We should definitely pass asinine legislation to moderate this as quickly as possible. Kids are impressionable and their parents certainly can't be held responsible for what they buy for them.
The only thing I would have to say in seriousness about this is design whatever you want, but expect some flack no matter what you do. Good taste is like yellow speed limit signs, you can ignore them, but it's not always the best idea.
I wonder if his penis has been enlarged, his mortgage shrunk and if he earned his masters overnight too!? Everyone should sign up his nightclub for all kinds of mailing lists, might I recommend Viagra, Rogaine, mortgage brokering firms... and I wonder if he's on the do not call list...
Quite right, my sister has an original Space Invaders arcade machine at her office and my nephew won't get off the thing when he goes to work with her. These kids must be the same ones who buy every one of those moronic extreme sports games.
I'm reminded of a quote I heard on Dr. Katz once (I believe the guest was Jon Stewart), "Wow, a futon, great! During the day it's an uncomfortable couch and at night, it's an even more uncomfortable bed!" Why make things crappier, just to put them together?
You like new opportunities, but often get screwed over by them. Your inability to make the weakest remote connection to your server threatens your job and your gasoline budget this week.
...and I can recognize evil as well as the next person, but give the guy a break. There might be very evil intentions to this, but he's at least claiming a step in the right direction. He stands to benefit if he can market stuff to geeks who have despised his organization for a long time and we all *might* benefit. Just, give him some slack for *one* article.
since a few people are chiming in with this, is an irrational fear of the police. Even when I'm not doing anything wrong, I feel like they're going to run me over or open fire. I really need to take care of some trees in the backyard, but I'm gonna catch a bullet if I turn on that chainsaw.
I've seen this a couple times before, but Google seems to come up with nothing useful for it. It doesn't help that every crappy musician who has made a tape sells it out of their crappy van or that so many scientist have the old prussion "van der something" in their names. But perhaps it's crappy musicicans and these van der scientists who really control the highspeed data transfer.
I'm all for new age stuff and I'm a big fan of meditation, but I think this says it all right here: Enjoy a preview of The Journey to Wild Divine, a mythical and magical adventure amidst towering palaces, sacred temples, flowing landscapes and sumptuous gardens
People who use the word sumptuous need to a football to the groin.
It appears that your boxers are out of date, there exists a security hole that could allow your wang to show. A patch exists that could repair them, would you like to install it?
Tire company Michelin makes a deal with Acme Granite Rectangle Inc.! Michelin has been ignoring the granite-loving demographic of other companies and plans to one day make a rectangular tire made of the material that will sweep the market.
My personal belief on this is that when I was a college student (the vast bulk of my music downloading), I was too poor to buy CD's anyway. It didn't stop me from buying CD's, because I wasn't going to in the first place, it just helped me learn more about music. Now that I have money, I would gladly pay a reasonable price to support the artists I like, but the RIAA had to be jerks about it and come out to prosecute people who're in the same boat I was. Or even worse boat for that matter, freakin' 12 year old girls in the projects who need $2000 a lot more than Justin F'in Timberlake!
but all these surveys do is give people false impressions of worth. You could glean from this thing that you should be making 70k with a bachelors degree or that being a woman with the same experience as I have you're worth 10k more than I am.
A young woman at my last job got fired because she went in to demand higher pay after she got her masters in accordance with one of these surveys. She worked for the company for the whole time and they paid for her education, but she decided to hop up the ladder and start emailing stats like this to the VP's. I mean really, what loaded sysadmin women fill these things out and do they need a developer and/or boyfriend!?!
This would be laugh out loud hilarious if it weren't so horribly tragic... And in further news, the RIAA and SCO have teamed up to kick a 6 year old's puppy. Film at 11!
He's nine years old, bright-eyed and hungry to learn. Meet Linux, or a human embodiment of the computer operating system, in a new television commercial by IBM.

I thought everything that we've heard said that the G5 was good in parallel and was generally mediocre for integer performance...
Also the article has been written in passive voice. This has been known to drive me nuts.
As in the one that gets me really excited about Linux: Windows Update
11. Buy a tinfoil hat and tell the little alien on your shoulder to get one too.
May cause itchiness, rashes, nausea, bloating... Side effects also common in use of the sugar wave. Use only as directed.
Why don't they try to get the weather right before they make the way we get it smaller?

Okay, you may mod me down now.

Truly a concept that has crossed every 't' and dotted every slash. Mirror anyone?
