It's a bit like my boycott of stores that I know openly supported Prop 8 only on a governmental scale. Nokia et al. made deals that the US government thought were counter to it's own interests and goals and so it is finding itself in the position of the US government boycotting them.
What browser are you using? Looks great in Konqueror. In fact it's my favorite layout to date (also the least buggy other than the crappy "open a new page to see nested comments" style).
Historical fiction is still fiction. If I write a book about superman saving the world from a comet, I don't get to later call it non-fiction just because I included superman dealing with current events.
This reminds me quite a bit of A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer. Teaching through adventure stories sounds like a good idea for just about any subject, as long as you can make it fun and interesting.
It's still sexual assault. The sex of the perpetrator doesn't matter. Whether the person doing the search is getting their jollies from it doesn't matter. There is no valid reason for anyone not a cop following proper procedure to have strip searched anyone, especially a child.
I say, when the attacker lacks balls to crush, go for the ovaries. The attackers deserve whatever violence the girl could have mustered for violating her.
The rendering engine for IE is used other places in Windows (like the help system IIRC). The same goes for others like WMP. The libraries are needed for other applications and the executable is so small in comparison that removing it rather than just disabling it makes some sense.
I want anti-scratch on the foil side. I have lost use and the data of many more CDs because the foil got a scratch (or it peeled, or tore or..) than I have because the read surface was scratched. I can buff out a scratch on plastic to save the data, I can't do that with the foil.
And why couldn't you bundle it with the.msi? From what I remember of using Windows, that's how GTK+ is shipped for Pidgin and GIMP, why not do the same with Qt?
Those damn Netflix ads are what made me finally turn on ad-blocking. Sorry rest of the web, but these ads are the bad apple that spoiled it for everyone.
"Do what now?" was Meatwad's response to the rest of the team when, after having his brain removed and himself rolled in glass, they told him to pop the balloon. YOU watch the show:p
The 'in-' on inflammable literally means 'in'. 'Inflammable' should be broken down like this: (in-flame)-able), making it mean "able to be in flame" not "highly flammable".
Freedom of the press does not refer to journalism at all. It refers to the right to print and disseminate written works. It's for pamphlets and comic books just as much as it is for a newspaper. Referring to journalism as "The Press" is just metonymy (using their tools to describe their profession) and is not in fact what a press actually is. Journalism is protected by both free speech (the freedom to say something) and free press (the freedom to print and disseminate).
The idea that you must somehow be a "legitimate" journalist to benefit from freedom of the press is patently absurd and further more is dangerous in that you are willingly giving up not only your own freedoms but others' as well in your attempt to redefine the majority of the population as no longer having rights they should.
Why not try Psi http://psi-im.org/? It's a great Jabber client with a simple interface that doesn't get in the way but still provides all of the features you would expect. It's the best IM client I know of on Windows (at least until Kopete finishes getting ported).
I don't know your particular situation but in my state, California, our constitution mandates that voting be secret. It would be against the law here for you to receive a receipt from the machine (or to have any type of vote checking after the actual vote is cast).
I use DeVeDe in Linux and it works great. You will still need to write the DVD image to disk but it will transcode the video, setup the menu/titles/etc., and make a DVD image out of it. Here is the Windows version: http://www.majorsilence.com/devede/
Well if we want to keep using a Tape ARchiver, maybe we should change the damn thing's interface to work on files by default? Why keep a crappy, unintuitive bit of UI if it doesn't work out of naught but inertia?
We keep it like that because that's how every other tool that uses tar expects it to work. And for what the tool is for, the --file option is not just there for inertia. It would be silly and unintuitive to have a tape archiver that required a special option to be able to use it for archiving to tape.
If it really bothers you that the most commonly used archiver doesn't do files by default, it's not like you can't fix it. A simple alias (lets call it far for File ARchive) like 'alias far='tar --file' will create a tar interface which allows you to extract a file with a simple 'far --extract some_file.tar'

And if they die you can always build more killbots.

These are not zombies. They are, in fact, very very small mind flayers.

This is just one step closer to ractors and mouse armies.
Psi is a good, multi-platform Jabber only IM client.

I thought the same thing, it reminded me of the personalized newspapers the Vickies got.

To be fair, Amarok has always looked a bit out of place even on a Linux KDE setup.
Do what now?

The California constitution says that voting must be secret. It would be illegal to implement a system where you could see who voted for what.
