I've got a similar setup. Netflix for streaming obscure stuff, Sickbeard + SABnzbd + Newshosting.com for downloading 720p TV rips, and there's a lovely bar down the road that I hit up when there's live sports I "can't miss". The day I gave up my $100 cable bill and my two TiVos, I wasn't sure how it was going to work out. But honestly, I don't miss it a bit. I watch as much or more TV as before, and don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. Of course, I'm 'stealing' TV from Usenet, but that's a moral decision I can easily live with.
Sugar is definitely toxic in high concentrations for some organisms - that's why it's used as a preservative. High concentrations of sugar kill many bacteria.
This has more to do with the tonicity of the solution. Any solution with a greater solute concentration that the cytosol will kill bacteria as osmosis causes the cells to crenate.
I pity the fool who spell's all his word's with apostrophe's. English, motherfucker, do you speak it?
Instead of spiraling into a grammar rage, as I normally would, I'm just pretending it was a clever possessive apostrophe joke about being "owned".

Sumatra is my PDF reader of choice now. The program consists of a single executable, it's open source and GPL'ed. As long as you all you need to do is load and read PDFs (imagine that, a PDF reader that just reads PDFs), it gets the job done beautifully.

Slashdot doesn't respect the first sale doctrine!

Grow up and get a new perspective.

Discworld already did it.
Good point.
