Christ almighty. This is proof people will whine about ANYTHING!!! If too many lights on gadgets is your big problem in life, consider yourself blessed.
By the way - I've got a MacPro, Dell 30" monitor, and Apple keyboard sitting here. I can see exactly one light (power switch on the monitor). The MacPro has one light too, but since it is sitting on the floor under the desk, I can't it. Maybe you could try such a setup.
Please, please, please do not add keychain integration to Firefox on the Mac!!!! The main reason why I use FF rather than Safari is because FF does not have this. I do not use Safari because it seems to want my keyhain password every 3 seconds, asking multiple times in a row before I can even do anything. I do not use the keychain, I do not know what my keychain password is, I don't care what it is, and I can't seem to find any way to turn it the fuck off or otherwise delete that useless bitch. If you DO add keychain to FF, please at least provide a clear, easy to find, and comprehensive way to TURN IT OFF as far as Firefox is concerned. Otherwise, I will have to find a new browser ):
"Borders would collect sales taxes in all 50 states, the company said."
If that is true, then they are ripping people off. Not all states (such as Alaska for example), have sales tax. If they are charging people here sales tax, then they are pocketing it as extra profit - probably illegally too.
I'd like to see how this car does in crash testing. Sure, it's easy to make a light-weight car that can be pushed around with some compressed air, but designing one that doesn't kill all its occupants the first time it hits someone walk across the street, let alone a Hummer, is a bit trickier. Where is this car going to be produced? India? I somehow doubt the safety standards are all that high.
SCUBA air needs to be pure and clean. You pay extra for it for that reason if nothing else. Plus, SCUBA is an expensive hobby. You don't see many inner city youth taking it up as their hobby. Face it - divers tend to have money to burn, so of course they will pay more for their air (I'm a diver too by the way). Now, air for your car - hell, it can be any ole dirty air you want it to be. You're not going to be sucking it into your lungs at high pressure, so what difference does it make? Of course it will be cheaper than filling a SCUBA tank.
TT should put in a "takeout the evil lawyer" mission in the next GTA. They could make it so obvious they are talking about JT, while being sure not to mention him by name, etc. to maintain plausible denyability. That would just be great. It could be one of those missions you can play over and over again, with it getting a little harder each time. What could the mission reward be? I dunno - but it would be pretty funny and the ultimate revenge. (:
Complaints about this kind of stuff are ridiculous. It's like the complaints about Walmart. Sure, people complain before it comes to down, but then they shop there anyway. You know, if no one shops there, they will not be there for very long. Same thing with content. If the terms of use are so bad, then do not use it. If enough people do not use it, then the content will either go away (generally not a bad thing considering that almost all of it sucks anyway), or the terms of use will become more favourable. The "problem" is that most people do not have the willpower or self control to just turn it off. They can't get by without their 24, Alias, Friends, or whatever other trash they are addicted to. JUST TURN IT OFF!!! The terms of use problem will then go away, one way or another.
