... when it is time to turn the camera off and stop the blog. And I think that day may come very soon.
If you want to remember how she lived, it will become harder and harder for you to do so as the inevitability of her death becomes more and more obvious. You're already treating her like she's about to die; is that the way that you want to remember her?
Focus on who she was before all of this. Preserve her life, not her death.
I'd rather see a single shooting star than ten thousand tweets saying "Wow, I just saw one. Did you see it too?"
To each his own, but I don't need social networking to enjoy a meteor shower. A blanket, an empty field far the the city lights, and a couple of friends, and I'm all set.
So, let me get this straight... If Google reneges on the contract that Verizon, acting in good faith, made with them, this restores your hope in their business philosophies? Throwing their partners under the bus is part of their philosophy? And this makes you happy?
then I'm not sure whether these sites would seem all these busy at all. I suspect that they just look like they are confusing, because I'm confused and don't understand them. That's my fault, not theirs. I'm the one that doesn't speak the language.
For example, compare the sony site with the same sort of thing on itunes. Doesn't look all that different, and might even have fewer elements.
If the cart is going directly downwind faster than the wind, then the apparent wind (the velocity of the air relative to the cart) is backwards. So, as the cart accelerates from slower than the wind to faster than the wind, why doesn't the propeller change direction? Shouldn't it be going "backwards"?
In any case, if this does turn out to not be a hoax, I think that the inventor in the video should thank his lucky stars that the wind happened to be blowing in exactly the same direction as the street in front of his house, because the experiment is void if the wind is at a slightly different angle (tacking downwind faster than the wind is no big deal), and what are odds of that?
The nature of the road is irrelevant to the Google aspect of the case. The woman is responsible for using her own judgment to determine the suitability of the road for her purpose. I like the way you put it--responsible for her own stupidity.
The nature of the road may be relevant to the case against the driver, however. If the driver really was driving inappropriately, then he or she is in trouble. Probably less trouble, however, if Google is drawn into the case, since that makes her look like an opportunistic money grubber.
Sigh. Deep pockets attract frivolous lawsuits like a picnic draws ants.
If Sun hardware can't compete with the P-series, why would Oracle want to buy it? (If current Sun customers don't even want to buy Sun hardware, why would anyone?)
I'm not exactly sure what "Android doesn't live in a walled garden" means, but if means "doesn't have the design consistency and intuitiveness of Apple UIs" then I doubt that the market is going to embrace it.

It's OK to be a first mover, as long as you keep moving.
If you don’t like your internet service provider’s policies, you can simply switch to another one.
What if there's only one? Or what if I don't like any of them? What if they're all monopolistic consumer-gouging profit-maximizing companies?
I don't think there is a good historical precedence for the idea that market forces protect the consumer.
Yeah, his left hand AND his right hand.
Yes, he's ambidextrous.
I hadn't realized that this was common knowledge.

Late in 2008, the most sophisticated and well-coordinated international e-crime yet pulled off netted $9 million for its perpetrators.
It's the "most sophisticated and well-coordinated" one you know about, anyway....
Not so sophisticated and well-coordinated that it remained a secret, or that the ringleader didn't get caught, apparently.
Are there FBI agents trolling through this discussion waiting to pounce on the GNAA?
This is slashdot. They'd need a steamroller.
Lets hope for the outrage theory.

Google is for net neutrality when the lack of net neutrality could cost Google money.
Google is against net neutrality when the lack of net neutrality could gain Google money.
In related news, Google is a publicly-traded for-profit corporation with an eye on the bottom line. Get used to it.

The user name is a mixed blessing. Whenever I make a speling error, I get all sorst of flak.
The exit is right over there.
No, he didn't put a 'g' on the end, so it only matches the first...
... about the correct pronunciation of his name.

How much oil is down there? If we can't stop it, just how much oil is going to come out of that hole? Does anyone even know?
Never heard of such a thing, but sounds appealing. Anyone know where I can get one?
s/iPad/television, videogame, laptop, or every tablet except the kindle and nook/g
.
Or do you really think that the iPad is the only device with this property?
(I know we're all supposed to hate Apple right now on slashdot, but this seems over the top.)

So, this was written in 1999... But it's a nice read; clear and well explained.
But has anyone tested to see whether Linux still doesn't check ELF executables for nutty stuff like this? It's come a long way in the last decade...
(Since I don't have any x86 boxes handy, I'm just going to have to trust someone else to try it...)
In this case the mistakes are typos, and the profit goes to Google (and others), but the idea isn't all that novel.
