He didn't say it was easy, just that it's not fun, possibly because of the repetitiveness. You can disagree, but it doesn't make you objectively correct.
Your second sentence is correct. But your first isn't. Check out my post history, and keep in mind that not everyone who disagrees with you or even distrusts your unsubstantiated claims is a troll.
Thanks for finally admitting that you did make it all up. Or at least that you don't understand that your "source" is the furthest thing from a law or even legal precedent, which is what you claimed previously. Moreover, requiring ID to vote has been upheld as legal in many jurisdictions and is likely to be upheld in many more. There is nothing inherently wrong with this, especially since those jurisdictions tend to provide ID services for free, and often even via mobile vans that go to their houses. You know, to make sure that this huge chunk of poor people who allegedly cannot afford ID are provided it for free and with no personal inconvenience. Assuming they are legal citizens with legal right to vote, that is. That's still a requirement, you know?
I suspect you have a more significant claim that you're not presenting very clearly, or perhaps I'm just not getting it. But if it makes a difference, I want Acorn broken up and the perpetrators of registration and/or voter fraud jailed. This warning shot, followed by much more stringent voter regulation, including ID requirements, should do well to meet what I consider the needs for a fair vote.
Voter registration is a precursor to voting. Fraudulent registration is fraud, if not voter fraud. And is certainly makes voter fraud easier and more likely. Whatever their intentions at Acorn, this is illegal and must be stopped. Get my head "screwed on straight?" How about you get a clue.
Easy. Just post. Having moderated in a thread doesn't prevent you from posting in it, but posting in a thread you moderated in does undo the moderation (and wastes the mod points.)
Aren't you that guy who bought a low-id slashdot account on ebay because you thought it would lend you credibility in your posts?
How's that working out for you? Also, BTW, jailbreaking comes from chroot jail which is a *nix reference. Maybe you could buy a clue about *nix on ebay?
If you buy a Kindle, you are buying into a scheme where you can buy media from only one vendor, and your media is not likely to ever be readable anywhere but on your Kindle.
This is false. Kindle accepts all kinds of data formats, including simple text, and books in those formats are available from many vendors. Some even free, such as Project Gutenburg. Also, obviously, these text and other standard-format docs work on most e-reader devices.
I'mm not sure MOST people DON'T want to scale the entire page. Most of the time I use zooms I just want the text bigger, and the pictures and all that too. Usually it's either because I want to read from further away, or I can't see the text well enough for whatever reason.
Seriously, do you have any info on who zooms in or out how often and why? I sure don't, but my anecdote appears to be exactly in opposition to yours, so like matter and anti-matter, I'm afraid we collide and produce a net nothingness:(
I tried the first Chrome release and was duly impressed, especially for script speeds on "web 2.0" apps. But no adblock (and less importantlly, TabMix plus tab options) is a deal breaker. When Chrome does adblock I'm there.
Note that Adblock really doesn't impact google's ads -- it primarily blocks graphical/flash crap ads, at least using the filtersets I subscribe to, so it wouldn't hurt google to allow it, and might even help them (absent other flashing "punch the monkey" and "abort the fetus" ads google's often-relevant text ads tend to stand out more.)
Slashdot Mirror
What? Forced? You neither have to purchase anything from Best Buy nor work there.
It's not about "negotiation between equals" -- simply don't work (or buy from) there if you don't like the terms.

Yeah, purity. Now that's what makes a game fun. That's why I only play pong. Everything else is just impure crap.
I think he means fast as in player movement speed.
Games that aren't like the ones you like are immature and poorly-developed, got it.
If you're playing Bioshock you can rest assured that those fears will be completely unfounded.
Not mandatory. Not obligatory. Played out.
Let's run this shit into the ground!
Oh cool, a google search with a bunch of blogs in the result. Awesome! That changes everything!

There's no such law; you just made all that up. Why do you so badly want to defend the fraudsters at Acorn?
Voter registration is a precursor to voting. Fraudulent registration is fraud, if not voter fraud. And is certainly makes voter fraud easier and more likely. Whatever their intentions at Acorn, this is illegal and must be stopped. Get my head "screwed on straight?" How about you get a clue.
While it is a bad idea, that's not for the reason you listed. No one cares about superstitious idiots.
Haha mfh you are such a sad weirdo. Do you really think anyone else gives a shit about slashdot id?
Easy. Just post. Having moderated in a thread doesn't prevent you from posting in it, but posting in a thread you moderated in does undo the moderation (and wastes the mod points.)

You really couldn't be more wrong.
OK, I'll bite: how is "bogus" (fraudulent) voter registrations not voter fraud?
Those engy ideas are great; please send them to Valve!
Wait, did you just admit that you paid for your userid? Wow, that would be pretty funny if it weren't so sad.
That's gross; you're gross.

What if it only blocks graphical and flash ads? Is it google's fault if they're the only one providing relevant, non-intrusive text ads?
It could be. And it is indeed at least somewhat true (I can't tell you how I know that, sorry!)

Do it google! Let us bock ads and mix tabs!
