If you didn't hack it then you aren't one of the people i described as trying to upgrade the phone themselves because its not good enough, of course if you just buy a phone you dont deserve it bricked.
They spent $600 + $1440 (contract) on a product, and then had to get someone to specially reverse engineer code to get it how they wanted the product. If this isn't blind, dumb fanboi behaviour, i don't know what is. Have your phone bricked/relocked whatever, and next time learn to buy a good product based on it's feauters not "ooh shiny apple!". Because for the next 2 years you are going to be fighting a battle for ownership of your own phone.
Mod me down if you will, but it was perfectly clear this was going to happen from the day apple and ATT's love child was conceived.
I live in england, my school monitors my internet use, has over 30 surveillance cameras, including in our study area, has finger print activated doors and has my finger prints on file.
America's got nothing on us, don't worry, I'm leaving my school ASAP, insisting they delete all the information and if they don't provide me with satisfactory use they have I'll sue them.
How dare those evil bastards try and offer a product! [/sarcasm]
I'm sorry, but what the hell are you on about, so what if it's been shown, firstly, some people missed it, secondly some people would like to have a copy to watch as much as they want, thirdly, how is it a bad thing for a good series to get distributed in a new way?
SEriously, they'll sell you, an iPod with a good capacity (160gb) OR an iPod with Wifi OR an iPod with a touch screen.
Yes, they could sell you a product with all the features you want, but they'd never be able to go for another 4 generations with no new innovation. I'm sorry, but I prize my features for the mp3/4 player over cutting another 1mm off the back of the case. All 3 of these iPods are small enough to integrate and get a killer product. So why aren't they making one other than they can milk each product separately without giving the consumer what htey want. Does it really surprise you that whilst they are doing this rediculous cut-our-product-in-3-and-sell-them-all-for-the-original-price scheme that they are also taking huge cuts from the overpriced products.
Sorry for the rant, but I can't stand it when companies deliberately hold back, and i find it worse when a company like apple, which everyone loves (i have no idea why, just not being as bad as MS isn't enough) rubs it in people's faces, and people are still shouting OMG STEVE I WANT YOUR BEBIEZ!!!111!
I find it surprising to come from the NYT, but this is such a troll of an article. starting "if you want a new PC you're screwed because everyone knows Windows is shit" going on to say "Apple has a much superior operating system" and ending with "Apple only has a 3% market share because it doesn't want a bigger market share, if they wanted a 90% market share they could have it any time they wanted" And all this suported by the most selective of fact picking.
Hear me out. If he truly didn't want to be spied on, have his details collected, he should be getting the hell out of china, not using it's legal system to sue a company for doing what the government does to everybody everyday.
To fight for your rights, then you don't deserve to have them. "Too many people don't know that they can counter claim", if they felt wronged they should have read up on the subject and they would find the counter claim documentation. Too many people think fighting for your rights can only be done on a march or through the courts, fighting for your rights can just be enforcing them. I highly doubt many valuable videos on youtube get removed via the DMCA, but if they were it's the author's failure to protect their rights that makes the difference.
These conversations are pointless, you have 300 posters, each with their "unique" stats about how their favourite console is best, then the stats about which is selling best, which range wildly from microsoft selling 10 million by now, mircosoft selling 10million before last january, and apparently the wii has sold 2gazillion units whilst no one has actually see a missing space in the line of PS3s on the shelves. Okay, so you get a general over view, but everyone's talking crap and no one knows anything for sure. It does seem strange the same people who wouldn't consider just spouting statistics with no idea whether they are right, suddenly have no problem doing it with consoles.
Mail Merge implementation, compatibility, tasteful default themes, wider selections of shapes, effects and implementations of them. Not to mention it completes the office package perfectly. I didn't go into an essay about the advantages of some features, because I'm not writing an article about it.
Frankly, I find this amazing this got on slashdot, not because it is so anti-MS, but more because its so transparent, meaning it ends up doing it really badly. In the reading of this, all you see is paragraphs about the features of word, then at best maybe a sentence about OO, and then OO is declared the winner. Honestly, I've tried both and this article doesn't bring up any of the really good points MS has going for it, and doesn't bring up the use of Open Office at all- if open office has a feature that word also has, open office gets declared better I don't know why.
There aren't warez hosts, but there are file hosts who refuse to breach their user's privacy, and don't let you browse the files on their server. Then there are the forums where direct links to these files are posted.
It should put to rest all the suspicions about whetehr Take Two was tricking the ESRB, or bribing them etc. in order to get their game out. Unfortunately it's illegal to download, so in order to find out if they are doing that, you must break the law. Why don't I think that'll be a problem for the people in the anti-gaming organisations
Right a piece of code that detects if the storm bot virii are present, then have it format the hard drive. If their computer is putting other computers with real work to do in danger they should be deleted until the administrator learns to use it. Seems harsh but trying to fix a computer thats already infected is almost impossible to do, as they keep changing the virii, so carpet bomb it.
Share data across the ocean, what did they think, they wqould get over charged by their ISP for long distance surfing?!
Seriously, if you are incapable of syncing development between America and the UK you should not have a development team in both countries. I can see how the time difference could be a small problem, but how much does it take to only communicate through e-mail, or I know this is scary, but have one of the offices working different hours in order to keep them in touch.
The police officer in question gets fired, he didn't know the law, when questioned he was too proud to ask for another opinion, and then maliciously prosecutes (correct term?).

Lame joke of the decade award or something?

In around 1 hour, apparently no one cares. Not trying to be a troll, but it sure is empty in here.

Go on, go into your open office calc and divide by 0.

When the second in charge was caught using windows.
No of course not, intel has never done anything as stupid as getting caught.
I know, I'm sorry, I have no idea how I mucked that up, I only noticed after i posted.
