Really, there is no such "social cohesion" in the first place, so why bother about destroying it?
Don't mind modding this troll/flamebait/whatever, my karma has been "bad" for so long I don't care anymore, and since I don't care, I am free to speak my mind.
Just a thought : you're a coder, you're definitely _not_ a designer, generally speaking. Coding means being extremely analytical and thoughtful about the process, as opposed to designing which is being empirical and holistic about a user's thought patterns. Wanting to turn the first activity into the second one makes as much sense as wanting to turn the car engine design job into the steering wheel and board design job.
Like, NASA is going to put back people on orbit someday?
That would be a first step.
But wait, who needs NASA anymore, anyway, now that chinese, russian, and other nations, as well as private companies are taking over the job NASA cannot handle anymore.
Headsets like the Böse QuietComfort 2 are very effective in cancelling the annoying background noise. They favor concentration, and you can also hear to music with quieter levels, which helps a lot not to lose your ears.
Blu Ray disc is a major advance in storage, much more than a simple 5-fold increase in capacity. Even at $200 more, I'd buy it. Kudos to Sony, who has the balls to be a market opener here.
Currently, data transmission over mobile phones is priced per packet. There are packages to have less expensive usage, but packages themselves are either expensive or limitative (certain kind of data only, or only given connection points). Imagine how high the price can go if you begin to watch a movie everytime your commuting !... and, of course, no P2P downloading either !
And exactly how does Ballmer intends to kill Google? It won't be as easy as killing Netscape, because this time Google does not depend on the sale of some software. Micro$oft, on the other end...
This one is not colorized as the other one, which bears a painful likeness to 1950's colorized B&W photograph, and is certainly not at all nearly like the real colors of the martian plain.
Fluency is not a matter of the proportion of the minimal set of characters you believe you know, fluency is being able to think in the language. And judging by the amount of inner-translating process you use in order to communicate, you are not even an inch close to that state of mind.
Oh, and 6 months is ridiculous, come back to brag when you have lived at least 10 years in the country.

What happened to Slashfot's front page today ?

It's the source of this information which is open, perhaps ?

Will that system burn the eyes of my cat, too?
Just like C-hash
Well, after all, it's clear they're heading to some kind of overbloated BASIC again.
In summer, ice melts.
I can't believe some dumb moderator modded this "offtopic". Just RTFA, the controller has a design which may very well be mistaken for an iPod...
Anyway.
I wonder if this new controller can also play MP3s...

My IBM thinkpad too has USB ports on both sides and ports ordered by size.
You just boot once, and then let it run.
Linux is not windoze, it doesn't need to reboot everytime you want to do something.
Just grab your 2TB laptop and ask 4Frontiers to get you to Mars.
No kidding !
Exactly the same story, years and years ago.
Getting old.
PostgreSQL is a mature DB engine, which, to the contrary of MySQL is ACID.

Ok, so one of the weapons Ballmer intends to use to cut off Google's oxygen supply os a kind of "MSN AdSense".
Sure, but I am talkin about data transfer over mobile phones, which is a different beast.

The usual way we make room : exterminate the former inhhabitants. Happens all the time. Why shying away?
