holly cow, I hope they won't be busting any slashdot users then.
Why did I have to be born on planet earth? Technology evolves but those damn humans don't. First they kill for freedom then they kill freedom. What a bunch of idiots.
Vince should have created a Hockey league instead, now nothing can get rougher than hockey. Fights, bodychecks, slapshots and more shots. Hockey is way more spectacular than Football, you won't need extremely talented players to put on a show. I'm sure he'll still be able to put cheerleaders, it's not very cold in a hockey arena. Personnally i think cheerleaders are wasting their talent but I don't mind watching them:)
That Vince almost got it right, oh well I'm sure his XFL league will do well anyway but I hope he'll create an XHL to. We Canadians love nothing more than Hockey
Are we talking about.wma files in Windows Media Player 7 or something else? Because I see absolutely nothing that prevents piracy in.wma files. It's mp3 files in wma format.
I read on zdnet that it is supposed to make it as easy to buy songs as it is to pirate them, that way more people will buy.
Mainstream? Apple's share is not even 15% how is that mainstream?
I gave OS 9 a try, it sucked big time and crashes a lot. Hell you can't multi-task while doing a CD-Copy, now that's crap. And what am i supposed to do with a one button mouse? If the interface is supposed to be easy how come I can't seem to handle it? Geez even UNIX command-line is more user friendly than that piece of crap. And the interface is ugly as shit for some reason it gives me the impression that i'm using a monochrome monitor
There are plenty of skinz who look like Windows but MS aren't a bunch of morons to sue. Apple on the other hand just seem to look for an excuse to sue anyone. Why not sue the entire Aqua Blue planet?
"Java is a trademark of Sun Microsystems. Could that be why Microsoft is calling its next J*v*-like product.NET instead of Java? " .NET is language independant. You can use PERL, Java, Python, C#, VB, whatever the hell you want

Java will even be used in the.NET platform and.NET is going to last very long.
hey calm down dude, Bush might sue you for corrupting the fragile little minds of innocent slahdotters. He probably sees you as a cult leader or something.
Sorry I don't remember, they talked about it briefly on television, on the TLC channel if I remmeber well. Oh and just to make sure I'm not confusing you I wasn't talking about the DNA thing but the video surveillance on the streets.
You may not know that yet but this is also done in a few US cities and what's shocking is that most people in those cities aren't against it, au contraire.
It's a different world out their.

Great at least there's someone who shares my opinion. And why do Open Source hackers contribute to a very proprietary Hollywood movie? Guess they're even more money hungry than M$.
Remember MGM --> MPAA. Suddenly it's okay for linux hackers to participate in the development and watch the movie of an evil company? I'm pretty much disappointed
What's wrong with that? I have absolutly no problem with that at all! It makes people at least take an interest in who is running the country, unlike the US, where the turn out rate is pathetic
Funny guy, you want a government who tells you if you should vote or not? Now that's pathetic. and I don't see why anyone would take interest in politics, we got nothing good out of politicians except taxes, wars, more taxes. I have to handed to them though they teached me how to find good excuses and make better lies, they do have some good technique in that field, actually they're the best.
Is their a company that haven't been sued yet? All the profit that this companies make goes in the pockets of lawyers.
People even get sued for exercicing their right of free speach.

The invention itself is as interesting as the inventor. Kamen -- "a true eccentric, cantankerous and opinionated, a great character," according to the proposal -- dropped out of college in his 20s, then invented the first drug infusion pump; he later created the first portable insulin pump and dialysis machine.
Of course he knows what he's doing he dropped out of college.

RedHat and Mandrake should use babes to sell their product. I'll go with the one who's got the most attractive babes.

Giving away stuff for free? Is this some kind of charity organisation or are those people priests?

Yeah sure I believe you, and I invented the idea of one click websurfing. They owe me big time.

Yes we've had this since last year and we kept our mouth shut long enough. Canadian people are too peaceful for their own good.

My guess is that they're patenting the whole Information Technology field, by 2002 they'll own all geeks.
