You have to use a real email address because they will send you a registration code to use for Opera 8. It will register it as the full ad-free version. Enjoy!
First there's a discussion Then there's a troll Then there's a flamewar Then somebody goes and posts that damn Ghandi quote thinking they're the first ones to ever do it
When some CEO gets so arrogant they can act like that. In this case, it is a bunch of companies acting in collusion.
This word, I do not think it means what you think it means. Try here. I know here at slashdot you can say whatever the hell you want and it'll get modded up if it's inflammatory enough, but please don't add to ignorance.
Don't like Verizon's service? Think their CEO is a jackass? Their commercials annoy the hell out of you? DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM VERIZON!!!!!!! See, you've just voted with your wallet, that's the most powerful vote you have. They listen to that.
Online subscribers pay $84/year, whereas print subscribers are still paying $356
The WSJ only costs you $356 if you buy it from the newstand every day. Don't do that. In fact, you can get a year of the print AND online versions for only slightly more than the online versions. Check here for a $99/year deal. (referral-free link).
What I like about the WSJ is that, unlike in most papers where fact and opinion are combined through out all the news articles, the WSJ is pretty much straight facts in the articles and the opinions are relegated to the Opinion section. Don't get me wrong, I like reading the Opinion section but when it comes to news reporting, just the facts ma'am!
The reason the WSJ can charge so much for their paper and charge people for online content is because the vast majority of the subscribers are able to deduct the price from their taxes as a business expense.
As a new mac user that just recently switched from the windows world, I have a question for the mac people....
It's well settled in the windows world that an upgrade of the os is only done as a last resort - the first option is backing up, doing a clean install, then importing all your data. Is the same true for OSX, or will just upgrading tiger be the same as a clean install?
I finally have everything tweaked on my mini and would hate to have to reinstall all my apps etc. TIA.
I ordered a mini last friday, so I just called and spoke to the Apple CSR. She said any mac purchased before the announcement won't ship with Tiger and she told me about the up to date program ($9.95) upgrade. HOWEVER, it did not take any arm twisting to get her to take $10 off the purchase price of the mini so it's like I'm getting Tiger for free. Give it a try...
I tell myself, "self, fill out the rebate info and do all the work BEFORE you open the box of your new little gadget"...and I do. Works every time. Forces me to do the work before I get my reward.

Ever stop to think that maybe the editors are the ones that are supposed to be laughing, not us?
If it were a Republican, it would have been "Evil Republican Wants to Tax Internet Downloads", but since it's a Democrat that is proposing this moronic bit of legislation,Slashdotters now say, "well the party doesn't really matter, let's just think of it as the Government wanting to tax downloads".
I was a Dos/Windows (then to some extent Linux) user my entire life. I now am the proud owner of a Mac Mini. I haven't booted into windows once since I got it. I got sick of all the viruses/spyware/malware in windows and the fact that , althought windows gets the job done, it's not enjoyable to use.
I would have NEVER bought a mac had they not released the mini because I was not about to pay a premium for hardware when I don't do any graphic design work or play many games. So all these companies that are trying to release a Mac Mini killer are barking up the wrong tree when they just release a traditional pc with a small footprint. It's the operating system, stupid! I don't have an answer for them because I just don't think linux is ready for prime time yet, but I am evidence that people are ready for an alternative, but it has nothing to do with the fact that our computers are too big now. If apple had released a $499 machine that was the size of a G5 tower, I would have bought that as well.
I explained this phenomenon to Temple University prof John Allen Paulos, an expert in applying mathematical theory to everyday life. His conclusion: it's entirely possible that nothing at all is amiss with the shuffle function
Didn't people learn anything from all those gangster movies?
Totally! When Michael when through Fredo's server logs and found out that he was hosting torrents against the family's wishes, I knew that eventually Michael would have to whack his own brother.

This isn't a dupe . The first article was about swimming across, this article is about swimming back.

Now all they have to do is release modern games for OSX and we're set!

The slashdot article??
Is the iPod Shuffle Playing Favorites?
and
Apple denies it, of course
Enough with the inflammatory headlines!
I mean it's on the main page
You are abound by the terms of a contract even if you fail to read the terms.
Hill v. Gateway 2000, Inc., 105 F.3d 1147 (7th Cir.)cert. denied, 522 U.S. 808 (1997)
ProCD, Inc. v. Zeidenberg, 86 F.3d 1447 (7th Cir. 1996)
I mean, if you could just get out of a contract by claiming that you didn't read the thing they wouldn't be worth the paper they're printed on.
I think the patent office may have something to say about this; Steve Jobs has had an Artificial-Reality Helmet for some years now.
You could always go outside and talk to some girls.
while my "real" email account i've recieved 1566 since august of 2003, only 10 of those being spam
So you're telling us you're not a comcast subscriber?
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
