Blah blah blah, why don't you just admit you're a theiving criminal who doesn't want to pay for anything instead of coming up with lame excuses to justify your way of thinking?
You would be a very rich man if you let people stick coal up your ass cause as tight as yours is there would be diamonds in the rough in just a few minutes!
The internet existed long before any world wide web or web browser so I don't know why this is such a big problem for Slashdot geeks. Myself I use Mozilla for 99% of my web browsing but I can understand why a web dev would only want to develop for the ONE BROWSER THAT OVER 95% OF THE COMPUTER USING POPULATION USES.
Its kind of hard to use all of the features of MS Outlook without Exchange as the email server. Office collaboration is what businesspeople want. Why is that so hard to accept?
A recession is not counted on how many jobs are created but by the rate of GDP growth (or lack thereof). By that standard we've been in a slow jobless recovery since 2001.
Are you feeling sick? That was pretty low on the elitist scale. Is there any way you could try to be a bit more elitist? We all know you can do it and are pulling together in support of you! Thanks!
So the taxes the company pays to the government, that doesn't cover what it owes the country huh? Maybe they should be allowed to stop paying them then if they seem to not count for anything.
If prevented from bringing HB-1 workers here, the companies will simply reduce their workforce here and setup shop and expand in whatever foreign country is the cheapest.
Communities don't support companies. Consumers trade their money for a good or service from a company. After that the transaction is done. There is no further obligation from either party past that point. This whole line of reasoning that the company then still owes you something really reeks of communist ethos.
If such a mistake were encountered by me I wouldn't hold any ill feelings towards the company in question. Thats because I understand that companies have to be able to make a profit in order to sell me the things I want. I'm not some immature person who wants a $1000 object for $10. Thats obviously not the right price and only someone completely without dignity would bitch about not being able to rob the company blind.
Of course I also realize that I am in the minority on this and that the unwashed masses will foam at the mouth like rabid dogs outraged that they were unable to "stick it to the man".
Oh really? There are already burger flipping robots around. Its just most fastfood managers don't know enough about them to order them yet. What happens when you can't even get a job as a burger flipper? Should we introduce legislation against bots then?
The number of people needed per factory decreases every year that goes by. Why is it so hard for you to see that this is where we are headed?

"Seriously, work that involves using your brain shouldnt be valued at the same value as collecting garbage or pushing paper... or doing grunt work in general... The hours programmers put in now-adays to finish projects is discusting and worthy of far more compensation."
The market decides how much you will get paid. If you think you are better than someone because your job involves sitting on your ass all day and typing well too damn bad. Its all about the amount of value your labor provides. If punching out code is worth less than picking up garbage or fixing someone's plumbing, then so be it! You just need to get over yourself.

German companies are outsourcing too. All of Western Europe is. AND Germany has higher rates of unemployment than the US does. So what was so good about Germany again?
What are you going to do when the field of robotics advances and jobs don't even need to be outsourced anymore because huge warehouses full of robots are now doing all the jobs. Should we outlaw the usage of robots then?

Since MS makes the browser that 95% of the people use then MS also sets the standards, not the W3C.

I wasn't being sarcastic or trying to be funny.
They are not equivalents. Why should people have to settle for second rate alternatives when they can just have the real thing?

Is there any reason why this website chose to create a completely unusuable download protocol? WTF is magnet?
Unions have served their purpose and achieved their goals. Its now time for us all to move on past them.

We are the Americans.
You will be assimilated.
Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own.
Your culture will adapt to service us.
Resistance is futile. Globalization is unstoppable.

Do you really think that Slashdot geeks have enough combined wealth to make even the slightest difference?

A page's relevance is deteremined by how many pages are linked to it as well.
Now think of this recursively and you get how Google works.
Thanks to CEO Terry Semel, Yahoo is actually making money again. So in what way did they over-reach?
