Daisy chaining is very, very common in the US as well, at least in houses that are more than 5 years old. However, they're usually daisy-chained from jack to jack, not from device to device, so nothing will stop your wife from picking up the phone and getting a screech if you're dialed in to the internet unless the phone is plugged in to the jack at the back of modem.
Don't think of the first one as copy/paste. Think of it as a text drag and drop... a bonus given to you by linux, rather than a replacement for the copy/paste you're used to. If what you want to do is replace a URL, you can just do it the same way you would in windows:
1. Select the link in some program, C-c to copy 2. Alt-Tab to Firefox 3. Select the link currently in the location bar (in order to replace it) 4. C-v to paste
The private/protected thing is not a flaw in PHP! It is possibly a flaw in the english language that the word has different meanings in different contexts. Private and protected are about data hiding in sense of encapsulation, which helps maintain proper separation of concerns between datatypes. It has nothing to do with security.
In C++, you can get around access modifiers using pointers or references. In Java and C# I believe that the knowledgeable coder can get around them by reflection. Most dynamic OO languages don't even bother with them.
If you are executing untrusted code (such as eval'ing a user-supplied string containing, for example, print_r), all bets are off for security. Ioncube isn't even intended as a hacker-safe tool. It's meant to keep your customers coming back to you for changes, or to make sure that no one does cowboy coding on deployed servers.
I agree 110%, but mainly because both languages provide an interactive environment lacking in Pascal (my first taught language) and C. TI-Basic (my first language) had one, and it enabled me to teach myself programming as a runt.
Maybe the infinite health cheats, but the $250,000 cheat in GTA:SA saved me from a lot of taxi driving to buy houses in each neighborhood, which in turn saves from doing a ton of driving whenever you need a savepoint or to hide from the cops.

This article, I assume
I'm not very familiar with the other 2, but I believe Netreo is in the same space... it's what UC Irvine uses, I think.
Couldn't agree more about the buttons... so I'm getting one of these for my 3G: Nyko Itop Button Relocator
I've used it under VMware... it's kind of a hog, though.
Yes, there are no licensing restrictions for applications built using the Express Editions.
