What I don't understand is why the story inlcudes the links to the sites advertised in the spam. I understand that you provide links etc when you submit a story but this is going too far
The average consumer is never going to buy a bio-degradable disc if its three times the price of a regular one. The only way to make them popular in the market is have the software and music companies use them and eventually it will trickle down to everybody.
What's the deal? Only 4 posts out of the 300 or so have been moderated 4 and above. Are there less moderators around or is this topic just not interesting enough? If its the latter, it should not have been posted in the first place.
If he's going to hack websites, even with the best intentions he's still breaking the law. It seems it would be better for him to work at a security firm (or open his own) and at least get paid for all his troubles. Then he'll be rich and he'll be praised for basically doing the same thing.
And there is a limited population in India who has the secondary education good enough to go to any kind of engineering school - clearly it's a much smaller pool to draw on than the US has, even though our population is much less
Believe me, India has a massive middle class that can afford to send their kids to engineering schools. The tuition is a substantially lower percentage of their income than it is here. And the number of engineering schools is huge too. Combine all these factors and you can safely deduce that it amounts to a lot of skilled professionals.

I really don't see how this gets moderated as Flamebait. Who is he trying to flame here?
This is a great development for the auto industry. Considering the number of features that an automobile has, it is impossible to satisfy every customer. I'm only suprised this took so long in the coming.

So now you can just microwave the AOL discs and have a light low-calorie snack.

I'm sorry, but someone had to say it.
PHB stands for "Pointy Haired Boss" - a reference to the boss in the Dilbert comic strips.
Dilbert: "You have to hold the notebook upside down and shake it to reboot, remember?"
PHB: "Oh right, thanks"

That is no way of referring to RMS

I'm curious to know if the Blaster worm had anything to do this outage. So far I haven't seen any mention but it does seem to be a possibility.
Even if you're in space, you cannot escape getting married. So much for my "i'm out of town" excuse.

This method :
void cancelAll(Collection c) {
for (Iterator i = c.iterator(); i.hasNext(); ) {
TimerTask tt = (TimerTask) i.next();
tt.cancel();
}
}
can be replaced with
void cancelAll(Collection c) {
for (Object o : c)
((TimerTask)o).close();
}
using the enhanced for statement. So cancel() changes to close()?
.. has to be the game that affected me the most. I flunked five classes because of it
