If it'd been my choice, disabled would have meant exactly what the word suggests it means to the average person, and for services that could be run on-demand, would have used a status called on-demand. It's be enough having to put up with real world metaphors being shoehorned into computing technology (e.g. desktops, folders, and files), but it's worse when illogically applied (where "disabled" simply means "not straight away"). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
