Wouldn't a civilization capable of crashing Jupiter into the sun also be capable of colonizing nearby galaxies? By that time, earth would have been long-forgotten, the remaining residents having left after Dubya XXIV declared the sun a rogue celestial body since Osama bin Laden (still in hiding) orchestrated a terrorist attack on OneWorld headquarters in Texas during the daylight hours.
The Dead made plenty of money, are very business-savvy, and are actually fiercely protective of their IP. You can trade recordings, just not sell them.
That's where listening to a book from Audible on my iPod comes in. You can even listen at work (not while doing creative work, though). It's not exactly reading but it works for some books.
I'm in the process of re-ripping my CDs into AAC and while that is saving space I'm finding a lot of CDs and songs that I missed the first time through. I'm up to 50-something GB and over 12,000 songs (I'm in "R" right now). Then again, I'm using my iPod at work and I load up a only week's worth of music at a time. However, I'm setting up a used iMac in the stereo room where I'll be using iTunes sharing from my PowerMac so that 50-something GB will be put to good use oh so soon. Yum.
Transhumanism is an interdisciplinary approach to understanding and evaluating the possibilities for overcoming biological limitations through technological progress.
Are these the guys that are going to make it possible for me to have virtual sex with Christy Canyon? Ah, the future's so bright I'm going to go blind;-).
I only want to see objective viewpoints of why the book may be helpful to me, not why it made you change your perspective on life!
Humans are always going to write subjective reviews. That's just the way it works. If you want reviews that are objective and totally tailored for you, I suggest writing your own book review generator. You might even be able to pick up some tips from that code generation book.
As great as this CD is...I still think that even $10 is too much for it.
That's where that box off to the right that reads "22 used & new from $8.00" comes in very handy. If it wasn't for used CDs, my collection would be a whole lot smaller.
Hmm. I pulled a CD out of the air (Live at Carnegie Hall by Renaissance) and compared the Cheap CD price with Amazon and Amazon came out cheaper by almost a buck. Maybe they're not as near wholesale as you think (plus no handling charge and free shipping (over $25) at Amazon). FYI.

Are you kidding? Something like NetNewsWire offers your readers listings of all the articles' subjects, just like a mail reader. Unlike email, where every message is downloaded, your users only have to download the articles they are interested in. On the listkeeper side, you have zero bounces because nothing is going out.

Try 128 AAC. I can hear that it's better than 192 MP3 even through my dinky little headphones. Better sounds and smaller files make me a happy guy.
Duh:
Redundant:
I like the "derisively" part of "duh" better. ;-)

It is times like this that the need for a "Duh!" -1 moderation is screamingly obvious.
It's even worse than that, folks. Los Angeles has banned lap dancing. There truly is no reason to live here anymore.
That's "Nucular", bubba.
;-)
Yeah, Card is kinda like sausage. Enjoy but if you look behind the scenes you may not like what you find. Best to just enjoy.
Anyone else constantly impressed with this guy?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Yup. I've been keeping an eye out for a twin of my dual G4 450 and they're still at least $600 or so. Not bad for a three-year-old box.
What's an intensive purpose?
A mean porpoise.
What's that? He didn't say "insensitive porpoise"?
Nevermind.

Wow, re-reading the score 4-5 /. posts when the iPod was first announced is really quite interesting.
This one is my favorite:
I can't even stand my local classical station (KUSC) because even they are too repetitious for me.
Amen, brother (and I am not even close to being seriously into classical yet even I can tell)!
Why on earth would you need a color display on your MP3 player? It seems like a useless increase in cost to me.
Because I want to see the cover artwork while a song is playing. Seeing just the text is so...so...non-graphic. Mmm, eye candy.
Transhumanist, eh? From the site:

We didn't have this hiphop crap (Yo Yo Yo!) in the 1980's.
Be fair. Though the early eighties didn't have (much) rap, it had Kajagoogoo.

Pay me $20 -- I'll listen to a track from Metallica's new album.
Man, I forced myself to listen to the whole thing (I didn't get more than a minute into the DVD, though). $20/song is about right. Shudder...
Ah, the human mind and its capacity to rationalize just about anything...

But what will Liv Tyler do now that Ben is with J-Lo?
She'll do her husband, I should think.
