Your number is even higher than the one I got out of WolframAlpha the other day, which worked out to $1.379 billion (1.379x10^9 or in binary 1010010001100011101111011000000, ) per day. I am reminded of that Oreo video from a few years ago. Seems like if we'd bring some of our forces home to stand like an army aught, then maybe we could do something about the facts that schools are fail, infrastructure is crumbling, health care is a luxury, etc. This is an effing farce. We can't rub two dimes together to help our own people out, but we fall all over ourselves to make sure that the war machine is well oiled.
Or perhaps "capitalist societies" and "socialist societies" don't exist outside of textbooks, because real societies always contain some degree of each?
So, now I wonder whether a lurker is negatively contributing, or whether that requires the creation of anti-comments. In any case, I like this place enough that I leave the box unchecked, and just block the servers that dish up the ugly stuff (Spastic win95 dialog box looking things telling me I'm a winner, as an example from elsewhere.) I also wonder, facetiously, what you have against financial contributors that you would want to disable them.
"Weird. Slashdot lets positive contributors disable ads, but not financial contributors."
I can't speak to the financial end of it, but I can tell you that despite my karma being "bad" for almost my entire stay, here, I have the checkbox. So, yeah, that's weird.
This is the first time I have seen a submitter respond to any kind of complaint about a submission, here. I consider this a small miracle, and I thank you. Now, seeing the editors editing on top of that would be a bit of a shock to the system, so let's don't get carried away.
I've got an LG101, and it's pretty dumb. Voice and text, and some data options that aren't in my budget to explore. No camera, no music, and the USB cable I bought doesn't give me access to the filesystem (It only charges the battery). You are right, though, it was dirt cheap, and I can't really say whether it's "nice".
Not to mention the fact that wife is going to need to explain what she was doing on new dating site in the first place. Of course, maybe it will all be for the better, like that song about liking piña colada.
Unless you give a crap. From Merriam Webster: transitive verb
1: to consider the merits and demerits of and judge accordingly : evaluate It is my job, or obligation, as a voter, to do exactly that. I say "my" job, because I have to assume you live under some dictator and fear becoming disappeared, with that attitude.
Mirrors, like compact discs, reflect from the back side, so while the thickness of the glass might cause some refraction, the reflection is still happening close enough to the dish to far outperform foil.
In addition to fake streets, they also just move some real features. I noticed a certain S curve that I am familiar with was shown in my atlas, but about a mile down the road from it's actual location.
Or when a deer jumps out in front of you. Or somebody tries to pass coming up over the hill from the other direction. I met both of these situations early in my driving career, the guy in my lane was while I was still on my learner's permit. I was glad that I already had years of fake experience. Games DO offer positive feedback, in that not crashing lets you win the race, and even in games where crashing is part of the fun, staying in control makes a difference.
Highly rated responses to low rated parents hide. Mentioned here The moderation system was supposed to "let the cream rise to the top," if I remember right. Now I basically have to expand everything, because there isn't even an "N responses" clue to let me know where the diamonds are hiding. Also, following a link to a comment takes you to the top of the tree, with [seemingly] everything hidden. ("Here" is a few clicks deep in that link, for example.) ALSO, it seems that half the time, when I click on a front page headline link, the story folds or unfolds once or twice before actually behaving like a link. I could care less about how the site looks (I could, but it wouldn't be worth the effort), just let me at the content.
Slashdot Mirror
Thank you for mentioning P2P DNS. I was wondering what the internet was planning to route around the damage.
Isn't that what they call a credit union? I'll see you there.
Nice catch.
1 mile = 1.609 km
2 km = 1.243 miles
Pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, corn and cotton. Big, big money.
Wait, no, sorry: Think of the children! Drugs are bad, m'kay?
Can and do. I'm on hiatus right now, because I'm not the kind of guy who cheats on a test.

Interesting. Thanks. *yoink*
Naw, everybody is just pronouncing it wrong.
He could, but it wouldn't be worth the effort.
Can we at least discuss this like grownups?
No, you! lalalalalala. I can't hear you. pbbbbbbbt!

And you are the man. Please accept my +1 commendation for your effort to stick a boot up hate's keister.

If you have any more info on this, I'm interested, and my Google-fu is not strong enough.

We are alone.
Prove it.
Quantum physics doesn't specify "by us".
