How about typing on the back of every cheque which you send the phrase "By accepting this payment (cashing this cheque) you agree to the amendments and changes to your Terms of Service, as stated at [URL]. Note that these changes and amendments may change at any time, and it is within these amendments and changes that I need not inform you of any such changes."
My Windows 7 RC installation is reported as IE 7 on Windows XP SP2, because half of the video streaming sites I use (legitimate, obviously) break with "AMAGAD UR OS IZ NOT ZUPPRORTREAD." messages, which are absolute rubbish as I am able to watch them in Firefox on Windows 7 as long as I alter the user agent string.
You cam injure burglars. On that same page, there's a story of a man who stabbed two intruders, one to death, and was released without charge. He was deamed to have acted in self defence, as he had reasonable suspicion that the two entered the house with the intent to commit an act of burglary (it is an act of burglary to enter a property to commit a theft, an act of criminal damage, an assault, or a rape. There are other situations which qualify, too. IAALawStudent). Unfortunately, no case is cited.
"The person in charge of a property has a legal duty to protect all its users from foreseeable harm, even if they are on the property illegally. If an intruder is hurt by a security measure - such as glass or barbed wire - that the householder knew to be dangerous then they could be sued for damages under the Occupier's Liability Act 1984."
If it was, I'd donate to a fund to pay his legal bills.
Taking on the FCC, he'd probably need it.

This is why I'm interested in checking the license details of Windows 7 Starter Edition.
Designed to run on a netbook? Less bloat? Reduced cost to the consumer? Win-win.
I use third party media players and don't care about Aero Glass. If it supports DX10, we have a new Windows gaming platform.
Amagad!
I can shave so quickly with my new R^hAzor that the last four letters of the name accelerate faster than the first one!
Whooosh!
I'm afraid ATX supplies won't be needed when the new wireless platform that never needs to be charged is released.
I've seen your comments on here quite a lot, and you seem to be consistently modded insightful for good reason.
You should start a political party, should you feel so inclined, with a view to lobby your local governing bodies for exactly this sort of service.
I'd donate, and I'm not even American. It just so happens that the UK seems to follow you everywhere, so maybe we'll see some fallout over the pond.

What's good for the goose...
The biggest issue with that movie is that you cannot un-watch it.

I find Guy Fawkes more inspiring than any American figurehead.
Same processor, but DDRII here and 8800GTX.
That rig will run a 24" 1920x1200 monitor with all settings up as well. Mine does.
You might want to upgrade that screen.
I agree totally. In fact, I don't think there would be a more eloquent way of putting exactly what I think of the current legal system into words.
Another +6 situation, I feel.
They should call it rtm-dump.
That'll totally fool them!
Touché, SlashDot.
Fix UNICODE.

Don't waste mod-points on this, I don't need the karma, and it's been quoted hundreds of times on this site alone. I think I first saw it on a sig.
Mod someone else appropriately instead.

Just like it does at the US border, huh?
Not in the UK.
