What do you do when after you re-format your computer, it WILL NOT re-install windows? (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Birthday in Solitary Confinement
 
(...) Well, I'm not 100% sure what opinion you're asking for from me. My basic stance hasn't changed of course, and everyone who reads here much already knows it, I don't hold much with regulation of behaviours or of intent, only of ensuring (...)

  Re: Flaming
 
AMEN. When structured and civilized debate occurs it is a beautiful thing. And its through these debates that we are able to advance the civility and tolerance of other points of view within our community. One of the first things seen on the lugnet (...)

  Re: Birthday in Solitary Confinement
 
(...) Or an Old part of New Labour? :) I picked up my Evening Standard today, with much blushing about Widdecombe's backtracking and various Tory MPs coming out about having smoked marijuana in their younger years. I'd be surprised if Labour says (...) (24 years ago, 9-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Flaming
 
Nicely said. By the way, this type of tension is fairly common for webbased discussion groups like bulletin boards and listservs. I recently was bombarded with about 200 emails from a listserv for professionals that mainly focused on somebody not (...)

  Birthday in Solitary Confinement
 
From the LP newsletter I get emailed to me, excerpted to remove the requests for donations to run ads and letters to Todd to show solidarity: <begin cite> <snip> Today, October 7 is Todd McCormick's birthday. He will spend his 30th birthday in a (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Flaming
 
(...) Very well said. I completely agree. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but they don't have to reveal them to the whole of the Lugnet community. Mike (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) No it's not. It's copyright violation. (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Flaming
 
Hi everyone, It has been a week or so since someone has left as a result of being burned by individuals here on LUGNET. I am not about to point fingers but I just wanna say we are a community of individuals who are coming together by way of common (...)

  Re: We have too many cats in our house already
 
Took a few tries but here is what I got back (heavily excerpted, the person responding wasn't really having a good day and I wasn't helping matters much for him with my queries) (...) I have no intention of destroying any of my mice (!!) but I am (...) (24 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Cosmic Toys now open on BrickBay
 
(...) Naw, that wasn't "people"... just me. :^) (...) Whoo, lookit all them space references. (...) Yay! ~M (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Cosmic Toys now open on BrickBay
 
(...) Geez... I go away for one day to seek and buy up Legos and people get nitpickey about my store name :) For the record... Once upon a time (in a galaxy far far away, yada yada yada), someone I worked for took to calling me 'cosmic ray'. The (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Cosmic Toys now open on BrickBay
 
(...) Like your post wasn't condescending... (...) Honestly, when was the last time you heard anyone describe something as "Cosmic" when they didn't mean "of/coming from space?" ~Mark (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Cosmic Toys now open on BrickBay
 
(...) Wow. I won't need anyone to be condescending to me for the rest of the month. My post had 2 smileys, do they cancel eachother out? Just wanted to say that 'cosmic' may not mean 'space'. You've helped me to see that I could have done a better (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) Aya, found it... Here's what I was thinking of: (URL) and I don't know how to interpret this code, and I don't know if it even applies in any kind of LEGO way, but there ya have it. --Todd [followups to .publish] (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) I don't think that TLC legal has stated that they know about his site, but I think people have mentioned being pointed to the site as a source for old instructions no longer available from Consumer Affairs. I'd also find it hard to believe (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) They've been well aware of it for at least 26 months. I don't think they would suddenly ask that it be shut down, unless they began offering something equivalent themselves. --Todd [followups to .publish] (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) Wouldn't surprise me. Of course, unless there is regulation which specifically states that not enforcing one's copyright would not at all affect the ability to recover damages, the longer one leaves a violator alone, the less likely you will (...)

  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) Has TLC stated that they know about Kevin's site? It's very possible that this was discussed previously and I simply missed it. If they haven't made such a statement, though, how would Kevin go about demonstrating that TLC *did* know about his (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Look what I found in the comics section!
 
(...) IANAL, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that there was some kind of time span of 3 years that figured in somewhere, something to the effect that if someone _knew_ you were violating their copyright for three years and didn't do (...)
