The game allows you to kill people....you'd think that having sex with them would rate lower on the ESRB scale and automatically be covered. Having to specify everything for ESRB seems pretty stupid.
Unless of course, you kill them first then have sex with them. That might need a new rating.
If people knew you had 9 iPods to give away, I'm sure they'll be much friendlier to you.
If you had 10,500 free songs, would you pick and choose a song at a time? Or say 'screw it' and buy the entire album?
I don't know about 10,500 songs being a lifetime supply. Using a rough estimate of 10 songs per CD, I know 3 people who own that many songs. Some people are just indescriminant when they buy music.
Listening to all the songs though, that might take a lifetime.
...lawmakers do not plan to set forth a new version.
I thought this was the 2nd or 3rd time that software patent directive has come up. How do anyone know that there won't be another version for us to talk about months from now?
I think this was answered in Sci. American a few years ago. It turned out to be the relationship between the average table height and the rotational speed of toast. Or it might have been the average height of a person and rotational speed of toast.
Given this average height, toast doesn't have time rotate more than half a turn before hitting the ground. If tables and people were something like 10 feet tall, then people would be wondering why toast allways falls with the butter side up.
Well, the 10 feet figure is made up but that's the basic idea from the article.
I think people do care. This is after all "Slashdot: News for Nerds. Stuff that matters.", etc. Try finding other technology sites that are talking about this.
People here probably are not commenting since they don't know much about SCOTUS.
In the 90s, it ruined my college GPA as it must have done other people. Everyone once in a while I download it again and play for a few weeks. Then I'll erase it after never getting past the mines and not think about it for a few years.
At least now it only ruins my normal sleep cycle. I work in land development so being awake isn't a major requirement.
There is one advantage for slow development cycles like with Nethack. You can pick it up years later and it'll be pretty much the same.
You know...OSS coders could make it into a sort of Zeno's Paradox for Microsoft. If people keep coming up with cool ideas, then Microsoft will have to include them into Longhorn and push back its release date.
Quick...everyone start coding.
Oh, and my personal prediction for the next new feature for Longhorn: Podcasting.
Err...that is if they didn't already announce it. I'm not up to date with Longhorn.
Hopefully by the time Longhorn comes out, we'll have moved onto something better.
So MSFT has basically taken the better, cooler features out of Longhorn and replaced it with an RSS reader? I haven't been paying too much attention to Longhorn but really, what new things are going to be in there?
There is no good reason to make the key layout match a standard keyboard.
No...there is. Most people can pick it up and have a good idea where the letters are. It might be search and peck for you but I'd bet a good number of people know where the keys are on a standard layout.
Everyone who uses your ABC keyboard layout would have to spend time learning it.

The firemen will have to use a clever hack to pull you from the wreckage.

For example: AOL. Broken from birth, IMO.
I didn't see Mythbusters. How did they explain it?

And when they do, I hope it's sharp and pointy.
No...trial motions are basically black holes. Time eventually goes to a standstill for anything entering its event horizon.

Did Netcraft confirm it?

Oh wait...I think that's happy.
Here's shocked...

We don't know what any system will cost.
Parent post is a dupe! Heh....

is a Google-branded GPS system to tie into Google Earth. Then I could have a realtime You Are Here.

That's not what my stomach said yesterday. And not what my intestines said this morning.
Course, no one would complain if Joe Average bought a PowerMac to surf the web.

Too bad about the other two. I guess they don't have enough guile to be promoted any further.
