CEO response: You poor, ignorant peasant. If it were not for my singular genius in implementing the customer as enemy policy, the losses would have been much worse so my high pay and bonuses are justified. As a wage earner you may lack the mental capacity to grasp my wisdom.
...moderate not based on merit of the comment, but instead based on their own biases
Everyone makes biased judgements and sometimes abuses happen. If your post is unfairly buried, repost to make yourself heard. Abusive mods eventually run out of points.
How important is any one post though? In a contentious thread, most sides have plenty of redundant posts. When I get slapped down I usually just shrug and move on. The current mob rule system works well enough. Not perfect, but surprisingly effective.
Nothing wrong with people first hearing news elsewhere then coming here to discuss it after stewing on the implications. That makes for more interesting posts.
Like most Canadians the story concerns me because what does it say about the country?
It says Canada has an environment that allows world class innovation (rise of RIM), and there is no magic solution for world class corporate hubris (stagnation and marginalization of RIM).
I thought it had been harmonized so everyone just uses EN55022.
The field will be measured up to several GHz
The latest EN55022 2006+A1:2007 version goes to 6GHz. The most problematic ranges I've seen for small devices like this are still in the 30-300MHz range.
The Republicans claimed to be against a practice hated by citizens, yet failed to explain how the amendment they killed does not protect people and failed to propose and alternative to protect people. Vague handwaving about addressing it in the unspecified future is worthless.
Now look at them yo-yo's that's the way you do it
You play the video on the STV
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and chicks for free
Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
...they don't count their video/vod streams against your monthly data cap either, do they?
Correct. Step by step, major ISPs are transforming your internet connection into just another cable TV connection. Expect fees and restrictions to "outside" content to increase in an escalating war of combined telecom/content providers.

I've never heard Teller complain.

The summary should be: "CCD Linked to Pesticide"
I get the feeling including HFCS so prominently in the story is more about triggering an emotional response in readers.
More bizarre to me was reading about mercury filled tubes as memory.

...why she's got no idea about the net, or about the wide acceptance of pornography
Maybe she is just tense and needs a visit from the pizza man.
This just offended or confused 90% of the MAC users
If you think 90% of Windows users are any less confused by the "Command Prompt", you have not had to give them technical support.
I think the main point of the article is robots are cool.

Geriatric brigade vs. Squirrels? My money is on the tree rats.
Don't upset the romanticized vision of Cletus and Lurleen on the porch as happy creatures dance on the lawn. Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door.
Fucking Hell. Lost credibility is right. Change the Bachmann to Obama and reread if you can't already grasp how screwed up the OP's post is.
Moar bitz!

...they had special people who were responsible for tracking all these legislative changes.
No doubt. Sometimes the continuous changes seem like a full employment program.
I don't suggest looking at emissions testing as a formality.
Sound advice. I've seen and shed plenty of tears after a great functional design gets sent back to meet ever shifting regulatory requirements.
CE tests are more strict than FCC.
