I want to be able to go online, check off everything that I need for the week at my local grocery store, head over there 20 minutes later with it bagged and ready (and still have the ability to pick up my own fruit while I'm there so it isn't bruised etc.).
So you are just gonna stick with DVD, because with the new stuff they treat you like a criminal?!? I've got news for you; they treat you like a criminal with DVD. Macrovision, CSS, etc. etc. The only difference is we've cracked it all. So give that as your reason, not 'how they treat you'.
For $1,500 you could buy many terrabytes of harddrives. Someone needs to rethink this whole thing; it is completely rediculous. If this is really anywhere near cost Sony is gonna take a bath on the PS3.
The problem for me is the flicker. However, this can be somewhat alleviated by taking advantage of the two out of phase lines you have coming in from the mains, although it has to thought of during construction.
I also mod all 'funny' down 2 by default. Not only that, I've modified the slashdotter extension with a set of regular expressions to auto-collapse those comments. For instance anything that goes something like 'I for one welcome our * overlords' is gone. Is this setup perfect? What if someone writes one of the most insightful posts ever and puts in a slight bitch about the overuse of that phrase towards the end? Gone; I don't see it. Oh well, I couldn't take some of the hive mind auto-responses anymore and it is worth it to me.
I have to agree. MS, as I see it, is entrenched for a reason and will not be detrenched until Linux or some other OS becomes as easy to use for non-technical savvy people (grandparents and the like) to use. OSX has been out for how many years now?
But it still doesn't refer to "those groups" that have written to him; which would be none. Which was the only point the distant parent post tried to make.
Shouldn't that be 2'3"? I could understand saying 15" to save space, but you already have a feet portion to hold 1. Anyway, what does two feet, three inches even mean in this context?

Completely depends on your metric. Fatality per mile, the shuttle is no doubt kicking cars' ass.
They'd have to makeup more than a few. 8^x adds up fast.

I agree, Xgl is smooth as glass on my laptop which just has a 32 meg card and 512 megs of ram.

What does legal have to do with right or wrong?

By that metric, lottery winners are some of the nation's top business people.

I heard Ballmer threw a chair at Gates over this.

You don't why they prefered to work on something which drew millions of players to pay a monthly subscription fee?
It didn't change as completely as you are saying as Warcraft III was an RTS/RPG.
Actually it was a few thousand.
Aliens already have the folding problem solved.
The 'little' in 'svelte little' is a touch redundant don't you think?

The DS is small enough that you can just use a bit of clear packing tape. Worked for me (after many attempts I applied it with no bubbles).
Proof by counter example:
Framerate: 0
Bearing on game? Yes
You should have passed. It made no sense. He's not allergic to the cat.
Clever troll.
I think also we might see a new type of 'tin whiskers' problem with this technology.
Hmm, I don't agree with that last bit. Someone can put aliases in your .bashrc that can do almost all of the things you talked about.
