This is not informative. This is sad. Optimus Prime is a fictional character. And as someone who's loved watching The Transformers since age 7, I think the redesigned ones in the recent movie and video games look incredibly badass and more plausible than the 1980s cartoon. Even the toys back then were closer to today's designs because they had to be able to bend and flex a little.
You may wish to loosen your aluminum foil hat. Halo 2 came out for the original Xbox and multiplayer for on the 360 was recently turned off. If they mentioned Halo 3 or Halo: Reach (Coming Fall 2010, reserve your copy now!), you might have something there.
I like to advertise my shirt designs. I'll set my camera on a printout with a design and a comment like "Put some clothes on. Get this shirt for $10" and let it sit all day. There is no way to put hyperlinks in, of course, so I just have the URL typed out on the sheet of paper.
I'm going through the same pains trying to transition from GIMP to Photoshop. When I need to get something done really fast, I go back into GIMP because time is precious. Luckily, I haven't been tainted by experience with Inkscape, so I have some hope in learning Illustrator.
I was going to say to send a response written in German and watch them collapse like goatse's colon, but I suppose it's not healthy to live in the past like that.
If you're an incredibly shallow person, there is nothing worth watching on Netflix. Their recommendation engine spits out dozens of compelling TV shows and movies on my Xbox 360 that I end up watching.
I like Gmail's approach to graphics. You can attach your pictures as actual attachments and then they just show up at the bottom of your message, but not as inline graphics. It's a kind of best-of-both-worlds approach.
I came here to say this. If you have to ask, you should not get one. I have 2 of them and have four simple bits of advice for anyone that contemplates getting one:
1. Don't get one. 2. A tattoo needs to be a personal decision based on *zero* input from others. 3. Assume that no one will ever see it. Do you still want one? 4. In hindsight, after a while, you will probably not even notice that you have a tattoo. You don't have the benefit of hindsight today. Do you still want one?
As you can see, I think a negative attitude is a healthy attitude in the decision making process.
Or, just pay $30 a year for Xbox Live and talk to all sorts of random people while playing games. Don't like the group you're chatting with? Just leave the game and pick another one...a never-ending supply of disposable friends!
Every week I get a huge, thick swath of papers of local advertisements and coupons in my mailbox at home. It goes straight from my mailbox to my recycle bin and it's a huge waste of resources to print all that crap, waste fossil fuels in taking to my house and wasting more fossil fuels to have the recycling truck pick it up. There probably are some useful local businesses that I'd like to know about. I'd rather see ads for local businesses that I can support than national chains.
For anyone that's complaining about this, go ahead and put your money where your mouth is if you're so emotionally fragile that an advertisement will just *ruin* your day.
That's how it works. A portion of your pay in some firms is indirectly slotted toward campaign contributions for certain candidates. That way, the company isn't making one, big, glaring contribution.
If you want local news, you have to put your money where your mouth is. The future of local news will be in the form of radio (mostly public radio) and local newspapers, as well as a few sparse, niche web sites. In pure economic terms, there isn't much need to have a local TV station. All of that bandwidth is best reclaimed and repurposed for a nationwide wireless network.
Why would you be afraid of an Eva unit? Are you afraid of your mother, too? Now, that is creepy and maybe something personal you shouldn't be discussing on Slashdot.
Well, my Christmas and birthday present shopping just got a whole lot easier. I can give everyone I know a customized encyclopedia about where they're from, their ancestry, their interests, etc.

That and your mom basically takes a dump on you while you're being born. Joseph Campbell was right when he said being born is a heroic act.

It looks like crap. I'll take the 5-6 year consistency of a console.

Back in those days, beer and wine was safer to drink than water because the alcohol would kill all the organisms that made you sick.

Derp?

I think they would be jealous of their brides.
I put up a sign advertising my web site and let it run all day. With so many naked people, I figured there must be a market for clothing.
Yes.
Or someone's future ex-wife.
I think M.I.A. was onto something with that Born Free video.
I like to think of Digg as a refreshed version of Slashdot without all the bitterness of Linux/OSS diehards lurking in every corner.
They should rename Uranus to put an end to that joke once and for all. Any suggestions?
