instead of having one case for each browser that exists, we first have to check which version were using and then have one case for each browser that exists
it's no longer about waiting for everybody to support the standard, now it's about waiting for everybody to drop support for the old standard, which takes much longer
why is it so difficult? If you have a home in an area not affected by earthquakes then surely you can't just leave a tripod set up and do an exposure every week or so
Good product, but bad support just like commercial counterparts.
There are so many tiny 3yr old+ bugs in there now. These are mostly minor things which are really annoying - focus locking problems, missing accelerator keys, things that are always pushed 2 releases after the current one. Things that make a program 'polished' instead of just 'works'
It may take someone to spend 1-2 days to fix one, but nobody wants to do it. Not fun? But I thought we had at least SOME paid employees of AOL working here.
You'd think someone in charge would want to clear out a few of these problems quickly, but maybe we don't have any project managers volunteering there.
Are all big projects doomed to become things we love to hate?
I think things generally no longer enter public domain. The term is always death + 1xx years, where the 1xx years is adjusted to equal now()+25yrs just before the term is up.
'The average time served on a rape case is 5.5 years.'
OK, so half the/convicted/ rapists spent less time than Kevin in jail. (You know what average means, right?)
Ppl always say XYZ sentences that are too short!
But really, has any one of you considered staying inside your house for a month, let alone a year? I mean, apart from that stupid dotcomguy thingy.
If a criminal won't change after X years of jail, why would then change after 2X years? It's not like they have counselling in there.
What's the point of jails nowadays anyway? If you want to reform someone, it prolly won't happen. If you want to punish someone, why not just whip them like in Sg and get it over with? They don't have a major crime problem...
How would YOU feel if you were suddenly held 'pretrial' for a few years...
so, you go to your dealer, and you ask how to change your 14" rims to 16" ones. 16" may be rather common, but if they ask u for 10$ to show you, it's your choice to try to find someone to show you for free.
It's called free choice. They're free to ask for $, you're free to go elsewhere (or whine)

and it's even worse if it's calculated at cost
imagine having a couple hundred Microsoft's CDs stuffed in your mailbox
either way it's seems the consumer is being punished and Microsoft is getting free marketing
AFAIK, the PIII ID is still there, and a while back AMD said they'd add it to theirs, tho I can't remember if we convinced them not to...
'a piece of memory that is hardware protected from being written to more than once per cold boot'
Kinda reminds me of the pentium ID that 'could not be switched on without rebooting'
1.9Ghz and 2.4Ghz. Close? 500 cycles per second. 25%. But then again 2+2=5 for very large values of 2...
Why bother with the theory anyway? If you're worried, put your egg by your phone and cook it.
How many images does he have to take to qualify?

what if ppl start burning all their trash in their yards now?
then, later, it's deemed 'terrorist like activity' to burn things in their yards.
aah, it's all wierd.
aren't some virii named by the antivirus ppl?
cellphones break down so easily. Mine, the screen's going fuzzy after exactly 2yrs. Funny, my contract was 2yrs too...
I've only ever dropped it once and I only use it enough to need a charge every 3-4days.
what happens if the existing "sarcophagus" fails and there's no new one over it?
/more/ dangerous...
I don't see how having a new one over it could make it any

Lucky those internet refrigerators aren't so commonplace yet...

Hmm... I didn't really want my PC running at 150C, so why r they offering to make it run at 1000C?

In the windows world, .net signifies having to DL 12MB+ runtimes, and slow interpreted code instead of compiled.
so r they selling this device based on it using more of your ram for the OS and running slower than PPC2002?
I think when any co. takes on MS, it's a hidden cry to be bought out...
WIPO precedents have always been pro business. This is no different.
talking about ad-free, since they dun like ad-skipping, I wonder if we can bundle machines with ad-viewing robots.
Every nite when we go to sleep we'd turn on the robot and it'd attentively watch all the ads we skipped that nite.
Or maybe I'll just let my cat watch them.
yeh. hope your upgrade is as good as those HP DVD-R/RW upgrades a while back...
someone go and tell him he's already got Echelon running?
Yeh, you're right, but I don't trust MS, and now I can't get customised updates from my local cinema chain cuz they've gone 'passport'
Who on earth says I use the same username/password combination for all accounts anyway? Don't be stupid.
You should buy those $10000 drives that burn REAL DVDs. Works on all drives, don't worry about all the other formats.
but it takes just one fall guy and the system's in. for good.
one stupid Congressmen to be duped by campaign contributions.
doesn't sound so unlikely now, does it..
