You'll be hard-pressed to find a cell phone, cordless phone, or pager model that isn't missing a battery door after a drop or two (or a remote control, for that matter.) Broken pieces make the door not stay on. One AT&T cordless phone my dad had was told by the AT&T phone rep that that happened to everybody for that particular model.
Old BBS's used to let people contribute money and become "patrons". Some had varying titles depending on how much you contributed.
They could do that here, but allow, say, access to inline images (perhaps "registered" as used in a.sig), other HTML, whatever. The sky would be the limit, many things not even thought of yet.

Ads bother me a lot more when I'm surfing with a modem than with cable modem. I don't see what the big deal is if you have high speed access. Yes, those pop-unders and pop-asides and whatnot are irritating, but normal banner ads aren't a problem.

Given that the average high-karma person *might* be of higher intelligence, therefore ads targetted to them would sell for more to ad companies, Slashdot could sell general "hoi polloi" ads and "special" ads with BMW, much like stock market "ads" on This Week on Wall Street and Masterpiece Theatre.

Anyhoo, this is precisely the point of moderation -- if many people find something funny, it's probably funny to many others. It doesn't rely on the judgement of one but of many.
Oh, and please add a user option to check as a default the "No Score +1 Bonus" box.
This applies to all types of technology and areas of life. That's why this guy kicks ass, and why people have such a hard time understanding it. Do you want people passing draconian laws about the looming HD limit in 3 years -- OMFG we have to do something? Nahh, that would be stupid, as it is for environmental problems, real or otherwise. Relax, open your minds, and realize the Truth.

I can confirm that in Netscape 6, the minus sign is missing (the 173 decimal one). Saving the page, opening it in WordPad (which shows it as -), and copying and pasting such a minus sign into Character Map shows it is a minus, but a different one (173) from the normal one.
Webdings shows it as a little bomb burst, BTW.

Nope! They traded the formula for transparent aluminum for a bunch of giant, thick Plexiglas panes. They did use the Plexiglas for the tank walls in the baby warbird. "It'll take years to develop..." although how he could see it would be transparent by looking at a rotating molecule I don't know...

2. There is precedence for him using contractions prior to that in normal speech.
3. He could be aping a quote, in which case he uses contractions, or deliberately making a funny.
