Thank christ this didn't happen. Steve Jobs would have stifled innovation so much and we'd be paying huge for every single google service we currently enjoy at no charge.
People are fucking morons, and this proves it. This is exactly the kind of unintelligent trash that needs to be kept out of the dictionary. The people who maintain the oxford-english dictionary should be fired.
That makes no sense, I don't think you understand the issue. The issue is with current events coloring their opinion. a wikipedia database that can't be updated doesn't pose a problem.
Because laser touch keyboards suck ass. Even more than an ipad keyboard.
Aside from the lack of tactile feedback, there is also the problem of the fact that your keyboard is now projected light which doesn't work well once your hands are in the way.
If you watch interviews with him you'll understand just how much he hated being tied to star trek and how it typecast him. The man oozes with contempt for his fans too.
So, the idea here is to double dip where gas powered cars are concerned? Tax them for getting gas, and then tax them for using the gas? Meanwhile EVs just pay for how much they drive?
The US government is as stupid and corrupt as ever.
Even my mother liked firefly. We can't have nice things because the majority of people are fucking stupid, ignorant drones that believe reality TV shows like "Jersey Shore" are the pinnacle of human creation.
iOS as a gaming platform is still shit. Most of the ports translate badly to it and only a very small number of companies write games that are even worth playing.
The Crysis engine would like to have a word with you. I remember the time when you'd have to pry the AMD hardware from my cold, dead hands - unfortunately the little company that could started to suck as it got larger. I can't believe the excuses you guys are coming up with now.

This is not new or exciting. This gets done a few times every year by random people, I'd hardly call it news.
tl;dr: nintendo fanboy likes comedies more than most games.
...how big piracy was even before DRM. People are attracted to piracy because it's free, not because of copy protection.

Fuck Steve Jobs, seriously.
Best laws are one thing, but I'm more interested in best enforcement.
Since when did Lex Luthor become a hero?

CmdrTaco is obsessed with page views and ad revenue. He doesn't give a shit about story quality.
Slashdot is becoming increasingly irrelevant in the geek news arena.
All they're trying to limit is contact with the outside world. The list really isn't that long when you consider that the goal is just isolation.
That makes no sense, I don't think you understand the issue. The issue is with current events coloring their opinion. a wikipedia database that can't be updated doesn't pose a problem.
You really don't understand the concept of cell phone jamming. I thought people on slashdot were supposed to be smart, but they are truly idiots.
The FBI can do their own fucking work for a change.
Why not allow them to have their mobile devices, but jam cell frequencies so they can't be 'contaminated' ?
Seems to me the problem is the language, not the input device.
Except then you're using a cheap netbook which sucks ass.

Of course people would buy it if it had an Apple logo. People turn in to complete idiots when you put an Apple logo on something.
We don't want excuses, we want results.

The only real difference between the two is that nerds are socially inept. They usually like all the same stuff.

Any show that sports a ship that houses a high class hooker is A-OK with me!
Jokes aside, does anyone notice how if a show attempts to be even remotely creative these days it gets cancelled within one or two seasons of release?
