I'm a little shocked that these guys didn't just go commercial, though
Maybe they are. If they had instead announced that they would start charging then people would rebel and complain about them being greedy pigs. This way they just take it away, then respond to the outcry by saying "OK, OK, we'll bring it back as a small subscription service."
The facts themselves can't be copyrighted, only the presentation. If you know when something is scheduled to be shown there's nothing stopping you from telling people.
If you *really* want to write it properly, it's Not all stock investors are rich fat white dudes for whom nobody has pity.
People will tell you that you should put commas after rich and fat, but they are wrong.
Would they have to be living with each other for example having music available to other family members over a network in the home?
Apparently, if we are sitting together and I have songs playing on my computer it's ok if we both listen. But if instead your computer, sitting right next to mine, is playing them by reading them from my computer, then that's illegal. And absurd, of course. And makes the whole notion of comparing it to a physical "property" a bit silly.
I don't think that IE has much to fear from this. I think the project most in trouble by Safari on Windows is Firefox.
I don't expect WinSafari to make much of a dent. The main reason for creating it was for phone app development, and I doubt they'd have bothered if not for that. Apple doesn't benefit in the same way as it does from having iTunes for Windows.
The FireFox plug-in world is too compelling. If the OS X version of FF was better behaved I'd make it my main browser. Under Windows it's no contest.
I saw this story in Firehose and thought; interesting story, too bad the puerile wording will keep it off the front page...
Yeah, me too. It'd be nice to be able to include a one-line comment explaining why you're voting no. Often there are reasonably interesting stories with poorly-written submissions. I vote no figuring someone else will submit the same story with a better write-up, but it would be better if I could somehow note that. (Such as on Wikipedia, where you can explain an edit.)
Could you do this with USB? That was the question.
Target Disk Mode is a feature that Macs have had since about the time they first had firewire. Even some old cranky Mac can probably be mounted as an external hard drive. OS X's initial set up program uses it to do the transfer. There's no way to mount another Mac as a USB drive.
Disk Mode, when you need it, is an extremely useful feature. There's no faster and easier way to bulk-copy files from one Mac to another. It's not even close.
But still it remains that firewire is not used as much.
To me, having a firewire port on a Mac is so extraordinarily useful that I would pay extra even if it was for only a one-time use. When I get a new one to the first thing I do is connect my old one to it via a firewire cable, then boot the old one into target disk mode. The new Mac will use the connection to completely replicate my working environment.
Then when I log in, everything is exactly how it was on the old machine. All my files, directory structure, everything, all the way down to where the items on the desktop are sitting. It couldn't be any easier, and if you value your time at all that one single feature is worth one heck of a lot.

So what do you think about people who correct someone for correcting someone?
But irregardless of that, it's still not a word.
IT just ain't right that the GP is at +5 funny, and yours is as of now still at 1.

Facts don't have owners.
Keep this up and pretty soon you'll be knocked down to Lieutenant.
Good list. I can see why Longhorn Vista took so long to "complete."
Shouldn't that be 1002?

You have a strange life. Was this some sort of drunken note-taking party?
Though I did like the content.
Negative three possible endings. Boy that sucks. Heck, even Halo 2 had only negative one.
OK, look up. A little more to your left. A bit more. OK, just a little bit more. Nope, that's too far. Just a hair back to your right. There! See it?
Of course. Why do you think they call it Club Soda?

You're right, that's a good point.
Phone app development.

I believe the escape velocity on Io is about 5,000 miles per hour. I don't know how powerful the volcano is, but that's awfully fast.
Do you think it's being ejected at escape velocity? It looks to me like it's falling back down.
Yeah, me too. It'd be nice to be able to include a one-line comment explaining why you're voting no. Often there are reasonably interesting stories with poorly-written submissions.

Seems like standards have fallen a bit.
