There are no natural processes which affect climate. We all know what affects climate, is our use of incandescent light bulbs!
If only we'd all switch to mercury filled compact flouros, we'd reduce this nations energy consumption by almost 0.005%! Not only that, we'd increase the amount of mercury in our groundwater by over 200%! Mercury is good for you and helps build strong bones and teeth.
Also, we should junk our existing cars and build and purchase new ones which are marginally more efficient.
WHEN WILL WE LEARN?! THE ONLY SOLUTION TO CLIMATE PROBLEMS IS TO SPEND SPEND SPEND SPEND ON COMPANIES AL GORE HAS STOCK IN.
The early writings about Commander Keen, Doom or Quake weren't exactly Shakespear.
More recently, the back story and press releases for Far Cry were easily just as retarded, if not more so.
What you could have here, is a bunch of talented programmers who aren't blowing dough on slick, greasy marketing types. Or you could have nothing.
But I wonder when "geeks" are so hostile towards any tech company, game related especially, without that multi-million dollar veneer. It's not until an "indie" gets published by Sony does it become hip enough to look into (Guitar Hero, Katamari, etc)
That's pretty much exactly what I said. Our government is no more a reflection of our society. If we didn't want greedy warmongering pigs, we wouldn't keep voting for greedy warmongering pigs.
These people taking advantage of an ATM are morons. Banks are bigger than you. It's only proper to take money from people who are smaller and weaker.
I mean, you'd be surprised how much cash you could grab out of one of those salvation army santas donation jar while you're running. Haha! they forgot to put on lids and have armed guards at those things, so they're pretty much asking for you to take it.
Just because i dropped my wallet doesn't make it right for you to keep the cash in it. Or, if I handed the girl at 7-11 a $100 dollar bill instead of a single, it doesn't make it right for her to pocket the extra 99. If people knowingly took money that wasn't theirs, they are liable.
What's fascinating to me is why there's a discussion on this at all. People in the USA have no problem taking the cash out of my wallet before returning it, and the girl at 7-11 would pocket the $99 without blinking. If an ATM was handing out free money, people would stand there all day, and then somehow argue the fact that it's ok because - and I guess this is the general argument - this society is so fucking bent on greed and dollars that people should be excused from "inadvertent theft".
Basically, we're a society of criminals so it should be OK to steal a bit.
Thats why I use your AP to download porn. heheh you forgot to change the default password, it's all OK.
you seem pretty clueless about the history of OS/2. It never died, it was stillborn. And IBM did not compete with Microsoft, they partnered with them. Them MSFT hosed them. AND WE ALL CLAPPED AND CHEERED, because at that time, IBM was the "big eval monopolyist arr" and Microsoft was more of an apple-like do-no-wrong world hero.
I hate people who discuss corporations like pro rassling. I like IBM i think he;'s gonna pin MSFT unless balmer throws in a steel chair!
You'd think they'd be used to the rolling brownouts and shitty power conditions San Francisco (and the rest of california, hell the whole west coast) is becoming known for.
Even if the generators didnt start automatically, you'd think they'd get them online as fast as possible.
Someone's gonna be waist deep in da shit, netflix alone could claim 9.6 gajillion dollars worth of lost revenue per minute.
Simple. The only use I have for an iPod or Zune, is in my car. I would like to permanently install it there, and have it silently sync while it's in the driveway.
Brilliant! Your plan for a patent system without abuse and loopholes, is to "Work on a new bill that is easy to understand, and doesn't provide for loopholes. Have no exceptions."
Let me know when you finish writing it so I can bring it up this session.
Blackjack isn't faulty. They just keep adding more decks to make card counting impossible. If they catch you with some sort of electronic cheating device, being charged would be the best case scenario.
(They really do still work cheaters over in the back room..)
When I moved to the US and got married, PhD holders and professors were just behind me in line for green cards. Ahead of us, of course, are "RICH ASS CELBRITIES BLING BLING!" (ie; beckham didnt wait in no motherfuckin' immigration line. On a similar note, do they really think anyone will give a fuck about soccer now? I mean they bought gretzky, and it didn't make anyone give a fuck about hockey)
Anyways, H1-Bs are just for people who can't afford a real green card.
If google wants to expand the H1-B program, it's because they want janitors and landscapers to work below minimum wage (by playing contracted worker games), not talented programmers to invent the next big thing.
This isnt a virus, first off. It was a lame trojan. Like all others, cut-n-pasted by some 13 year old script kiddie, I mean just read the story and tell me it could be any other way.
So some blowhard self-important jackass "security researcher" harassed a little kid and made him cry.
What a fucking loser.
The REAL virus writers/blackhats, the ones infiltrating multi-billion dollar corps, are working for the russian mob.
That was simply a digicam CCD in a black box (taped for no light), and apparently the photocells randomly "fire" because of this same quantum effect. A little hashing and noodling on the computer, and you got yourself a little box of entropy.
I'm not going to google the link, but I made one about 5 years ago, after inadvertently smashing a cheap webcam.
The only problem is the "one click setup for morons" is windows only, and it is also now an activex control that automatically downloads if your cablemodem hasn't been set up right.
I run a linux router, and a couple times I've had to set my connection up over again when I changed my service packages. Once I didnt feel like calling, I plugged in a windows laptop to the cable modem, set it up, switched the cable back. The next time, i called and told someone my mac address.
There are much better things to complain about, re: comcast. How about the return of the "secret bandwidth cap", in an age where they promote the shit out of streaming multimedia?
Anyone who doesn't share your world view about some stupid fucking technical product is spreading FUD.
I say I'm not all that blown away by the iPhone - I'm a M$fT astroturfer spreading FUD!
I say I'm not planning to move to vista any time soon - I'm spreading more anti-m$ FUD!
I'm not ready to jump up and down about GPLv3 (yes, I do think it will hurt more than it will help), I'm spreading more FUD.
Differing opinions are not FUD. Quit using the fucking acronymn already, it's idiotic. If you want to have a discussion about the pros/cons of GPLv3, or about the lack of integrity in modern journalism, then fine. This is just whining because everybody doesnt share your world view - poor baby.
I think you're deeply mistaken about the present model. The present model is that a wireless company locks you into a contract by offering a subsidized phone in return for you signing a 2 year contract
Outside of the US this is not the case. You buy what you want, do what you want.
That's why Americans love the iPhone, and everyone else is crying foul.
Your post is the most elitist jackass tripe I've ever read.
You do know you can do both. You can live a full, rewarding life, and still kick ass at counterstrike, or have a level 70 wizard.
I can't help but assume that what you really mean when you say "I dont have a dedicated gaming TV" is, you prefer to spend your downtime veging out to dopey reality TV.
Some of us prefer to stay engaged 24/7. I don't "veg out", ever.

