Why is that moderated "troll"? Sure, the words were coarse, but the point is insightful: Forget silly games and do something worthwhile with the hand ability that remains.

That's my (and AC's) point. Mail is a mature technology and should be trivial. Hell, SMTP stands for _Simple_ Mail Transfer Protocol.
Thunderbird is huge and bloated and memory-sucking and such, but all you need to do to use it is to install the package (only one package) and fill in the blanks in the configuration dialog (or the wizard, if the configuration dialog is too much trouble).
Parent is AC and got scored 0, but is 100% correct and deserves insightful/interesting/informative. I was about to post exactly the same thing.
Now, my question: Is there a script/package/wrapper/forked subproject/etc to make it simple and easy to install mutt?
I used to use it, and really liked it. I used it for a couple years straight, then went to a new Linux distribution. By that time, I couldn't remember how to set it up, and couldn't be bothered to fsck with learning it again.
We're talking about a local county election with a sum total of 36 votes cast. Clearly there was an error of some sort. Which brings up two fundamental questions all election officials must ask:
1) Did this error change the outcome of a race? That is the first consideration, because if it didn't then the severity of the error is vastly reduced.
2) If this error changed the outcome of a race, was it intentional? That is, was the outcome of democracy subverted, and done so with fraudulent intent?
3) Is this the only instance of an error?
4) Is this the only office for which there was an error?
5) Is this the only machine in which there was an error? (If not, how widespread is it?)
Besides, with a dead tie between the other two candidates, there's even an important question for that particular office:
6) Was the error a failure to count his vote, or was his vote counted for the wrong person?
Being able to go to sleep and not worry about the software
is far different from
Supports all mission critical software that we use to run our business.
When one loses sleep worrying about their software, usually they're worried about security or stability, not whether or not they were able to get it running -- they already know if they got it running or not.
In both Firefox and Opera, you can add nearly any search as a quick search by right-clicking in the text box.
As for me, I have a local home.html in which I put every search I use, with the html stripped of everything I don't need, and the options I use pre-selected.
This whole thread deserves to be moderated offtopic.
But a gun only has one purpose: To hurt living things. All a gun can ever do is hurt people, be it for good or evil. Arguably shooting someone is never a good thing even if it is in self defense. Comparing guns to computers is a highly flawed analogy.
They're also great for hunting, which can be for sport, pest control, or food; and there are firearm non-hunting sports too.
Always remember, if guns make people safe then why isn't the United States the safest place on earth?
Because everbody in the US doesn't have a gun. If everybody carried a gun, knew how to control themselves, and knew how to use it well, you can bet that there would much less crime. Since those three conditions are impossible, it's not possible to achieve that level of safety -- but in the US, states with the least restrictive gun laws have the lowest crime rates.

BTW, without even reading TFA, it's obvious to me that China isn't giving out receivers, just that they're going to allow manufacture and sale of receivers for consumer use.
Huh, I don't get it? What's the joke GPS is a poor method of navigation or Chinese people are inherently funny?
Seriously what's with the torrent of offhand racism on Slashdot recently.
That's the second reply I've seen that assumes the joke was racist. I didn't read it that way at all. I read it as a joke about their population count and density, and the unnecessary addition of complication/technology.
The same joke would work if the article headline was "NYC giving free GPS unit to all residents", except s/"a billion"/"8 million"/...
It would seriously be...difficult to find a tech job at 17 with no education
Well, that depends on how you define "tech job". At 17, you can find a job at a small computer repair shop, where you'll occasionally meet people who are in the industry (although most of the people you meet want to upgrade their Packard Bell 386 to a "Pentemum").
Agreed on Sysinternals Autoruns. Everything from them is good. I don't remember if it provides protection, or just allows you to disable existing autorun stuff.
See http://www.mlin.net/StartupMonitor.shtml for a good protector. By the same guy, there's also a control panel applet with similar functionality to SI's Autoruns. It's surprisingly small and powerful.
If I read TFA correctly, you pay for your music from Yahoo or Rhapsody, and Cingular doesn't charge you for your download. The $15/month, then, is a flat rate for the transmission service, not for the content.

Saying that something runs NetBSD is approximately equivalent to saying that something exists.
Doesn't this run NetBSD too?
That's the first thing you thought of when you saw the title? You're a sick, sick person.
Oh wait, I did to. I'm a sick, sick person...

BIOYA. I'm not bothered by most typos, but I'm tired of seeing that particular one.
Good job sifting the chocolate from the dog shit. You might be right.
So will it be free to download as many songs as you like? If so, it may become worthwhile to buy the phone and service just to use as an audio player.
