There is your first mistake. Nuke this software, no as a matter of fact, nuke the entire partition and reinstall windows. Whenever you are installing ANYTHING from HP, go for the barebones install; just install the device drivers. If the installshield won't let you do it, hunt the drivers down. DO NOT under any circumstance load the bloatware from HP.
I bought an HP Photosmart... I've printed at least a thousand 4x6 photos.
A Photosmart as your bulk printer? Do you enjoy getting ripped off? Are you eager to loose your print outs to color fading in 5 years? Go to your local photo shop and let them do it professionally and much cheaper.
This would not piss the grunts who serve behind the teller windows, this would piss the managers of the office responsible for receiving the money. If there are 4 tellers, and 10 taxpayers of them show up and pay in pennies the office production would halt for several days.
I don't get it... why would anybody be interested in having this piece of crapware native in their platform? I for one, avoid it like the plague: no machine under my wing gets touched with Realplayer.
Solitary confinement with him only able to be out three hours a day would be a good thing.
On the other hand, Bubba might get lonely. So my vote is none solitary with Bubba as cell mate.
opponents with auto-aiming snipers that shoot through walls. Or even if they can just fly (a far more rare and less threatening occurrence that is nonetheless not an exaggeration. As long as stuff like that exists banning modded 360's from live is a good way to protect the greatest part of your paying customer base from such behavior.
The only public available mod that allows you to run unsigned code, requires your 360 to be at certain kernel level. Logging into Live automatically updates your 360 kernel and burns a fuser, which prevents you from going back to the compromised kernel version. To the best of my understanding there are no mods out there which will allow you to run unsigned 360 code and connect to Live, much less allow you to run cheats or hacks.
Modding your DVD BIOS will only allow you to run copies of signed DVD games. This move is aimed at exclusively at killing piracy, not at easing hacking of from the 360.
"law firms are probably going to be very interested in the fact that she got caught with a fake ID when she was an undergrad."
Never mind getting caught with the fake ID. She was stupid enough to claim in writing ownership of a forged document (implying that she indeed had comited a forgery felony)! Oh boy, I am sure all the legal firms will be dying to get their hands on such a stupid, stupid councilor.
FTA: "this young lady is going places" Yep, It seems she is indeed heading to be the best paralegal ever to be (best case scenario).
Kidnapping is very illegal in Mexico; it is a criminal offense not a civil one. It does sadly, happen a lot here, but that still does not make it right or as you would put it a mere violation of his "civil rights". This guy came to play cowboy to a foreign nation, and now he is desperate to play the role of the victim here.
Try 7 Zip. The 7z compression format is totally unknown, but 7Zip will manage to compress and uncompress into a wide variety of formats (including zip, rar). It has a decent GUI and shell integration and to top it all, it is open source.
They do, but there current business model has been partially ruined by re-fillers and cartridge refilling kits. This might (very probably is) a clever way to solve the after market cartridge refilling business.
"message t-shirts" distracting people from buying the latest load of crap they are selling. Re-read the article. The "message t-shirt" was bought in the same mall. If they are really that preoccupied about consumers being distracted, how come they are selling them? A bit of an oxymoron, wouldn't you say? Would they have asked the protester to remove his t-shirt if it was a "support out troops" or pro-Bush one?
"That's why protests are typically held in downtown areas where there are lots of sidewalks and public areas." No, accordingly to the Estes Park Police they are organized in "Free Speech Zones" or "Protest Zones".
"You'd think that if we were about to see a dictatorship in the US, that some of these people would end up in prison or jail." Some of them have, or at least they have been hounded by the Homeland Security Department. And as of yet I'd never said the US was a dictatorship. I pointed out the fact that there is currently an erosion of the civil liberties, that there was no real need for laws to be passed in order for this to have happened.
"only for violating one of these extremely minor laws."
As you commented before, none of the laws have changed in the US, but that does not mean freedom of expression has not been seriously eroded in the US. Pre 9/11 none of these incidents would have happened. Nobody would have been asked to remove their clothes in the mall (mind you, the same clothes which were bought there!), or mandated to go to the "free speech" zone (WTF?!?!? There are such zones in the US?).
"These are all petty offenses. No one was arrested for having an opinion"
Come on man! How can you keep an honest face and say that? They were all arrested for having and voicing an opinion. The law enforcing agencies where used to repress that opinion. Did they charge them with having an opinion against the current US political agenda? No, but that does not mean the arrests were not originated due to them having an opposing opinion. Would the man in the mall had been arrested if he had a shirt applauding the US invasion? Would the mother of the KIA GI had been arrested if she had been cheering for Bush? Same goes for the guy who approached Cheney and the guy who handed out toilet paper.
"Just take a chill pill." If you noticed the pattern, all of these incidents surround the Iraq invasion. This is no chill pill matter. Some of the people involved in these incidents got severely affected by the war. Words fail short when it comes to describe the insensitivity of the SS taking down the mother of the KIA GI.
"what would happen to somebody who waved a fake gun in traffic in Switzerland." I'll give you that much. They would probable have seized the gun, but arrest him? No.
"please name one example of a law that has changed to this effect."
Laws do not need to change in order for freedom of expression to be reduced or even wiped out. The political mood in the last 5 years has turned downright repressive; people in power will not hesitate to use their resources against you in case you dare express opinions against the current US political agenda.
"put a bullet through the drive, do a Jeff Merkey and bash it against a rock, melt it in a Sentry heat treating oven at 2250F (FUN!!)."
Yea, disposing of the drive in that way is definetly fun, but it will make you look very suspicious in the eyes of the judge. I would alternatively suggest DBaning the drive (with the heavy duty erase algorithm), zeroing it, and then reinstalling the OS.
Maybe MTV is actually a signal/consequence of the times we are living in. When I was young (80s, 90s), people watched MTV and the M was for Music. The thing now a days is populated with reality shows of who dumped who, who got to screw who, and who can waste money in the dumbest way. Teens are no longer exposed to music, or at least not as much as older generations were exposed too.
I know this is Slashdot and we never RTFA, but in case you mistakenly managed to locate it (here), you would see that this Christian Group does in general give a positive review of the console. It only goes as far as warning the parents about the Wii's ability to be used as a browser and how to enable parental control on it. Period.
But then again, how would the poster of the original review generate traffic to his website if it was not by sensationalism?

They do, but there current business model has been partially ruined by re-fillers and cartridge refilling kits. This might (very probably is) a clever way to solve the after market cartridge refilling business.
But I guess you are just being sarcastic.
"Mediocre parents will rely on the ratings on the boxes"
You should rely at some point on the ratings on the boxes, unless you have had the time and resources to play every single new game out there.

"they decided to add an aftermarket spoiler, a 40,000 watt subwoofer and ground effects."
Yea, but they also added a "VTec" and "Type-R" stickers, so that should compensate for the exra load. =)
