Part of the issue is that these guys have written the design after 2 or more years exposure to the problem so they tend to forget just how much they know.
why? is the problem radioactive? Some sort of alien compound that causes forgetfulness? Sounds potentially preferable to some of the projects I've worked on.
This bill protects truckers at highway rest stops and campers in their RVs at campsites from adult content.
THANK GOD! someone is finally protecting the nations truckers from adult content.. this is particularly good for all those underage truckers. We'll definately want to get those CB's filtered, as well as payphones, cellphones and conversations in diners. It might take a lot of work, but eventually we'll get everything clean clean clean.
clearly your point that FM radio and Voice recording come standard on other MP3 players is an affront to Apple. The highly protective elite fanboy guard have made sure that you've got your come-uppance with a flamebait mod. Take that unbeliever!
I dunno, my approach so far has been to shout at customers, poke them with sticks and let them know that they aren't smart enough to know what they want. It hasn't paid off yet, but any day now I'm sure it will. people respect honesty.
Larry has a very clear moral standpoint: "You can compete with me, but you can't do so by riding on my coat-tails. Solve the problems on your own, and compete _honestly_. Don't compete by looking at my solution."
Hmm.. and where does that end? Is it dishonest to not re-invent the wheel for your new automobile? This is a tricky area because outright copying of someone elses work without their permission is not right, but figuring out how someone else has solved a problem is kind of the way progress works.
See this just doesnt seem right. Canadians are supposed to be passive and polite to a fault. Americans are supposed to be Freedom loving individuals that hate big government interfering in their life. Where am I? bizzaro world?
Ah well, at least the Canadians aren't burning down the white house anymore..
Yeah, except it sounds like the submitters IP was not involved in the spam complaint. Its difficult to respond to something you never recieve.
If hunting spammers was legal this wouldnt be a problem at all.. Uh. unless someone thinks you sent them spam due to faked headers etc..
At the very least it should be reasonable to punch someone who buys something from spam. The main problem is the vast and bountiful supply of idiots that make it worthwhile for the spammer bastards to carry on as they do.
...since I had to pay for their stupid stadium that I didn't want
yes, but a stadium is useful. what possible use could city-wide wireless networking provide? How are you going to get a hot-dog and a $20 dollar beer out of it?

Then we can start to work on preventing Male Trucker Lactation
This must be for people who are all thumbs around technology.. now if only they could develop something for people with two right feet..
Is that leonard Nimoy?
Boy! its a good thing they didn't put one under the sea.. I dont know if intel would want to take responsibility for a wetspot.
Just because someone's mom doesn't know something about Google doesn't make it new.

..a patent infringement lawsuit involving several patents related to Microsoft's implementation of "Chimney"
I could be mistaken, but I think this might be the "chimney" patent in question.
Whats the equivalent monkeys per typewriter power of this software?
they were just being juvenal.
but to be fair, maybe they offered them chocolate for all that personal information.
who can resist chocolate?
at least they apologized
..no, literally. its made up of old news..
drop the Apollo 12 water valve and step away from the car!

..Thank goodness for innovation!
now wheres that patent application?
It is (IMHO) that it is immoral to take our money and then try to convince us that we can't use what we have purchased.
speaking of morality in government this is from the Ottawa Citizen:
Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 300 employees and has the following statistics:
30 have been accused of spousal abuse.
9 have been arrested for fraud, 14 have been accused of writing bad cheques.
95 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses.
4 have done time for assault,
55 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit.
12 have been arrested on drug related charges.
16 are currently defendants in lawsuits.
62 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year.
Can you guess which organization this is?
It is the 301 MPs in the current Canadian Parliament.
The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws designed to keep the rest of us in line.
All laws should be based on morals. its the moral thing to do. otherwise the cavity of immorality will rot away the molars of our morals.

no?
But, then again, how do you know I'm not just making this up?
..because you were moded up?
you have the support of your peers, I trust you. what do you want me to buy?
A product that is due to come out soon may be coming out soon. Stay tuned for updates.
