Yeah, whatever. You were lucky.
51% is the stated bias. in 13 tosses, that would possibly bias it one count and even then it is statistically more likely it wouldn't.
Am I only one who watched the video, and thinks this guy was drunk on his ass? I can't believe he was lucky enough to dodge a DUI, and then has the gall to take this to the Supreme Court. And why is this on Slashdot?
Why are you on slashdot?
Most of us are of the progressive group of individuals that enjoy individual rights and freedoms.
I think a republic is state of government where the people do not directly elect the leader.
The United States is a Democratic Republic, meaning the people get to vote, they just don't directly elect the leader.
If you are reading this and thinking that in the United States, the people DO elect the leader, you only need to look back 4 years to see that is not true. Bush received less votes than Gore, but Bush is our "leader."
I don't think they'll be figuring out basis on stocks, since it isn't an exact science.
Maybe for the 80% of folks that file the short form they could do this.
If they lose money on it, then you can make them lose MORE money by buying it, not less.
Take it as a Limit Problem
The limit of the amount of $$ lost by MS as Sales of XBoxes approaches infinity is infinity!
Therefore, to bankrupt them you would simply buy all the xboxes (and never buy games, XBox Live, etc).
Yes, the amount they would lose on each one would decrease as they lowered costs due to the marginal costs of producing each xbox, but overall, the hardware will always cost more than $99.
However, if I had to pay all of their court costs, then they would be motivated to only settle if it was indeed their fault (because not only do they pay the 20k, they also pay my court costs). If I sue them frivilously, then I have to pony up their multiple hundred-thousands in court costs (including time, attorney fees, etc).
No, instead it would turn into a whoever has the deepest pockets wins. This is a classic LOOSING argument you present. The well-funded will just spend a ton on litigation thus increasing the potential liability of the person suing to such an extent that it would ruin them if they did lose - most lawyers wouldn't even take the case even if it was winnable because the potential loss is too large. Such a law is destined to hurt the people that have already been wronged.
The technology "might" be available in five years. But we have technology right now that they could do this with - flash, and by then flash has got to be pretty cheap. Nah, I'd have to say CD's will be here for at least ten more years.
No, they obviously haven't, however we don't live back then. I'm seriously curious: at what point do you think Christianity magically made this transition you're saying it underwent -- from the old, whacked-out ideas about good and evil to our supposed modern enlightened ones?
Hey...re-read what I said...did I say anything about Christianity??
Get off yer little box.
No, they obviously haven't, however we don't live back then. Radical Muslims are the #1 international problem right now. Sure, people are starving and some countries are in civil wars, but the famine isn't going to visit destruction upon foreign countries. People will always be starving and combating internal strife. When internal goes external the priority of the issue goes up.
Religion is the most destructive thing in history. The screwed up concept of right and wrong inherent in Islam is the current problem. In the past, it was other religions with similarly messed up concepts of right and wrong. Islam as it is today needs to be ended. If the guys with the bombs could get it through their ignorant heads that when you blow up - you don't go to some Xanadu and get showered with virgins, this would all go away.
Even if these numbers are too large, this still makes you think about how inefficient our cars are.
I think the inefficient part in the process is the break down of the plant into hydrocarbons. One gallon of gas comes from just a few gallons of oil. So, the weak link isn't the car.
Considering the cost of an HDTV receiver and the dearth of programming for it, I doubt I'll be getting one - ever.
Within a couple years, TV's will come with the receiver built-in. In that same time-frame, 90% of network programming will be offered in HD. The TV's are already cheaper than the Top of the Line Analog models of just 5 years ago.
I purchased my receiver for $150 from Dish Network. With a $30 antenna sitting on my entertainment center, I get all of the local HD signals.
Five years from now, analog TV's will be like black and whites in the 70's.
get real...saying objectification is illegal is outright silly. My watching porn impinges not one bit on your rights. Your kid watching porn impinges not one bit on your rights. YOU making a law such that someone cannot watch porn DOES impinge on others.

Yeah, whatever. You were lucky. 51% is the stated bias. in 13 tosses, that would possibly bias it one count and even then it is statistically more likely it wouldn't.
This surprises you why?
Bill is a firm believer in the fact that you don't get ahead in business by doing the "right thing."
It's a sad statement.

Install Kazaa on 10 boxes and load them up with Porn and set them as servers.

Huh? Since when does a HDTV cost $10k? You can get them now for $1000. Welcome to 2004.
I'm gonna need a new PSU!
Oh, what's the matter? You mean you can't prove it?
90% is a crap number. I'll bet at least 25% of those people are using it to download porn.
Our government sure has some messed up priorities.

We do need something smaller, though.
