First thing Microsoft needs to do is include the wireless adapter with premium systems.
No, believe it or not Microsoft, my router is not within 20 feet of my gaming console, and I don't feel like dropping $100 on your official wireless addon which places your console in striking distance of Sony, and way ahead of the Wii.
It's possible he's smarter than we are, and pandering to just the kinds of retards who are now in the majority of active voters. If he ever manages to get re-elected, I would make a case for his intelligence, though I would do it while crying.
English is so obviously your second language it's blindingly apparent that you're just another self-righteous foreign fuck looking for any excuse to make one more generic and pedantic anti-American post on the internet.
Congratulations. You're now more worldly, and likely to be accepted into the Gay Nimrod Association of Anti-America.
Will slashdot soon begin also posting automobile recalls and various other non-news bullshit?
Give those of us with something better to do than camping in front of Best Buy yet nothing better to do than masturbating while crying something interesting to read, please.
You ignored all of the aspects of his hypothetical, the key one being If you had the power to choose to produce a guaranteed healthy child and chose not to.
Your "rebuttal" is irrelevant, as the children to whom you refer weren't produced by a parent with the power to have otherwise guaranteed their health.
It's got plenty of action/racing scenes that will show off the high resolution, framerate, and 7.1 sound capabilities. It doesn't have loads of CG eye-candy special effects, but what are there will probably make for a damn good display of the capabilities of the format.
There's nothing special about YouTube to keep people there and away from their competitors. Once they earn a reputation like this, I think we'll quickly see a mass migration to more "people friendly" sites. Whether they want it or not, the anti-establishment teens are going to see them as corporate shills and take their eyeballs elsewhere.
CEOs do what they do in the pursuit of more wealth.
The threat of taking their wealth should be enough of a deterrence, and I say should only because I'm sure there's a sociopath or two out there who would/will do bad things regardless of the threat of jail OR loss of money.
Jail should be a last resort. It makes no use of the person or their time, and does nothing to "rehabilitate" anyone.
Those enron executives still have vast knowledge on a variety of subjects, useful skills, and other things. It would have been significantly better use of their time to, say, have them go on speaking circuits at business ethics meetings, or universities, and send the vast majority of money they get from these events to the victims of their actions.
I'm not trying to argue the severity of their crimes relative to others. I'm saying using jail for anything but violent criminals is an absolute waste of resources.
Jail is supposedly for the rehabilitation of criminals too violent to be safe in society.
If the state were actually interested in justice, people who do things like this would simply be forced to pay significant financial restitution to those they screw over. At least make these people do something positive with their time, rather than filling another space in our already overcrowded prisons and pumping more money into the state's coffers.
Really, why does the california government deserve $30k?

And throw off the feng shui of our apartment? Not likely.

God knows it'd be a technical impossibility for yoghurt manufacturers to include the expiration date in the radio tag.

Insightful? Garbage.

Maybe then he'll do the dishes, or shower.
So he performed a generic man in the middle attack, recording information transmitted by modem and decoding it?
Hasn't this been done a million times before? Wouldn't it be easily performed with any sort of sound recorder?
Ass to mouth is probably a good guess for what runs over Verizon's FIOS pipes.
Average user won't need Vista.
I'm guessing you didn't see the movie.

It was a terrible joke because it was incomplete.
I was hoping for a reply from someone asking "what kind?"
To which I'd reply, "Niggers, of course."
Marketing a consumer version for those with certain types of roommates.
I'm in, but I want our front page to be this clip.
In English though.

I would like to append to Taco's first salvo that "everything else Digg users like sucks too."
Yes, this is tongue in cheek. Mod me troll anyway.
That must be him swallowing the advertiser's load.
Why are editors publishing stories to they front page they themselves consider unimportant?
I think today I will begin looking for a pair of glasses. :o
And with zero dollars, you aren't going to have much of the latter two.

You got one of those new mp3 playing fleshlights?
That doesn't justify jail time.
