This thread is going to be full of people saying "When you win in court..."
Assuming no special legal knowledge, the average person with no lawyer will lose to the RIAA in court. And as for hiring a lawyer,
It'd be real hard to mount a defense for $30,000, much less $3,000. Even if you do, they could still win.
WordPerfect was the word processor of choice for lawyers. The "Reveal Codes" function was very well-liked for formatting legal documents. In some shops it is still the preferred word processor.
I live in a city and haven't owned a car for two years. I walk and bike, and use public transportation, and wish others would do more of the same. With that out of the way, I have to defend the guy from New Orleans. I'm assuming he doesn't have a shower facility at work (I've never worked anywhere that did). If not, he's right - it's just too damn hot to bike several miles in New Orleans. You wouldn't just be a little sweaty, you'd be downright disgusting and horribly uncomfortable. Evaporation takes a big hit in 90+ percent humidity - your sweat doesn't dry off like it does in 100-degree heat in the Arizona desert, where there is virtually no humidity. In that climate, you have a valid point. But for most of the year, New Orleans has weather that approximates Hell on Earth (just my opinion).
I won't get into people racing from red light to red light . . . but I will say that I enjoy biking past them.
Edit the registry and nuke all the autostart crap: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Delete entries at will (you might want to back it up first).
Hmm, I didn't think the US was training Al-Queda to fly 737's full of civilians. Or are you talking about the box cutters? Did we provide them with box cutters?
What's the oldest piece of code you can get running? Either on emulation or on original hardware. Be creative, winner gets... well, kudos. But that's gotta count for something on Slashdot right?:^P This would have been a more interesting question, and one that we could actually see results for instead of speculating wildly. But I guess wild speculation has its merits as well.
Edwards said the Seagate hard drive -- which was about eight years old in 2003 . .. Yeah, I misread the summary as "400Gb" drive, and was baffled as to how even NASA got their hands on one of those in 1995.
Spot-on. I tried using OpenOffice on Linux and Windows for a year. It's too bloated and slow. Period.
Most users can live without all the whiz-bang features of MS Office; I could have for the year I tried using OO - but I could not stand the sloooooow load times and hanging when opening big files. As soon as I got Office 2003 running under Wine, I switched to that.
I desperately want to use something besides MS Office because I use Linux much more than Windows. If OOo is as fast as MS office I'll switch the second v3 hits the servers.
I would hate for there to be any incentive to change the current urban-sprawl mentality of a nation built on cheap energy. We need to continue to make things needlessly far apart, segregating housing and businesses in such a way that even when they are only a mile apart a car is required to travel between them. Just imagine all the ugly stores right next to houses and sidewalks all over the place that would have to spring up if we couldn't afford to drive our SUV's 3/4 of a mile for a gallon of milk.
"Doing science," eh? Just like that Hubble story not too long ago. If these rovers find a comet that contains Atmospherium, it could mean real advances in the field of science.

error "malformed text data" is from JSON, if you get this after the fixes to the $filename line just comment out use strict.

I read "In Defense of Food" recently; it was very interesting. Since reading that, I see High Fructose Corn Syrup EVERYWHERE.
Also, we're not eating just corn - there is an awful lot of soy in there too. But yeah, we eat way too much corn.

tl;dr
I guess the attacks of September 11th don't count, because EVERYONE knows the government did that one.
Not everyone can be as insightful as you are. On behalf of humanity, I apologize.
Does anyone else get the urge to choke users of this term? It's somehow even worse than "blogosphere."
Dammit! Strangle!!!
But I guess wild speculation has its merits as well.
Oh no?? Please don't use anecdotal evidence?
Please see my sig!
President Bush is hiding in your closet.
Bravo; I thoroughly enjoyed this, especially the last bit about "deciding whether or not to go to the bathroom to make coffee."

Clever and apt.

Can't even see the game or the Sugar Ray fight.
Troll?! With all the "Redhat does not equal Linux!!" carrying on in days of yore...
