    Apple VS. US Goverment? Who should win?

    Both sides have claimed they want congress to produce new law on this. A magistrate is our lowest ranking federal judge, If congress is unable to act because it might make Obama look good in some way... then it will most diffidently make it's way to the Supremes (Thank God Scliia resides...

    Apple VS. US Goverment? Who should win?

    Apple fervently denies it has that capability! It claims it would have to create it and once created, well we would know it was there wouldn't we? So if we KNOW it is there it's well worth the criminal classes time to find it.... So says apple the enslaver of children. Word now is that Apple is...

    Federal Trade Commission slams Butterfly Labs for $39M [tl;dr: they'll never pay up]

    IMHO: In a democracy where EVERYTHING depends upon the people understanding the law; There is no excuse for writing laws the average 6th grader can't understand.

    Apple VS. US Goverment? Who should win?

    Probably one of the biggest questions of our time. Personally At this point I think the US G.is totally full of shit. But then I always do! So help me find the balance point here, How much should we tear down so "Terrorists" don't tear it down? I fear the US government WAY WAY more that I fear...

    Mint website hacked, check your .iso downloads

    I'd love to hear from Aedan as to weather the big "Terror" bug a boo has changed the security habits of the corporate world? I see the next step in retail security as simply offering up a bit our data with every purchase":O}

    Federal Trade Commission slams Butterfly Labs for $39M [tl;dr: they'll never pay up]

    This is why we are so reluctant to take a chance on something new. It always seems to come with criminals per-installed.

    How to install Nvidia 341.92 driver in ubuntu?

    I'd go one step further! Mint is for people who don't want or can't learn Linux but still want a desktop that does pretty much whatever they want it to. Mint in my mind isn't really Linux...it's desktop Linux. It's r those who can do, taking thought of those of us who can not and making a...

    Need advice Distro needed, no gaming needed.

    All things considered...$150 doesn't seem out of line at all. I'll check out page six but your real help with parts will have to come from someone more familiar with the current market place.

    Do you need a 3D fighting game for Japanese learning on Linux?

    As language both separates and unites us...One might use that in game by making some minor form of attainment in language study the prerequisite for forming teams... just a thought. ":O}

    Good load George! If you've been plodding along in Win 7... Mint 17.3 is really going to wind you up and blow you away! I can't begin to tell you what you have is store for you...I'm actually envious! ":O} Now...let's stop clowning around in the rain and let's get your freedom ship launched...

    Need advice Distro needed, no gaming needed.

    This is exactly why you need to post your parts list! The right ram, the right power the video card and the right drives can save you endless headaches. Super-fast ram can be a waste of money if everything else isn't up to the task as well. This applies to any purpose built machine. Why buy...

    Need advice Distro needed, no gaming needed.

    Hi. Like i said I'm a terrible shopper I usually go to New egg or Amazon to price out parts. Does your builder offer itemize parts and pricing or it is a package deal where you only have a few selections you can make( Usually what the builder can get a good deal on, good for you good for him.)...

    Cliff! I so ashamed! I remember all Cliff did for me, it was Cliff that turned me on the Mint 11! I just could not remember ccperf's name. Unfortunately forgetting names seems to be happening a lot more than it use to. Cliff! If your around at all we would love to hear from you! My wife still...

    Sounds about right Gizmo. I remember putting two and two together and realizing that Linux plus PS3 equals freedom from MS. Yeah I did really miss computer gaming...But that's why we started GOL!":O}
