You are correct sir, this is exactly the amount you'd spend, in addition it's about $17 a month for subscription rather than the $24 blackhawk mentioned. you *can* spend a lot more on games here as they do have their prices arbitrarily jacked up (console games are routinely sold in my town for $110-$120... over $100 USD) but with some careful shopping and international ordering you can avoid this ridiculous price fixing without too much effort, big W for example sell most new releases for around $80 bucks and steam generally lists US pricing for PC games. And as the parent mentioned, you can just buy wow straight from blizzard for $80 USD
it actually explains what a browser is and does not actually uninstall ie, it just removes it from the shortcuts bar. to be honest i don't see the down side, user clicks a blatantly obvious browser picker screen to choose their browser, which includes the friendly old ie "e for internet" logo, and microsoft get's one less place to abuse their monopoly.
I *love* when the close button is right in the corner, it makes it ridiculously easy to hit the close button when you want to. when maximising/minimising i just double click the title bar, which is big and easy to hit, and it works on linux and windows so no re-learning
Good idea, however a vast majority of the pirates i know couldn't give a crap about DRM or whether there's a good excuse to make piracy somehow morally justifiable. They just want free shit, so they download games. IMHO if every pirate who justifies there piracy with some excuse stopped pirating i don't think it would make a noticeable difference at all in the number of copies downloaded.
meh, i'd pirate it if i could be bothered (would probably involve someone burning me a copy), after paper mario's suckfest i'm guessing i'd prolly throw it in for 5 hours max. pity away.
Heh, i'd give it a couple months to fail before saying jobs made a mistake, maybe there's hordes of ravening fans dreaming of a slightly larger iphone.
It's a device to do everything an iphone does (except voice calls) with more screen real estate. if you use your iphone for a lot of stuff other than voice calls this will probably be pretty cool.
theoretically you could use the canvas tag and javascript, but since ie doesn't support the tag it it's unlikely to gain traction in the short term. youtube *has* a html5 video version *now*
Bundling IE and WMP et al with windows is anti-competitive in that it leverages their windows monopoly to promote market share in other areas, you must admit that some percentage of users will choose IE simply because it's already there.
Whether or not forcing users to pick a browser to download via a separate app (ballot or whatever) is making it harder or less useful for new users is a good idea is a completely separate issue.
To be completely honest i can't see how it's hard for a user to click on say a desktop icon labeled "Internet" click on a browser from a list of 5 or so popular ones, have the OS download and install it and be on their way, but maybe i'm giving users too much credit.
you are pointing out a problem with the searching and filtering, not a problem with the ease of creation. It's like saying there are too many people in the world, lets make sex more difficult... i'm not sure where i'm going with that.
considering that the entire australian armed forces are about 25000 strong and the australian population is 21 million, along with the fact that it is still legal to own fire arms (just not pumpaction, semi automatic or automatic weapons) i don't think if it went that far the public would be ill equipped to rebel, not that i think that would be a useful option to have.
This may or may not help, take a chunk of the code affected by the addition of the new code you're trying to build and rewrite it as part of the updates and don't tell anyone. Probly do this first so you have the added motivation to not tell anyone you've done it. you'll cop flack in the short term but just say this code you're fixing is such a house of cards that you have to be very careful around it while adding your new stuff, and in the long run you'll be making your job easier and quicker. Pretty much i've found this is the BEST method of getting old code re-written (besides having it being so obviously slow that it's almost useless)

that's the second screen, the first can be seen here: European Internet Explorer users to get 'Browser Choice' screen from Windows Update
I fail to see how over-managing a bad programmer somehow magically makes their code good

so you're saying that it's actually your car's fault that the river isn't a road?
It's a lot more ominous if you assume that they're all from the same botnet, and i would almost guarantee that at least a few of them are.

Yeah, also make sure you're getting paid for supporting it tho.
his name is pizzaanalogyguy...
it may be faster but the last time i used it oprah web browser gave me cancer. ymmv.

wouldn't that be in evidence just as much with the second generation as the tenth?
yeah, i want a monkey butler.
it's 25000 not 250000, and i'd say it'd be substantially less once they order the army to start shooting civilians.
If you want a challenge you're supposed to be doing hard modes at 80, leveling in wow has *never* been hard.

It's important because you are the exception not the rule
