I know, I could repackage Windows 3.1 and MsDos 6. It runs all of those old old programs, you can start up in ms dos almost instantly, and you get quicker windows boot time!
"Oh don't worry, they'll come up with a way to justify the cost. "
Well isn't it obvious? They sell every song at a loss, just like M$ and Sony with the game consoles. If it were Nintendo, the songs could be downloaded for 25 cents.
"Is that a euphemism for not raping their customers?"
No, it is a euphemism for not raping more than 30% of the market. Which sucks, because we only have two providers of cable. That means that 40% of the possible market has to go without. Or does it mean 30% of the remaining... or 30% of that.... I think that means that if you don't have 4 providers, than no one can have cable. I hate it when the gov'ment gets involved.
They are going to reinvent the world and put their billboard adds on other people's billboards in their virtual world. Somehow this will lead to a lawsuit because of the said companies think that the billboards look too much like their own.... I hate the legal system
I live in Indiana. Lately, the government has been doing anything it can to get more money. This year, they sold our tollway to Spain, talked about selling our lottery to someone else, raised cigarrette taxes by 50 cents, and now this. In my area, they raised property taxes by 58%. Think something might be up? Yeah, most likely.
"Why not just use nasa's lunar lander design?"
"Using the old Lunar Lander design in todays world of more modern technology would be like using a model T ford in a world of more modern cars."
They could probably make the same design with half the weight and all the circuitry in a board the size of a quarter. Kinda reminds me of what apple did back in the day.
We have learned from the RIAA, that if you share the first part of a song on a peer to peer network, with garbage on the end, it is legal. Therefore if we play most of a song, and make a low pitch noise at the end. Effectively cutting off the last half second of a song, we would not be making a full performance per person and the record industry gets jack squat.
I hear that the root DNS servers are monkeys. After all, at the root of all tree based architectures is monkeys. (I also hear that if you go to the edge of the internet, you'll fall off the edge of it!)
I am not sure if Jack Thompson was home-schooled or not. However, he does exhibit some tell-tale signs of it. He seems to be somewhat oblivious to how the real world works, and thinks that what he was taught as a kid is the whole truth. Pardon me if I offend anyone that was home-schooled, as Jack does not show any of the positive aspects of home-schooling such as increased book smarts... Now that I think of it, maybe he is just ridiculously stupid in all areas and mentally removed from society. Next step... physically removed.

I don't remember the Terrans being able to build floating data centers. Is that like a barracks where nerds are created?
Does this mean that I should run to the store and buy up everything on the shelves?

I think that I saw this in a movie once, only it was a spaceship instead of a car, and Fred Savage was the driver.
I think that they will sue the Internet. Al Gore better be careful, he may be an accomplis

"It's a claim by an official with a vested interest."
What does that matter? If you have vested interest, then it obviously works, otherwise you wouldn't be interested in it.
Did you crash in Area 51 and get it commandeered?
One more to go.
It got hit by impartial Slashdot and the leftist Digg.
"Smarter Teens Have Less Sex"... I think they mean... "Smarter Teens Get Less Sex"
"you think if I offered the FCC $50 they'd sell me the blue?"
No. They traded me blue for my first born.

It's not like this is Digg, where opinion is preferred over fact.

GPS 5000 has detected a less traffic area. Chance of survival... 38%.

I prefer to having Cracklings with my can of whoop-ass.
