And "proper statistical studies" show that for every person who joins the PTV, writes the FCC, or writes to his congresscritter, 100 don't because they are too lazy or bored or busy. So they see 10million complaints and assume(rightly or wrongly) that ~100Million are or could be offended.
Do I care if...
I'm censored from talking about breasts, so breast cancer and cooking chicken can no longer be talked about on TV?
Public radio is censored for talking about homosexuality?
People can't talk about sex education on TV?
AND that is why Howard stern was fined and Oprah wasn't. Is it a potentially slippery slope sure, but the line has been drawn between titilation and education and needs to be enforced. If PBS shows an educational video graphically detailing and demonstrating safe condom use I'll change the channel, if CBS shows debbie does dallas, I'll complain.
Ok, just because they aren't to the left of communist china and socialist sweden, doesn't mean they aren't left of center in the US. Left, right and center are relative labels, NOT absolute.
The Herbal Essence Commercial is a 30 second spot having a woman recieving a "fully organic experience" from her shampoo, complete with a screaming organsim. Now, Explain a screaming organsim to a 5 year old.
I'm not even sure I want to know HOW it's done. I just want to know why it's useful. I want to know how to apply it to something productive.
If that is/was your attitude, then you didn't belong in the class. You should have dropped it, in fact, I'm not certain you belong on slashdot. IN FACT, you are the sort of person being talked about in the article.
Being able to spend 10 minutes on a math or logic problem builds the mental pathways... THAT is why it is important. Knowing how it's done, at that level is more important than getting the right answer. You don't have to know why 2+2=4, you do need to know why f(4)=7 and f(7)=4.
ODD, on slashdot, there exist at least 4 registered posters(counting myself) that I am aware of that meet your criteria, therefore I must conclude that you cannot count to four.

Well, 3 years and counting. I'll get back to you in 20 or so years... Not that I can prove anything for my wife, but I'm faithful, have no reason to doubt her faithfulness, and we were definitely both virgins when married(27 me 23 her) so no reason to expect a change in the pattern. And since neither of us does illegal IV drugs or works as a doctor/nurse, the odds of us contracting AIDS are virtually nil.
Welcome the the world of MMORPGs.. Everyone with staying power does it.
EITHER A) buy each new expansion for $19-$29 OR B) wait 18 months or so and buy the special combo pack with the original+ last 3(6/9/etc)expansions for $19-$25. C) get a free "buddy" key that includes all current expansions to "share" with a "friend"
Playing on the bleeding edge is expensive. Waiting a while is cheaper... Eventually Doom3 will be $19.95 and I'll buy it. Or it will be included free with my subscription to PCGamer.
And it was a hardware issue. Your PCMCIA Modem needed to be resynced. There are ways(under certain versions of windows) to do this, but a soft reboot is the most efficient way.
YES PCMCIA IS SUPPOSED TO BE HOT PLUGGABLE AND SWAPPABLE, IT ISN'T ALWAYS, DEAL WITH IT.
Or simply by asking someone(anyone) to take a look at it and help you figure it out, before they even get to the code, miraculously the problem becomes clear.
"The Internet" should be capitalized so that it is not confused with internets, which make up the Internet. There are several public internets(AOL/Timewarner, Earthlink, (D)ARPAnet, various of the.edus, etc) Thank you for your time and for putting up with my pedantry.
Thanks, I got the impression that traffic rules(like signs) trickled down from the federal level... That way(for example) a legal stop at a stop sign is the same everywhere(but new jersey and California).
I was thinking that an MIT or CalTech degree was pretty generic where a RIT or WPI Degree might actually mean something to someone who knows something.
Contrary to popular belief, puppet or front companies aren't seperate entities and if the tie is as blatant as you suggest, you have no protection from a countersuit.
And you can tell a good program from a bad, by looking at the course catalog. Calculus, discrete math, algorithms, etc are part of a CS degree and Process improvement, scheduling and budgeting are part of an SE course, Neither should require web programming or visual basic(although those might be electives)
And while stoning sounds extreme, we are talking about a different time and place.. Of course this is slashdot, and FAT LAZY DRUNK SON, living in parent's basement being a burden is a cliche.

You sir, just returned to my friend list.
OH, so you're blaming windows for the crappy onboard modem. Try blaming the laptop manufacturer.

And how do you confirm where the disks are manufactured at?
Just like many comodity items CDs are only produced in one or 2 places and those are virtually unrelated to the brand on the spindle.

Six keys. there was the sword button. You remember the draw/put away button.

Well, it's obvious that you learned nothing in college, since you used "Toni Morrison", "literature", and "insight" in the same paragraph.
DO you have a code link?? or are you just making stuff up?
For example text posts in binary messages(faqs, 0files, etc) were available from deja, no more from google.

Obviously the context indicates an adult SON who is a burden on his parents and community by being FAT, LAZY, and DRUNK
