I think that more people (fallen stars) will try to use this as a way to get their name out and circulating again !
I don't doubt it for a second that P.R. firms find this a surefire way to get someone in the news.
After they do music videos for awhile they will start with "Road Tube" and "The Real YouTube World"
With "YouTube Unplugged" thrown in and there will be no more videos on YouTube.com
Of course they will start YouTube2.com and...................

There is absolutely no reason why the system would not allow the cars to come out, no new cars getting in, that's O.K.
But by staying a little futher behind her you never would have had a "I fishtailed to keep from getting in an accident" story to tell us.
If you knew her lights were not working why would you be close enough to lessen your chance of stopping if she jams on the breaks for the Pink Elephant in the road. (they ARE there).
Drive a Lil' more carefully
I have a 1997 Cadillac DeVille, as part of the Northstar system I have ABS/Traction Control and ICCS (Integrated Chassis Control System) AKA Stabilitrak. My car does what this Jaguar does by keeping the car going where I point the steering wheel, and Cadillac has had it since 1997!
The system does what it is supposed to and does it well, it has saved my ass a couple of times on icy winter roads.
My only problem is that if you are a good driver these systems will help you, if you are the type that pushes a car just because a system like this in in place you will get into trouble. The systems work very well but they haven't figured out how to change physics yet, a 3,500lb car will not change direction or stop on a dime.
The old adage "Just because you can doesn't mean you should" definatly applies here, drive these cars in a "spirited" fashion but a left turn on an icy road doing 60 mph is not in your future.
I thought dragging his wife around by the hair was a little weird.
I hope they take the large black rectangle off his lawn too, too many "friends" hootin' n hollerin' and beating the ground at night around it.
You know for a bunch of "smart" guys they couldn't figure out how to use a mousetrap? or get a cat maybe. Wait, then they would need a dog to get rid of the cat........ "One cat exterminator...whooosh" forget it and the 10 cent motel rooms.
I wonder how much someone from an A/V company paid "Melissa" to leave the guy who wrote the virus/worm ?
Is it just me or does it seem like there is no money to be made with this "underground" stuff. $20 for Win NT/2000 source $4,000 for this. Maybe he should sue Apple, I have to believe he bought an iPod with his new found treasure, and we all know it kills ears dead http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=175984&cid= 14627254
I am going to start a class-action against my Mother, Wife, Cockatoo, every construction site I've walked past, and every person who has ever honked the car horn when my head was under the hood (that's loud you bastards), all of which are definatly louder than 115dB! And my mother absolutely screamed more than 28 seconds a day. On a more serious note....
Oh well, here goes my good karma.
Doesn't anybody take goddamned responsibilty for their actions anymore? I am tired of people complaining about ANYTHING THEY HAD CONTROL OVER ! There are no excuses at all, if your iPod/mp3 player can play 115dB and you know this DON'T DO IT, 110 dB and up will cause pain. If you are feeling pain and you still keep it up that loud then I say you are an idiot and didn't need you hearing to begin with. There is a reason it is called a volume control, it is there to....well you know , stop you from being a danger to yourself. From the article The iPod players are "inherently defective in design and are not sufficiently adorned with adequate warnings regarding the likelihood of hearing loss," according to the complaint, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in San Jose, Calif., on behalf of John Kiel Patterson of Louisiana.
The suit, which Patterson wants certified as a class-action, seeks compensation for unspecified damages and upgrades that will make iPods safer. Patterson's suit said he bought an iPod last year, but does not specify whether he suffered hearing loss from the device.
Patterson does not know if the device has damaged his hearing, said his attorney, Steve W. Berman, of Seattle. But that's beside the point of the lawsuit, which takes issue with the potential the iPod has to cause irreparable hearing loss, Berman said.
"He's bought a product which is not safe to use as currently sold on the market," Berman said. "He's paying for a product that's defective, and the law is pretty clear that if someone sold you a defective product they have a duty to repair it."
I say BULLSHIT "not sufficiently adorned with adequate warnings" should be not sufficiently adorned with a clue. Can we please stop with having warning labels on everything, we as a society (America, EU and others haven't gotten this bad yet) need to realize the Coffee is hot, Smoking is dangerous and fatty foods make you fat. There are too many Lawyers and it is destroying our day to day life. I say that we need to enact "Loser Pays" for court filings & fees and you will see how fast this type of frivolity stops.
P.S. Mr Patterson & Lawyer, can you guys just make money like the rest of us? Apple (and other frivolous lawsuit targets) are not replacements for the Powerball/Megamillions jackpots and years of hard work.
Absolutely !
Now they have Proxys that you can register through, but 7-8 years ago they didn't exist.
I would have used that instead of BS info to get a domain.
Until somebody can show "The Masses" that Open Source is THE thing to use the way that Intel did its "Intel Inside" or Dell did with "Your Getting a Dell ! Dude", O/S will never get off of the ground in the mainstream (read Non-Techie) market.
There is a bright spot that others can follow and that is Firefox. Nobody (me atleast) thought that it would ever get as big as it has, and this is the model that works. Make something that people will see as a REAL alternative to the BIG BOYS, and let word of mouth take over from there. Regular people don't see MS as a problem, they don't care about virii, worms, etc., As long as they can read mail, put music on their Ipod and surf for porn MS is fine for them. These are the same people who give us FREE Wireless access with national carriers like Linksys,Belkin45g and Default so I kinda like them being in the dark !
It just gets tiring hearing the same shit over & over again.
Apparently if you get the power supply off the floor and let air move around it it will stop crashing. Due to some design oversights and lack of foresight as to how the units would be used (on the floor/rug with no moving air around it) if you let the external P/S breathe the XBOX360 will not crash !
This has worked for a few friends of mine so far, let's see what round two of the XBOX360 problems hold in store.
Slashdot Mirror
Grasshopper.
Try that on a motorcycle and you WILL see the difference between Asphalt and (soft cushy) water
Yikes !
Matt and Trey should know her dad then.
OK, cut a potato in half and rub into your windshield/screen.
Viola! instant rain-x for cheep.
Enough already, just use mac filtering and only let in what is needed.
You musta really been sweating through that lil' stinker...............Oh AC, no problem

It worked wonders for Mikey (Life Cereal)
Just find a way to murderlize the King and they'll sell it for $3.99 with a meal
I wish I had mod points for a good "Romeo is Bleeding" reference
test
And this is Dirty Jobs.....of science. Tonight on discovery channel
http:///..org just gives me "server not found" I guess they have been slashdotted !
I guess we shall wait until 3001.
What we need is Motherfucking asses in the Motherfucking seats !

I guess if the IRS came up with "One Click" tax returns Amazon's patent would have to be removed.
At least the US Gov. could have been a little more transparent about it.
