This. Exactly this.The problem is, that the value of our work is so low compared to the value of the goods we want to buy. I have no idea how to fix this, though, because people and corporations both suck.
This "profit can justify any behavior" is a cancer that will let to the downfall of our society. Ethics have no place in the modern economy and we all suffer for it.
I think you mean "has lead us to the downfall of our society". It's fallen, we're just starting to see the fallout.
All of my information on Facebook, and much of the info my family and friends have on there is fake. They don't even know my real birthday, where I live, or my gender. 99% of the stuff I post on there is fake as well. What will the lawyers do, when the info they get from FB contradicts the other documented info?
I've never really been a fan of Ghost. I just use bzip2 to make images. It works great, is fast, and I never have to worry about a later version not supporting the compression.
Also, this just in, there are predictions for snowfall in Hell, this evening...
In all seriousness, IT'S ABOUT GODDAMN TIME. Someone needs to stand up to the constant intrusion into our personal habits, and if Microsoft is going to be the first to do so, more power to them. If they do as good of a job on IE9 as they have on Windows 7, it will end up being an awesome browser, anyway.
5 years ago, I would have never believed that those words would have come out of my mouth. Of course, back then, WinXP was their offering, and I was a student intern writing Linux kernel code for credit. Everything changes...
Actually, according to amazon, the web browser working is dependent on what country you are in. Check the drop down on the Kindle International listing.
I'm sorry, but I don't care if it has a vibrating codpiece with an attachment to automatically clean up the mess after the happy ending, if a reading device doesn't have a web browser, I'm not interested.
Yes, but don't you dare call them "dictatorships". Under the 2009 I Don't Like That Naughty Word Act, you can't use dirty words, like "dick", improper conjugations like "tater", and you must have a commissioned vessel to call it a ship. So call it what it is. A penispotatoboat.

You mean, other than Windows Me?
I swear, if I had mod points....
^^^This. If only I had mod points...
PlayStation Vista. I bet THAT ONE will be AWESOME.
Last time I checked, HTML isn't a programming language...

Easy, and no proprietary software to be deprecated out from under me.
Absolutely, but it's still weird, isn't it?

As an option, yes, but not as the default X server. You can expect it to be really buggy right now, though.
Yet another reason I block images in Gmail.
Google really can't tell me much about it, and it takes forever if I try to go there.
How can a Finnish man hate mobile phones?! Aren't they like the national bird there, or something?
In space, no one can hear your stream!

I dunno, I think she's cute. She could grow up to be one of those models who show off cellphones in Siemens commercials.

These are really cool, and quite beautiful. I think it'd be a shame to hide them from the public, simply from an artistic standpoint. Very pretty.
So, this is basically dd for the brain? (tl;dr)
...does it still die when you bash it on the head with a golf club? And will it make just as nice a pair of slippers?
