Yeah, because whatever he has done with Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg is definitely on the same level as Hitler, Stalin and Khomeini... Sometimes I think peoples perspectives are screwed here on Slashdot, and its posts like yours that affirm that thought.
Q. You are in a room with Hitler and Zuckerberg. You have a gun with two bullets. What do you do?
"Comcast has been resisting federal regulators' efforts to tear down some of those walls, arguing that those efforts are unnecessary because NBC Universal accounts for about 10 percent of television viewing in the US and less than 10 percent of US box office revenue — and is therefore too small to dictate how the industry will develop."
This is one of the goddamdest disingenuous statements I've heard in a while. If a Comcast spokesperson said this to my face, I would have to be held back from beating the crap out of them.
Well, if it's made out of lead, you should be safe, right? Desks are amazing. They also protect you from tornadoes. Of course that was back in the 60s. These new wimpy ones will crumple if you drop your pencil.
Hell with that. I'm getting in the old Frigidaire.
It cost the terrorists way more than $4200 to pull this off. Many of them died trying to pull off attacks like this. Same with the 9/11 attacks. Many of them paid for the attacks with their lives....
I don't get it. Apple has rules for what you can sell in their store. Big deal. So does Walmart. So does Target. So does Home Depot. I don't have to shop at those stores if I don't want to.
Do you really need it explained to you that you don't have the option of buying an app elsewhere if Apple doesn't put it in their store?
If you can't get the tools you need at Home Depot, you're free to try Walmart. What if Home Depot said "you can sell your tools here, our way, or not at all." That's why it's anti-competitive.
Do you get it now?
No, still not clear. Lowe's sells a line of tools which can be found only at Lowe's. I can find equivalent tools at Home Depot. Different name, same tool. Blue hammer, orange hammer.
Look at the anti-competitive ways that Apple's App Store imposes.

Your Honor, my client was irreparably harmed by a Comcast customer's emails and web traffic, which they now have the technical abiltiy to monitor and are in fact doing so on a regular basis to their financial advantage. Comcast's failure to use this technology to stop the harm done to my client is the basis for our claim of one bazillion dollars in damages.
Please in the future stick to the style manual: any headline about a tablet has to include the words "iPad killer". See the previous memo about mp3 players.
As I recall, the reason the boosters were not a safer one-piece design was because Hatch had to have Morton Thiokol in Utah get the contract. MT could only build them in segments using the questionable O-ring joints because a whole booster could not be shipped from Utah to Florida.
Seven people would still be alive today if Hatch had kept his sanctimonious oinky nose out of NASA's engineering process.
But honestly Canal Plus, the web is considered “public domain” and you should be happy we just didn’t “lift” your whole hockey game and put some other team's name on it!

That is not a slip of the keyboard or a typo or a mistake brought on by fatigue or overwork. That is a basic mindset. There is no argument or essay long enough that could make it otherwise.
Yeahhh the first time one of the chinese jets goes down for "inferior parts", there goes their ability to sell them to anyone outside the country. They need to get it right the first time, or they're going to build a whole lot of junk that airlines won't buy and customers won't fly on.
There are a lot of aircraft of questionable safety flying these days as it is. As I recall, flights which go between two airports not located in countries which have high inspection standards can be on planes which don't have to meet many standards at all. There was a recent crash (Indian Ocean?), where the passengers got on a plane in Paris, then changed planes on an island nation onto a much less safe plane which proved the point by crashing.

A. Shoot Zuckerberg twice.
So people in jail are all innocent ?
Not all people in jail are innocent, but all people who are not now in jail are potentially guilty.
Depends on how hard the cop who pulls you over wants you to be guilty.

In Minnesota an in classroom system called DISCOURSE had this in the early 90's -- should be an easy patent to knock down.
Yeah. Easy if you have more and better lawyers than Microsoft.
"This theory may even be testable."
To be a theory it must be testable.
"go fever"? So this arsenic-metabolising bug is the O-ring of biology?
Its only illegal to posses them for their intended use, it is fine to have them on display by the bedside as a novelty item.
So all you have to do is show the officers your Slashdot ID and you are free to go.
Grad studies are worse than any kind of death.
I experienced both.
See my sig. Free download. Happy ending.

What do you think she'd be doing with her life? Truck stop waitress?
No, truck stop waitresses have to have personality and organizational skills and some sense of reality.

Bush on Facebook? I feel like I am a character trapped in an Orwell novel still in its first revision.

Previous poster is correct. It is not fair use, and Righthaven will win. The judge will award them all of the non-profit's profits for the next year.
