I agree, but sooner or later some major adjustment will have to be made to keep our current system viable. The wealth distribution is getting completely out of balance. If the greedy keep taking more and more, then eventually there will be enough young people under-employed or out of work with nothing to lose. When the hopeless and desperate members of our society reach a critical mass something will give.
Seriously, what has happened to all the great discussions which defined Slashdot as a community of thought provoking and insightful people who were tech-savvy and in the know! This 7th grade banter is getting annoying!
Okay, something really strange just happened to me. First, I must say that I was not trying to look for porn! Just out out of curiosity, I typed sex.xxx into my chrome browser awesome bar and the sex.xxx URL went to my Dlink router login page! I tried it again and it went to my Dlink router login page again! I'm in totally in disbelieve! Can some please try this and see if they get the same result! Yes I have had something to drink, but I'm not imagining things!!!!!!!!!
Could it be that a lot of these websites are being created with content management systems by designers who think they are programmers? It's seems to me that most cites aren't handed-coded anymore. Am I wrong here?
I don't think any company can introduce a new service or product without being hit with a lawsuit! The only winners here are the lawyers who are makings lots of money at the expensive of the consumer as companies just pass on the costs. Seriously, we need some reforms -- now!
Wow, reading this article really points out how myopic Ballmer has become. He really can't see anything being successful outside of the MS-Windows world! Microsoft really needs new leadership!
I was trying to make it more efficient by getting rid of some of the unused cores, so I got a pair of scissors and pruned off a couple of those cores. I put the pruned, aero dynamic chip back in my machine and now it won't start up! On the plus side, the power savings are noticeable:)
Seriously, schools should not be expected to do the job of parents! Educational institutions are slowly becoming baby-setting institutions! Schools seem to be spending more time on discipline and keeping kids in school and less time on educational pursuits! Schools should not be held accountable for kids who fail to get up on time to get to school -- parents should! What are we teaching our kids? What will happen when they get a job? Is the employeer going to have to call the employee every morning? No wonder we are falling behind! Treating our kids like babys isn't going to help them achieve at school!
Very well said! The church and the modern Christians want their cake and eat it too! They want all the worldly goods and pleasures and at the same time want the promise of some heaven and forgiven from their "sin"!
I'm aware that "regardless" and "irregardless" means the same. I grew up hearing the word irregardless a lot so it has stuck with me. I will be more careful in the future;)
I do know that "irregardless" is used chiefly in nonstandard speech or casual writing and I was using it as such! I happen to like the word irregardless even though it hasn't been blessed by the word gods yet! Language is a living, breathing entity and it is continuously changing!
I wasn't distinguishing between physical and electronic books. It is the act of reading that is personal and intimate, irregardless of whether the text is printed on paper or delivered electronically.
It is extremely hard for our kids to even have an opportunity to learn to love books! They are exposed to so many competing media at such an early age that books get relegated to schools as something they use. I teach and every year it gets harder and harder to get kids to read the simplest of texts. It is very sad as books offer a very personal relationship and intimate relationship with characters that no other medium can provide.
Good point! As an iphone user, I often use wifi and AT&T does have a great wifi network. The iphone connects automatically to AT&t wifi networks so it's transparent to to user! AT&T wifi is free for iphone users! I think that need to be counted in the data usage, as it is part of the data plan.

Brilliant!

We are all victims of the monetary system -- It's time for a revolution!

This is so strange to me! Some kind of joke?

Yeah, my wife even printed the motions chart out!

It's faster than IE 9 on Linux and OS X!
I'd imagine that more developers would come forward and complain.
Very insightful! Best comment I've read in weeks!

can now be used with iphone, which qualifies as non-audio uses!

Does Opensolaris have something unique to offer than Linux doesn't?
