Talking about the Dell logo - compare the logo on the player and the one on it's screen. Jobs would have the people responsible executed - and rightfully so.
Theory and modelling predict that hurricane intensity should increase with increasing global mean temperatures,
but work on the detection of trends in hurricane activity has focused mostly on their frequency, and shows no trend. Here I define an index of the potential destructiveness of hurricanes based on the total dissipation of power, integrated over the lifetime of the cyclone, and show that this index has increased markedly since the mid-1970s. This trend is due to both longer storm lifetimes and greater storm intensities. I find that the record of net hurricane power dissipation is highly correlated with tropical sea surface temperature, reflecting well-documented climate signals, including multi-decadal oscillations in the North Atlantic and North Pacific, and global warming. My results suggest that future warming may lead to an upward trend in tropical cyclone destructive potential, and--taking into account an increasing coastal population--a substantial increase in hurricane-related losses in the twenty-first century.
Chris Landsea from the NOAA (who compiled the statistic you quoted) said: "This ist he first article that has a smoking gun between global warming and hurricane activity".
here is an article (in German - Google Translation) about a Trojan that is used to do distributed checks whether >12,000 well known domains have become "free" on various WhoIs databases. Which are then taken over within minutes and used to promote (porno-)dialers and the trojan.
This technology is only slightly faster than that, and is really much closer to the Iris reader pen.
Err, no, this is way faster than pen and paper or IrisPen. Again, this is 3-5 seconds per page, not per (couple of) lines. It probably is even faster than a copier/flat-bed scanner, because you just have to turn pages.
The good old "There have always been natural changes in climate, so this has to be one too" argument. Time to look at some graphs were "today" isn't 1950. Or maybe to actually read that page instead of just looking at the purty picshures.
So why didn't he "fly out" hundreds of people of Arabic origin, instead of throwing them into jail for months without a trial? Why were the Bin Ladens known to be "respectable traders"? Because they had connections with the Bush family maybe? There are members of the Bin Laden family slightly less extreme than Ossama, did they even check if they were among those "evacuated"?
They'ld never use Babelfish, because it didn't score well in their test of online translators. Which was another case for BILDblog - because the results prove they didn't use the sentences they said they tested the translators with.
A) A device that has all the drawbacks of cellphone provider monopolies
C) The need to connect to a PC for its music player functionality.
E) iTunes software, without its most intuitive interface element.
C) Yeah, obviously being dependent on downloading all songs directly from the provider for the low cost of $5 in bad quality would be better.
E) Are you sure you don't confuse iTunes and iPod?

Actually, Dell has to sell something other than digital music players, because they don't sell too many of those.
Hey, it makes just as much sense.
Watch out for the feminists to get you! You have to alternate male and female names.

Theft? I thought we called it copyright infringment on /. ?
With a 0.00...% marketshare, users for Win64's first public beta had to wait how long for the first virus?
If someone can palm a manipulated programm off on you, he can also give you a false checksum to match.

Actually, they pump less than they could to get more out of the fields.
I don't remember you complaining about Podcasting - which is the same bloody thing for audio.

Ohh, it isn't entirely made up. Just the part with the cats and the animal rights activists.

More like something pretending to be a dupe, but claiming something else - and still getting it wrong.
Yeah, but you do think people should stop mumbling all the time, right ?-)
You just rewrote computer history.
My very first comment on Slashdot was making fun of Microsoft - it took me weeks to get my comments to start at +1 again.
Or something like that.
Gee, why don't you ask a car-salesman about how good the car you want to buy is compared to the car he wants to sell you.
Been there...
