How many times have a friend visited your house when you weren't home? I would think that those things have happend time and time again and it haven't wrecked your life. But missing out on a single email - Ohmigod!!!
Difference is, if I call you and you don't pick up, I know you didn't pick up, and if it's important I can call your mobile, or leave a message, or call back later. If I email you and your popfilter plonks it, I'll never know.
I propose a solution:
1. Spam filters send a "sorry, your message got plonked" message back to the poster.
2. Add some sort of "x-no-bounce" header so we don't start a bounce chain.
3. Everybody's spam filters simply throw out "your message bounced" messages from addresses you haven't sent anything to in the last 48 hours.
It'd never happen dude... Instead you'd have to pay full new game price, and you'd get some sort of "greatest hits collection" of a few games they think you'll want, plus a bunch of shitty ones they know you don't, so they can justify charging full price.
Hey, we're not responsible for Mel Gibson, alright? He was born american, and he's american now. He just trained here.... Even Russell Crowe was born in unzud, but he lives here.
That's the whole point.... It's not our problem. Physical scarcity of music is over. Physical distribution of music is in its death throws. Either the RIAA/Record labels reevaluate their business model, or they fall by the wayside... It's the way it should be, and the way we want it.
Just thought I'd interject, and throw in my 2 cents: limp bizkit isn't all that overproduced, I've seen them live and they're one of the best sounding live acts I've seen- no match for metallica, but who is?
I disagree... I think that in about 5 - 15 years gaming will be ready to be a spectator sport, when the games are more than 2-32 people running around shooting each other with railguns... When there's more going on, and it becomes about teams people can barrack for, with unique characters in a virtual world (not just models with skin changes), so there's a (virtual) hero to watch, and not some nerd who's got too much spare time.
But it won't never be as popular as real sports for a very long time, because most people aren't nerds, and they'd rather see somebody like themselves succeed than the guy with glasses they remember from school.
No, the REAL issue is memory space. 32 bit just won't cut it anymore for large database servers and the like, regardless of the movement for clustering.

It's nerd for a manager who doesn't know shit and doesn't actually contribute to anything save his own career.

Well it'd sure help.

Two doors do not a coupe make. A coupe has no B-pillar, a civic does, hence it's a two-door sedan.
Oh and btw, it's usually the coupes that have clear tails, not hatchbacks.
Oh and btw yourself ricer, honda didn't make a civic coupe. It's a two-door sedan.

Don't worry, all the starwars films open here (au,nz) before you guys too since they open on the same date and we're like 18hrs ahead :)
The short of it is, the more google pisses these people off, the better job they're doing, and the more we luuuuuurve them :)

I am going to try the opposite strategy and write a book for a large illiterate audience.
Erm I think you've been beaten to it, it was called The Phantom Menace.
But what exactly do they need to do?

Get it css compliant, and let subscribers create/swap/rate/choose their own stylesheet... I'd subscribe for that.
Only a mac user would compare Jobbs to the son of god, that's for sure.
what's a 15 year old doing on the internet without parental supervision
Do you think that by the time we were 15, any of our parents had a chance at supervising what we did online, nanny-software or not?
Yeah good idea! If only everybody would just leech instead of sharing! That'll stick it to the RIAA!

How would you identify a person from Japan as being from Japan if you couldn't use the words Japan, Asia, Orient, or other similar words?
The japanese? Those Sandle-wearing goldfish tenders?
