"Payola was rampant in the music business in the 1950s and 1960s, when record executives rewarded disc jockeys with prostitutes, cash or drugs for playing their songs."
Man, that's a sweet setup.
As far as Spitzer goes, he's already declared he is running for NY governor. He'll beat the crap out of anyone who opposes him for the obvious reasons. The fact that he has legal jurisdiction over most of the world is a good deal--when he runs, people will ask, so where was this guy when Enron collapsed? When we lost all our money to Wall Street corruption? When little Timmy was corruption by email spam? Who took on all the corruption and graft?
Oh, yeah. Spitzer was there! He's actually an honest candidate. Expect him and Obama to kick some ass over the 6, 10 years.
no, they're showing us a commercial website hawking things they have yet. they don't even know how they're going to make it. all they have is a shiny, photoshoped picture.
great. wonderful. that's not news. it's hype.
wake me up when they have a prototype. in the mean time, wanna check out my website? i need the advertising money.
"But what has people excited is not what orbit might be used, but rather what could be done there. Space industries in high Earth orbits could manufacture solar power satellites (SPS) from lunar or asteroidal resources. Each SPS could deliver twice as much low cost, environmentally safe energy to Earth, via microwaves, as the Grand Coulee Dam, and forty five of them could meet the total present electrical power needs of the U.S."
Nevermind to use them for complete control of the earth by a world-wide empire.
But hey, what would nerds know about that? Just let the politicians keep cramming this nonsense about the glories of space, and keep those nerds working hard to build those empire-building lasers and missiles and....
Next Up: Bush claims Iraq could be used to develop solar cells that would save the environment! Sweet! I always needed a justification for it, too.
i mean, this is far more hardcore than the space shuttle. it is. at least when coding software for the space shuttle you have a massive budget with no profit objective and the people involved are all aware of the risks and willing to die and all (astronauts, at least)... and, worst case, hell, its rocket science, its supposed to be hard.
but coding for the roller coaster? an improper pointer reference at the wrong time and you just killed people only looking for a good laugh.
Five years after running afoul of the Feds, Microsoft is as powerful than ever. Pushing a platform instead of products could make it stronger still. Why nothing seems to stop it.'""
Well no sh** sherlock! I mean, I can think of 40 billion reasons right off the top of my head why this is the case...
hey, i got a site! and i got advertisers on it! so maybe i'll jsut post this story about star trek and space and technology and saving the earth and play it off as news and HEY.... i'll make a few hundred bucks off it if i can get slashdot to fall for it.
hahhaa. what, by enslaving 95% of the earth in the silicon and aluminum mines? soylent green FTW!!!!!!!!!!!
you should know: there is no such thing as the economy. just people. and there's only one way to make the people more productive: either more people, or by fucking those peoplein the ass a little harder then previous.

When they hit level 60.
No endgame FTW!
Not all protests are good, and not all riots are bad.
Sometimes riots are all that's left. I mean, the Boston Tea Party was a riot, wasn't it? And look at what happened there.
Not all riots are bad, and not all rioters deserve to be shot.

so... slashdot is posting an advertisement for something that isn't even remotely in existence yet?

welcome to Slashdot, the Bank.
hell, i could have told you that this morning.
"no officer, i can't be hungover. i'm still drunk."

talk about stress. ha.
yeah, add a little... herb under that hotspot and you'll get wifi-ed real quick. the speed is impressive.
yeah, it's that way on google maps, too.
but i think it is mostly a coincidence.
there are plenty of places that have terrible resolution that don't seem to be correlated to anything important.
i want a map of every gold mine in the world.
it should also overlay with oil fields, poulation density, fresh water supply, and power lines.
muwahahaa.
Well no sh** sherlock! I mean, I can think of 40 billion reasons right off the top of my head why this is the case...
CACHE? bah! that's for wimps! ha.
mem is up to 512 megs in PS3 and xbox360.
thanks for telling me what NOT to buy.
by little longer you mean exponentially longer?
but this is the stupidest story. ever.
hey, i got a site! and i got advertisers on it! so maybe i'll jsut post this story about star trek and space and technology and saving the earth and play it off as news and HEY.... i'll make a few hundred bucks off it if i can get slashdot to fall for it.
SLASHDOT FAGS WHO APPROVED THIS: DIE.
