The idea of using CSS is that the content is kept separate from the presentation. This actually makes it easier to show you what you want when you want to see it. You can use your own stylesheet, for example, to cut out sections you don't want to see (assuming the content has been marked up properly).
This also means that users with specific requirements (partially sighted, for example) can access content in the way that is most convenient for them (using a screen reader, or just applying a high contrast stylesheet) without having to have a specially designed site.
Personally, I think widespread CSS adoption will make the web a lot more accessible and customisable.
We, the audience, will have control of how information is displayed.
From the article: "Robot" refers to any machine that operates automatically to perform tasks in a human-like way, often replacing the human workers who did the job previously. I guess a dishwasher wouldn't be covered by this because of the way it performs it's job.
CD-WOW were not ordered to increase their price, they were ordered to stop importing from Asia. They have increased their prices as a consequence of the higher cost of buying their stock from Europe.
The article states that 1000 people were interviewed by telephone.
I would be interested to see how these people were chosen. Chances are they were pulled from a database of people who didn't check a box on a form at some time saying they didn't want to be contacted by telephone for marketing/research.
These people already have little interest in their privacy.
Ah, after a bit of research in the FAQs, I've found the answer to my question:
Will I still be able to play games once Linux is on my hard disk?
That depends on the solution you choose. If you run Linux through the XBE bootloader on an Xbox with a modchip, there's a dual-boot solution.
There are also "Live CD's" that make it possible possible to run Linux from a CD without having your hard disk modified at all.
If you use the replacement ROM method, you would have to install both ROMs in parallel to be still able to run games.
Sorry if this is a really obvious question, but can you still play XBOX games if you install Linux on the hard disk?
As I understand it the hard disk is used by games as a swap file, and all your save games are kept on it.
Can you upgrade your hard disk and keep all your XBOX savegames, and have Linux too?
Why not buy 5 million xboxes?
With the money Microsoft lose on each box that will sure teach them a lesson.
(yes, I realise that it would be better not to buy them at all...)

What kind of effect will procedural textures have on this? Surely a procedural algorithm would be smaller (in code at least)?

You've watched it. You can't unwatch it.
That was the Preview Release 1. This is the Release Candidate 1.

Why not get drunk before you play? This will make your aiming more "realistic".
Good old rock. Nothing beats rock.
