One thing I've notice with most microsoft products is that they give them generic names. This makes it very hard to search on the web for their products. Is it a strategy?
Because men are scared-to-death, repulsed, deeply saddened (or some combination of the three) to contimplate the thought of their wives walking around sans breast. I'm not a psychologist, but I would think that the reason that breasts are so objectified sexually is that they are linked to a basic, nurturing comfort deep within our psyche very early in our lives. A woman unable to offer fullfill that role has somehow lost a significant porition of her humanity. Of course, when rationally considered that's utter BS. But not all husbands can fully let go of that fear.
Bollocks!
I think it's because in the current atmosphere it's politically incorrect to show concern for men.
How is this visa now different from the green card lottery? This has made my job searching really difficult in the US. No company wants to hire me because they cannot guarantee me the job even if I qualify.
On a related note: Did you know (according to my lawyer) that the cap does not apply to Indians and Chinese? This is another reason companies would rather hire from those two countries. My guess is that the US govt is trying to steal China and India's intellectual capital.
I few days ago I had the mispleasure of running into something called sealed[media].
It insisted on Adobe Reader 7.0. Not Adobe Professional 7.0 which I had installed, not Adobe Reader 8, which Adobe had on their website, not Adobe 6 Reader on my laptop.
You seem to have picked zimbabwe for no reason, but I do hope you realize that until fairly recently Zimbabwe was not third world (I lived there most of my live). When I was there there were linux clubs, mac clubs.
It has a lot of coders, but most have gone to South Africa and the UK as they are paid better wages. Heck, I am in the US (but not coding, thank goodness!).
Sony needs to separate its hardware and entertainment division. This has been the major cause of their lack of focus and therefore lack profitability. FTA it seems its competitors are only in hardware.
Maybe Stringer is (slowly) turning it into a pure hardware company.
One thing fascinating about the US elections is how results are announced as the election proceeds. I believe this has a larger effect on the elections than the technology. After all, why bet on a (clearly) losing horse?
I do not understand 64 bit as much as I would like. Here is where I get lost. I would have thought a 64 bit chip accesses 2^64 words which are 64 bits each. Why do they say it accesses 2^24 bytes only?

It's a very interesting how they managed to sneak in terrorists.
But I don't understand how counterfeit CDs and filesharing have to do with each other.

I hope sealed[media] gets eaten by a grue.
If you vote from home there is a risk that you might be voting at gunpoint. How do they take care of that?
Pretty soon, people in Zimbabwe will be coding

A bummer that Africa never gets a turn.
Why pander so much to women. Dn't they have their owm brains?
If they stay in their parents' basement? They have adapted to one room right?
What's wrong with being a socialist? I thought the US was a free country (at least in terms of political alliance).
Here are some interesting pictures of the storefronts

I think Velikovsky did this before (but badly?).
Maybe it's just that most slashdotters don't read articles, but I did read the article and it seems an environmental problem of some concern.

Left or right?
Daytime TV shows need a man's touch.
So maybe the paperless office will appear before the paperless toilet?
I saw no satellite imagey of Africa, and they clam to have the whole world?
Does Africa truly not count?
