If we had 1mb free wireless internet all across the country, the impact would be huge to mobile phone providers. Lots of people would just switch to using wifi and google voice/skype or similar to make calls. 1mb is more than enough to handle a non-video call.
If by weakens, you mean forces everyone to make a stronger EULA, one that protects them against this kind of lawsuit, then yeah, this is really going to weaken EULAs
The only way to prevent over population (and to stop the future people from coming back to "tuuuk ur jubs") is if we all become Gay. Where does Malthus-Darwin stand on this?
It doesn't clarify if the price is for just the Mongoliad, or access to all books on the site. If it is a subscription based system, you would suspect you could read everything they have, at which point it's reasonable, especially if they regularly add additional content to books already written.
I always went along with the idea that Flammable and Inflammable was like famous and infamous. Flammable was one of the intended properties of the compound, but inflammable was being flammable for all the wrong reasons.
Or a Bactor Beam.
Possibly the fact that browser bar searching won't give you results as you type? Not just suggestions, actual results, which this appears to be.
So when I connect up my internet for the first time, I won't run into any naked people by accident. Good.
If I want to look at naked people, the ISP itself will give me what I need to see naked people. Also Good.
The UAE governmant is happy, horny teenagers are happy, concerned (protective) parents are happy. Where is the problem?
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated

Mmmm branes
Oh irony, you are so delicious.
And slightly metallic.

Oh lets just throw everything on it and see what sticks.
And when we finally have a manned mission to lush green Mars we are greeted by the lines, "Feed Me!"

Here, take this blue pill...
Baby Seal, stuffed with puppies, stuffed with kittens, stuffed with hamsters
The Court of Public Opinion seems to.
guilty?

more IOPS than god
God doesn't need any Outputs. It's all one-way traffic with him.
Or, "expecting mothers drank copious amounts of beer during pregnancy, for it's 'antibiotic' properties"
I'd say it's a safe bet you won't insult anyone on /. with that comment
Well I've heard of a 'sugar high', but this really is taking the piss.
When you're done taking the piss, I've got a really good idea what we can do with it. I just need to dig out my old distillery.
"replacing your car's engine while speeding down the highway"

I trick people into opening emails with the subject line.
"FW: FW: FW: Paris Hilton Embarrassing Photo (NSFW)" will ensure that everyone reads important memos.
Why isn't the ex-wife attending court (for an appeal of marriage annulment no less) in her briefs not the subject of the article?
