I propose covering all objects with Nerf and sealing all children with bubblewrap until their 18th birthday. Anything less may result in a dangerous owie or booboo.
Only in this way can we ensure the next generation is fully ready for the challenges of adulthood.
Sure, you say that now, but just wait until your silver cable starts giving you.27658's and.79662's instead of 0's and 1's.

And even with a lot of the code and content ripped out of it (like the music) for copyright reasons, and despite not being under the GPL, it still has a fair number of people modding and improving it.

"Even if CDs do become damaged, replacements are readily available at affordable prices."
I thought I was "licensing the content," not "buying the CD." Shouldn't I be able to put my licensed content wherever I want?
Until the companies offer free download replacement of the music I am (ahem) licensing, so I can store that content on a blank CD or wherever else I want, why should I care what they consider "affordable"?
Considering that Symantec recommended uninstalling Spybot S&D to "protect" Norton Ghost (this after their antivirus gave Spybot a false positive -- you'd think they'd be a bit more careful), I think it's cool they've been hoisted by their own retard...er petard.
Look up voting methods, with keywords like Kemeny, Condorcet, and Borda. A lot of search engine algorithms are like vote aggregation methods, where each site "votes" for other sites it has links to. There is quite a bit of stuff on spam page filtering and the like as well.

The one-o loser
Has no brains
The two-o looser

A stumbling boozer

Three-o loooser.
What's going to happen next? Politicians admitting they lied to the people?
Wouldn't this be like Epimenides saying "All Cretans are liars"? Perhaps we can have a few politicians vanish in a puff of logic.
I'd mod you +1 insightful ... if CmdrTaco would ever trust me with his precious mod points.
First they ignore you.
Then they fight you. === You are here
Then they lose.
Then they get a first-round draft pick.
... for Geek holidays, not just the April 1st "Ponies!" version.
strip clubs? Where do you swipe your debit card?
Mod parent +1 insightful. Most of the other posters completely ignored the problem of strippers stealing your credit cards.

...isn't constant, either. Perhaps we can rename them "fundamental variables."
...MIT stole Saratov State University's cannon.
MIT's website slashdotted in only ten minutes?
What kind of sysadmins are they!?
Give them a break, they just got finished with the first physical exertion of their lives.
...he added, noting that many starving children would prefer a fine confection to gruel and cold milk.
...do they break the Zeroth law?
0. A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
Just shorten it to "free-hugger."
Darned free-hugging IPpies.
Don't use cartoons.
Actually, wouldn't that be Genetoo? And wouldn't you be able to evolve species more quickly than you could compile them from scratch?
No, "Politically Incorrect" is supposed to be something that will get you murdered murdered in politics.
Isn't that overkill?

I liked Parsec myself. The synthesized female voice just blew me away.
