You are right, there is an exception to every rule - in this case it's called Zardoz :-)

Both of them seem to make any movie they are in watchable.

Just think of "Highlander" without Connery or Rickman's Sheriff of Nottingham.

If they made a movie of the Seattle phone book and Rickman or Connery are in it i'd go watch it.

Could you please define terrorism for me, and vandalism too if you don't mind.

Surely you are aware that there have been humans in the Middle East and Indonesia for quite some time and you are eating what they are eating. ... or do you go out into the jungle and eat the first plant you happen to see?
Surely you won't be quite as fine then :-)

You don't remember comcast forging reset packets?
I still do not understand why they were never charged with anything criminal. At the very least some sort of fraud or wire tampering.

I think we should make Internet access available to the poor, in this day and age lifting oneself out of poverty would pretty much require having Internet access.

Sure. Opera or Chrome could get good enough that those browsers are what we the geeks rip out IE in favor of.

Competition is good.

Having Firefox "beat up on a drunk" all the time isn't the best in the long run.

Worthy competitors are a good thing. They won't necessarily "kill" Firefox.

"silly and superfluous" sells to the average customer. And if you're concerned about bloat, maybe try Mozilla's seaMonkey? It looks like the old 90s-era Netscape, but with the same engine as Firefox.

Well, yes. When I use the phone app, I really do care about making and receiving a phone call. But I don't find myself firing up the phone app near as much as I'm checking my email, calendar, web, navigation / maps, etc. Heck - I spend more hours reading books on my Droid than I do talking to people. I could do all the same things with a netbook. But I couldn't put that in my pocket.

With so much luck, you should go to Vegas:)

Cause I have an Athlon64, which works fine (well as fine windows can) with XP, but Windows 7 does not load at all. And in another Athlon64, Windows7 does not play the sound (XP does), nor does it find the NIC of the motherboard. And you know, Autocad2005-2007 won't work on Windows7 (they work on XP).

On the other hand Linux (Open SuSE) worked from day 1, in 64bits, and it installed in half an hour, full with all the apps.

Huh?

The Android apps specify which version of the API they require, and the Market app does not display apps that require an Android version higher than the one on your phone.

Not everyone in a wheelchair is fat and requires two chairs. If a person needed to fly and had to lie down then they would probably charge extra for that (if they could facilitate that) just as if you consider being obese a disability, then they get charged for the inconvenience to others. Just because you handicap doesn't mean you get a free ride through life.

I didn't say they should sell the ticket for 1/5th the cost. I'd be happy with a 30% discount to account for 130 pounds less weight than an average adult.

Vacations get EXPENSIVE when one's kids are over 2 years old.

exactly for this reason, but most of them are thinkgeek related ;)

Your are right. Kind of. The bug is listed for kde4 (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172615) except they claim it's not really a bug because there is no standard that say that a utility window should be on top.

I really don't understand how there can be a X window manager standard which say that a window can be an "utility window", without describing what kind of behaviour such a window should have.
