And that is a security risk as well. Trusting an unknown source anyway.

Unfortunately, on the rare occasion that the computer breaks and I'd want to log in on ebay from another computer I am kind of screwed since there is no way I can remember a random hashed password.

How about combining a hovercraft with a trolleybus? It stays above ground so no need for good roads, but it is attached to a rigid line going above the street, so turning is made easier, and the problem with stopping is solved.

Of course, this works only on city commutes, but it seems an interesting idea.

Nowhere. But in 90% of cases, there will be little to no space between lines.

Where did this obsession with Widescreen come from anyways?

Producing TVs and computer screens using the same materials is easier than having one line do 16:9 format and the other 16:10

Nope. Unless the text is very neatly organised, more than 5 lines of text with little spacing between them get confusing very fast. Reading a 'block of text' that occupies the entire screen horizontally is quite hard for me since I often need to recheck on which line of the text I am.

Or a simple recorded message on a phone call.

I have experienced the opposite. My 3-4 year old NoName Chinese "iPond MP4" player which I bought from a friend for $5 had no software included, yet WinXP easily recognised it as an USB drive and I could put music in it.

Unfortunately, after upgrading to Vista I found out that there is no way possible to use it any more. For Vista it was unrecognised hardware and that's it. No drivers to be found as I have no idea what is it called because it is a cheap clone of a cheap clone of an iPod. I even tried using VMware and VirtualBox, but because Vista does not recognise the hardware, it is not shown in the virtual OS of WinXP.

Since they were invented by Apple, they just work!

No no. Spam is not what I meant. Twitter is opt-in. You don't like it you don't use it. E-Mails get spammed without asking for it. I'm talking about the equivalent of hosting a blog with nothing but "ABABABABA" for 500 pages. That's not trash since you're hosting it yourself. Or a company does who is agreeing to what you do.

You can't litter on the Internet because every personal computer connected to it can act as a server and thus publish its whole hard drive, adding "trash" as you would say, but that trash is stored on the computer to whom the trash belongs, thus the Internet was expanded by the amount of trash and no capacity which could be used for something else was taken.

And I would gladly watch it all crash and burn.

In Poland, I get daily text messages saying that I won a million or a car, or whatever. For me, this is spam and advertisements that I do not want. I pay for my mobile phone and for every text message I send, call I make and whatnot, but the carrier still insists on sending me spam messages which annoy me. On a bad day it can get to five texts of spam and I can't simply ignore my phone thinking "nah, this is probably just spam" without checking it if it is important.

With a mouse you will be able to aim way better than any other console player. This will give the mouse players an unfair advantage and as such, unless there is a match-making system for "pad-only" games, you won't be allowed to use a mouse.

And we all know such a law will work. As far as I know, selling porn, alcohol and cigarettes to minors is also illegal. Does that prevent kids form watching porn, drinking and smoking?
Especially since kids can download porn and games for free, it is not going to change much in how many children play violent games.

It would be fun if the had a static IP and Google banned him. That would hurt.
