Anything stored on a server that has ever had one single image of child pornography stored on it is going to be "blocked" by the FBI eventually anyway. Sure, it's a slippery slope, but it's one we fell off a long time ago. We're just watching the continued erosion from the bottom of the hill.
I believe the article was about audio/dramas/. I don't believe it's possible to dramatize a work without "making changes that you deem appropriate." Heck, it's not possible to read a book on tape without making changes - the book allows each reader to provide their own inflection.
I don't think it's a matter of "moral superiority" to distinguish between people who intend to faithfully reproduce a work in a new format (such as Olivier's Hamlet) and people who intend to adapt a work not only to a new medium, but to add new meaning to the work itself (such as 10 Things I Hate About You).
I'm a little confused - the "correct" behavior for having a margin of -30 is to ignore the margin? Guess that makes sense...
Oh, hang on.
"Negative margin values are allowed, but there may be implementation-specific limits."
So... No, I guess you're wrong. Opera 7 is rendering the page correctly, and so is Opera 6. It just happens that the page depends on an implementation-specific limit to render/legibly/, and Opera 7 doesn't have that limit set to what the page expects.
Only difference I see between the screenshots for Opera 6 and Opera 7 on the Opera page is that some of the images haven't loaded on Opera 6 - which lets the page format better.
If your Opera 6 screenshot looks/nothing/ like Opera's... Perhaps you should turn on your monitor?
"The judge found him to be "stout and thick," with "exaggerated troll-like features" and very pale skin -- fitting for someone who lives underground. Given all that, Judge Barzilay concluded, the Mole Man was more mole than man."
How does it feel to have your life subjected to such intense scrutiny? Much of the online world has to see you as something of a freak - the one person they can think of who couldn't receive an email even if he wanted to. It's a stark contrast to people who don't use the internet because they're afraid of it, or don't understand it.
Since most of this scrutiny has been internet-based, to what degree have you been aware of it? A Google search on your name yields 30k results. This puts you on the same order of magnitude as Charlie Sheen and Wil Wheaton. What aspects of the culture that has grown up around your name are you familiar with, and how do you feel about them?
"Then, the phone functionality seems awkward. There's no way to dial with the screen closed."
That is incorrect.
You can use the wheel to dial (not so bad if you're used to using a wheel) a number that's not in your recent history or speed dial, or use the wheel to select one of those numbers.
I checked the website - by the time I had put together my order, I was up to $284, plus a $35 activation fee, and a $50 mail-in-rebate.
Decided I couldn't wait to get my hands on it, went to a local store - walked out for $216 (with tax) and a $25 activation fee.
Part of the difference was I didn't get the headset (since it comes with an earbud, which is all I really wanted anyway) and I didn't get the AC adapter ($20, they didn't have it in yet). But I also didn't have to deal with the mail-in-rebate hassle.
Down side is they don't have the plan in the PoS, yet, so they have to call it in manually... But it'll probably still be activated before I would have gotten it shipped to me.
Right now, I have 11 programs active on my taskbar. Without tabbed browsing, I would have 14. There have been times when I have had 5 tabs open in each of 3 sessions. I love tabbed browsing.
Is JonKatz HIMSELF hunting me down? I can't believe that 5 points have already been wasted modding me down as flamebait and a troll. How low can I go, in a response to a (-1) response to a (-1)? Is ANYONE reading my posts here but JonKatz's most valiant defenders?
Try this again, less troll-full, this time.

This is tasteless. JonKatz, the facts stand on their own face. Every one of us is capable of reacting to this without your help. Every one of us is capable of drawing conclusions without you leading us to them.
We all saw the videos, we all saw the photographs, we all felt, in some way, the explosions. If all you have to say is the same thing EVERYONE else has been saying, make your comment in the threads just like the rest of us. You should not be entitled to your own story on this. The story that contains the facts should still be on the top of the page.

Well, sure, the same as you need good programmers with some training to author free software.
I mean, festival makes all the free radio dramas I can stomach, but I don't think that's really what they had in mind.

If your Opera 6 screenshot looks
"One merely has to rename the source code
for the compiler,"
s/has to/has to detect the backdoor, and/
Liquid nitrogen just got too expensive?
I think "Malicious" is the more... conventional choice.
Dude, I think it's a suggestion, not a challenge.

Sorry, Ron, back to the farm with you.

Not that scores of people are doing this already using the Danger Sidekick, or anything.
Sure can. It's definitely slower that a 10-key style number pad, though. Some automated assistants might time out on you during 16-digit entries.

It's not news until semi-traditional media reports on it.
"I know this sounds like something of an absurd project, but then again, there once was a day when building a desktop PC was an absurd project."
What day was that? 1950? First Desktop PCs were sold as kits, you realise.
Straightforward implementation, no matter how complex, can be scheduled accurately. Developing new technology cannot.
IE 5.00 is fine, all I have available to check - certainly not the latest.
Here's a small clue - user numbers are sequential.
Is JonKatz HIMSELF hunting me down? I can't believe that 5 points have already been wasted modding me down as flamebait and a troll. How low can I go, in a response to a (-1) response to a (-1)? Is ANYONE reading my posts here but JonKatz's most valiant defenders?
