It's not like it would be the first time, youtuber Ally Law went up there last February with a group of people and a drone. They caused the bridge to be shutdown as a result too though. Video can be found on his youtube channel though. Definitely a sweaty palm sorta video though
Sure it is! the ability to play a small number of old console games on one program is a totally new idea in uncharted waters. I just squeal with delight whenever I go over to my friends house to play us some super mario brothers on his computer! There's never been a way to do it before...right?!
Good to see someone up top speaking out for a change. I don't understand why more dont follow suit....
If you're a rich billionaire oil tycoon, you could invest in windpower and become a rich billionaire wind tycoon...There's no need to be so hell bent on oil
How is this modded flamebait? I'm so sick and tired of reading poorly mislabeled slashdot stories that tout around the title "CELL PHONE" when the stories usually only relate to a singular brand of phone, or limited range. Not everyone owns a Blackberry, and not everyone owns the iPhone (which is supposed to be next on the list of phones with enough crap inside to support this app).
Slashdot needs to get its shit straight on these stories, I always feel very misled reading cell phone articles.
And Nuclear energy is safe! The closest we've come to something like Chernobyl was Three Mile Island (not far from me), and they were prepared (unlike the commies) and controlled the situation before things got critical. These plants have now been around for while, we know what we're doing, let's get more of them up. It's cheap energy, it's safe energy, and while it be limited like oil, we haven't used up these resources yet like oil, so let's get started on them.
Bah, I totally forgot to DL a copy yesterday...I guess I'm getting chalked up to the bastards who DL it after 1 pm...maybe I'll DL it on this work computer so I can say I was a record setter
I'm curious as to whether or not I should wait to upgrade my Tiger to Leopard, or just wait a year for Snow to come out and just upgrade to that. Though, I dunno that I'll really have a terrible need for SnowLeopard given that I have a first generation Macbook...not even a Pro=\.
I'm kinda surprised though to see a new OS release so soon from the original Leopard...Like they said, it's no major jump...I guess saying it's like Windows 98 to Windows 2000...as opposed to XP to Vista. But why am I making Windows analogies in a Mac story? Please don't hurt me!
I'm also curious as to what the price point will be for its release, and if its release will bring a price drop to the original Leopard making it more enticing to people who haven't made the changeover yet.
Because they're trying to increase both of them...you know, kill two birds with one stone.
Everyone in this day and age wants things to be done faster, and I'm sure all of us/.ers would love having flash drives that are a bit more reliable and don't just randomly die out on you when you need it the most.
But seriously, this is a scary thought to see a country changing it's laws to match this new digital age. If this gets through it could cause a ripple effect in other countries.
While I realize the likelihood of a law such as this would be difficult to pass in the US, you know there's going to be a "monkey see, monkey do" attitude and there will probably be a bit more of a stronger force trying to push similar bills through Congress.
Wait, is this serious? Did I really see MozzilaParty? People are actually going to throw parties for the release of the third iteration of some browser?
WHOA-HO, bust out the hats and Natty Ice baby, we're gonna get drunk for Firefox's latest release!! Who's with me??!
Yeah, I've been using Craigslist more and more for things I want, and I find everything goes a bit more smoothly when there's no hidden fees and surcharges for every move you make.
Ugh don't even get me started on fees....$40 to list a car on ebaymotors? BS
Yeah but the thing is, with an account where I can't accept these transactions, people are still ABLE to attempt them.
It's very frustrating to cancel a transaction, send an email to the person telling them I can't accept it and to send me the money through their checking account instead. It's a process that shouldn't have to happen. If I don't have the business premier account or whatever it's called, then people shouldn't be able to initiate a credit card transaction.
I can't stand paypal. I've had an account since the earlier days before there really were options, though I so rarely use it because without PAYING for an account, I can only transfer money through a direct bank transfer. On EVERY ONE of my ebay listings I have to add a footnote alerting people that they can't pay with a credit card through paypal because paypal won't allow me to do that...
And the only way to be able to do that is to sign up for an account where they take a percentage of all of my transactions.
How does that commercial go? "It's my money and I want it now!"
But seriously, I'm tired of paypal, I just wish it would go the way of the dinosaurs because it's such a frustrating site to use to transfer funds.
God, you know, there may have been a dab of sarcasm in that, but that's not a half bad idea. Bunch of people get together and all throw in the money to rent a T1...It'd be pricey, but nice to break away from the mainstream ISPs that are under constant harassment from record labels.

The Dingoo A320 ate my baby! Wonder if my warranty covers something like that...

That was what I meant. I forgot ME wasn't the same as 2000 =\. But yeah, ME is what we had before XP and I hated it so much
Oh come on, everyone knows the Candlejack isn't real and no one actually gets kidn
Man, I'd love to see NTFS support on Mac....it's so frustrating bringing work to and from a PC =(

Nah man, let's make it easier, at least for the xbox. When you crash, your xbox bricks and it's game over for you.

Oh yeah baby, It's gonna be a night of drunken fun, beer pong, and one night stands. Oh and maybe we'll check out the new Firefox too.

Wouldn't that have made for a more comical and term related joke? Radiohead Changes Tune... Or am I alone?
haha oh man. Pun to the max. I didn't even make the connection on the idea of "burning" software...oh boy
