If you think about it, a movie or a game has the very thing that is sold for $18 on a cd included with it. why shell out 18 bucks for a cd with one decent song when for that same amount of money you could be watching a movie and hey look! a soundtrack by that artist you like! dvds give much more value for every dollar than an equivalently priced music cd.
This reminds me of a simpsons quote:
Homer: they're rebroadcasting major league baseball with implied moral consent not express writtem consent. Or so the legend goes...
Yarr, I be a software pirate!!
Ah, but what about centrifugal force. If his eyes were rolling very fast the resulting heat from the friction would destroy the eye socket and the eyes would simply roll out, no longer secured to the body.
Yeah people don't assume you're playing games until during a meeting you shout, "Yes! I beat the level! Woot!" People might be a bit suspicious then. However, if you're the average slashdot reader you've never heard of meetings before and probably work at a job where everyone else plays games all the time too.
Its a quite small target for an asteroid to hit and would be built out of incredibly strong materials. Anyway, I wouldn't get on anything that shared features with a M$ product.
Umm... that would be a nuclear powered vehicle. Only nuclear and very powerful conventional explosives make a mushroom cloud, and to reach that level of explosive power with hydrogen you'd have to compress it way more than the level necessary to provide a decent amount of fuel for a car. Also, there's something highly ironic about mispelling idiot.
While the Bill of Rights is part of the constitution, the constitution is not part of the bill of rights. for that reason, copyright cannot be the zeroeth amendment to the Bill of Rights. That and the rules of grammar and math.
you wouldn't need to write in assembly to develope for it. though the compilers for other languages would have to be written in assembly language at first.
by claiming this, you're just as bad as the slashbots. Apple has always marketed to graphic designers and 3d animators, a fairly small portion of computer users. Linux, on the other hand, has gotten inroads into the business and government desktop market and also still dominates the server market. Also, its price makes it more popular in developing countries. Apple doesn't have much room to expand in its current niche whereas Linux does.

movies haven't really improved. It's more likely that good movies are singled out more quickly by critics and people actually listen to movie critics.
Well, i'm spending a Sunday insulting crappy products. so there!
one decent justin timberlake song
uh huh right and I'll find that along with element 118, cold fusion and bigfoot, and non-buggy M$ products.
You know, the Romans once had a law that allowed you to kill anyone who was plotting to be king. I really wish the US had that law right now.
hell, what about an led for each bit of ram. imagine how many leds that would be.

considering how miserable k-mart is doing maybe they should be robbing people at knife point. Just like SCO is doing.
no, Carma powers flying cars Karmah on the other hand powers KDE.
no it's commented out! you insensitive clod!

No I think that what the attack was was installing ms-dos on SCO's computers. A fate not even SCO deserves!
I think it means the internet is going to be invaded by Serbia.

Don't you mean the LANish iniquisition. Oh yeah, also Florida taxes Monty Python jokes now. So pay up!!
Well, now we know Darl Mcbride is a Slashdot poster. I'll go assemble an angry mob of Linux users.
Well, that explains why he's working for M$
What happened was lack of consumer interest. people liked having an actual book instead of reading on some electronic gadget.
Don't be two hard on him. Maybe he developes for KDE and is used to putting unneeded K's in front of things.

Great, from now on KDE will be referred to as DE.
