My son and I managed to snag a Wii last year, so we sold the empty box (before Christmas) on ebay last year. Made it painfully clear that the box was empty; even posted pictures of the box open and empty. Still managed to sell it for $15.
The RUF makes more sense. http://www.ruf.dk/ Cheaper by an order of magnitude per mile and you can drive on and off it. The lesson of the internet is that the first and last mile matter.
Not quite true. The food you ingest only becomes calories when it's digested. And that's dependent upon the bacteria in your gut. I'll bet that once the research is done, food and nutrition will be seen in a greatly different light.
Wow, wouldn't it be cool to use this to make a DVD with angle selection? Or, even better, take the cameras off, and put them in a circle around a room, and film all those ancient martial arts masters from every angle. Oh, to have Bruce Lee, or Chang Man Ching, or TT Liang doing the sword form (in his prime, of course; not when he was 100 years old).
I got one of these. Googled for the part number and it turns out that a cold solder joint is responsible for burning up an op amp. Replace the op amp and re-solder the cold solder joint and all is fine.
If you can't do that, then tell me the model number and I might pay the shipping to get it from you.
Hard drives are easy to disassemble, then you end up with a pile of metal (recyclable), PC boards (landfill), magnets (reuse) and hard drive platters (pretty). I've got a stack of hard drive platters an inch tall. Twenty hard drives gave their all for that stack.
There was an old Saturday Night Live sketch, mocking the then-current New York City advertising campaign for its trash bins: "Keep New York Clean". The SNL version was "Keep New York Clean (dump your trash in New Jersey)" which is, of course, where New York City trash goes.
You do realize that a modern landfill encapsulates the contents away from "the environment" (whatever the hell that is). No, of course you don't realize that. Otherwise you wouldn't talk about "consequences on the environment."
Sheesh, are all story capsules this bad? Google wants OPEN Spectrum, which anybody is allowed to resell. So they're actually not working against the carriers, they're working to make sure that all carriers can get a piece of the pie.
Besides, Google isn't evil. It's part of their corporate charter, so if Google is ever evil, you could sue their officers for malfeasance.
CAN WE HAZ SINGLE-PAYER HEALTH CARE NOW? No, really, given that most market interventions end up hurting consumers, as this article makes clear, can we please NOT have single-payer health care?
Mod me off topic if you want, but I want to go on record as being the first person to say that the government is the enemy.
Speaking of stealing spectrum, I've also stolen the light that comes out of people's houses. It goes into my eyeballs, and I carry it home. I hope I don't get caught!
Can Comcast block spam? I mean, I'm just wondering. Because it seems like the end result of this line of argument is to give spammers a precedent that says "You must deliver our spam."
what's so hard about this?

Get a girlfriend, put her on your lap, and then put the computer in HER lap. What's so hard about that?
The problem with Roe vs Wade is that abortion is a medical procedure which should be allowed or prohibited at the state level. Perhaps you're too young to remember when some states had made abortion legal and others not? People were organizing transportation to abortion-legal states -- and the abort-illegal states CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. That's how our country is supposed to work -- the federal government can only do a few things, and the state governments can't regulate your behavior too badly because you can always move to another state. The design protected freedom, but IDIOTS allowed the federal government to go beyond its allowed powers.
There's nothing wrong with a gold standard unless you try to do something stupid like fix the value of your currency relative to somebody else's currency. That's why we went off the gold standard in the first place.
Yes, some conspiracy nuts and fascists support him. Some socialists support Hillary. Same insanity, different candidate. The fact that nuts are in favor of one candidate or another should be no constraint on whom you support.
Has anybody ever noticed that the federal government is limited to a VERY small number of tasks, and that everything else is to be done at the state level? I'm sure that one of the tasks that states are responsible for is counting their own voter's votes. So where does the federal government get off trying to do something un-Constitutional? Don't these bozos swear an oath to defend the Constitution? We oughtta be able to put them in jail for perjuring themselves, at very least.
Sony doesn't understand that it's evil. Their hardware functionality is dictated by their ownership of content. Everything they do is infused with copy protection; another word for that is "preventing the creation of value for the customer." They would generate a LOT MORE MONEY for stockholders by splitting themselves up into a hardware company and a content company.
Disclosure gets you better security. Yes, it means two steps forward and one step backwards. If you only look at the step backwards then you'll miss that you've gotten better security overall.

I'm sure that the beings living on Venus are sure that life cannot exist on the frozen vacuum that is Earth.

Even better, use djbdns and copy your zones using ssh.
Don't hit me with those negative waves so early in the morning. Have a little faith, baby, have a little faith.

Good luck defining "evil".

You're criticizing Ron Paul by citing Michael Moore?
Wow. I'm speechless.
I've never heard of Bob Qwerty. I mean, he doesn't even have a Wiki page.
