He takes a little poke at Yahoo, saying "I end this blog post with a mention of a fact I've brought up before: Yahoo Mail's slick new interface has been in beta forever...by which I mean since September of 2005. And it remains so." Interesting. I guess he forgot Gmail is still beta. Or maybe he didn't read the Gmail logo!
So just rate it yourself. You can rate recommendations and they go away. Since you own it, ostensibly you already know how you would rate it, right? Or do you just buy DVDs and not watch them, in which case your problem has no solution until you watch them?
But i sincerely doubt Bush had any direct effect on this law. You might want to start by being mad at Orrin Hatch and working your way through the rest of the U.S. Congress if you're going to complain.
I had an MSDNAA key through my computer science department. I installed it one too many times due to some hard drive failures, and the authentication system on the install blocked me. I called the number it said to. Half an hour later, I told someone in India I had not installed it on multiple machines and I was given a new key and was officially free and clear to use Windows XP at will. Make the effort to make a phone call if it happens to you and you probably won't have to panic going "they want me to buy four copies oh no!!"
I know what I want from an operating system, and I don't think I'm that different from most people. I want my operating system to be fast, stable, secure and to work with open standards and have an open set of application programming interfaces (APIs), so I can be sure that I'll have many software program choices.

Well, he's partially right, if you paraphrase the quote properly.
I know what I want from an operating system, and I don't think I'm that different from most people. I want my operating system to... work....
Hey! Now he's got the same opinion of Joe Everyuser! THEY WANT IT TO WORK!!! No average user wants to use APIs. No average user cares about DRM as long as the machine works. Please, stick to the facts: I'm Linux kicks ass for your average developer. But not to your average middle-age "maybe I should join the modern era" computer user.
Well, let's see. The teachers don't know the stuff they're teaching? Could that be because 99.9% of the people that DO know their stuff are off at high-paying jobs rather than educating? Most teachers are there because either 1) they're really passionate for it or 2) they couldn't find anything better. Passion alone is a shoddy substitute for knowledge. But no one wants to be the one to pay teachers more. Citizens? Don't want more taxes. Corporations? Don't want to cut into the bottom line and help. And soon we'll be screwed.
I don't see how most games could make a good movie. The joy of them, no matter how good the story, is that you're making that story unfold. Most games have very few dramatic devices, and are more of a challenge of skills or time investment that reward you with short movies/dramas. The problem is filling in all those moments of GAMEPLAY with drama: how do you do that? You can't. You either take a lot of creative license with the game (and thus base it much more loosely on the game) or end up with a lot of dreadfully boring action.
I think you could use a game as a basis for a story - maybe - but you could never straight up make a good movie from the game. Very few games have enough story to make a movie from without altering it, in my opinion.

On the other hand, one usually looks into these sort of things before one purchases one's hardware.
No, normal people DON'T. That's the point!! Joe Blow does not want to look things up. He wants the card to just work with the OS.
Do I get my MacHall nickel now?
Um, here's some basic math for ya:
.18 to .13 is a 27.8% drop.
.13 to .1(0, lets pretend) is a 23.1% drop.

therefore, this is a significant change.
