While it's fair enough to say that, I've found that "Just Works" principle applies to all major OS distributions (well, except my first few Gentoo installs). Apple's marketing compaign for "It Just Works" generally works by the principle of "Anything that Might Not Work We Disabled." That said, the Safari 4 beta seems interesting, and I've heard good things about it, but I, for one, shall not buy into this "It Just Works" ethos when I download it. Which I shall do subsequent to this post.

Well, it's "left on bad terms" as opposed to "we fired him for being terrible." You could have a sparkling record, but if one day you go a little Fight Club in the boss's office then it's all for nothing, really.

Personally I think being identifiable has much bigger security issues. Still, I think that an internet that has inter-internet border guards might as well not be the internet at all. Maybe if there were some way to switch between one or the other for whatever you're doing. Super-secure connection mode and anonymous-style connection mode. What we really need is less morons on the internet.

I just liberated City 17; it was really tough and my real mission is still ongoing. Can I also get an article?

If you're anything like me that'll be a '"Tea. Earl Grey." Cold.' by the time you stop playing around and start doing some actual work.

As you say: as long as it's the least you can do, it shall be done. Besides, it keeps Western crime departments on the payroll, so it's not like anyone is getting hurt, right guys? Right?

Indeed, it's a sad state of affairs when we cater to one third of the world's population...

Well, unless those seven languages are English, English, English, English, English, English and English, then I'd think it's safe to assume so.

All the while struggling to manage 20 frames per second or else looking like a child drew it. That is gaming uptopia! Consoles are the future!

7000 people a joke? Hoho, my friend, you'll find that over 9000 is both the amount of people protesting and a joke.

Oh man, real support for Eclipse would be brilliant.

When I first saw the news topic I thought that some smarmy prankster had started a fundraiser to cure the disease of 'being a white male.' I was going to laugh.
Now it's all serious, you jerks.

And thanks to the severity of my condition (whitus maleus) I'm going to die, soon. Way to ruin a dying man's fun.

"Groaning, too."?

Oh ho ho, that makes it sound as if we're groaning with you. I, for one, am sharpening my pitchfork.

Uh, yes, that is what logically follows. If there's an obvious 'kill-zone' and you let your children anywhere near it without some form of restraint... well, let me rephrase this slightly: if there's an obvious {zone of danger} and you let your children anywhere near this zone without some sensible form of restraint (here's a good form of restraint: don't bloody go there you ninny).

Replace the {zone of danger} with anything you like - giant chasm, electrical transformer, soldier going on a PTSD rampage, other form of serial killing, warzone, bomb test site, massive fire, colony of starved cannibals, nuclear fallout site, Barney the Dinosaur's house - and you shouldn't be surprised if your child falls down a cliff, gets electrocuted, stabbed, shot, caught in crossfire, bombed, burned to death, eaten alive, develops cancer or gets molested.
While it may not always be an 'accident' as such, it's hardly the zone's fault. It didn't go, "Bwahaha I WILL TAKE THIS CHILD" it just so happened that something was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Except in the Barney's House case; that one is genuinely malicious. I hate that goddamn dinosaur.

Well, that assumes they're idiots - personally I've found Biden a scarily intelligent man to observe. Barack himself purely seems to radiate intellect. Anyone who claims Dubya "radiates" anything other than the Miasma of Stupid needs to pay more attention 'fore they injure themselves by walking in front of a bus or something.
