What I really fuckin' hate about digg's captcha system is that they use it on signed in users (not that they allow anonymous posting)... it's not as if we don't know that the admins closely monitor and pass judgement on accounts anyhow, abuse could by swiftly dealt with.
You look at what other's are charging, decide what kind of margin you want given your costs and pick a price. As others have said price-fixing is collusion, that is *any overt communication regarding market conditions*. Look up Standard Oil.
Multi-user plugin is part of the core now (since 5.2), but you have to select the right option when prompted (my clueless admin thought that shared meant full control). Even then, it's still "usable", but changes to preferences are lost.
Mouse scrolling is by line not screen, cut&paste of cells is not intuitive and available special options are reliant upon the phase of the moon and a PRNG.
And while I'm not sure if they actually do anything with them, it is interesting to note that OOo's bug tracker lets anyone cast a few votes on what they consider to be major bugs.
Gee ya think? I wasn't aware that either of these translating compilers spit out client agnostic code. Did you stop to think I might have been saying that, discounting Mono:
Java is available for everyone?.NET is only available to MS customers.
I don't relish the chance of developing with either but I'd be more likely to pick up a Java toolkit, thank you.

Nope, sometimes you don't have enough water so you burn a fire break. Of course, the term is usually used to mean fight dirty fighting by fighting dirty.
There's no reason that wouldn't be true of officially sanctioned extensions that ship with the core. I was thinking of things like Perl, etc. that have a subset of the "most useful" of all available modules included
Right, well then you ship the core with a standard set of usability/feature extensions included for people to enable/disable at will. It'd also help if they had a better central repository.
Ayup, we're one of the few western countries with a voting holiday or (luckily) compulsory voting; think T-shirt of stick man pointing an AK at another stick man in a booth, "Vote. Because you still have a choice."
As I've mentioned elsewhere, if certain parties would balk at yet another (federal) holiday, why not celebrate Martin Luther King day on November 2nd? Or maybe Memorial Day? Get people to put two and two together and *maybe* just *maybe* come up with an answer other than "three"....
As for all those bitching that we've bitched at all voting since 2000, could it be because it all fails the simple criterion of "making it easier"?
Use computers for tabulation but have paper backups, and give everyone an anonymous ticket! No polling, no calling the election. The next day, you can check your ticket against records online, or in the newspaper or via a phone tree or something... Then we find out who the next shcmuck to hate is. Do we really need to know that night? Can we know? It's not like the bastard even gets the job for another three months. Where's the fire?
Right, because searching for software for a given platform couldn't possibly happen?
Anyways, compare free *; BSD omitted for hopefully obvious reasons. Or download *. It'd seem that they're roughly scaled to number of users or some such metric.

I guess they're relying upon people being able to do the calculus, and look at it as a deposit rebated across use, and not some kind of initiation fee. But hey, whatever, your loss. At least you didn't join back when they first started and a memberhsip was $300 (to cover insurance). Sure, the hourly rates were a bit lower but you paid for your mileage too. Personally, I've been a member for 3 years and only taken a car out twice... but I have no problem with the plan (other than that I'd like to receive a reminder when the annual fee is going to be charged).

That's cooking. What they call it happens to be apt, it's just following a recipe.
As opposed to research and experimentation.

If it it were technically true, so what?
Why the hell does a text editor need to block the UI while writing to disk?

Yes, they released their source.
And yet the Y chromosome is evolving more than the X, what's your point? :-P

It doesn't matter, the ends don't justify the means.

More proof patents suck :-P
Availability of the implementing technology is an objective difference.
I'd argue the problem is people reading into comments things that were
not there, and not seeing things that were.

Java's more accessible than .NET?
