Or maybe because Blu-Ray has been out for over a year, and PS3 is going to have Blu-Ray drives right from the start. And Blu-Ray's capacity is bigger than HD-DVD's.
Which is why you are going to make it a "fun contest" for your readers. That way you get a new design for the price of one subscription/t-shirt (that was also designed by a reader who didn't get paid. Money, that is).
Because I can. Seriously - if there was a way to delete all ads from TV, wouldn't most people do it?
I pretty much do just that. I have a Mythtv box, and usually I watch any programs it has recorded when I have the time. And when I do, I skip ads. Even when I watch "live" tv, I usually watch it at 90% rate, so that I'm able to skip at least part of the commercial break.
Oh yeah! Now that you mention it, it really is funny! You see, the article talks about how Java is not as slow as is generally believed, but then the grandparent says that he posted the message using Java! That's not funny as such, but it is when you consider that it's supposedly the first post! And it's funny to think that he might have actually been the first to post the message, but since he was using Java, its slowness caused the message to be actually posted waaay late!
Why should the file expire after two weeks? Other people will be able to download the same audiobook whether or no you can still listen to your copy after two weeks.
A more sensible scheme would prevent you from copying the file forward, but I don't think that's necessary either.
Linux will not be outlawed because it has significant other uses. The same with Macs.
What I don't know is wether an mp3 made on Linux or Mac from a cd that has copy protection (that works when you have auto-run enabled in Windows) is illegal.
He was bitten by radioactive sand. Although since genetic engineering is the current boogeyman in Spiderman, I suspect in the movie he will be bitten by genetically engineered sand.
none of the ads mentioned above contain any information whatsoever about what the consoles are, what capabilites they claim to have, what kind of games they run, or even who might like them.
Drug companies cannot say specifically how a drug works or detail its good effects because then they would legally have to tell you about the bad side effects.
Thanks for the great advice. Instead we just gave proper permissions to the folders that these programs created and then they worked for all users who logged on.
Yeah, this is the normal solution to any programs that don't work out-of-the-box on a limited account. The next step is to change the permissions in some branch of the registry...
Now that you mention it, Punkbuster needs administrator rights. My solution to those games is to "run as" administrator. It's still better than just logging is as an admin.
I just downloaded ver 8.5.0, and despite an hour of searching, I could not find how to remove that stupid "sub-search" area off the address bar.
What do you mean? The drop-down that shows address history and can be used to make a google search? Or possibly the "start bar" that appears by default when you click on the address line? I don't think you can remove the drop-down, but you can disable the other bar by unchecking "start bar" from the customization window.
Individual fields can be removed by rigth-clicking on them and selecting remove from toolbar.

suggestions for format?
DVD.
Put the title of the video in a menu along with a still or moving thumbnail of the video. Works just fine with MythTV.
I'm sure we can't afford him tho

The Slashdot effect is caused by links in a front page article, not links on the third page of comments of a first page article.
First thay came for the spammers, and I did nothing because I was not a spammer. And also because I fucking hate spammers!

The memorystick in my PSP is made by Sandisk.
Fuck you and the fucking Rez vibrator!

Well, Metal Gear Solid 4 looked pretty damn good. And it's supposed to be the real thing.
Opera 8.5's Acid2 is also almost a smiley-face: http://koti.mbnet.fi/wheany/kuvei/acid2opera85.png
Oh yeah, that's a really subtle joke.
It is.

Set renderfarm to kill.

It would be nice though if there was a site-specific hook to hang a user stylesheet upon, such as <body class="it-slashdot-org slashdot-org">
/ simple-site-signature
Try user javascript if you're using Opera, or Greasemonkey if you're using Firefox. Then use Simple site signatures: http://userjs.org/scripts/general/developer_tools
