Driving is a privilege. And freaking spell license correctly. If you can't spell it, why should we let you do it?
The license gives you the privilege as long as you obey the laws and what not. It's not a right. It's not in the constitution. Your privilege can be revoked very easily if an officer sees you doing something that is dangerous.
Interesting and fulfilling things like Troll Slashdot? It takes 15 minutes to shop at the store. And hell, I live in walking distance as well.
Oh, but you are Canadian. I know what you are talking aboot. You live in some frigid area where it's like 50 miles to get to any place that has more than 50 people living together in a thing called a city.
Yeah, ok, in your case I can see how it can take HOURS to shop.
Yeah. This sorta thing is just lazy. Seriously. Like getting groceries online.....that has to be one of the things I still don't get. Just get your ass to the store.
Yeah. I think they need to get some new editors to breathe life into Slashdot.
One of my favorite sites, MDNews seems to be on top of the ball on their subject matter. Slashdot needs that. Some editors that handle a certain topics only......and are good at it.
If they are giving money to postal codes, why not give some for California for our terrible levy system that needs fixing, and while they are at it, fix New Orleans levys. Spend a couple of billion to save a historic city for another hundred years.
Seriously though, any improvements to XP is a good thing, just that when Microsoft says one thing, and then doesn't do it, it makes you wonder. Apple at least doesn't promise anything.....hell, there is hardly a whisper as to what the next version of OS X will have in it for sure....
No, but you can have a site that will police itself and have some sort of standards. MySpace lacks this. I mean, it's supposed to be some sort of social network. Right? And if you have kids on there, and pedophiles as well, wouldn't you want to keep them apart? Or is education of the risks all you are going to rely upon? Creating a site is one thing. Hell, go for it. But MySpace is a "Place for Friends". Are you going to assume EVERYONE is your friend out there and rely on a 14 year old's education to figure it out?
MySpace needs to do screening. It needs a 18 and under safeheaven where they screen things. I mean, they already do this. To view a lot of the content, you have to have an account.
This reminds me of Ebay, or the current Craigslist. At least Ebay has taken steps to verify sellers, and buyers, and give you some sort of protection when buying things. MySpace needs to step up and do something along the same lines. A verification program of some sorts.
This is true. Parents who give kids unlimited access to the internet and have no clue what little Joe or Sarah is doing. On the other hand, MySpace doesn't do a shred of checking or policing of the site. No warnings of adult pictures (I've never seen any warnings), or content.
Prediction: Big changes ahead for MySpace. A crackdown on content.
No, but parents do. It would be a good idea for MySpace to be set up in such a way that anyone under 18 needs to have some sort of screening. I know kids who are 12 that have MySpace accounts. It's insane.
I mean, they have to do some sort of screening. Hiding behind some clause in some click through agreement isn't going to work. There is no warnings at all for Adult content on MySpace.
And why did something so lame as XXX make it to Blu Ray? Why not something good, oh, say the first Harry Potter Movie. The Battlestar Galactica Mini-Series (not the tv series). Star Wars? T3?
And you think people like Barbara Boxer really know what to do about Iraq? I think we just need to tell the military they have 2 years to get it fixed. They can have whatever they need, but they have to be finished in 2 years and start bringing people home.
It is easier to take on "problems" like this, in an election year, rather than issues like balancing the budget, fixing levees, or fixing the immigration problems we have.
Yeah. Agreed. They did do a CSS theme kind of like the old slashdot on Slashcode. Why not give us, the users, a choice of this new, terrible design, or the old one?
What is the difference? I mean, the Dutch actually have talent. The Swedes? We are still waiting for them to do something, other than have nude beaches.
Awww. Now just cause you live in San Francisco don't be dissing the rest of the States. In fact, there are normal people living just across the bridge from you.
Yeah. The Jabba the huts of the world are singing praises to the Pirate Bay today. They don't need to leave their chairs, and can keep the infusion of Pepsi and cheezypoofs coming.

And if there are DUPES, there is even more love to share.
Plus they have those really neato cars. I see them on the freeway sometimes.
I think Apple should buy them, and then when they make a call, they replace the PC with a Mac. Simple, and then there would be no return call.

However, disabled people have been able to do that BEFORE the online stuff. You should think a little BEFORE you post comments like that.
Yeah. This sorta thing is just lazy. Seriously. Like getting groceries online.....that has to be one of the things I still don't get. Just get your ass to the store.

Yeah, great applications like Calculator and Clock.

No no. We heard "Sell sell sell sell sell". People would buy these titles, not 50 first dates. Or Xxx crap.

Oh my God! Next they will say Terrorists are the good guys. Freedom fighters.
Wait....that's been done.

What they should have done is given users another CSS to choose from. Slashcode is running a pretty close to the Old Slashdot layout but in CSS.
I don't like the colors either. They are lame.
Should we nominate the new Slashdot CSS layout for the 2007 best awards?
I dunno, I kind of am longing for the old look. I think the colors are lighter or something. It doesn't feel right anymore.
Seriously. Zonk, please post Duplicate stories rather than this drivel.
Actually, forget that. Just don't post any stories. Go back to McDonalds.
Somewhere in Microsoft H.Q., all the chairs are breathing a sigh of relief.
