Peanut butter, eh? I'll have to try that one. You could also try toothpaste and a cotton swab. I use that to buff scratches out of watch faces. For those really deep scratches, try the *finest* steel wool you can find, then follow up with a round of toothpaste buffing.
Wow, this guy really DOES have Apple pegged... I mean, at first it was funny, but now it's just creepy...
This is the best:
"Nerd porn threads appear in the Mac forums. Some lunatic with too much time and money on his hands disassembles the new device down to the bare, soldered components and posts pictures."
You're confused. This mutation would not give any one subgroup of the species a particular advantage over any other. 'Advantage' in evolutionary terms basically means 'reproduction'. While it would be *nice* if we could grow back organs/limbs, it is not necessary for propagation of the species.
Change its policy! You wouldn't type "... might have to change it is 99 cents per song policy."
Your fighting a loosing battle. Its impossible to win when most of Slashdot doesnt' even have a basic grasp of english to good. Chose you're battles wisely...
Or I should say the Midnight Ass Spelunker. YOu wake up in the middle of the night and strapped to your backside is an automated assfucker. You have to put in your credit card information to get it to stop.
Of course if you do something yourself, it may be "free" but the work you put into it does have intrinsic value. If you were not willing to exert the effort then you would have to "pay" someone to do it for you.
I don't pay for Firefox. There are no conditions attached to its use. I did not pay for this, yet I use it freely.
So you do not find worth 50 bucks? Then don't go to the movies then. Nobody is forcing you but I have ask you, when did people stop viewing movies as a "luxury" item and begin equating it with commodities? Art is not a commodity item.
Absolutely not worth 50 bucks. Movie studios wonder why movie revenue is down...Many people have large TVs with decent audio. Why pay 50 bucks to see that when you can see it in your own home - without people talking over the movie? Art is a commodity item - this is why people pay large sums of money to have 'the only one'. See 'Picasso'. You ask 'when did people stop viewing movies as a luxury item'? Do you *live* in North America? Movies are consumables.
You don't have a sign anything in order to enter into a sales "contract". A contract requires an exchange of goods for consideration. When you buy something, you are agreeing to the "terms of sale".
If you do not agree to the terms of sale, don't buy it. Otherwise, you may be found to be in breach of contract.
If I change my mind later, I can return the product. There are consumer protection laws that address this.
People who buy pieces of art cannot do anything they wish with it. You purchase the rendering of the art object, not the rights to reproduction.
Bullshit. If I purchase a Picasso, I can burn it, sell it, copy it or frame it. Hell, I can sell prints of it if I like. It is mine. I bought it.
Note: My views may be slightly skewed, but they are mine. Discourse is good.
400 dollars for an OS?
600 dollars for an Office Suite(tm)
20 dollars for a music CD?
25 dollars for a DVD?
>50 dollars for myself and my spouse to see a movie? (parking, movie, munchies) Fuck that.
When the price of such things becomes reasonable, people will slow down on pirating these items. 15 bucks to see a movie? C'mon. I'm not advocating piracy, but surely you can't in good conscience slam people for 'living in their parent's basement' because they pirate shitty software, or shitty movies. Make a decent product, at a fair price and people will pay.
Oh, and btw, unless I *sign* something in *ink* I have agreed to *nothing*.
With the minority government here, it's unlikely that the parties even agree to agree on lunch breaks. They had a hard enough time passing the budget (underhanded tricks aside)...never mind anything else. Besides, why would they pass a law to limit caching when 'robots.txt' can accomplish the same thing?
This is precisely why I choose Nvidia hardware - and I always will. Nvidia took the time to ensure that I can have accelerated graphics on my choice of OS, so I will reward them with my pocketbook. You should do the same.
Slashdot Mirror
Will the game ship with a Linux installer? If not, will an installer be made available?
Don't worry...they'll repost it next week with fresh links. You should know better (low UID).
POSIX?
Money. Things cost more now. That, and you don't feel the need to beat the Russians. Americans already know they have the biggest penis.
You have no problems pimping ads and subscriptions on /., but you won't link to the store of the oldest linux distro out there.

Nerd Porn! A new meme is born!
They're scratched, btw. In case you were wondering.
Indeed. Reaching a human...from TFA. This should tell you something.
Do you design web pages too? Lots of flash please.
Burn Karma, burn!

cudos to you.
When I loaded the page all I saw was the flashblock icon all over the screen.
Why?
I can't wait for your reply...
What if there is no GUI? Not all servers have a 'Start' button...
Learn to do things without pretty GUIs. That's the best way to learn. Learn how your system works. LFS is good, but overkill, IMHO.

for the GNAA!!! those fuckers! Editors need to learn the distinction between loose and lose.
I claim this post for the GNAA. Those faggots.
