This is probably the best thing they could have done. By naming the treadmill after him, they didn't have to name the whole module after him and they still get good publicity from Colbert's show.
Grandma who just wants a couple of recipies every now and then, and occasionally looks at baby photos posted on thier adult children's Facebook accounts (and is not pulling down 10GB/month)... only pays a little bit.
There are a lot more people who use the internet like grandma. They would lose a lot of money that way. What they would like to do is squeeze every penny from everyone, not just a portion of the customers.
I can't watch these at work, but something tells me if these do go to mainstream tv and advertisements, it is only going to hurt Linux. They will probably either be too incredibly dorky for the "cool" Mac users, or go right over normal Windows users heads.
If only they could come up with a really good spokesperson. I know, how about Jerry Seinfeld?
I wish more companies would start opening up their software once it has run out of life. If Microsoft really thought that XP was no longer going to be good enough for pc's, open it up to the community and let people learn from it and tinker with it.
There was also a glitch where if you jumped over the flag pole you could run to the right infinitely. Sucked because you couldn't run back to the flag pole once it was off screen.
I agree that games like chess are really a bad example for larger scale games. When you can have many opponents interacting with each other in an almost infinite number of ways realistically I will be impressed.
When a chess game comes out that can have the opponent react realistically when I pee on his leg under the table or start replacing chess pieces with dog poo, then we can talk about chess AI.
This is very informative as far as the laws about covering a song goes. But, except for the first two Guitar Hero games, almost every song in Guitar Hero and Rock Band are original recordings. Only the songs that they cannot find master tracks for are covered now.

This article is about how the gaming industry may be the only one that is recession proof. Well, that and hard liquor. People still need an escape from reality.

Why Not Just Metered Service?
I think you answered your own question.
Because,

and still haven't had to pay a dime in taxes. I guess when you operate at a loss they nothing to tax.
Why do these young girls make so much money, while I (the hairy assed nerd), make nothing?
The first thing I thought of was the suit they wore in aliens to move the big machinery around.
So naturally, my second thought was: "BAD ASS!"
Why would you want to measure Venus' anal temp... OH, annual temperature.
What does that word mean? Are you sure you didn't misspell it?
This troll actually gave me an idea. Why not ascii art?
Give an ascii art picture and asc the user to tell what it is.
In this case cock would let you through.

If you work a 40 hour week. 20% a day would come out to 8 hours a week, or a whole day.
Does that mean I would still be more productive if I worked hard 4 days a week, then spent all of my Friday reading slasdot and playing games?
This isn't twitter, nobody cares.
Wait, maybe that makes it just like twitter.
I don't see what you did here.
You are exactly right. Anybody can type boobs into google and it will find all kinds of sites with boobs.
But it takes a google master (like you and I) to type in Big Natural Boobs. You get exactly the kind of boobs you are looking for.
And that my friend, is what I like to call dropping the GoogleBomb.
I mean seriously, really, did they make that up? I bet he caught a lot of crap growing up.
I started to go and create an account by the name of DouglasAdams just to come on here and tell people to let it die so I can rest in peace.
But... I'm lazy.
to be thinned from the herd. This thing sounds awesome.
Can it do any sweet jumps?

No it doesn't! Today is my 27th birthday, and I can't tell a bit... wait, what were we talking about?
Hey! These guys are pissing me off. Since when is it okay to take a bunch of other people's music and make it into your own?
How would these mashup "artists" like it if I took a bunch of their mashups and mashed it up into a "Double Mashup"?
Oh, what a monster mash of "art" that would be.
Check out that picture, the robot is showing her his "oh face".
Girlfirends? This is slashdot you insensitive clod.
I've seen 8 American karaoke labels die in the last 10 years, and as of now there's only like 3 or 4 left.
Finally, some good news. Now if we can just rid ourselves of all the Japanese labels too. They are horrible at translations.

How about this one:
Biker 1: "I say we kill 'em."
Biker 2: "I say we hange 'em, then we kill 'em."
Lady Biker: "I say you let me have him first."
All Bikers: "OOOOHHHHH!"
