting activity. (and anyone who is eating is also contributing to pollution)
Please specify that you mean literally DOING NOTHING.
PS. another form of doing nothing could be a vegetable in a hospital, which is an ENORMOUS drain on resources.
Parent:
Except, in this case, the people using the term "bill of rights" are the ones trying to do the oppressing. Grandparent:
by people or organizations who want to make it seem like they're being oppressed. I believe the point was that they are the oppressors, but are covering up by saying they are the victims.
A number of people have replied before me arguing on principle, but I wish to bring a few facts to the table.
At my high school there was a boy in my computer science class who was allergic to peanuts, and claimed that he would break out in hives if we ate peanuts in the classroom during the lunch period. So we were forbidden from eating peanuts in the room. As it happened, one day someone did have a peanut butter sandwich for lunch. (she didn't know it was forbidden at the time) When it came to our attention, it was a little late to do anything about it. When the boy DID NOT REACT in any way in the following class period, we decided to try a test. We told him the next day, that we had had peanut butter sandwiches in the classroom. Leaving the classroom, he complained to the teacher about a "rash." That proved to us that the whole thing blown WAY out of proportion.
I've since asked a few doctors about this, and they agree with the conclusion we came too. Yes, peanut allergies can be serious, even deadly, but NONE of them have EVER heard of someone having a reaction to the SMELL of peanuts.
I absolutely agree. In fact, 100% of everyone who has died has ingested something containing hydroxyl acid, many within 12 hours of their death. Time to ban water! (this of course ignores the fact that 99% of everyone who didn't ingest any water over a period of 5 day died, whereas people who drink water on a regular basis seem to be just fine)
I wondered what exactly you were talking about, so I looked it up. As far as I can see, you are correct, except, that behavior can only be set on Enterprise and Ultimate editions, so it's moot for almost anyone who got Vista pre-installed, and will only work for people at work if their IT staff will enable it. Nice touch, but limiting it to the two editions where security is of greater importance kinda killed it.
And those of us who don't like his polices will donate in favor of the other guy.
This idea isn't fleshed out at all, and I'm not qualified to do so. It may be that companies should be restricted from contributing as well. It's just my opinion that they will find a way around it, (sending everyone home with a bonus if they donate to candidate X) so it's just easier to make the whole system transparent, and let people like you and me to point out when there seems to be something funny going on.
How about this... candidates no longer receive money from tax dollars for their campaigns, and there are no longer any other restrictions on the campaigns...
The tax money is not intended for campaigns, but if I want to donate a million dollars to my favorite candidate, (and it's my money) I should be able to do so.
Ok, so if your filters are picking up mail as spam, drop it, and reply with a 500 error. The original sender will receive a message saying "The message could not be delivered." A legitimate contact will ask whoever they were emailing by some other means, and will ask them to create a rule to allow their mail through. A spammer can't because all they have is an email, and won't be bothered to find out 10 million phone numbers and call them all.
You could even give the recipient a short message saying, "xyz@abc.com sent you a message that was marked as spam. Do you know this person and want to accept messages from them in the future?"
This isn't rocket science people. It's not hard to fix. The rules were set up with the potential for spammers in mind, and it has a built-in system for handling it. However, people who break the rules make it difficult for the system to work.
I'm not quite sure what you are talking about... could you back up your claim, as I'm currently running Ad Block plus on the 4th beta without any problems that I can see... (and just so it is clear, I'm not using the nightly-builder tool to make it work, it updated on it's own if I recall correctly. Simple little dialog box over a week ago is so incredibly hard to remember.)
Amateur radio is prohibited from using encryption on the public airwaves, at least not unless you also provide the key. Generally, the FCC regulates to favor those who build their own equipment and systems, (even outside of amateur, for all the trolls I know I'm going to get for that, I'd provide you with a link, but, as I'm currently getting my source from a book, that won't work) so, obviously these systems can be open-sourced for others to try building themselves. (Another point, if it were illegal to open-source the equipment/software, why has openwrt not been shut down?)
That's what the isp's are... We pay them to support the hardware that we use to get on the web. The problem is that they aren't willing to build networks anymore, but they still want more money.
It should be easy to do with userchrome.css. I currently have my default set to have all the buttons/ trinkets, and minimalist one using profile manager. However, few people that I know actually adjust their userchrome.css so a nice option dialog would be nice.

It's just like Slashdot for someone to insert their Internet analogy into the car discussion.
On Soviet Slashdot, internet analogy gets inserted into car discussion.

I'm gonna bite:
I think you are using Nvi, but I didn't think it had multi-user support. Unless you are using it with screen...
I'm just a little confused, mostly because I've never seen this done before, but then again, I'm used to downloading software from a repository, or compiling the source myself... Are those shell scripts with large chunks of embedded binary data?

Yes encryption will still work, but some websites (read Slashdot) do not have secure login facilities available.
He won't do that because, he can't.

Novell never had rights to much of the Suse codebase... most of it came from the community and was simply included in the package called "Suse."
