Currently, in Australia, you can get a digital set top box at Kmart for $50 or less. They only decode standard definition, but then again the TVs that these will be plugged into won't show HD anyway.
Thanks to speed cameras, you can drive as recklessly or irresponsibly as you want provided you do so below the speed limit, as there are very few traffic police left on the roads. And if you get fake plates, or don't register your car, you can do those at any speed you want, because the speed cameras can't touch you. But it isn't even that. A speed camera does nothing to stop a car doing 200 in a 40 zone crashing into a group of nuns carrying puppies. A real police officer would. Getting a ticket 2 weeks after the fact means nothing when puppies are dead.
While I'm not disagreeing with you, I think it should be pointed out that a missing boot.ini is considered pretty much bricked to anyone who doesn't read Slashdot.
IE7 Might not be the best browser out there, but it is leaps and bounds better then IE6. I think the real disappointment here is that they aren't going to develop it any further and fix the bugs. There is room enough for IE7, and if they fixed their crap I wouldn't have a problem using it.
Yeah but those 20,000 insurgent deaths have only served to solidify opposition to American occupation in Iraq, 3800 American deaths has really only polarized opinions at home at best, and at worst swung a large chunk of the nation against the occupation.
That fact is that with every tragic death, no matter which side, Americas job gets harder.
Instead, they decide to take on the most powerful military in the world. Even on our bad days, that's not such a good idea. Really? Because unfortunately it looks like they are doing pretty good so far.
I have a honest question, and I haven't been able to find a decent answer anywhere. Why, exactly, are our countries armies over there fighting in Iraq? Why did American even start this war?
I have yet to hear a politician actually say why, and I really can't seem to get a straight answer out of anyone.
Oh yeah, because the reason I logged into my webmail is to see the hightlights of the day and how much storage I'm using. Hold on... NO. I logged in to read my email! why do I have to click through that shitty page each and every time I want to read my mail?
Wow are you ever an ethnocentric prick. I guarantee you there is a significant percentage of Slashdot users who aren't even in a country that has Wal-mart stores.
Reminds me of this guy.
That's all well and good but after 15 years and your done wouldn't you think to yourself... Damn I should have made a full scale replica.
I was with you right up until you claimed socialism was a scam.
Why do Americans fear that word so much? What happened to make you equate socialism with communism?

Why on earth would you need a subsidy?
I'm not sure that your understanding of "opposite" is the same as the rest of the worlds.
Isn't being lasered to death pretty much being burnt alive?
How is this weapon even legal?
Seems a little arbitrary...

No I have to call bullshit on that.

Perhaps you should take a look at your Indian reservations.

Hey! We think conservative nutjobs are funny too.
So that is three things, thank you very much.

Yeah but steam does most of that already, and it is free.
No, they only paid him to say "boop" once, then they doubled it up on the soundtrack... Cheap bastards.
In Australia we have this amazing system where mobile phone numbers start with different numbers to land line numbers.

How is everyone missing the point of the parent post?
If you are 17 you won't have an ID because you aren't old enough to have one.
Good thing no one uses this esoteric "FLAC" format.

Quick Question:
Do American power points have switches on them? Or are they just live the whole time?

Did you miss the memo or something?
Good for you. I keep 6 PSP games on my memory stick at all times, plus a heap of homebrew and C64 Roms.
