Too bad their search engine sucks... I searched for: homepage, and my homepage wasn't in the results. Contrast that with Google, where my homepage is the #1 hit.
When I worked at the University of Memphis, they used old hard drives and such. They disassembled them, glued them to a board, and then put them in shadow boxes.
If it actually costs you less to buy a machine with Windows in it, why aren't you complaining about the "Linux tax" instead? We should all be so lucky to pay a "tax" that puts money back in our pockets instead of taking it away.
#1: The difference between DVR and P2P that seems to be escaping you is that with a DVR you are paying the cable/satellite company for the TV that comes into your house. With P2P, you don't even need to be living in the same country as the person that paid for the signal.
#2: A TV show season rarely fits on less than 5-6 DVD's (especially if you include bonus footage.) A movie DVD almost always fits on one DVD (with the exception of some special features). How is this "orders of magnitude" higher than DVD?
I'm obviously worth more alive than dead. Think about it... I have some 25-30 good years of work left in me. Even if I only made $20,000 a year, that's still a worth of half a million dollars over the next 25 years. If an employer is willing to pay you that for your labor, that must be your worth. Add to that your contributions to society that aren't directly related to your job, and $250,000 seems paltry.
This country isn't big enough for the two of us, apparently. I would suggest you leave, but you'll likely have trouble boarding an airplane without an ID. I hear Canada is nice this time of year... What with Global Warming and all it should be in the mid 80s.:-)
I know this is Slashdot and all (and no one reads the articles anyway), but we can't even pretend to read the articles in question if you don't give us a link. Sure, the PDF is great, but how about linking to the actual article?
Then try it in Federal Court. The product may be made in one state, but if it is distributed across state lines that makes it covered under Insterstate Commerce.
I bought and used a $10 program called iPhoneRingToneMaker that works without messing with my firmware. It simply copies the ringtone to some kind of folder on my iPhone. When I reboot the iPhone, voila! I installed the update, and no firmware reset was nessecary.:-)
"While many technology companies load their products up with buttons, Steve Jobs treats them as blemishes that add complexity and hinder their clean aesthetics. The iPhone is Steve Jobs's attempt to crack a juicy new market for Apple Inc. But it's also part of a decades-long campaign by Mr. Jobs against a much broader target: buttons. The new Apple cellphone famously does without the keypads that adorn its rivals. Instead, it offers a touch-sensing screen for making phone calls and tapping out emails. The resulting look is one of the sparest ever for Apple, a company known for minimalist gadgets.

I'm talking about using my real name. My homepage isn't "aardwolf's homepage". :-)

I find your point of view of "hypocrisy" to be hypocritical.
The viewpoint you're mocking believes that innocent life should be spared, while the worst of murderers should be put to death.
Your viewpoint is that we should save the lives of the murderers, but continue to put to death the innocent unborn.
Well, considering they can get Linux to run on a toaster, you'd think that would be a no-brainer...
They also own http://www.urnotme.com/ which is only slightly better.
Only at Slashdot can Apple's overcharging be the fault of Microsoft... :-)

So many things wrong....

Obviously you haven't seen any "hacker" movies in the past 15 years or so...
Why don't they use the same algorithm to blur the naughty bits?

Remind me to give you a swift kick in the nuts if you even think about coming to my house...

None of that matters... Bottom line, if the airlines don't know who you are, I don't want you on a plane with me.
Yeah... Using Netscape 8 would pretty much make anyone switch from PC to Mac.
Good luck building an iMac...
Did anyone else read the headline as "Press Release calls Ballmer an Android"?

What I want to know is, couldn't he have at least taken out his retainer for the mold?

He wouldn't be able to change his mind... it would throw all kinds of fodder into the argument against free will.

That, or destroy the universe as we know it.
It's called a pilot.
