Hulu also doesn't work if you block the ads. I'm sure there's a way to get around it, but if you just block the ads, Hulu never gets the signal to start the show again.
Destruction of property is not helpful for the economy. Any money that people have to spend on computers, they can't spend on something else. Sorry no free lunch here.
The best way would be to change the way we vote to allow people to vote for as many candidates as they want (but only one vote per candidate), then just take whoever has the most votes and they win. That way, no votes are wasted, and the most popular candidate still wins. Too bad people are too stupid and would never understand the difference between "vote for multiple candidates" and "vote multiple times".
I would refuse a breathalyzer test. If a cop is that sure they can't arrest me and do a blood test, and then I'll write some angry letters for them wasting my time. I'm not risking my criminal record on a device that overestimates at least 23% of the time.
The age isn't hard coded, there are probably just a small number of trusted sites (or maybe it needs to get a consensus?). How to figure out when a website is talking about age is probably hard coded though, unless Google already is Skynet.
Google already does this. It's giving you the answer and linking to the page that has it. All Google needs is to be able to use these things in the calculator ("circumference of the earth in furlongs").
Except UAC in Vista is stupid. I'm glad it warns me when a program tries to do something I may not want, but I don't need it to confirm every time I try to do something. If I'm logged in as an administrator, then YES I DO WANT TO DELETE THAT FILE.
Windows 7 fixes this by having three settings: "Warn me when anything tries to do anything needing admin priviledges", "Warn me if anything that isn't me tries to do anything needing admin priviledges", and "STFU". Although apparently the way they did option #2 isn't working out so well.
You're missing the point. Why does the court have to assume that people are innocent until proven otherwise? Because it makes sense. If the police arrest someone, you should wait until they actual present their case to decide if the person is guilty. Sure, there's no legal requirement for you give people a chance to defend themselves, but if you don't, you're still a douchebag.
I don't see why they don't take a motherboard like this and stick it in a normal sized laptop case (14.3"), with a massive battery. It's a laptop. I don't need super fastness, I just need a full sized keyboard, a wireless card and a battery.
I learned how to type and spell because of playing video games. That was MUDs though. I sometimes wonder how things will be different with newer games. It seems like people will still need to learn to type fairly quickly to play a game like WoW (at least if they want to be in a group), but it's not like a MUD where you have to spell everything perfectly because you're talking to a computer.
I think that would be too obvious. If I wanted to do Coke marketing in a game, I'd make Pepsi restore health, but Coke restore more. Of course, people tend to be easier to manipulate that I think, so yours would probably work too..

Too bad we wouldn't even be able to see the tiny explosion from here.
Yeah but how many times did you not vote for someone because of their VP pick?
The information came directly from the Ministry of Truth. You trust the Ministry of Truth right? Everyone else does.

It takes my laptop longer to hibernate than to shut down. Having a bunch of memory does have its downsides.

Atomic mass of plutonium?
Circumference of the earth?
Number of horns on a unicorn?

Oh and related to your "rupees in a dollar". "1 dollar in indian rupees" will tell you.

Or you could continue to not watch TV, not watch ads, and only buy things you actually want.
They used WorldWideWeb.app which is for NeXT.
HTML? Just point them to a page on the corporate intranet, they put in their login, profit?

Yeah seriously. IE may be crap, but why are we bashing them for fixing it?
I like BeOS. Better than anything else. Get off of my lawn.
And that's why I use Chrome now..
I think the fact that vegans turn down meat lovers pizza is the point..

My guess is that it's cheaper to leak confidential data all the time because of incompetence than to hire competent employees.

More information about you? Plus, they can.
Yes but if Apple fixed the problem, they wouldn't be able to sell matte displays for $50 more (only on the most expensive laptops of course).
