Would you please not post pictures of his ugly mug on the front page? I'd rather see a picture of goatse than that douche. As if we don't already have enough reasons to hate idle.
I've actually known this to happen to someone I know, and yep, it was his wife. And yep, they're now divorced. Wiped out his joint retirement funds as well, plus he now owes taxes on the amount withdrawn from the tax exempt retirement savings. I've never actually met her, but people that have said they always thought she was a nut. Total cost I'm told is close to half a million dollars.
And no, it's not the same couple in the article.
Potential problem? Most fungi breathe oxygen, and expel carbon dioxide. I don't think this will be all that beneficial if industrialized on a large scale unless this is one of the rare types of fungi that breathes carbon dioxide. We'll solve the problem with renewable energy while exacerbating the greenhouse gas problem. Greenhouse gases will be produced in the production AND consumption of the fuel.
I dream of the day when an atheist/agnostic person can be elected to the presidency; when a candidate's religious orientation does not matter; when we can truly have separation of church and state.
I disagree. As soon as word gets out that this is possible, criminals will find a way of either stealing or duplicating this technology. Then all one has to do is set up a hidden camera near a door and wait for the rightful owner to come and take out their keys and open the door. Then you'd have pictures of the keys to duplicate and you can rob the place at your leisure with minimal effort. With no signs of forced entry, good luck convincing your insurance company that your place was robbed.
A multi-tasking desktop environment is advantageous if you need to minimize your game so you can do other tasks. EG. you don't have to quit your gamewhen you're stuck and you need to check the web for walkthroughs or hints. This is especially advantageous if you're playing a game that limits the number of times and places where you can save.

Who says I'm American? I didn't say I didn't want a removable battery. In fact, I would love to have that option. I'm just commenting on the economical sense of the price of the battery replacement.
I don't approve of Apple's trend of locking all their product features, but I consider the ipod to be a good product, and there wasn't anything really comparable at the time I bought it. I consider it money well spent considering how often I use it daily.
I suspect that the outrageous pricing is partly to discourage battery replacements. The more people getting battery replacements means less people buying newer products.
That is quite expensive, but I've had my ipod for 3 years already and the battery is still going strong. I use it for at least 4-5 hours every day.
When the battery does die, $85 will buy a much better cheap mp3 player than this old generation ipod. I don't see any point in replacing the battery for a 3+ year old device for that price.
One of the main reasons I am wary of 100% electric plug-in vehicles is the consequences of forgetting to charge it. I forget to charge my ipod and cell phone all the time. This construes a minor inconvenience, as I can charge them in the car or at work. But forgetting to charge your car means you will be late for work, or miss it altogether if you live in a rural area and do not have access to public transportation. This is a much more dire consequence.
However, with a hybrid, you have a lot more flexibility, and it's more forgiving to absent-minded people like me. I have plenty of friends and family members that also chronically forget to charge things and I see full electric plug-in vehicles as a potential nightmare for us. What if after work you and your coworkers decide to drive to a faraway bar for an impromptu party? Do you have enough charge in your batteries? No, you're pretty much screwed. With a hybrid, you just fill it up at the next gas station.

A few audience members had scorched retinas from the spotlights reflecting off Ballmer's head. Ballmer says a new coat of turtle wax was to blame.
to ban members of these groups from the internet. How's that for regulation? Motherfuckers

Selling is legal. Fucking is legal. So why isn't selling fucking legal?

Can someone who got the page to load copy and paste the article here?
Didn't you hear? they've declared The War Against Terror (TWAT)
Why not just use flashblock for firefox instead of firing up IE? You can enable/disable individual flash objects on the fly with flashblock.
In IE you have to let everything load, which is less secure. If the page is full of flash adverts it'll also consume more CPU cycles.

Hmm, would this would make it much easier to develop a PS3 emulator for PCs?
