Oh, and by "not children" I didn't mean legally, I meant physically and emotionally and all that.
In my opinion, there should be a third legal status in between "child" and "adult" for teens so shit like this doesn't explode.
1) 16- and 17-year-olds are by no means "children."
2) These laws were made to protect minors from older perverts, not from themselves.
3) This is stupid.
Was there not a story about Flash for Linux within the last 72 hours?

Anyway, I don't think it's a good idea, but it's not going to stop you from using it in Linux (in theory.)
I could be wrong.
I'm just glad that I'm not limited to only 2GB of traffic on my ISP like a lot of them on that list. I probably use 2GB of traffic a month just on YouTube alone!
Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration... Or maybe I owe YouTube a lot of money.
Darn kids, don't you know that's how you become an unperson? You totally pissed off Big Brother by climbing in his tree.
The DNA testing brings forth images of Gattaca and the whole Police State + England thing (especially after I just watched V for Vendetta again) is really creeping me out.

Great, now we can finally conveniently announce the demolition of the Earth when the time comes!
China is gonna be pissed.
This would have been really cool in 2001 or 2002.

Whoops, my bad. Totally forgot about the whole "Macs used to not be x86" thing.

It's not 100% exactly what you're looking for (I don't think, I didn't actually read the article) but it's pretty close. Ultimate DIY Gamer's Cabinet.
The seals! They do nothing!

Weird Al and MC Lars should have a rap battle about music piracy. They'd sell millions of records. Or have millions of downloads. Or soemthing.
Well, that's why the kid's screwed up! He's "[l]eft to fend for himself after his mother abandons him at Bullworth to go on her fifth honeymoon"!
I hope this game directly takes on the entire issue that it raises, and that quote seems like a good hint that it could.
