Johansen could end up selling a lot of hardware for Apple.
How's that? If Apple doesn't sell hardware they don't make money. If they don't make money from the hardware they won't be selling content. They only offer the content to profit from their own hardware. Am i missing something?
For the record, this is a turning point in slashdot history. I'll forever remember where I was when I first saw those words in a slashdot comment. (Which of course is at work, sitting through a boring meeting.)
So because he hasn't uncovered any corruption by the Democracts his facts and statistics are to be ignored? You don't deserve to have your vote accurately counted. Good luck with your future fascist government.
I've heard this as an argument against accurate exit polls. Yet I've never seen any evidence or explanation as to why this might be true. Do you have any facts to back this up?
I agree. But there is a way to show future administrations that they need to take these issues seriously. Impeach our President, Vice-President, and Secretary of State. If we kick our current President out of office for his impeachable offenses future administrations will know they can't get away with the same arrogance.
I've been here for years and I don't recall slashdot claiming moral superiority to anything. Many who post comments do, but not/. proper. Of course if you know of any examples feel free to correct me.
Many web site owners already know that it's usually considered bad practice to add advertising to a well established site. People who blog about blogging usually tell people to put adsense up right away to a new site rather than add it later. Regular visitors seem to take the later addition of advertising as a bit of an insult. But they're more inclined to accept the site with its advertising features present from the start. Any significantly intrusive changes to a site will cause problems. Even more so if it's purely done for profit.
Wha? Unix didn't enter the desktop market until after Microsoft was dominant. And Unix (plus its Linux form) hasn't lost to Microsoft in the server market. Unix and Linux weren't created as Microsoft combatants. So I don't understand your comment at all.
Remember when renaming french fries in the cafeteria was more important than debating war? I don't think it's an issue of fundamentalists being in control. It's career politicians who care most about their image (and yet have no concept of what the people really think) that are the problem. When the democrats are in control they're only slightly better.
Are you serious? Every casino I've ever been in posts the odds at every game except poker (which would be impossible anyway). It's quite clear that your chances of winning are small and they're stated quite specifically. Slots are among the most popular "games" at casinos and the odds for every combination are laid right out there for you. I've never met a single person who thought they had a good statistical chance of winning at a casino. The rush people get is from winning when they know the odds of it happening are so slim!
And what makes you consider gambling at a casino a con? All of the rules of every game are quite clear. You can read books about them. The casino tells you exactly how much they get to keep at each game.

Our politicians are a powerful domestic force.
the US is combating an externally commanded islamo-fascist terror insurgency.
There's no such thing as an islamo-fascist. Good job hinting a worldwide religion is similar to an eastern European form of government from the mid 20th century. Look up fascism and you'll find these terrorists are not similar at all.
They are not the same.
So a quote can't apply to more than one context? How obtuse. These terrorists are a political force. US politicians are a political force. The quotes can apply to any entities which act to curtail our rights or liberties. Therefore they apply to both.
Indeed it is a love of liberty that inspires citizens to give the federal government the powerful tools they need to wipe it out completely.
It's the love of liberty that inspires people to take away that liberty? It's laughable to think that these laws will be the tools which wipe out all terrorism. As long as there is strong hatred there will be terrorism. You can kill everyone who hates us, but that won't prevent more from hating us tomorrow.
Call your representative in the House (or check their web site) and find out how he/she voted. If s/he voted for the bill make sure to vote for another candidate if the seat is up for election in Nov.
Normally I wouldn't say to vote for or against a candidate based on only one issue. But this bill is unconstitutional and anyone who voted for it is disregarding our rights and the constitution itself and is therefore unfit as a representative. Please vote accordingly.
Items transported overseas often have tarrifs. So the government still gets their cut even though you don't see a tax. Besides, the US economy would collapse as it stands now if the government were to ban all international trade.
Initially I thought the same thing. But it turns out attendance at live poker in casinos as at an all time high. Plus a lot more people are entering live tournaments after they get into gambling online. The big online gamblings sites let you win entry to live tournaments and often have meetups at casinos. I think casinos already see the benefit to their bottom line.
I doubt the proposed ban of online gambling has anything to do with bots. I'm sure it has more to do with collecting money. It's very hard (or impossible) to tax.

It's not like LiveJournal is strapping their users to chairs and tattooing advertisement on their foreheads.
What's your email address? We'd like to discuss this idea with you further.
Thanks.

Sorry to break it to you, but you're a hippie, not a geek.
Thanks. You just lowered my IQ. I wish I didn't click on those links.

the administration 'looks forward to working with Congress to strengthen the bill as it moves through the legislative process.'"
Never mind that the President is merely the enforcer of laws and not a legislator.
Hopefully this will get tested in court in the next few years if it does become law. I don't see how a judge can not find it unconstitutional.
Actually, they're selling them for 98.75 cents through the Zune Marketplace. 98.75 is technically lower than 99.

The US is a liberal democracy. It's also a federal republic. Read up on it and get over it.
