"The trick is that if you aren't worried about finishing the task you want to do" Oh my god, that sounds like putting the finger RIGHT on the sore spot... I always have a fear of finishing something and it's a bit of a p

Using your logic, being a victim of terrorism is absolutely a choice. My girlfriend's parents live in Arkansas. In the middle of nowhere. 20 minutes drive to the nearest town that's larger than pop. 50, give or take. No terrorist

How would they intimidate you? Send you an e-mail? Call? Show up at the door? If they would do the latter, would you have to let them in? Small disclaimer: I'm not an American (which is why I'm even more pissed off at this whole s

I honestly, absolutely, do not care one bit about possibly being targeted by the NSA if that's the result of their not being able to read my data. At the end of the day, I do NOT have anything to hide and I don't fear the NSA in t

I couldn't download it from Scribd either without paying. A 9 dollar one-day pass... don't think so. The first link you posted allows you to download the file. Thanks so much for posting it!

I still feel powerless, but of course, that's because I'm not a US citizen (though my children are, but they cannot yet speak), while my communications are also spied on by the NSA. I hope you'll be able to make a difference.

Damnit, I read "NSA" and I thought "excellent idea". Then I reread the title and noticed that extra "A" and then I thought "take a billion from the NSA". But I don't think that's going to ha

What is it with people and binary arguments? She isn't asking for LKML to be turned into a politically correct cesspool. Not being an asshole does NOT have to equal being politically correct. She's advocating clarity WITHOUT verba

Before I started using jQuery, I hadn't thought of it that way either. But after seeing that something that would normally take me days to program (in a way that it'd work in IE7, for example) only took me hours in jQuery, and fin

I have asked myself that question over the last few years and I have come to the conclusion that I really want these frameworks. In the case of jQuery, for example: you can program everything in Javascript without using jQuery. On the other

But does that mean the government by definition doesn't trust the people that put them into power in the first place?

What region are you in? I'm in the Netherlands and it says the same thing for me. It makes absolutely no sense. Not that I'd want to install this keyboard, as my phone has CyanogenMod on it, which comes with the thing in the first place. (A

I can see where you're coming from and I agree to a certain point. However, I think the file manager is such an important tool; oversimplifying it and making it hard to use is not a good idea. I loved Gnome 2.6; it is probably my favorite d

If you're Olav; apologies for misspelling your name. I went ahead and fixed those.

Playing the devil's advocate in a way: I'm not surprised that he got the ban. After Olav wanted to stop polluting the topic with this meta discussion about "tone" and "speculation", Felipe kept going on anyway, about how complaining about "
