This was exactly my thought. The energy being produced is there for a reason, if you're going to begin siphoning it off to power other things your body is going to need to generate more. You're not making it materialize out of nowhere
I'm very sorry that a can of Pepsi killed your mother and molested your dog, but don't you think that perhaps this much anger directed toward a company that produces junk food is a little unwarranted?
They provide something that people want, then you rage at THEM for that? If no one was buying their product then they wouldn't be in business, so how about directing a little bit of that ranting in the direction of the general public that supports them, because last time I checked no one is marching into people's homes and forcing cola down people's throats.
Who really cares? Are you rallying against every corporate entity that decides what their employees can view on their work computers? Or is it a different standard because it's a government job?
They're fully within their rights to pick and choose what you can view on their computers.

That is not regulation, that is banning the creation of porn.
While I have no idea whether the overheating issues are actually true or not, every single site that talks about it have the exact same screenshot and video, and despite the artifacting in the video the overheating warning never seems to come up. So either the overheating protection doesn't work at all, or something else is causing the artifacting.
Just out of curiousity, is there a means to stream something like mega video to your TV? Via Xbox 360/tivo/networked blu-ray or something along those lines? I prefer to watch shows on my television rather than my computer, which has been part of what's dissuaded me from using sites like these.
And McCain would have been better? Since losing he's made it clear that he's bought and paid for by the telecom industry. I think the real lesson to be learned from this is that we're fucked regardless of who we vote for, and the US is in an irrevocable downward spiral. Train's pulling out folks, perhaps it's time to get out while we still can.
So then your claim is that there is no law in Pakistan saying that blasphemy is punishable by death or life imprisonment? Or is it simply that the law is on the books but not enforced? If it's neither of these, then the problem extends far beyond one kook.
What I think you like is pissing and moaning, actually. You could easily buy a new PS2, but won't. (Hint: $99.99 for a new PS2 slim off Amazon). You could see if the games you want to play are actually compatible with PS3, but won't, despite being handed a link detailing exactly that. Let's be honest, you have zero interest in your "problem" being resolved, you just want to have a bitch fit.
It's an unusual indicator that suggests something is not right. If there was only a one in a million chance of it happening, that'd pretty much be a confirmation that something was broken, not a suggestion. You can have an indicator suggest that something is off without it being wildly improbably.
Even if you leave your door wide open, anyone who comes in without your permission is still trespassing. Your sympathy or their laziness has no impact on the legality of collecting data off a network you know you have no business being on.
If they'd just pulled and saved the SSID and MAC address then I'd have no problem with that, but why in gods name were they snooping any deeper than that to begin with?
"The process also captures wireless data packets, which can include personal information like e-mails and browser history. According to this report, though, Google doesn't parse or break out that information. If you're running an encrypted network, Google discards all that packet information except the header. But if your network is unencrypted, the data is written to a disk and stored by Google, the report said, which is at the heart of the controversy."
I wasn't saying that I support the decision, simply that it's not exactly surprising that Apple doesn't want Google to get advertising revenue generated through their handset. The relationship between the two has become increasingly hostile over the last couple of years, so while it's an unpleasant move, it's NOT a surprise.

And then the corresponding suicide rates via firearms rise. See Switzerland
Or maybe you don't understand the concept of accumulated effects

Foisting it upon them? Please
We can primarily thank Disney for that

Oddly enough I seem to remember a sonic based weapon along these same lines designed for exactly that intent. http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/techinnovations/2005-11-07-cruise-blast_x.htm Obviously not as fun as microwaving some peg legs, but still cool
Each time I thought it said it keeps frost from killing cops. I was starting to wonder if frostbite was the leading cause of police fatalities.

How is that offtopic?!

This isn't one asshat if the entire legal system of the country supports the idea that blashemy carries a death sentence.
Cause technological advances are only progress if they mean you can get a cheaper netbook right this second.

Yes, it's a game that now has an option for you to play with a real guitar/keyboard. I can't figure out why this upsets you so much.
