But when is the last time your hard drive has been through the wash and still worked afterwards? My hard drive sits inside my portable computer and I usually notice it when it ends up with the dirty laundry... I even notice my iPod, so that's not an issue either..
Otherwise, I guess you are stuck with java and some inferior development suite...such as eclipse, is a very good free development environment for Java. And it runs on any platform that runs java... and as it's free, you can use your free time to get better at developing.;-)
You have described an IBM Model-M keyboard. They do not come with new computers though, but will last you 3 or 4 computers, if you get hold of one. (Which is not that hard on eBay)
Lost sales over YOUR counter means that ultimately, you woun't be needed, but you know that. Anywah, lyrics sites, or simply Google, are a great tool for finding then name of the song or album you want. Not everybody has come to that conclusion, so it's good that you can help people in their search for that song they can't get out of their head. The industry need to realize, that the there will always be fans transscribing the lyrics.. hell, lyrics are even easier to find than the actual song.
I still prefer to buy CD's and rip them in whatever quality I want... saves me the hazle of having to make a backup too. "your kind" is still needed, so no "boo" to you for your employment:-)
Very funny, especially the sarcasm;-) (I may have visited Sheffield on too many semi-rainy days to be totally un-biased about British weather)
The links on the other hand are quite interesting and I must admit that producing electricity for your own home seems "bigger" in Britan than in Denmark (just as rainy and foggy) maybe because there more of a Government support...
ultra-pure silver ribbon conductor..the rest of the cabeling in my home (or on my street) is not made from this material, so I guess that I don't need this one..
Aren't IP addresses assigned on an as-needed basis?.. and if this is the case, why does Swaziland and Uruguay need 16.4 amd 12.5 ip adresses per capita?
(as refered in another of my posts under this grand-parent)
I didn't even know they had computers in Uruguay and have never heard about Swaziland!
.. or that British Bank that stopped using a pig as their hallmark piggy bank for kids, because muslims don't eat pork.... or The Three Little Pigs being banned from British schools for the same reason..
we get that USA uses 4.5, UK 4.2, Japan 1.1 and China uses 0.0555 ip-adresses per capita, so they are not really the problem..
Swaziland has 18682461 ip-adresses and a population of 1138227 which is 16.4 per capita.. Uruguay has 42701418 ip-adresses and a population of 3415920 which is 12.5 per capita.. .. I don't understand.. maybe they've never heard about LAN's? (or something is seriously wrong with the ip address space)
True, but the large majority of iTunes/iPod/podcast users use the software without changing any settings. Thus, when a user suddely "stops" updating a subscribed podcast (especially on podiobooks who have tight control and individual RSS feeds for each user) the logfiles will tell that the user has downloaded the first 5-6 episodes without listening to anything. Furthermore, if and when the user continues to download episodes, either he has started listening or has manually made iTunes continue to download. I assume, that the RSS feed log will contain some identification of the fact that iTunes is used.
I know, that not everybody uses iTunes.. but, with 25 million iPods and 200 million iTunes application downloads, quite a bit of the userbase will use that combination..
iTunes is not supposed to update playcount when syncing an iPod manually. Apple philosofy; either you are helped all the way (auto) or not at all (manual)
True, but iTunes 4.9 at least, will stop downloading podcast after 5-6 episodes, if you don't listen to anything. Theese audiobooks are released one episode at a time. Fastest is one a day. Eventhough there might be 50 episodes, you can't download them all in one go, you have to wait. I figured I could start subscribing to 6 books and listen to them when they were finished... no go, I have to specifically tell iTunes to continue downloading after 5-6 episodes. This is both good and bad. I can see how logfiles can be analyzed to tell if people are actually listening or not. BUT.. why download if you don't intend to listen?
If we get certified as non-tobacco by our doctors, we get a break on premiums. wow!.. For how long do you have quit smoking to be certified non-smoker? I mean.. wow! Do you get a break on the premiums if your weight is within the so-called 'normal range'?

Denver voters OK marijuana measure.. This actually means, that the state, in Denver, will save some of those billions used on marijuana possession arrests and STILL keep the taxes on cigarettes.. clever.

solid state has uses.. as temporary storage in cellphones, digital cameras and mp3 players.
.. for that 25 giga pixel digital camera / DV camera that our cellphone will pack.

Storage capacity goes up, what you put on storage goes up in quality.
We need the 30 GB flash card in 5 years
At home, we will put those pictures on the 2Tera byte harddisk

But in the year 2005, really, where would that be?
Now, they probably have the input part of an iPod as well... (press "pause/play")
