Quick, crappy, hack to get around it. Install the imagezoom extension and if there is a picture in the table that holds the article you can zoom it to some giant amount and 9 times out of 10 it stretches the table in the desired way. The rest of the time it stretches it in a way that the text goes under the sidebars and gets garbled. I use it on Penny-arcade all the time, just zoom the "news - click here for comments" gif and you are on your way to unstrained eyes.
At least sega won't be able to drop in the latest roster/stats into Football2K6 and pretend it is a new game. I could give two shits about an updated "Western Whizzies" roster. Now they will actually have to improve their game, and perhaps *gasp* not release every damn year. Granted they aren't likely to even stay in the football game business at all. And EA is just going to be dropping in rosters for some time to come, maybe some minor tweaks here and there. Damn I'm glad I don't care about football games.
But cancer patients with resistant tumors are so... hot. I mean, they have men/women fawning all over them and therefore are likely to procreate more often than those of us without them.
Allow me to POWERPOINT out a little flaw in your WORDING which wasn't an EXCELlent choice for a place like slashdot, a place full of Microsoft haters. This ONENOTE I'm going to give you will hopefully give you ACCESS a new OUTLOOK on spelling mistakes.
"would be more excelerated if some of these restrictions could be lifted."
So if I want to avoid trouble for "distributing" cocaine I can just sell truckloads of it and include the truck?? Are you insane? I guess publishers of software aren't distributing it either then under your logic--they are just installing it onto DVD disks.
It doesn't even have to be a reasonable fee. It's just this (with GPL--with BSD they can do whatever they want) they have to include the source with any binaries they distribute, or make the source available through an alternate means where they do not charge more than is reasonably necessary to distribute the source (this is what you are thinking of). So as long as they include the source with all the binaries they sell, they can charge as much as they want. If they sell just the binaries for whatever they want then they have to provide the source to the people whom they sold binaries to at a cost not unreasonably exceeding that of the media.
Joke aside? JOKE ASIDE?!?! It isn't a joke, it is a fucking madlib. Please don't try to put joke status on it ever again. Thankfully, as a madlib, it will be extremely easy for me to take all posts making use of it out via greasemonkey, I'll start working on it right now.
You don't sue the copy store, because you can't ask them to undo their copies. Yahoo can do that. However, if you do sue Yahoo, Yahoo certainly has rights to sue the husband. Unfortunately, the jury will award millions of dollars over something that amounts to nothing more than a small embarrassment, and there is no way Yahoo can collect on that sum from the Husband. America is falling to shit because of it's legal environment.
They don't always cripple it intentionally. They design for instance cache so that if there is a defect in one half of it they can disable it and still use the other half (ever bought a celeron?). So the majority of it isn't just straight out intentional crippling, but I do admit that has happened a good bit in the past.
No. The water is most likely not pumped out of the bottom like you are thinking. Instead it is a closed loop system with a huge radiator at the bottom and then insulation all over the rest of the pipe all the way to radiators in the homes (AC), businesses, etc. that the water gets pumped through.
I agree with you on the revolution but as someone with a modded xbox I already have full emulation of every system n64 and below. Suddenly the revolution just isn't so revolutionary to me.
Ok, I should have used that i.e. in parens to say "(i.e. didn't successfully settle with)." Still I don't think I was that ambiguous. The MGM v. Grokster suit is still ongoing and is far from decided, so they haven't won it, which is what I meant by sucessfully sued. Now that I think about it I am wrong because they did successfully sue Friendster and the Grokster case went away from that ruling and that is why the whole thing is going to Supreme Court (circuit split).
My post was short and not fully elaborated. But you confused it on purpose for something I didn't say. I said it was scary and the reason it was was because of the detrimental effects of having one giant governing body have to decide yes/no to giant issues which can many times best been decided by letting a multitude decide and then see what works best. You then bring up the environment which is a good point but just because it works for some things doesn't mean it is an ideal solution for all things. For instance right now Europe doesn't have patents on software and the US does. Under this giant government we would probably have patents on software across the board. There are some things for which a system like this works and others for which it doesn't. The arguments have been rehashed millions of times between libertarians and federalists; but it is still a very valid concern.
Saying Einstien left his country because he was freedom loving is like saying I left the target side of a shooting range when people started shooting because I wanted to go fix myself a sandwich.
Wow that would be extremely scary. The type of decisions that would then become "yes/no" across the board would be extremely detrimental. Also the US would never give up its current power in this area.
The only one they successfully sued in court (i.e. didn't settle with) used centralized searching (Napster), so I don't quite see what you mean by every P2P software distributor sued by the RIAA has used built-in searching.
One thing to note about Ebert giving it x amount of stars: he has said himself to just read his review, don't look at the stars; he hinted that the stars are somewhat paid for.

No you got it wrong, he probably pays slashdot to run his stuff, not the other way around.
Reading this article makes me think we are setting ourselves up for a whole 'nother dot com boom/bust.

I think you meant accelerated.

The explanation was supposedly in the new one... Yoda says to Obi Wan that he has learned the secret of immortality from someone.
Scroll down to where the guy produces his wireframe... that entire picture is a bunch of photographic plates, not that impressive.

"Management consultants"? HAH! Every modern business has replaced these with a single "e-consultant." Please get with it or perish like pets.com.
He didn't misread the post. The post had a typo. However he was a bitch to even mention it and not know that the guy was talking about ps2 all around.
Even if you put up a shop that sells them this is still legal under the DMCA. At least judging by the Supreme Court not taking up the Lexmark case.

Ok it isn't nearly as clear cut as I put it. But it certainly isn't as clear cut as you put it either. Have a read.
