And McDonalds serves the coffee in pressurizzed styrofoam/cardboard cups? Damn, gotta get some of that. I could use some lightweight vessel cabable of keeping liquids pressurized well over natural boiling points.
All the McDonals in my country serve coffee from open pots btw. I can imagine they could hold it over 100C in some kind of serving machine.
If I buy coffee, my first assumption is that it is about 100C when poured. If it is a soft cup with a lid, my first instinct is definitely NOT to apply pressure to the cup and remove the stiffest part of the structure, removing the tension holding the cup together.
The lawsuit is bogus, retarded and meritless. Even if they serve the coffee in hottest possible temperature the could, it's still the lack of forethought by the dumb bitch who scalded herself. I understand that she was mighty pissed off with the hospital bills and felt that SOMEONE should pay them instead of her. For some reason there is some intuition that tells that SOMEONE should pay atleast the bills, because she already got so severely punished for her stupidity by having life long scarring. But no. The fault lies with the woman completelly. Yes, it's tragic she got burned so severely and is stuck with huge hospital bills, but there isn't magical SOMEONE around this story who should share the blame, even if you have a huge multinational evil hamburger chain involved.
Stop touting that the woman was somehow less of fault. Even if the cup held burning thermite, provided that that's what she bought, it's still her fault. Even if McDonalds served their burning thermite at 5800C instead of the more popular 5400C. Even if it was cold tomato juice, she would have still spilled it in same fashion. Now should SOMEONE pay for washing her clothes and cleaning the car? Didn't think so.
PS. Sorry. It got a bit long winded, but I'm just so sick of this piece of shit of lawsuit and the idiots defending it.
Now, listen, everyone. Stop using this stupid word! It's Fan Boys. Fanboys. Just people who are fans of something. For fucks sake, it's not some kind of French-derived cultivated word.
Bet you pronounce it as fänbjüâas aswell.

Uh... Am I interpreting you right, that you think Russia is an European nation?

Hehe.. Thanks. Just today I fished out a pencil out of my washing machine. Pencil which was torn to bits lengthwise and some of the more pointy and sturdy bits had got to the rubber isolation wall between the drum and the glass front. The insulation is now somewhat "broken in" and I'm considering if I should call a repair guy to look at it before using it again:)

Perhaps I could come up with a business idea... Yes! I got it! Perhaps we could integrate some kind of "trays" in the printers, which could hold different kinds of paper. To make it even more convenient, perhaps we could have some kind of interface to the network printing system where you could select what kind of paper you would like to have, without even knowing what tray to use? God damnit! I'm a genious! Anyone want to team up with me to make this happen? We could patent it and call it EZPRPRHNDLNG!!!111
If your honda has a bad muffler, do you trade it in for a yugo? What kind of analogy is this? Did you blow a tire on your Skoda? Wanna trade it in for Lada with broken drivers seat?
Yeah, and if you'r not a complete tool, you can notice it's another episode of Roland's unfound fuckwit optimisismism for the fjuuuuture. He know exactly how to write an "exciting" blurp for slashdot. Every marginally intelligent person here should be able to notice Roland's annoying style before even getting at the "More"-link. God damn asshat, I hope he dies soon. I really do. Or atleast I want to kick him in the crotch as soon as possible. Fucking annoying bullshitter. I want these kind of fuckheads OUT. He doesn't know _anything_ about technology, but writes these exciting headlines every-god-damn-week to drive hits to his shitty blog.
I've just spent a weekend with my wife and kid. Tomorrow morning I have to go work for the week 150km away again. I'll see them on next friday again. And my cars tires are shot. I need new ones. But I don't have any money. But I gotta get there to get money... to buy new tires... to get there....
And this is the simplest of the problems involved.
I'm not expert on Swedish law, but if it's anything like Finnish I'd say there's no need to worry. They are most likely investigating charges against the three detained persons. Thus, they are supposed to find evidence related to the charges against these people. If they find anything else, it is not a reason to push copyright infringment charges against anytone else. I don't think they even could do it with coincidental discovery related to other case. See, copyright infringiment atleast here in Finland is not a felony, but a "Asianomistajarikos" (something in which the plaintiff must make a specific accusation and an officially request an investigation against some entity).
Thus, to get tracker statistics from piratebay, the plaintiff should request an investigation, investigators should have suspicion that TPB is holding relevant records against the offender, ask for subpoena and then get the records from TPB. I don't think they could get a warrant to confiscate the servers for such purpose anyway. Unless TPB was to refuse to surrender the records.
PS. IANAL, but interested in the law, especially "Pakkotoimilaki". (Law which mandates processes for arresting, house/person searches, fingerprinting, DNA filing, confiscation and so on.)
I have never owned a console. I used to play a lot of c-64 games when I was a kid. I used to play some EverQuest. I used to be "good" at FPS when DN3D&Q1 was da shit. I hang around in some MUD's and play nethack ocassionally. Every now and then I might pirate an interesting looking game and abandon it within hours after installing.
Now I am seriously considering buying Wii if they have a good Golf simulator! Even better if they have some drum-playing simulator with two controllers. (To teach my kid)
Please apply the occams razor. You are just randomly jumbling shit to make a meaning out of nothing. Bet you can somehow calculate 666 out of the name of Madonna or nSync.

No. And I'd be the first to suggest gutting people like you for fresh organs for those more worthy of having them.
