Maybe it's because the $1-$2 range is across ALL users, not just those that pay. Of ALL the users, only about 5000 pay anything, and what they pay is about $230,000. The only thing "bad math" about it is that the 5000 users probably represent slightly less than 5% of the userbase, not the 10% he mentioned. But that's hardly a big enough deal to get worked up over. Perhaps you just misread the summary and instead of re-reading it, posted about how bad the math was.
Microsoft: if you want to beat Google, find a way to develop a completely open search ranking system.
That would be the craziest day ever. I wonder if it would come on the heels of Rush Limbaugh touting the virtues of President Obama and the RIAA unilaterally dropping all of its pending litigation and issuing a formal apology to those it has sued.
No, you see, the non-interactive labels that the user actually *sees* still say Name:, Email:, etc., but the *names* of the fields that are passed to the form processor are pseudo-random garbage.
the police framed him, so they don't get to throw him in jail, but he really did kill he
If he really did kill her, then how was he framed? Framing implies pinning guilt on an innocent person. Planting "extra" evidence on a guilty person to bolster your case is wrong and illegal, but it isn't exactly framing.
I'm not saying he did or didn't kill anybody, but he can't have "really killed her" and "been framed" at the same time.
I've heard this argument often before, and for me it begs a question that maybe you can help with.
Apparently these collisions happen all the time in the upper atmosphere, and there is a chance that they form shortlived black holes.
What happens if one of these black holes happens to intercept a spacecraft as it leaves or re-enters the atmosphere? Does it do significant damage?
How much more such operations could they conduct if they weren't so clueless by having agents investigate peaceful protesters and non-criminal **HACKERS** (in the original sense, that is, not meaning "cracker")????
You must be one of the lucky ones. I had Sprint about 8 years ago and my phone went on the fritz. So, I called them (from my office phone) and got put on hold for 30 minutes. I didn't have time to wait, so I hung up.
The next day, I called them early in the morning. I was on hold for four hours. When they finally got around to taking my call, after about 30 seconds the rep told me "Sounds like it's your problem" and hung up on me.
After being hung up on following a four hour hold time, I called back (the account department this time). Luckily, my contract had since expired, so I left those bastards and will never go back.
They offered me a new phone and a $50 credit to stay, but I told them no way in hell.
I think part of the reason people accept it is:
"six studies in total, but they were in broad agreement".
Most of the counter-video game crowd cites purely anecdotal evidence (i.e. Johnny LOVED Street Fighter so he beat the hobo to death). So this one has 6 more controlled studies going for it than those...
Yes, well, while the RIAA can evidently track down and prosecute a 6 year old downloading "Wheels on the Bus", the U.S. government can't seem to figure out which companies are responsible for the SPAM, even with all the contact information that must be available for the SPAM to have any value whatsoever.
What I meant was if the employer said "buy buy buy" always. Not just before key events, but at the end of every newsletter or permanently posted on the cafeteria wall, then it would not be insider trading.
Of course, if the advice is timed to coincide with a financial event (earnings report or something) that is not yet public knowledge, then it is in fact insider trading if acted upon.

I'm just saying, the manufacturing process is the LEAST ecologically unfriendly aspect of computer manufacture.

Is it really?
Rumors are almost always more entertaining than the truth. And that's why we read slashdot, right?
To read the tattoos.
All I know is it won't be too long until "server" isn't politically correct. We'll just have "data facilitators".
You must be new here.
No it would not, the motion of the stick on your end would not propagate instantaneously to the ship.
Honestly, do you care what happens in 2303?
You should read the book. It isn't about 9/11, except for pretty much the cover. How does that old saying go about judging books?

Must EVERY story today be an April Fools joke? Now, I'm playing "spot the real story" rather than "spot the joke".

Oh no.

I guess the business model of high prices, unfriendly sales staff and poor quality merchandise didn't pan out for them.
Are you implying that the lecture halls are homosexual?
Don't forget information about "traveling companions"!
Those are very compelling anecdotes. How did the control group fare?
