Ah Ha! Now they just need Mythbusters to prove that using your cellphone is an aeroplane DOES NOT disrupt the navigational systems and cause planes to fall out from the skies.
>they've just gotten better at hiding the fact that you need to load the entire office suite to load one application.
And I thought MS has the monopoly on doing things the dumb way. Why don't we call it as we see it? Loading the entire suite just cause I need to use Calc is pretty darn stupid.
On another note, OO 2.0 is bug-ridden. Had to return to 1.1.x after 10 minutes of using Calc because of multiple bugs (user problem). The main gripe(amongst other bugs) is this - Try cutting a small block of text in Calc 2.0 and see how long it takes, on my rig it takes 3-5 secs. Surely its not ready for prime time?
They should spend all their time with instructions like
"I had to use the approach documented at http://xxxx/linux/kernel/0306.3/axer.html but with a few slight modifications. These steps will get it working by apparently putting the app into compatibility mode. A hack, but a working pointer is better than no pointer at all! "
Yeah them criminals can have the city, we're working out how to get this doc to print.

If we can both agree that what he did had zero monetary impact on the retailer in question then I'll agree that what he did will not/did not affect other consumers.
I believe "renting" results in higher prices for the rest of us.

>For those who havn't done it, modding an xbox is so easy that virtually anyone can do it
I'm amazed at my stupidity, since I have two XBox'es. One with a fried board and one to replace the first botched mod job.
The contact point is about the size of the tip of a very fine pen and I err, missed.
Hang on, does this mean I can enter the UK without getting arrested. I did fail the mod job.....:)
very same people who flew planes into buildings, who bombed a subway in Spain, who cut off the heads of innocent civilians trying to help Iraqi citizens.
Then why did your oh so great democratic country not charge him and let him loose after 3 years in detention without charge?

Its old, very old, trust me. I have proof that it was released before you were borned.
> SHIPPING IS $12 FOR SOMETHING THAT WEIGHS 1 POUND
That's small change. Try $134.97 to ship a Golf Pouch which costs less than $20 to Singapore.
Those who think Bloomberg is right, will mostly be business owners. Not managers, owners. Those who think Bloomberg is wrong, are /. regulars.
Darn! Okay make that 0.5kg. Beat THAT! :)
Cause you can. Make it weigh less than 1kg and you have a real winner.
You're not sweet, salty or sour so you must be.........
Bitter.
AFAIK if you are caught with some, you will be charged in court and possess a criminal record.
You'd be wrong. It is not illegal to possess chewing gum. FUD rules huh?
Ah, but some of us want more than 100 songs to choose from, or even better our entire music collection on hand.
Personally I like the idea of not having to swap music in and out of my mp3 player all the time.
I have unit trusts that are linked to his island. Buy them at makemerich-stupid.com. Buyer gets virtual holiday at virtual island.

Let me guess, not designed in China.
told the camera is designed for water skiing/scuba diving/sailing/etc and is waterproof down to 100m.
Err, show me one camera 'casing' that rated at 100m costing less than $1,000. You should do some homework...........
Nah don't bother, this is /. where MS is always, no exceptions, wrong and evil.

Learning and contributing so my wife/kids will get fed? Thanks, I have a job and XP does it perfectly well. I'll leave the contributing to you.
Easier is good in most cases.
Yeah don't his family have to eat?
And the judge did do anything bout him 'stealing' Wi-Fi signal from somebody else? Wasn't there a story on /. about this a few weeks back?
Pretty much how I'd do it too.

If a business deal came by where I could make $10 million by duping an old lady out of her $100k house, I wouldn't take it.
Hey crucify me but I'll dupe the old lady and pay her $200k and still pocket $9.8m.
Like the US and Kyoto?