That "return to oz" piece of shit film that Disney put out, was that canon, or pure disney sequelitis, -- a la Cinderella part 2.
Al Gore already figured ALL OF THIS OUT.

FUCK THAT OLD JERK!
Go git em mods! Do to him what you did to me!
I hear he doesn't even care for the iPhone all that much, the fucking godamn nazi racist astroturfin' bastard!
No, judges do not enforce, police and prosecutors do the enforcing. But that would be criminal law, and this is civil.
The judges job is to interpret the law, as it is written, and based on past case histories.
I do agree with your sentiment though, too many judges are trying to go against precedent and legislate from the bench.
Angelina Jolie was born with a vestigal tail.
Seriously look it up on the internet!
Thanks for finding a way to blame america for this, you know, because an american company makes the technology.
Why don't you fucking assholes move slashdot to china? Oh, thats right, you could never run a website like this there, I forgot.

And not only allow sale to civilians, but release some sort of development environment/emulator.
Unless the hackers of the world adopt this thing, it'll never be anything more than a simplistic fixed-function device.
Simple. The only use I have for an iPod or Zune, is in my car. I would like to permanently install it there, and have it silently sync while it's in the driveway.

Business makes decision that a bunch of slashdotters don't like.. News at 11.
There's a lot to be learned form their reasons to abandon Open Office, but nah, lets just call them names and plug our ears.

Now, how about some more iPhone ads?
If Microsoft did something like this there'd be a geek jihad.
I'm sure linux printing support will just leap and bound ahead now.
