"The worst-case scenario is never knowing the truth about anything because businesses have completely obscured reality in order to continue their pursuit of massive profits." - this is what we get for adopting capitalism.
"Post-secondary education in Canada is also the responsibility of the individual provinces and territories. Those governments provide the majority of funding to their public post-secondary institutions, with the remainder of funding coming from tuition fees, the federal government, and research grants."
I mean, it really depends on what kind of super power people are given. Like Meg in family guy was given the super power of growing long nails instantly, all they can do is to scratch people.
"The world would be a better place without them" - seriously? If they're all dead today I'm sure there's a bunch of people eventually will be come what you called 'lawyers'. Without the use of professionals, maybe we'll rely on the government or judges to kindergarten the parties involved in each case, sorta like Judge Judy? So we're looking at big tax raise for it, maybe unless we televise all the drama online. Or maybe we can just all move to a place where judgments are made very rapidly - how about China? Seriously, is there a better alternative or the so-called democratic society we live it today?
I understand it is total lockdown and all that DRM, but the argument along these lines all comes down to the presumption that iPad is a "general purpose computer" as the poster read. It is not!

Not unless you jailbreak it.
I agree - those for sure are a nutty bunch :)
You think religion and science is mutually exclusive and they are opposite - I think a big bunch even here on /. would disagree with you.
Remember though Canadian "conservative" government is very 'left' compare to the folks in south.

I would go further and destroy all DMVs as well.

...the chip is different but for whatever reason the Windows platform performance is extremely sluggish...
Maybe we lose some ability to store, but gain some ability to analyze more data, more complex environment?
yxplayer works fairly well - prepare your right nut!
Currently there's yxplayer which works ok and another one (can't remember the name) doesn't work very well. I'd love to have VLC!!
User experience is definitely paramount to iPhone success but I think the real issue is about app store revenue.
"such as titanium dioxide" but requires exotic Chinese cuisine ingredients????
Ha... if 3.3KHz was the accepted frequency all they'll hear probably sounds like bird chirping.
Compellent (CML) and Isilon (ISLN) that has storage virtualization technology?
... it's probably calculated into their cost / profit-margin.
It can be solved by introducing "urgent inbox", followed by "very urgent inbox"...etc.
Unlikely if a no-name Chinese manufacturer sells direct for $200 a pop with similar hardware: W1060G
Some of the 2600 games does show actual screen shot at the back of the box. http://www.atariage.com/box_page.html?SystemID=2600&SoftwareID=993&BoxStyleID=10&ItemTypeID=BOX
... I'll just ask the audiophile if they know what kind of cables the recording studios uses for their mics. Like this one...
Intel should follow suit and make the chips in 3D like the Tostito scoop - that is smaller than regular chips but hold as much if not more salsa.

Original StarCraft as well...
