The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward.
Maybe they have to be crazy.
How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

Goodbye Steve, and thanks for everything. Even the stuff I hated.
MS Office has been capable of saving ODFs since Office 2007 - you needed an add-in. Since Office 2010, I _believe_ saving to ODF is available by default.

Indeed. That bug's been marked as WONTFIX for 2 years now.
and this is a deliberate action by Apple (and not a bug),
a) then it's official - Apple Is Evil(tm). Especially because you can't even install a proper alternative browser on iOS.
b) It's gonna be DOJ vs Microsoft all over again. Fun times.

But would you be able to prove that you can detect geographic differences in a double-blind taste test?
I don't understand; how does theming your window manager help against this? I'm assuming the malware bit is *inside* the Google Chrome window, so even if you themed your windows with say a Pikachu theme, the *insides* of the Chrome window would still contain the rogue site, imitating Chrome's red and white-colored malware block UI.
The only way out of this is if crucial error pages are protected with some sort of "sign-in seal", like Yahoo uses for its login screens.
Don't know about NT4 (not used it since the 90s), but XP and up have SteadyState. Check out its disk protection feature, it's functionally chroot with a wipe after app exit.

There's one already, but it won't be delivered via Windows Update, users must opt in: On this page look for the Fixit Link ( http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9735564 ) The problem is that switching off a feature without fully testing repercussions -- which is what would happen if this was pushed out via Windows Update -- is not good and can cause other things to break.
With your bare hands?!?
