And, not to mention, that if you don't have the ability, time, or willingness to preview all the content that they view on a console, you may do very well to simply not buy them a console at all. It would keep you from being offended, at least.
I can't imagine how it would effect your view of other people, unless of course you were unable to distinguish between reality and fantasy. If that's the case, though, I think you'd have bigger problems than wondering about the curious lack of cheesy basslines whenever you leave the house.
I would assume they mean the protocol, since the large number of 3rd party clients makes it pretty clear that most people aren't a big fan of the AIM software itself.
The problem with a business model like this is that you then your subscribers can only talk to other subscribers. If you essentially ARE the market for instant messenging, the case of AIM, then you're just going to shoot yourself in the foot as you scare away the vast majority of your users. Even if they did charge for any AIM usage (not just voice/video), and I signed up, what would be the point? I can't imagine anyone else I know paying for AIM. Buddy lists will only be filled with fools that have recently parted with their money. I can't imagine that they'll be able to make back in subscribing fees what they'll lose in advertising from the mass exodus..
I can only assume this is a troll, but I'll induldge you.
Many cars that are imported from other markets, or must serve a single market (domestically) that may require different standards in different areas (emissions from state to state, with California being the most notorious), lead automakers to "play it safe" many times, and go with what will work in the most markets possible. So this would mean selling cars that adhere to California's emissions standards in states that would allow for less restrictive intake/exhaust/fuel management systems because in some cases it's cheaper and easier than having a "Flordia car" and a "California car" (not to mention of the difficulties that would arise moving the car from one state to another, post-sale).
A simple solution is to reprogram the ECU, which can even be done at some dealerships. Sure, it may cost money, but that's generally for the use of the equipment. That Digital Rebel didn't hack itself. Someone bought a computer, and used that. So it wasn't "free" either.
professors want to hand me a big (often 100+ page) stack of their handwritten lecture notes (with messy text, equations, and diagrams; sometimes double-sided) and expect me to post a PDF-or-something-similar to their course's web page.
Spend the money on buying them copies of Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing.
The insurance for small cars are rising due to the proclivity of SUVs and large consumer trucks not only to totally demolish, but also kill all occupants of "normal" sized vehicles. That's not so much an issue if you live in a place that is so rural that there is no slow plowing, but on the LA freeway is another matter entirely.
The issue here, to me, isn't that the student was investigated, but that the FBI can use the (perpetually) "open" investigation to deny FOIA requests.
Investigating a "suspicious" request is one thing, and in that the FBI did nothing, however to then deny the request, after having investigated and found no foul-play or cause for alarm, is the dangerous part.
I would tend to agree, for no other reason than that the story is exceedingly simple in theme (like the Original Trilogy). And of course, that's one of the things that makes (or made, depending on who you ask) Star Wars great: the simple premise allowed for fantastically creative characters and settings while remaining accessable. Of course, it's accessability also stemmed from the fact that the dialog and acting in the Original Trilogy, for the most part, was fun and light-hearted.
The New Trilogy falls flat because it seems to be constantly aware of itself and all the actors appear to be amazingly self concious. I can almost hear them thinking "better not mess up this Star Wars movie!" while in the original, I can hear Luke yell "Carrie!" without batting an eye.

Are you kidding? I've seen COLLEGE STUDENTS spend 15 minutes trying to figure out how to "open their disk" in Windows XP.
Priss is not a lesbian, IIRC.
1) Get modded +5 2) ... (Soviet Russia)
3) Find GOLD in them hills
4) Profit!
If you read the article (I know, I know) you would have noticed that while the idea isn't new, the method, and more importantly the application, are.

Kinda like the "Israeli Intelligence Agency, Mossad".

Your car, for one.
I like how you linked muggers to both Nazism AND terrorism in two posts.
BEAUTIFUL!
Yes.

You realize Saddam was sold sarin by the United States, right?
Or the smell of napalm.. I mean FREEDOM, in the morning.

Actually, in CA you only need the rear plate.
I wouldn't really call an '03 Cobra "factory." That's at least really pushing the definition.
I don't believe that "science" has answered that question, yet. There are theories, but no definitive proof of anything.
Well, if we're gonna "go there" then I'd definately include the harddrive. It's not like iPods are solid-state.
Indeed. Though it's clearly not as fun as pasting barcodes to their foreheads.
