The bottom line is this: "the frequency of adolescent SNS use and the number of their closest friends on the same SNSs were not significantly associated with risk behaviors." It has been known since at least Aesop the birds of feather flock together.
Don't take this wrong, I'm all for discussion of "stuff that matters" on/. But how can it really be that a story about rockets and moon gets, at the time of my posting, only 24 comments while a story about private schooling gets well over 600? Have all the nerds looking for news gone elsewhere?
You wouldn't want just any Jerome Doe being able to write prescriptions for norepinherine would you? At the very least you would want prescribers to be proven knowledgeable the hemodynamic effects of the medications they are ordering to be put into your body, right? That is the very reaon licensing of professionals exist! Why shouldn't the same stipulations be put upon those who prescribe solutions for your computing devices given that those devices are increasingly required just to survive in todays society?
Are you saying that Syrians are open to hearing arguments for free sex, drugs, and religion? If such is the case I'll be out protesting in the morning any interention in a country that guarantees such liberties!
Real Syrians want the US gone. Now personally, I'm okay with Syrians just as long as they are willing to listen to non-Syrian views. I'm willing to listen to their viewpoints, why aren't they as open to mine? I'll even give a preview....free drugs, free sex, and free religion. I'm willing to listen to their views of freedom as well.
What you talking about AC? My retirement account lost money because of their actions, and it's been made clear on here that it will be made certain that none of us older age types can feel depend on social securityc! I say bomb them back to the stoneage!!
There is no need to be terrified of a government where there is democracy and a public that is well informed of its activities.
Unless, of coure, the majority of the public doesn't like the minority to which you belong. In many countries, for example, you still can become a criminal for ingesting a substance that the majority doesn't approve of.
"Normal" people want to turn the device on, watch their movie, then turn the device off until they want to use it again. Sure, you and I might think about the necesity to keep our soft/firmwares up to date...but that really isn't very normal.
Obviously you can't have people walking into movie theaters with cameras active.
How is this obvious? You are not proposing that movie theaters be allowed to be havens for criminals, are you? Besides, wouldn't video evidence of copyright violaters only strengthen claims against them in court?
Even though I am probably among the most anti-police state there is yet I still have to wonder...how do you police a situation when you have no power to police it? Yes, I know there are times this power is abused and that abuse should be severely punished. But to tell the police they can not police seems a bit ludicrous to me.
The one thing that "software for money" has yet to proved is the protection of users privacy. What is the shakedown fee imposed by closed source software that guarantees non-disclosure? Today it seems that even if you pay for privacy some for profit business will eagerly take more to reveal information.
The only thing that will is for all us basement dwellers to step outside and put our lives on the line. Those in power have too much to loose to give up without a lot of blood being spilled.
Microsoft could have ruled forever if they but chose to open source their OS and gave it away for free. Instead what they do? Money today, death tomorrow.
And here I thought the disagreement was whether he/she profited today or his/hers progeny benifeted tomorrow. Linux was designed from the getgo to be hacked. Window's, not so much.
Slashdot Mirror
If they could have done something and didn't, they will at the very least be held negligent for not performing due diligence.
And, funny thing. every study they do ends up saying that the dirty pirates spend more money buying music than the honest non-pirating folks.
If this is true, what is your conclusion as to why the RI/MPAA don't court the pirates? Free advertising is free advertising after all.
This is because those who propose nationalingizing languase are in deed, racist.
If so, then your Linux systems are working fine! Just think of all the stupid ads they would serve up if they thought you were actually intelligent!

You might be at the wrong website. This is SlashDot, not DotSlant.
Or it just may be that it is you who is at the wrong site. Just sayin'....

Only if you choose to check the box adding the extra point.

Maybe it can, but if it does wouldn't that just demonstrate that the exams are testing for the wrong things?
"Pictures or it didn't happen!"
That is the problem with society today.
...a picture is forever. Even if laws were enacted to delete them, backups of backups will preserve them for posterity.
Quit using pounds....easy fix!

I hate to post AC
Why, the best posts on slashdot come from ACs!
