If it's fixed, launch it. Why worry about future concerns? There won't be anymore Space Shuttle.
This is the last flight for the Discovery shuttle but there's still two other launches. One for each of the other shuttles. But I believe they use a new tank for each launch so I'm not sure where the future concerns are coming from.
I work at helpdesk for a smallish technical college. We have about 15-20 total in the IT office and our CIO buys us these nice dress shirts with the college logo and "Information Technology" above the pocket. His dress code for us is no jeans and look professional. We can choose to wear a tie or even our own shirts. But we also regularly get comments from other people about how nice our shirts look and how professional it makes our office look when we show up to a meeting in similar styled dress shirts. On days when there's a lot of dirty work involved we can come in with what's appropriate but overall I think the shirts add to the job instead of being an annoyance.
There's a vast difference between our reaction to accidental deaths and intentional deaths. 9/11 was a lot of intentional deaths in a single location by some crazed lunatics. Car accidents are definitely regrettable but aren't considered murder because in the end they are just accidents.
oooo... I remember doing that mission over and over. I thought it was dropping some supplies to some rebels at some secret airstrip in the mideast somewhere. On the way back you might get some fighters that show up but the gun took them out pretty easily. The copy protection on that game was pretty nice though. After flipping throught the book enough you memorized the outlines of all the planes. Copy protection that taught you something... those were the good ole days.:P
Direct quote from my mom: "It's like poking needles into your head!" This was only after fastforwarding through about half of it. If you haven't downloaded it yet, don't worry.... you're not missing ANYTHING! It's almost nausiating.
"Throughout the entire process, Wozniak said the encryption key is controlled in a central location through a secure transmission. Because the wOz Platform and the wOzNet network are proprietary, he said it is not open to Wi-Fi spoofing or password sniffing."
proprietary != secure from sniffing
I wonder if it's based on the current wireless encryption or if it's something completely new.

Am I the only one that read it as Jon Stewart and then spent a few minutes trying to figure out the joke on the page?

This brings to mind a speech by Michael Crichton about how environmentalism has become a religion. He brings up some interesting points. http://www.crichton-official.com/speeches/speeches _quote05.html
It's because Google is blocking people in Germany from accessing the videos. I haven't seen a good explanation for this practice either.
This link was already part of the article here http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/08/22/ 0615249&tid=211 Why it becomes another article is anyones guess.

woo hoo.... just passed 12,000 in the queue. What song is this anyways?
Suprnova release in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
That's exactly what I was thinking of! Very good series too. Can't wait for them to finish writing it.

Socialism has been tried many times and it just doesn't work.
Do these editors even read their own news site? Maybe there needs to be a reader approval process after an editor submits a story.

Wow... 3 Apple headlines in a row. Is that a record?

We, the real Fallout fans, would like Bethesda to make Fallout 3 properly, i.e keep the key elements such as:
-isometric view
-Turnbased combat
-the S.P.E.C.I.A.L system
and NOT make Fallout 3 into an FPS released on consoles.
Sincerely,

Yeah, never post your server address either. Looks like it's already down with only 1 comment!
True... but didn't the outlawing of computers within the story prevent people from creating remote detonators like this?
