I would think that that would have to really hurt. Ever open up a computer? Of course you have. With all those sharp parts in there, it might not be cheating on your significant other, but it would sure cause a trip to the emergency room!
A camera inside the TV to see how many people are in your living room watching that pay per view you invited all your friends to watch? This is just getting silly....
The 60 bucks is justified. It's made from the finest Corrinthian plastic availible. Sega: Machines for the distingished gentleman.

Yeah, I sorta agree with you. But, everytime I look at someone's files for something interesting and see Screwdriver songs, I swear, nothing makes me crindge more... This is the 21st centry for f*** sake...
Well, if those martians give us any trouble, we could all ways break out the Slim Whitman records. Shock troops armed with the sounds of the yodeling cowboy. Yeah!
User finally connects to a representative after being on hold for an hour.
Tech Support: "Hello, this is John at Armz and Legz Tech support."
User: "Um... I cant get up."
Tech Support: "Can you wiggle your toes?"
User: "Nope".
Tech Support: [pauses] "Let me transfer you to Teir 2 support. I have to admit, this is my first day on the job. They will be able to further assist you. I'll put a trouble ticket in for them to work on. You should be up and walking in no time..."
...and user finally is up and walking after 3 weeks...
What they say:"In the unlikely event that Amazon.com Inc., or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets."
What they mean:"In the event that we get bought out, you and all information about you will be sold like cattle, whether you like it or not. So there."
You see, I had a feeling that Lucas has a soft spot in his heart for Kenny. My original theory on this...
I know I'm milking the same joke twice, and I know a jedi craves not these things. Consider it influence of the dark side of the Force... Or maybe it's Bert's fault.
I don't know of any sites that you could rent movies on line, but if you like classic B-movies (they have the original Night of the Living Dead in streaming video in it's entirety), go to movieflix.com. If you like independent films, try atomfilms.com. They have some pretty funny stuff there. Both sites are free.
Ok 10 bucks a month, I stand corrected. But, my point still stands. I don't think I should have to buy a game and then pay a monthly fee just to play the damn thing. How about give us the game free and then charge a monthly fee. Then I might consider it.
"Ok, let me get this straight. I buy this game for $40, install it, and then I have to pay an additional thirty bucks a month so I can play it? No thank you..."
I really don't think that in this era of so called "informational freedom" we should have to pay a monthly fee to play some goofy game online when we are already shelling out $20-$60 (depending on what ISP) for internet access. I mean come on, we already bought the damn game, just let us play it! Screw Everquest, if I want to play a game online, I'll give my money to Blizzard (i.e. Diablo 2). But I do applaud the efforts of these individuals to try to emulate an EQ server.
Kid: "Mr. Owl, how many lawsuits does it take to get to the center of Slashdot?"
Owl: "Let's find out... One.. Two.. Three [CRUNCH!]. Three.
The world may never know...
Why does it seem like latley the only news coming out of technology today is some sort of litigation? Three posts on lawsuits in one day? That's got to be a record. No offence (and you can mod me down if you want to), but has it come to "No news is good news, unless it's court related"? I would rather talk about what these comanpies are releasing then what these companies are doing to each other. Just my opinion...
Slashdot Mirror
please.
Yeah, but a foot massage is touching a woman in a farmiliar manner. Marsalis knew it, Mia knew it and Tony should have F'ing known better...

Haha...
Yeah, I've read that... It was hysterical! I think I'll go read that again. Thanks for the link.
I asked Jeeves "Where can I find a good search engine?" and was directed to a really good site where I can buy engine parts for my car online.
Thanks for nothing you bastard butler!
Just another example that moderators should not have a glass crack pipe within arms reach when moderating...
But seriously folks, a hard drive with no moving parts would be great. No moving parts = less of a chance for hard drive failure.
I nominate Michael Palin. He obviously can deliver the line well. The proof is in the beginning of every episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Finally, boy scouts all over the world can finally be provided with a left-handed smoke shifter.

Thanks for giving it away you big jerk. Now I have no reason to watch the sequel to the Sci-Fi miniseries in 2002. :P
[said with weirding way]... forget this last post. Moderators, mod this post up to 10-insightful.......
Well, if those martians give us any trouble, we could all ways break out the Slim Whitman records. Shock troops armed with the sounds of the yodeling cowboy. Yeah!
...but the technology has to develop a lot farter to make it economical.
That mistake is just too easy to make fun of! Haha.

Yeah. And just think of how cool it would be to see posts on "Sonic the Hedgehog Security Vuneralbility (sp?) Update 3.2". That would be cute.

What the heck is this guy really trying to tell us? And I thought this was a kid's site.... [Rimshot]
