What I find reassuring in this case is that the judge KNEW he didn't know what these terms meant. He didn't think he was infallible and knew everything, and he didn't try and bullshit his way through the proceedings and then delivery a shitty verdict based on ignorance. Credit to the judge for admitting his ignorance in court.
This is Bill "Pay me and I'll say whatever you want" Hilf we're talking about here. The guy would say black is white and up was down if there was a buck in it.
the product needs to accommodate the customer. It's part of selling a product. It has to be customer-oriented.
Hold on, I don't think anyone at Blizzard can hear you -- they're all on a restroom break, sitting on solid gold toilets, wiping their asses with hundred-dollar bills. But I'm sure they can't wait to hear your advice on how to successfully sell video games. Boy, if only they knew how to do that.
Are we talking about the same Aussie Rules? Cross-country ballet? Where the aggression level is so high, the men sometimes -- gasp -- SHOVE each other?
Yes! Original Disney characters like Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White must be protected! Taking other creators' characters and making millions out of them without paying a cent to those creators in return is a crime!
I can speak for me, and I run OS X and Windows simultaneously on both my main computers. It's painless. If I want to check my mail with Outlook, I click the Outlook icon on my OS X Dock, and Outlook opens up in a window on my OS X desktop.
I recently DOWNGRADED my main Windows installation from Windows XP to Windows 2000 Server. Win2k Server does everything I want with a much smaller footprint.
But in New Salem (formerly known as Great Britain) anything that could possibly be construed as possibly putting possible children at possible risk by possible pedophiles is treated as a priori evidence of guilt of child abuse.
An article in the Sydney Morning Herald today contained this gem:
Britain's internet watchdog yesterday reported that the number of images of child abuse posted and sold online had quadrupled over three years. It also said images had become more graphic (...) The report by the Internet Watch Foundation said nearly 60 per cent of all commercial websites sold images of child rape.
Sixty percent of all commercial websites. Boy, that claim doesn't sound hysterical at all.
It might just been that there have been fewer population bottlenecks in the chimp population. There's less genetic variety among native Americans than among native Africans, for example.
Not at all. I was actually thinking of comments made by linguist and social commentator Snoop Dogg when he observed:
"It's a completely different scenario. (Rappers) are not talking about no collegiate basketball girls who have made it to the next level in education and sports. We're talking about hos that's in the hood that ain't doing shit, that's trying to get a nigga for his money. These are two separate things."

Playpen balls are an xkcd in-joke.

The article could be rephrased as "younger poorer people tend not to own homes at which landlines are installed".
Like, duh.

I can't believe this is "news".

Step away from the crack pipe. Zahn is to Star Wars as K Anderson and B Herbert are to Dune. You know... frat boy? Closet? Corpse?
nga plz.

Yeah, because Raph Koster was a complete noob who didn't know anything about MMORPG gameplay.

NO. Jesus H. Christ, that's the stupidest thing I've read so far on this page, and there's some STUPID shit here.
I run Windows on my Macs using Parallels:

The seamless integration I describe is referred to by Parallels as "coherence mode".
This is Slashdot. Your reference isn't obscure here.

WTF? The Sims is a time sink. It was designed for Tamagotchi micromanagers, not for people with jobs and families and minimal game time.
I recently DOWNGRADED my main Windows installation from Windows XP to Windows 2000 Server. Win2k Server does everything I want with a much smaller footprint.
This is all in a Parallels VM on my Mac, btw.
Hell, for all we know the guy was the technical writer who authored the document and he wanted to copy some footnotes.
if there's no problem, then there's nothing to report. It doesn't affect anybody.
You mean, "if there's no problem, then there's nothing that people need to be told to BUY before they DIE HORRIBLY".
Ooga-booga! Ooga-booga!
I'm changing all my passwords to "YOU! OBEY THE FIST!"

Insanity is suffered by humans worldwide. Depressed gunmen committing mass-murder-suicide at schools seems to be a uniquely American trait.
