I know that one person, who is a cop in Maryland (state or county, I'm not sure) exhibited some sociopathic tendencies growing up. The fact that he's allowed to carry a gun at the behest of the state is one of the singular facts that has me distrust any law enforcement until they've shown a reason to give that to them.
(Yep, this now cop was the bully. I was the punching bag.)
Given the disturbing level of nerd arrogance on slashdot, I'm amazed that your opinion wasn't automatically dismissed and modded down while 'people' questioned your parentage, the sexual practice of your mother, and your sexual orientation while simultaneously threatening bodily harm and various forced sexual acts on you due not only to having a Facebook account, and not only having a preferred method of access, but for committing that most cardinal of Slashdot sins: owning an iPhone.
There are no barriers to entry. Anyone can create an Android Touch and open a marketplace.
If the FTC (not the FCC as stated in the summary, sigh) really does spend any kind of money investigating Apple's 'abusive' market position, perhaps the teabaggers and libertarians are right about government's overreach.
This could be glossing over quite a bit of useful work for Oracles customers.
You are glossing over the point of the article. 1. Redhat writes lots of great Linux stuff that make the kernel better (11.6% of the kernel). 2. Oracle passes it off as their own. (They only contribute 1.3%, less that 1/10 that of Red Hat).
Cry me a river. That's what happens when you base your company on OSS. This isn't a surprise. At all. People warned of this at least a decade ago.
But how do we know that the poster who asked for a link was incompetent? Why is that the first assumption? Why not look at it as a sincere request for help? Why not drop the snarky bomb AND the link? Or leave the snark behind. What purpose does it serve?
You have entirely ignored that shipping companies attempt to maximize loads, either by volume or by weight. Except in corner cases that do not apply in the general shipping of books and CDs from Amazon, you will not find situations such as you describe.
The portion you have bolded is called a 'marginal cost'.
Interesting story, but you need a correction: the chemicals in cat litter are not to give your cat better breath, it is to give your dog better breath.

That town was featured more than once in stories in Car and Driver magazine in the 90's. Quite a little racket they had going.
They can re-use the chatroulette genitalia detection algorithms, with some touch sensors added, to prevent that dangerous use, perhaps?
Not if they want to sell to the slashdot crowd.
Difference is that twitter doesn't hang it's boobs in my face when she's washing my hair.

Thank God for strong copyright laws that will help motivate JRR Tolkien to continue his writing career long into the future.
The idea that I even need iTunes is an afront.
It should be completely unecessary and totally optional.
Kinda like your commentary in any Apple article?
Because you still occasionally use it. If you honestly never use it, uninstall it. Duh.
Wish I could be paid that much to fail like that.
Flash sucks even on real computers, I don't get why people get so worked up about this. Flash can die in a fire. A *poo* fire.
A burning meth-lab/trailer home would have fit in more with your subject line.
It's hard to tell the morons and the trolls apart when the anti-Apple rants get started.
FCC? At least Blutarsky had a point when he referenced the German bombing of Pearl Harbor.

IIRC, Win 95 OSR2 shipped with USB support.
And the crickets chirped.

And the printer also prints image side down.
You're holding it wrong.
But how do we know that the poster who asked for a link was incompetent? Why is that the first assumption? Why not look at it as a sincere request for help? Why not drop the snarky bomb AND the link? Or leave the snark behind. What purpose does it serve?
The haughty arrogance knows no limitations in the OSS community.
What interests? Filmmaking and... young children?
I didn't know Roman Polanski read Slashdot.
Dude, seriously, year of the linux desktop yet?
Hrm, wonder why that is...
I really hope there is no confusion as to why the Nick Burns character on SNL resonated with so many viewers.
Dear lord, this many replies, and only one person has the decency to supply a link?
Kudos to you sir.
