Except in the case of radio it is not only unethical it is also illegal. It would be nice if laws were enacted that required companies to disclose who they give gifts/bribes to so that the public can easily discover if certain groups bloggers/journalists are just paid mouthpieces for a companies products.
"Fo Sho" lost its appeal circa 2000 with the release of Snoop Dogg's The Last Meal but the term was not universally disposed as a term of affirmation until the release of Jay-Z's The Blueprint circa 2001 due to the popularity of the single Izzo(H.O.V.A) which borrowed heavily from Snoop Dogg's supposed "Crip Colloquialism". In actuality the proper terminology to express agreement with another party would be "Fo Shizzle" which is not "Crip Colloquialism" but a form of expression first invented by an often forgotten Funk band known as Gap Band
What are they teaching people in school these days?;-)
Regardless of whether this happened in reality or a virtual reality it still happend so how are the memories false? Or is this just a matter of distinguishing between real and virtual worlds if so then that makes perfect sense because dreams imo are our own virtual reality and I've had some dreams that I couldn't distinguish between reality when I woke up.
Actually he has it right if you don't keep your children busy with chores and school work they will have plenty of time to find their way into other things less beneficial to their future.
Something you fail to realize is that in a real war the survivors make the rules and both sides will do whatever it takes to be the survivor. You can throw the Geneva convention out the window if guerrillas hold up in a town and the citizens of the town do not hand them over I can guarantee you that the town after town will be flattened until word spreads that you can't hide guerillas soldiers without consequences. This was what was done in WW2 when holdout German soldiers were hiding amongst the people, after Germany surrendered, in small villages attacking American forces. We would be fooling ourselves to think that soldiers in future conflicts would not do the same thing especially after death and destruction becoming the norm after years of war.
I always believed there was an easy solution to this problem make linux users put their money where their mouth is and anyone who REALLY wants a particular game should make a down payment 2/3 the cost fo the game that would be put in escrow and upon the completion of the port of game, abc gaming company would have access to the funds, if they do not complete the port they do not earn the money. I always read comments on slashdot saying I will purchase certain games if they are ported to linux but spectacular failures such as Loki have proven otherwise (yes I know I am simplifying their demise) I believe such a setup would prove beneficial to all party's involved while mitigating the risk for gaming companies.
I don't mean to flame but it is funny you mention Americans tend to be more loud and less considerate because Americans who visit Europe (myself included) seem to think the same thing about people from many Euro(as a continent). It is all a matter of perspective the one thing I was always disturbed by was how many Euros especially the Italians and French speak 2 or 3 inches from your face and STILL feel its necessary to speak loudly. In America we tend to prefer a little distance when conversing. Diversity makes the world an interesting place doesn't it.
You know I thought I was the only one who wondered this. I find it hilarious that people will play Madden, NBA2K and a variety of other sports games, when they can go outside pickup a basketball/football and play the game themselves. Personally, during the few hours I play games, I only play FPS or fantasy titles things I CAN'T do in real life.
There is one problem, will the people of the past believe you or will they think you are a nutcase predicting what seems to be impossible? I think you would have a harder time convincing people that 9/11 would happen than a breach of the levees in New Orleans.
Although I hate the way the host tries to question people about why they decided to come and have sex with a 12 yr old because it's pretty pointless I actually believe it is one of the few programs that actually does a good public service fear of public humiliation will definitely deter some of the potential pedophiles out there, not all, but I'm sure a few will think twice before they try picking up some 12 yr old on the internet.
Why don't they just watch swordfish? What hacker hasn't been asked to crack a govt database with 8192 bit encryption at gunpoint while getting a blow job by a hot chick in the back of a club.
No, It won't quell the violence in Iraq, it won't help republicans in the elections and it certainly won't bring back any of the people he massacred but it will make 100% certain that he never comes back into power and massacres anyone else without other people paying the bill to house, clothe, and feed him in a prison. Show me all the sympathy pictures in the world, it won't change my mind the death penalty is meant for people like Saddam, he has more than earned it.
You know I have been telling people this exact same thing in relation the war on drugs since I was maybe 16, so 10 years or so. Whenever we make a huge drug bust instead of burning it or keeping it in evidence flood the market with free drugs and make selling drugs so unprofitable for manufacturers that they no longer have an incentive to do it. The same thing goes for online file sharing simply allow profitless file sharing and suddenly the "terrorists" have lost a huge revenue source.
Yes unless you happen to be black then the immigration process couldn't be any more difficult having two friends who moved to Aruba from Grenada and both ended up marrying Dutch women, I can tell you that both they and their spouses gave up on moving to the Netherlands because of the immigration policies that border on racism.
As for comparing the Netherlands immigration policy with US immigration policy there is no comparison. Although many people seem to make the immigration issue in the US about race it is not. Both of my parents are immigrants from Haiti and Jamaica and they are disgusted by the fact that there are people breaking the law to come into the country when we have been working for YEARS, spending thousands of our own dollars to bring many of our family members to the US LEGALLY. While I understand that there are people who are against amnesty in the US because they are racist it needs to be known that there are MANY people out there who are against illegal immigration because it is a slap in the face to all of hard work we have done to do things the right way.
Yes but what about those of us who have our walls covered in 30 inch monitors with a different porn flick on every monitor?? Surely we'd need more than 315TB.
As a Syracuse graduate I can tell you there are other reasons upstate New York is shrinking its called SNOW, OVERCAST, and a horrible job market. Places like Syracuse, Buffalo, Rochester, and Albany are great to places to go to college because you stay focused on your work, but as far as living goes you couldn't pay me to spend the rest of my life in upstate NY because from November to sometimes mid April upstate NY is a frozen shithole with little to do but get wasted.
If you are from upstate NY why in hell would you want to live in a place like Rochester when you can travel 7 to 9 hours south and move to the NY-Metro area where there is a thriving job market, a much better climate, and an abundance of entertainment.
Don't get me wrong Upstate is a beautiful place I spend a lot of vacation time during the summers but to ask someone in their 20s to live there is insane.
Its cool and all but these are suborbital flights I don't know about you but when I first think of space flight I think of being in space for a hell of a lot more than a few minutes. Its a great first step but sounds more like an extended amusement park ride than actual tourism to me its as if you were to go on a cruise to the Caymans, they dropped you off on the coast for 5 minutes then you had to get back on and leave. If anything I am just happy that all these wealthy people are paying the first adopter fee so the rest of us can one day get a real space flight a lot cheaper, a lot longer, and probably a hell of a lot better.
Deadlines also lead to half ass buggy products that don't even meet original expectations *cough* Vista *cough*. Deadlines thus piss off the kind of people who have a vision of what they want their "perfect product" to be like. And I would think these are the type of people google wants working for them.
If you read the article you would see they have plenty of motivating factors so that argument is dead, coordination is highly overrated if a group of people are working on anything (sports, coding, singing, dancing) long enough they all start to work in sync granted you need a coach of sorts in all of those areas but you definitely don't need someone prodding them like they are cattle. I don't even know why you mentioned direction, I'm assuming you work with adults if they need someone to give them direction then you are in some serious trouble.
When I was in college I worked for a few weeks in a telemarketing center and there were parents who had full time jobs who did just that to get their kids the PS2 for Christmas. Sad but true.
Considering most of the people on slashdot's idea of a hot date involves a swedish webcam chick, their palm, and napkins dating an "IT" should be highly encouraged. You never know they might decide to come out of their caves and date women.

Liquid Terror would make an awesome title for a porn flick

There won't be a Nintendo Wii version GOW is an Xbox360 exclusive.

Being that its a federal case county lockup is probably out of the question.
