The Esperanto for it is wrong.
Mia kusenveturilo estas plena da angiloj This suggests that your hovercraft is completely made of eels. Try "Mia kusenveturilo estas enspacita de angiloj."
This phrase comes features in a sketch about a badly translated English-Hungarian phrasebook from the British TV comedy show, Monty Python's Flying Circus. Badly translated English-Esperanto phrasebook anyone?
That's not anarchy. That is government practicing its only purpose -- to protect the rights of the people. If you murder someone, you should go to jail because the person has a right to live, but the government should not be the regulating, standardizing, intelligence-gathering, controlling, plutocratic pushover to the rich that it has become. It should stay the hell out of people's lives, except to protect their natural rights.
Oh, come on. Do you really think the manufacturers care if it's good? As long as it's not so bad you won't buy it, that's okay. They're in it for the money - they want cheap manufacturing costs, not good products.
Um, no... The 'print screen' key is so called because it used to print the screen. You know, with one of those doohickeys that make words show up on paper.
Yes, computers can perform routine procedures quicker and better than a pressured pilot. However, even if pressured, that pilot can think for himself, judge, weigh priorities, etc., while a computer only does what it was programmed to do. A computer can't be programmed to do everything in every situation, but a human can think in any situation.
Oh my god, you idiot moderators! HOW THE FUCKING HELL IS THIS COMMENT TROLLING?? You find a comment that you don't agree with, and instantly mod it 'troll'! I'm sure I'm burning up my karma like paper in a fireplace, but I don't give a shit. I'm sick of mods abusing their power and marking things that they don't agree with as 'troll', etc.! That's why I browse at -1, and I've decided to stop moderating too, because Slashdot moderation should be dropped like a hot potato.
Doesn't trying to "balance the power" of small and large states unbalance the power of the people? That is, if I live in New York, my vote counts for less than if I live in Connecticut, whereas if individuals are counted equally, I'm 1.00 people no matter where I live. Who cares if the actual states have more or less power? It should be the people who vote, not the states.
The kid was disobedient and snotty and should be punished for it.
However, the teacher was stupid and ignorant. Ever hear of "the blind leading the blind"? Stupid and ignorant people should not teach, and the teacher should also be punished. People who know nothing about computers should not be in charge of people who are using computers, just as people who know nothing about fire should not teach people how to start one.
Oh, please. Welcome to the United States of America, ye olde plutocracy. Why do you think celebrities can get away with just about anything? Why have Microsoft, Apple (yes, Apple), and the RIAA, et al., gotten away with the horrendous legal practices that they have? They've been doing it for years, and they know how to manipulate. What makes you think that they'll be stopped now? They won't be stopped until they personally piss off the legal system; until then, regretably, they're here for good.

Yup. Ninety-something percent of computer users. The ones who wouldn't try Mac or Linux if their lives depended on it. To them, computer = Windows.
No. Babelfish works with 13 languages. There are more than 2000. Assuming 2000, that's about .65% (three-fifths percent).
That's exactly what I did.
Actually, I use it a lot. Pasporta Servo anyone?
If you don't want to take the time to learn it, that's fine. But don't spend that time bashing those who do.
What the hell is Wikipedia?

Correction (I just made an ass of myself): The print screen key used to be for printing the screen.

Hell yeah! ;-)

There's no room -- their heads are already up there.
Yes.
...about macs ironically.
...Apple Store ironically is one... Word of the day!!!Sure that would have some benefits, but that's just being a jerk to a whole group to eliminate a few dumbasses within it.

And that's why you're only a geekoid. Real geeks survive off cheese puffs, donuts and coffee.
As if this was real...

Engines don't produce sonic booms. A sonic boom is produced when sound waves compound near Mach 1.
Oh, come on. This is Slashdot for God's sake! Blow-up dolls can't get pissed.
If you can't have media files on it, it might as well be 512 MiB.
