I'd recommend lubing the bottom of the floor mats so they do slide, that way you do have a requirement for the "firmware upgrade".
Sheesh. The 10million lines of code have been in your car since before you bought it. They didn't re-do all 10 million (or whatever the real number is) they change some that was faulty.
No worries man.
Get 'er done in the words of the "immortal" larry the cable guy.

This is more what I see here on slashdot. Somewhere in the middle is the common ground.

Then the world would be a better place. Although, I kinda like the idea of being a pirate. I've always wanted to sail the open seas, plundering vessels, going ashore and plundering the village's wenches. AARRGGG.
FEDERAL Judge. Not local, county, state. Federal. And, honestly, whomever started this whole thing should have known better. My point? It's stupid in the first place and stupid that it went to the federal level before it was ordered to cease.
The absurd part is that a frigging Federal Judge had to step in and order them to stop. You know, ordered them to stop something they shouldn't have been doing in the first damned place.
Think of it as a trip to Wendy's to get a value meal. If you get a classic single with cheese meal, regular size is ~$5.00. If you get it "large-sized", it's approximately $6.50.
There. More food for more cost. "More random"=more cost.
(Is it really more random if the part of the generation is either a 1 or a 0? Those states are known. It's either one or the other.)/snark

And I'll say once again, you folks work in an environment that sucks.
Guess your managers are either stupid or don't value your input.
Sorry.
Man you guys are jaded all to hell. Where do you work where they don't care about what tools you use that could make you more productive?
I want to know so I'll know to stay away from any products you might produce for the public.

I beg to differ, I'm pretty sure Hugh Jackman's character in Swordfish was treated pretty well...during some of the "hacking" scenes, anyway.
You win the prize! ;-)
You must have one hell of a walk down to the reset button on the console.
That screen is insane. Over 11.500 sq ft of viewing space. Unreal.
Yeah, I dunno. My present solution is a 60" tv with a Ps-3 hooked to it. All this seems...excessive.
(hypocrisy, thy name is em emalb)
Teller: /puts on robe and wizard hat.
Penn: Oh no, not you again!
that's a good way to run afowl of the law.
I agree...the tragedy, though, is that quacks *CAN* gain influence. Oh well.

You sir, win the prize!
Why that's just....pauses, whips off sunglasses...ludicrous.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude, all I have to do is inhale and I will end you.
Wow...that would suck.
Quite possibly the second lamest thing I've ever seen.
The first being whatever response I get to this post.
Justin Timberlake must be PISSED. All that effort to bring sexy back, and Apple goes and squashes it like a bug. Figures.

agreed. A projector on a phone is like the male nipple.
Yeah, I'm definitely trying to get my outrage meter pegged over this, but just can't get the energy together to do it.
IMO, a complete non-story. Anything less than 720 isn't frigging "Hi Def" anyway.
Yes, I understand that a bill is before Congress in the US requiring parents to wrap their children in bubble wrap until they're 18 years old.
GOSHDAMNIT, THINK OF THE CHILDREN, YOU SELFISH BASTARDS!
