With all of this talk about definitions, I think you need to look up "make". Make does not mean "put your watermark on something someone else created".
You know, I kind of admire your grit. Not only are you admitting to watching that movie, but you're actually trying (I assume with a straight face) to act like there was some relevance to it outside of watching a movie about boobs.
Yet Apple executives have said that one-third of Fortune 500 companies were interested in giving iPhones - with all their known and potential security holes - to their employees.
Yet xerxesVII has said that one-third of smoking hot women were interested in giving him - with all his known flaws and potential for flatulence - felatio on demand.
That was pretty easy. And the day an executive's opinion on something technical has a positive effect on my opinion, well, that would probably be the day that an executive decides I should have a raise. But otherwise, I don't trust the higher ups' views of anything.
How about instead of ranting and talking about boycotts, he and his gang of tech-hippies start some sort of movement where they either flat out block requests from certain ISPs or at least throw up a "Here's our complaint about this ISP and why you should be using them" interstitial? That's the sort of thing that gets people to sit up and take notice.
This wasn't really an "Ask Slashdot". I guess you could call it a "Tell Slashdot".
I'll have to type one of these up and submit it. Stay tuned, folks. Next week you just might read a long-winded blog entry by yours truly in which I'll talk about something that really bugs me and how I think it could be fixed. Behavior of cats? Behavior of women? Use of turn indicators among the driving populace at large? I'm open to suggestions!
Roller Chester is good for a few laughs if you're a fan of absurdist humor. Admittedly, there isn't much there, but this isn't uncommon when it comes to web-based original video entertainment.
That a number as large as 33% of 18 to 24 year-olds should have supported government regulation absolutely infuriates me. Once again, I am reminded of why I will never have kids. I simply don't want to put my offspring out into a population so inscrutably stupid.
Since I'm in the middle of reading this series for the first time, Descolada was the very first thing that came to mind. I know this case isn't like that, but the timing was just too coincidental.
Shouldn't an artist be able to give away his own music if he wants to without fear of industry retaliation?
Sure. And I should be able to get along with people even if my hair and clothes are unkempt and there's a really, really great guy inside me, they just need to take the time to see that.
Oh, wait. There are unwritten rules about this kind of thing. You can do whatever the hell you want. Just know that if you go outside the bounds of "normal" behavior that nobody has to meet you on that field.
My parents insist on using a calling card. When they call me, what comes up in my caller ID is the city where whatever bank they got sorted through is located. For instance, my caller ID will show some 1-800 number and say "MONTGOMERY, AL" or some such city. Would this fall under spoofing?

This part of their effort to embrace OSS.

Excellent catch. Don't know what's up with the mods, though.
What is this Engadgets? I've been to Engadget before, but I've never heard of Engadgets. (follows link)
Oh, looks like another round of we-don't-need-to-fact-check-much-less-spell-check-around-here.

Because they are the majority of the populace.
I think Mr. Greenwood is the one who should apologize to all of us.

Misprint, indeed. TFA says 18 kg. It also says 8 motors. Perhaps that's where palegrey.net made the mistake.
The world is going to end in 2012, isn't it?
Do you mean to tell me that Roland Piquepaille forgot to log in before he submitted this?
When a problem comes along, you must diff it.
I say diff it.
Diff it good.

If you can find me, you come get it.
(Going conservative here)
6,500,000,000
versus 350
Not even one percent.
Get to two digits and call me back.
I may sound cold. I won't even pretend to claim to be uncomfortable with it.
On a planet that is not getting any less full of this species, I simply cannot be bothered to pay attention to numbers so small.

Just drop another 600 on another computer and use your iPhone with that, Daddy Warbucks.
Jesus I'm cranky today.
I'm talking about all the other finger gestures that can be done on the iPhone's screen.
There's only one finger gesture I need for the iPhone and I don't even have to make contact with it to accomplish anything.
How did you get that backwards b?

Maybe I'm just too big of a geek, but his statement really piques my curiosity.
I have to know: What on earth is a montherboard?
