Find stuff you like and copy it. If you like the buttons from Digg, save them to your hard drive and learn how to make a button that looks just like it. It's the same in the real art world. If you are learning to draw or paint people, you start by copying the masters (well, you don't start, but you know what I mean). Once you understand how people who are already good make what they make, you should then be able to start adding your own style into what you create. A good place to start is probably the CSS Zen Garden, just because the graphics and layout are all that changes from page to page. Find a design you like and duplicate it from scratch. Rinse and repeat until you feel that you could make your own. Or, there's also the possibility of making a great deal of money just copying other people's designs.;) But, that's not my suggestion.
Sadly, I really have to say that any review of a service from 6 years ago isn't really valid. Sprint may still suck, but it has nothing to do with them sucking back in 2000.
"how to store digital files so future generations can access them"
Quite simply, you don't store them in one format. Just move everything every 10 years or so. In fact, with Moore's Law and all, you will probably be able to store everything you had before in 1 of whatever is new 10 years later. Hire some part timers to move it or something. It's not a hard problem. It's just an inconvenient one.
So, since they did this, isn't the obvious thing to do to sue Verizon for transmitting something bad that "hurts" you? They are no longer protected now, yes?
Though, not particularly legal, there are sheet music torrent sites out there. I don't really want to name them, obviously, but if you do some research you can find them.
So, I don't mind the add-ons. I think it's totally awesome to be able to expand the game... but Lumines does it in such an underhanded way that I will not pay any more money for that game.
A) First like all other live games, they say many times, "Pay to Unlock the full game!" all over the place.
B) When you do, there is no indication that any of the other modes are optional. You don't actually discover it till after you've played the first level or two and the screen pops up and says, "HAHA, you suck! Give us more money, fool!"
What they should have done is have the options listed as Main Game and Download Content. As you download the content, it adds items to the menu. Perhaps a "Test Downloadable Content" section or something for the try before you buy action. It's not what their doing, it's how sneaky and evil they do it.
Sadly, that cache is all that I could find of the article, but they have been splicing meat into fruit for a while. At least since 2003. More recently, I heard about them just growing it in sheets, which is probably an easier idea. Meat without animals will be here quite soon. It'll be great. Save the rain forest, ground water, whatever morality may be involed... I mean, it solves a ton of problems, and in the case of animal poop a number of millions of tons.
The article doesn't say if these will be the Sega CD versions or no? Although the Sega CD was a terrible flop and what not, it did make better versions of the genesis games.
I wonder if PAX will pickup where E3 dies off. It is growing with every year and they seem to be getting more and more insider demos, displays and the lot. Perhaps the Gencon/ComicCon of video games will no longer be E3, but will turn to PAX instead to fill the fanboy urge.
I have to put my money on Wing Commander 3. When Hobbes betrays you and you see the death scene for Angel... man... I've never been so engulfed by both sadness and rage by fictional characters.
I've heard a lot of people have given up on buying the PS3 for many reasons. Does anyone care about the PS3 still? Is anyone on Slashdot still excited about its launch? I'm actually curious if someone here, at the least, is all hyped to pick one up still.
Actually, I predict that online distribution will be the next media. People will just use video on demand from their cable company, or over the net with something like media center. The next big thing may be no disc at all.
It's like saying there is no creativity with the movie industry. Sure, there are a few big players that hedge their bets with the big sales and big profits. The video game market is now hitting that split. The big guys are soon going to hire Michael Bay to direct the next Halo. But the small fish will still put out the innovation. It's not going to die, it's just going to split.
Well, you are missing the market here. The name is "TripleHead2Go". It's for the workstation laptop that can't take SLI. They aren't trying to compete with the SLI market.

Fuzzy OCR for Spam Assassin. It does a pretty great job on it.

There is a plugin for Spamassassin called Fuzzy OCR. It's false positive rate is pretty low and I haven't seen image spam for weeks.

Actually, I think its more because that is what everyone has.
As an example, Flash can do above and beyond that of HTML and JavaScript, and people use it because everyone has it.
Playing to the largest audience, not tradition, is why we stick to our guns, as it were.

People in the public eye don't get applied to the same standards as private citizens.
They can grow meat without the cow, and have been able to for some time.

As it's been said, Apple is a hardware company first and foremost. They don't want you running OSX on anything but an Apple box.

No, really... no one has to say it. I promise. It can not be said. We'll all be fine.
Dead or Alive 4 is pretty brutal about this. It's very difficult to win by doing the same move or strategy over and over again.
So, how much warrentless wiretapping and patriot act powers did it take to monitor a chat room?
Hmm...yeah.. that's what I thought.

That's 600 terabytes of sitting, waiting for downloads to complete instead of using the system. That dashboard upgrade better show up pretty soon.
AVG has a enterprise version that's much cheaper than norton. You should check it out.

Just to let you know, Blockbuster does the same limiting.
