I almost have to believe that someone put this theif up to the stunt. "Prove you got what it takes to be one of us." or some other "making your bones" testing of the new guy. "Do this, get caught, don't rat and we will have bigger and better things for you afterwards." Or maybe he just missed someone in jail that he really wanted to spend the holidays with. There is deifinately some unique logic at work here.
If there is an English major out there can you tell us if it is even possible for an individual to become "less informed" by through the act of being informed? Mis-informed I understand, but Less Informed?
Wow. That sucks for those involved, except the dealer. He snitched his friends because he was looking at major time. The prosecutor looked at getting all those other convictions and jumped at the chance to "make his bones". It's rough to get screwed by a criminal and the justice system at the same time. You made the right choice by NOT becoming part of the conspiracy to distribute the cocaine. As for the dealer who snitched on everyone, "what goes around comes around", "karma is a bitch" and all of that.
Where are you getting information that says that he is NOT facing the rape charges? Forgive me for quoting a media source as unreliable as TIME. I don't have a personal copy of the Interpol warrant or the Swede charges. http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,2035032,00.html
It's definately NOT the violent Rapey-Rape-Rape with a knife to the throat. That is how lay-people generally define "rape". It is infact "rape" as defined by law.
Sex without a condom against the wishes of the women. = Non-consensual sex = rape.
Well, thanks. However you are not providing an apples to apples comparison. Something is out of whack somewhere in the reporting of the story of the database itself. +The article says 200,000 names (not complaints) were leaked from the database. +Even if you add up the populations of each adjacent county including Grand County, Utah, that population only reaches 316,148 =2/3 of the population from 7 counties are informants for Mesa County? I guess that is possible, but obviously Mesa County has some issues with their manpower/skillset. How does that tiny department manage all those informants let alone that pandemic of drugs in the hepta-county area? I
I'm calling BS somewhere on this situation. I don't know where for sure, but something is rotten in Mesa County beyond this leak.
Come now. You know it's a choice to start using or dealing dope of any flavor. Maybe these snitches should have found another profession after the first few busts. Rarely, do first or second or thrid time drug offenders have the need to snitch as they are not looking at "hard time". Note I said "rarely" and not never.
They are saying this only because the profit margins on multi-player are much larger than single-player. A great single player game will sell and be successful. Epic Mickey will prove this to us over Christmas.
A living? Hell that's a lifetime setup! A quarter of a BILLION dollars for an hour max, of his time. Only in hindsight could he pull this scam. If he would have asked for ANY money up front, Rockstar would have said "No, thanks. We can find about 12 other gentlemen with the same history. We are just looking for a little color to give our game some realism."
What if kids do not continue to drive this gaming space? I think the Mobile Gaming target is adults. Adults on the commuter train/mass transit. Adults waiting on friends at the coffee shop. Waiting for airplanes. Whose kids are watching KidShowX for the Nth time. For extended trips to the office restroom. (yes, I said it)
That's actually easier than you would think. Build well insulated homes. Power then with that cheap electricity. Install Air Conditioning units in all of them. People now enjoy staying home and out of that "Africa hot" heat.
Seriously, slashdot users are supposed to be savvy. Obviously, some are NOT savvy enough to understand what is really being said in this story. Corporate is just a replacement for users, but it makes the jailbreak sound so much more robust, safe, and official. Welcome to marketing speak for your jailbreaking apps.
Newegg may be at fault if they purchased the CPUs wholesale and didn't properly inspect the shipment or validate the supplier.
That is a professional knock-off. A counterfeit this detailed with printed boxes, stickers, and material in the box to match the weight shipping weight is not free to produce. It is not profitable to go through this much trouble and expense for one or even a dozen units. There must be hundreds out there.
Unless, of course, the fine article author is pulling a fast one. I really doubt it.
Ever heard the saying "privacy of your/my own home"? Of course we all have. Anything that allows law enforcement to monitor activity inside the home should require a warrant. Soon technology will be readily available that can detect and create a video image from simple body heat or even skin temp flucuations. Law Enforcement does not have the right to monitor how hot we are, or extrapolate our possible mood, remotely. Especially if we are at home.
If we start seeing this level of scanning by law enforcement then I am going into the home spectrum shielding sales and installation business
I had no trouble finding the link on Dell's main page this morning. On the right side of www.dell.com scroll down and look under the "Essential Links" section. "Open Source PCs".
Or for the extremely PEBKAC limited here is the link.
Developing a KBM for Xbox360 is a must for any solution to be a success. I have seen a few posts already here on the subject of KBM control being one of the most significant advantages to PC gaming. Being a fan of games on both platforms and knowing many games experienced with both platforms the opinion is universal. The KBM user will always have an advantage over the controllers, some exceptions might be in racing and the less evolved "questing" games. No FPS games believes that they have more precise aming or agile movement with a console controller. Try playing Lord of the Rings:Strategy with the controller, you will cry for a mouse. Even the 360 chatting features would benefit from a KBM solution. Imagine being forced to use a virtual scrolling keyboard to type any messages to game allies and friends. I would rather style my hair with a steel bristle brush while chewing on aluminum foil and playing "This little piggie" with Kris Kristofferson and his lackey wielding the 14-pound sledge hammer.

Thanks for modding me down by the way. (insert sarcasm)
What does the "obivousness" of my personal associations have to do with the legal definition of "rape"? (insert more sarcasm)
Find me a feminist that says it's NOT a rape charge. (absolutely VOID of sarcasm)

----3) go fuck yourself.
----Not a viable option. Most people aren't that lithe.
Thanks for making me look up "lithe".
lithe (lTH)
adj., lither, lithest.
1. Readily bent; supple: lithe birch branches.
2. Marked by effortless grace: a lithe ballet dancer.
