In other words, get over it and find something useful to do with your protests. If you don't like how they do it, make a competing product.
No thanks. I'd rather people were fully aware of the potential drawbacks to what they might buy, and as a result choose the best product - not the one with the best hidden shitty drawbacks.
As a neat aside, the company might have to make a better product. Everyone wins.
I wonder how you would react if the House of Commons were to say that the e-mails are undeniable proof that global warming is a scam. Would you suddenly change positions? Or would you write them off just like the people on the other side of the debate will..
Get back to me when an organisation as respected as the British House of Commons says that.
Here's another thought: If you don't learn, it's not the professors problem. If I don't work hard, I don't get to bitch at my boss that my job wasn't interesting enough. I get fired.
University should be where kids meet the real world and start acting like adults, or fail.
This random gentlemen on the internet claims that composed would be the correct word in this case (comprised would be a synonym for including, where I was imagining CBS to be clearly made up only of horses).
And he has an entire book published just to explain why everyone is making errors when writing English, so I'm inclined to trust someone with that much dedication.
I'd just like to point out that high-pitched noises, often caused by the flyback transformers found in things such as CRT monitors, are a far cry from detecting x-rays and radio waves. Why? Because one is just a sound and we have ears to feel that; that some people cannot hear the sound while others can is related to the auditive acuity of the person, nothing more.
I also can hear the noise caused by CRTs, and oddly enough also in some solid-state electronics. I've also got low level tinnitus When I asked a hearing specialist about it, he suggested that it might be related, with some noise or EM frequency stimulating a poorly sheafed auditory nerve.
This guy is still nuts though. Why do we care what the man thinks is causing his 'allergy'? Get him some real help, in the form of mental health and housing support.
Is anyone else's brain tripping on this as badly as mine? I Am Not A "Has in place an agreement"? What the hell is a "has in place an agreement", and why would your lack of being one make you unqualified?
Actually, it isn't. If you go to the URL of the friends list, you can view anybody's friends list.
Interesting? -1, Wrong. If your profile is not set to be searchable, that information is unavailable.
Coincidentally, I've taken five minutes to set my privacy settings correctly and have only praise for the increased granularity now available. What percentage of those complaining here have ever used facebook anyway?
Over here in sleepy old Adelaide, South Australia, our Westfield guards have been known to cause deaths Security guard charged over elderly man's death. Walking into a mall with your bike helmet accidentally left on will quickly atttract a number of tall, angry men.
A mask would be asking for way more trouble than it would be worth, as it'd be taken as practically a declaration of intent to cause trouble.
As soon as it starts getting tough, we'll notice that we have more uranium than we can ever use. Ten years later, we'll be self sufficient for energy again.
FSM, forgive me for responding to the troll, but s/he did get modded to +5.
Then you don't gamble. Or purchase a mobile phone, get electricity connected, or find it easy to rent a house. The 100 point system has a wide range of documents to help, but it sucks when you're trying to get started. Young people just deal with it.
perhaps you should try http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/. its a radio station that doesnt play too much (any?) of the top 40
Triple J does play a little of the top 40 - before it's in the top 40. As a government funded indie broadcaster, they sink a huge amount of their funding into finding and nurturing new music and musicians. One of the few times I'm truly proud of something my country funds.
Don't you think they would trumpet their use of saw dust if they in fact used it? I can't find any evidence on the web of your claim, although I am willing to stand corrected.
I'm guessing that's what pre-consumer waste paper refers to; waste products generated within the production of paper and used without ever being sold as paper.
It may or may not ever work, but if it's cheap enough then I might consider it. Steam games are not cheap enough to warrant this risk.
The award winning Audio-surf was recently sold at a cost of $2 on Steam for a week. I grabbed it, and it's a cool little game. Not everything on Steam is a full traditional game; it has a wide range.
More RAM to enable larger texture files? I don't think so. Come on, surely you remember the Expansion Pack released for the N64? Shipped with Donkey Kong 64 IIRC.
Slashdot Mirror
I work for an Australian CCTV wholesaler and we're already getting emails offering buying leads for alternative manufacturers (Pixim for instance)
Yay for a politically stable country with a dose of common sense.

Investigating prospective rental properties? Identifying the terrain and surroundings before travelling to a new location?

What kind of flamewar is this? And more importantly, how do we tell who's winning?
When I was young and dumb I drove a big 1980's ford long after it's power steering (and much else) failed. Awesome workout, PITA to park.
As an Australian, can I please just say "NOT FUNNY".

These informative mods always make me imagine a moderator sitting stunned behind a monitor: "Of course! CBS could be composed of horses!

Illegal to sell or import. Unlike the USA, our "rating" system is an undisguised censorship system.
Modern geek proverb: anything difficult to learn is worth knowing.
And parole is determined based on rehabilitation, not crime. So it serves two purposes.
