I won't get it unless it comes with a camera. only real reason to have bluetooth-enabled sunglasses. Would make uploading screencaps of tv shows so much easier!
I know everyone here thinks I'm a freak now because I didn't think of any computer geek-related use for this crap.
well, if I may, I'll add Media Monkey. Even though the complete version isn't free, this is the best playlist creator, mp3/CD player I've seen so far. I've installed it to my sisters and also to my mother and they loved it. It can index everything you've got and gives you an easy way to update batches of ID3 tags.

Maybe those guys should start using i-Names, then then they wouldn't have to spell the address to avoid spam... I hear it's the next big thing agains spammers...
The colour of the taskbar in Windows wasnt just randomly picked by Bill "hmm, lets make it blue", they would have had researchers and testers etc to decide what it should be. The same goes with every little detail in Windows. Its not based on what some guy think would be best, but typically by what the research shows would be the best
Seems to me you never worked for a large enough company. I think you never heard of the most important criteria for deciding every little detail for any product. It's called it BSS around here, Boss Says So.
Doesn't matter how hard we work on something and how many sources we show that support our POV. If we show it to higher instances and they say "I like it better blue", you be sure it's gonna be blue. Cruel world.:)
And that's as cathedral as you can get, and it's everywhere.

They're only gonna ask you to help them move 50.000.000,00 USD (fifty millions american dollars) outside Nigeria before they give you a free video game. Because they know you're someone trusworthy.
It won't last unless I've overestimated the intelligence of the average internet user.
Intelligence and averagem internet user in the same sentence is an oxymoron, you know.:)
You have to remember that most of the/. crowd are the reason dodgeball has disappeared from schools these days. They were on the receiving end of those vicious headshots, and took their revenge on the world by creating spam, computer virii, and distributing copyrighted material for free over the net...
Those annoying kids always left me to be the last one chosen for the teams. But I taught them. They don't think Bagle and Beagle are a pastry and a dog anymore...
agree completely. Companies (and government) should think of open source solutions the same way they think about off-the-shelf: as a possibility. Not just use it because it is open source. Risks, advantages and everything else should be considered in both cases.:)
I think it's much more interesting to spend money on training and end up having people with more skills, more able to get better jobs than spend it all in M$ crap and keep people in an ignorant state.
Not that you can't learn from using M$ products, but isn't it best if we can get more people "unafraid" of open-source software?

I can't wait till they run my /pub/porn/pictures/ through this baby.
I read this and my first thought was:

"Imagine taking a photo of a street corner to find out where you are"
/. Talking to people is taboo.

Oh, I forgot, this is
yeah, but I'm still waiting for my iOven! How am I supposed to cook on those old-fashioned white home appliances?
my husband did that when he wanted to learn japanese. He changed his OS, his google setting, browser, everything.
A few days ago he formated his machine...

Oh god! Now they'll finally produce The Babe Show, starring 342 piglets, a lassie clone and a farmer who you can swear looks like Mel Gibson.

if they used Auri Shield, this wouldn't be news.
Oh come on, they probably saved enough by now to visit Milliways... it's right around the corner.

It probably is... it's the same mentality that makes me want to post a witty comment even thought I don't know what I'm saying ;)
not to worry... I noticed my own stupidity later on. :)

Have you ever seen any GOOD spammer behavior?

0.9 won't install any themes and has broken up the ones I had installed on my profile...
So, what will be the name of Firefox's new version? (I vote for Powercthüllu. Got to love Firesomething :)
