Fine, then let's use that argument to convince everyone to switch to greener technologies. I would like to think that adults would be able to work things out through logical, reasonable discourse and not a global warming boogeyman. I guess not.
Maybe we'll stop caring about skin color altogether and actually start voting based on actual competence, whether black, white, yellow, red, purple, whatever.
While the points of time and flexibility matches, there's an important difference between women generally preferring less math-intensive fields and women having "intrinsic differences" in ability.
The compiler *will* care if "CalendarWindow" is part of a standard library. English tends to be taught as an already existing standard, more akin to a standard library than a new program.
Okay, I'm honestly curious about this. I've heard this argument many times, and it makes complete sense in a corporate environment. However, I've yet to figure out how such support could be supplied to a computer game. Is there any history of people specifically purchasing support for a game? If a game is problematic enough to need tech support, then it needs to be put back in development.
Thinking back, I remember a 900 number for game hints in a Final Fantasy manual, but that was about it. Now, with sites like GameFAQs, the market there is gone. On the other hand, I know one or two people who buy game guides.
According to Wikipedia, the Volt is expected to get anywhere from 50 to 150. I don't know of any car that gets 100mpg.
Plus, there's that warm fuzzy feeling of getting away from petroleum-based fuels in general. Let's save the petro for our space rockets.
eMusic works fine with Linux.
Well, I've not tried their download manager. But then, I never used it under Windows, either. It's not like it provides a significant amount of value.
Music is dead. Say hello to Marketing. And if you have a hard time believing that statement, then I have two words for you. Hanna Montana. Still not convinced? Here's two more. American Idol.
Oh, no. Music is alive and well. It's the RIAA that's the zombie farm. Stop looking at the billboards and you'll find plenty of real musicians making real music; Jonathan Coulton, for instance. Tom Smith. Head out to live shows and listen to the real musicians who aren't too busy overproducing their label-deal records. There's plenty of real music if you bother to look.
Wikipedia is hardly a definitive source. That article may very well have been edited by (and monitored by) a CoS drone. I'm sure they could afford someone to sit and watch Wikipedia for anything painting CoS in a negative light.

They could have made it part of the startup routine: on boot, run the test and store the result for as long as the computer is powered on.

As I understand it, caffiene is actually very popular nowadays.
But I don't think they would fit in a station wagon...

No, no, I think you're just backing up his point. ;)

He posted first, but he was also closer to the black hole.

Odd as it may sound, I half expect that he could make a recording such as that much more listenable than the concept initially suggests.

It sounds like he's getting that experience right now.
I, for one, welcome our brain-mush-eating overlords.
I'd say Grammar Nazis are also part of Slashdot's generally colloquial understandings.

Can a pun be anything else? ;)
Thank you! The summary was starting to get creepy.
"SOA will raise productivity.
SOA will end all strife.
SOA is life. All praise SOA."
He's so hot he's exothermic!
When you capitalize it like that, "Real Life Performance" sounds an awful lot like a buzzword.
Because they don't have a powerful video card? Or don't want their video card using up power unnecessarily?

Apparently you've not played Checkers Fight Club rules.
Not a problem as long as you code in perl ;)
