The nations need to get their collective heads out of their collective asses and see what a Good Thing(TM) hemp is (and I'm not even talking about it's psychoactive properties). Hemp could solve so many environmental/economical/jocular problems it's ridiculous to regulate it so heavily.

Qualified to be payed 20k more than me while knowing less than me after being in the field longer than me and qualified to get promoted to another dept with higher salary. Qualified to write really shitty code I have to maintain^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hrewrite. (And, apparently, qualified to teach a C class once or twice - shudder.)
See, the word isn't misused, it's that the qualifications have little to do with skill or... anything besides politics and ignorance.
A lot of parents pressure doctors for that diagnosis which has led to a disproportionate amount of people in this country taking medication for an illness they do not have because parents didn't teach them how to behave.
Man... I wish I could pressure doctors into giving me prescriptions for amphetamines and/or methylphenidate that easily.
If they are lying to the customers, that is bad. But I would imagine most people do not know how to make a recovery CD, painfully easy as it may be. Also, it would be more convenient than contacting the manufacturer for one.
He seems to be saying that overall it's a good book:D
Is it just me or is anyone else glad to see a review on Slashdot without a chapter by chapter summary? One of the most pointless, pedantic mistakes in book reviews is to summarize each chapter. Hoozah for the writer!
You ever install Ubuntu... on weed? Oh, there's some crazy shit, man. There's a penguin in the distro box. Has he got a gun? I dunno! RED TEAM GO, RED TEAM GO.
Sweet Home is a Famicom game that is, as far as I can tell, credited as being the first survival-horror game released. And, let me tell you, it is quite a bit scary! Scarier than any move I've ever seen:)
It's worth a play if you have a retro-gaming fetish.
For my own benefit, I looked up the left in the OED and it says that the left may refer to a person or political group who is liberal, socialist, or radical, where liberal is said to mean open to new behavior... willing to discard traditional values.
I suppose I'll go with that definition (should have done that in the first place). It's funny, the words really aren't used that way. Kinda reminds me of the old hacker/cracker debate.
You have guessed incorrectly about me, at any rate. I am for limited gun control, like people not carrying around concealed AKs or shotguns. That's a good thing. No, I don't have a particular problem with conceal-and-carry laws. Mistrust of the government is the smart road, trust me. Hell if I'd get a gun though. My knife's good enough for me till the revolution:D
I must agree with AC, your quip about needs and play is short sited.
I live in the USA and think that all drugs should be legalized, prostitution and unlicensed gambling too, no age limit for drinking, free condoms/needles, no "voluntary" labeling of music/movies for profanity, nudity, violence... real, free, socialized public communication media (airwaves, phones, etc), socialized medicine and home/health insurance... radically more democracy (a little bit of republicanism is a good thing though), ugly public spaces as media for visual art, and definitely no banning of transfats/cigarettes/fun poisons du jour.
Anyway, I can't tell what the left is anymore... I get the feeling I can only be called a radical.
that there is so much of this pandering to the big record labels. Where are the studies showing the truth about piracy, sales, and quality of recorded music?
I'm also ashamed that it has been about 10 years since Napster broke and this is still going on. I feel partly responsible. Time to crank up the anarchy.

Just throw some DRM in them suckers.

The average male Slashdot user probably looks a lot like our model -- but has more acne and bigger glasses.
How the fuck would they know? Aren't we all buff über mensch!?
There's an article in the current 2600 explaining just how easy it is to "trick" the XFire daemon into counting time for the wrong executable.
Not that anybody cares enough to skew the results and risk being caught, I'm sure, just saying it's a bit insecure a method.
I would like to see one using Priscilla, Queen of the Desert :)
Thats utter bullshit; the results are only ambiguous if you can't read.
I am a US citizen, you insensitive clod!
Seriously. But you're joking, right?

LOL. That's a good one.
Don't forget http://powerlineblog.com/. My dad uses another one, too, but I can't recall it at the moment...
This shouldn't even be a question. Speech != $$$ in any real way that I can think of. Also, economic generalizations != reality.

Haha, too late by two posts ;)

That's just a sick thing to say, and flamebaiting :(

Seems to be the gist of every other EULA I've ever read...
That's my email address, you insensitive clod!
Thinkpads are simply the most solid laptops money can buy ... a lot more durable than macs.
And you know this how?
You go girl! Slap that MS bitch.
