"Business bad? Fuck you, pay me.
Oh, you had a fire? Fuck you, pay me.

Your country's economy imploded, all your clients went out of business, and your currency is worthless? Fuck you, pay me."
Michael Powell certainly did a piss poor job, with, among other debacles, the Janet Jackson and Howard Stern fines coming down during his tenure. I am not sure that makes him corrupt, just an idiot.
This report comes just as copper prices are plummeting due to the worldwide recession, which should reduce the problem significantly. Prices have dropped 60% since spring.
For most of human history, people have lived in small tribes where everything they did was known by everyone they knew...
Our tribal ancestors lived before the days of intense government and corporate information gathering. Had one of the villagers been an FBI agent or a Walmart VP of marketing, they might have acted quite differently
Perhaps they rejected it simply because Europeans didn't understand the "3 strikes" baseball metaphor. They should adopt a "three yellow cards leads to a red card" policy.
there's really no excuse to not involve the public in public policy decisions and create a participatory democracy at the federal level.
I think there's a pretty strong argument that efforts like Rock the Vote which encourage the most uninformed ignorant sectors of the population to participate in a democracy they know little about are partially responsible for the dearth of brains in elected office for the past 20 years. Now imagine if we also had "Rock the Tax Code" and "Rock the Defense Appropriations Bill". No thanks.
So we would still be able to wear swastikas, KKK logos, Iran Revolutionary Guard insignias and NWA "Fuck the Police" t-shirts, but a patch from some gang most of the world never heard of would be a crime?
Southwest aircraft do not have first class cabins, and they don't have ANY knives on board because they do not serve any meals...only peanuts and pretzels.
The next administration will make decisions that directly shape the next several decades of how Americans communicate. The effects of these decisions will be more long-term than those made in regard to the economy or Iraq, but they are no less "vital."
Yes, they usually replace the product with big boobs, or horses, or big boobs on horseback.
I dunno about you, but seeing two of the geekiest men in American pop culture hanging out with Al Bundy doesn't have the same effect.
One of Intel's people was mentioned in the article as being very interested when details of the chip are released, because he's curious how exactly they're virtualizing the x86 instruction set without a license.
Because they can. If Intel starts asking too many questions like that, palates full of legit chips enroute to desktop factories in China might start being denied entry to Chinese ports and airports, or might just disappear completely.

Slashdot being based in the US and having a generally US-centric slant, I'd guess the the US.
All the titles on there are Windows only. Any plans to expand to other platforms?

The saddest part of that valuation is that it's it's only 25% lower than Citigroup's market cap as of Friday.

If the RIAA can rewrite the laws of cyberspace, why not the Air Force?

This sounds about as useful as the Radio Shack Cue Cat.
