But we're all over the place too, fighting to turn the world into one giant multicultural theme park, safe for business, safe for you and me to travel and take our Polaroids and spread our seed. This underhanded colonialism somehow seems to piss them off more than did our original bare-knuckles approach.
I support this process in the abstract, of course. I like my Polaroids as much as I'm sure you do. But surely this approach, bombing the shit out of organizations like Hizballah and Hamas, kidnapping their leaders and democratically elected representatives just as they were beginning to get their acts together, is the wrong way to do it. It'll only backfire on us. You'd probably do well to understand that much.
Not all of us are PC users like you. Office doesn't do any such preloading on the Mac, and Word and Excel still start up immeasurably faster than OpenOffice, and on top of that is still plenty more capable and usable. Don't kid yourself--OpenOffice is a bloated piece of shit.
>and apple doesn't run any of the applications I use often.
Such as....?
Such as TurboPieChartMaster 2.0 and BeigeMaker, Professional Edition. Oh, and Windows Update. Until MAC runs these essential productivity tools instead of useless software like Keynote and Final Cut Pro, you'll find me on my PC.
How about the theme to make it look and feel like an OS X app? Beauty is more than skin deep. If themes can't give it a Mac-like Preferences window, integration with Keychain, Services functionality, etc., then themes can't make it a Mac application. I suspect the same is true for Opera's Windows version.
My guess is that you would have to take a random sample larger than the size of Britannica before coming across an "offensive word" that is vandalism in Wikipedia, simply because Britannica is so much smaller than Wikipedia...
Considering that I've already come across several instances of "offensive" vandalism in the relatively little (compared to Britannica's size) I've read of Wikipedia, I'd venture that's mistaken.

So I'm just as much at risk of seeing an offensive word instead of an accurate translation in Britannica as in Wikipedia? Somehow, I still don't think so.
...will be able to address every atom in the universe with it's own IP address...
...until we start using them as shorthand for combinations of IP addresses, say. It really doesn't take much imagination to think of ways even 2^128 addresses could someday run out.
... typically considered... essentially stationary... basically does not move... essentially identical...
Equivocations like these obscure the fact of the matter, which (as he said in his very first post) is that "[m]ore massive objects will reach their destination quicker than the less massive objects." This is true by Newton's equations regardless of differences in scale.
Then again, the original poster said nothing about hammers, or any other small objects. There's just no disputing that "more massive objects will reach their destination quicker than the less massive objects."
Are you sure? I'm looking at the license that came with 10.2 Jaguar, and section 2 (Permitted License Uses and Restrictions) reads: "This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time." Nothing else in the license looks to contradict this. This was a boxed copy bought in the US--where'd you buy yours?
The fine should be based on the cost to society of your breaking the law. Everyone would pay the same amount for parking in front of a hydrant, but the comparatively enormous fine imposed on Microsoft is appropriate to the impact of its actions relative to some no-name software outfit doing the same thing. Seems to me this would be a more appropriate way to calculate fines than a sliding scale based on your income.
And are you such a thick-skulled literalist that you think anyone who says "good-bye" to you is a Christian missionary? You do know the etymology of "good-bye," right?

Pads, gauze, sponges and the like (the things most likely to be overlooked when closing up) aren't metallic.

I think all of us in this thread probably have too much time on our hands. :-P
Combinations of devices, I mean.
But yeah, it's probably good enough for now.

Actually, he's completely right, for any usual meaning of the word "fall." Check out that discussion.

I haven't seen it, which video was that?
:-( However, I anticipate a road trip to Norway in my future...
Datarock were here in New York last year, but I didn't make it to the show.
Hey, glad you liked that Datarock song. :-) I discovered them through Annie's DJ-Kicks compilation, if you care to check that out too.

No, most criminals who get caught are dumb. You don't hear about the smart ones--they don't get caught.
Not bad! Thanks for the tip.
