Of course the U.S. constitution can and will be repealed, and defence of property is of course a fairly new invention which came even later to America. Funny that, how the staunchest defenders of property as a "natural right" simply stole an entire country. That's how far the defence of property goes as "an end on itself" (sic): it's all about power.
While true, the same could be said for any kind of property. You're saying that I, as a tax payer, have the right to decide over your property, since the legal system that protects it is funded by me.
Mod parent up. If you're not prepared to contribute your own works, or if your works are worthless (which is the case for most Slasdotters), then you're in no position to demand that people who actually contribute something of value should just give it up. You're simply a freeloader and a parasite.
Considering that the Mac version of Valve's titles have about half the performance of the same games on the same machines when played in Windows, I'd bet that no, it's not going to help, and claim that yes, the Mac is (currently) an awful platform for gaming. The cheapest Mac with even acceptable performance by today's standard is the $1,849.00 27" iMac. Which, of course, has far too high screen resolution for its weak Radeon 5750. The Mac Pro is fine for gaming (good CPU, decent mid-range graphics), but no better than a PC at less than half its price. And what percentage of the Mac's 8% market share is the newest Mac Pro? You may as well develop for Linux.
It's not a mistake, it's what they base their business on. The iPhone's connected to you music files, your music connected to the iTunes app, the iTunes connected to the iTunes store, now hear the word of the Jobs. It's there to make it difficult for you to, you know, switch. It's not a mistake, but they do treat the Windows platform worse than Adobe treats OS X. iTunes is to Windows what Flash is to OS X: nearly ubiquitous, but entirely shit. Perhaps so that iPod addicts will buy Macs?
Oh, so it will stream from your computer. Your computer running iTunes. It will stream file formats supported by Apple, and nothing else. It simply does not work in most cases.
Wow, you're a total fucking idiot. And some total fucking idiot think you're "insightful". It never ceases to amaze me how fucking stupid you fanboys are. "I don't want to print, so you shouldn't be able to either!!!" And you think you've actually made a point. That's what's very sad.
Wrong. It has a decent camera for a phone -- but nothing special. Not even for a phone. And come to think of it, you can get phones at practically the same price point with an equally good camera, that can do everything the Touch can, and much more. So why buy the Touch? For the slightly better screen and the gyroscope? It's a fine device, but there's just no reason to buy an iPod anymore. The iPod came along with downloadable mp3s, but streaming is just so much more convenient these days -- at least as an option. And for that, you really want a 3G connection if you ever step out of your home. Streaming is what's going to dominate the market, and iTunes is going to struggle to compete.
Depends on the reason. If the alternate explanation is evident bullshit, which it is in most cases, then I suppose it doesn't have any bearing whatsoever on the one who denies the possibility of it.
Except, of course, that Apple is the master of rumour and spin (the rumours of an Apple phone went on for years before they actually released it). HP is just doing it wrong: they release pictures through official channels instead of sending words to fanboy bloggers. Then again, the community of HP fanboys is very small, if it exists at all.
Flash tends to eat all available memory when I access sony-ericsson.com, slowing the computer to a crawl as it gobbles through 4 GB+ of swap space. Not every time, but far too often. This is with the beta 64 bit version for Linux, though, so I don't expect it to act the same way on other platforms.
Well, Apple's OS at the time wasn't exactly the pinnacle of stability (or anything else for that matter), so it would have made them look a bit silly. Even Mac OS 9, released in 1999, made Windows 95 look remarkably modern.
Slashdot Mirror
As always, the story was outdated before it had come through Slashdot's rigorous editing process.

At least they're better off now than they were before communism, and no worse than most of their neighboring countries.
Cut down on the kool-aid, Kendall.

A week ago. Maybe Slashdot should upgrade to that IBM CPU.

Wrong. It simply does not work if you're trying to do anything but consuming content from iTunes. You're a fanboy and a fraud.

Yes, but an Apple fanboy takes a lot longer to shut up.
Depends on the reason. If the alternate explanation is evident bullshit, which it is in most cases, then I suppose it doesn't have any bearing whatsoever on the one who denies the possibility of it.
True. But most self-proclaimed climate change skeptics are simply denialists.
Yeah, without the MPAA's ridiculous rules, South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut wouldn't even have a fucking point.
And this implies they're dumping Cleartype just how? I don't see it. The summary says specifically that it's about the OS X version.
No, it's not.

Doesn't work here. Just upgraded to 7.0.503.1.

Linux server sounds like a fun game.
No.
