the patch didn't disable the warning. it updated symantecs product so windows could see that it's there and know if the definitions were old or not. you could disable the warning yourself if you didn't want to update or patch your A/V.
unless you are a gamer, a pc should last you more than 2 years. we upgrade professors computers every 3. those machines get handed down to administrators. we probably get 5-6 years out of each machine. and yes, they are loaded with most recent os/apps. they are't zippy or snappy, but they run productivity apps, email and web just fine.
you are missing the point of the FSM. it's because IDers want to say "it was designed, but no necessarily by god". it's the "i don't know who" with a wink. the FSM is calling it out.

umm.. talk about blowing things out of proportion. you went from smoking to al-qaeda to nazis. i've got some WMDs in my pocket i guess. btw, i guess we should also ban SUVS, geriactric drivers, improper raising of children, etc. anything that harms society as a whole. if stench is such an issue, we should promote smoking hookahs instead. oh, yeah and more frequent bathing.
of course that wouldn't happen since there is too much money to be made. if we aren't going to make it illegal, just STFU. i can't stand all the "i don't like it, so noone should be able to do it". i don't like body odor, doesn't mean we should ban the french. wanna eliminate everything that causes health problems, good luck. insurance costs? well, i'de like to ban a lot of xtreme sports to lower my insurance costs too. oh well. if your going to let it be legal, get over it. resturaunt and bars should be allowed to make their own rules. most smokers (including myself) don't smoke while they eat and don't like smoke around when they eat. i doubt a voluntary no smoking policy will hurt a resturaunt. if anything, it would help. seeing as how most ppl hate smoke around their food, they would avoid resturaunts that allow it. those who can't get through a meal without smoking can go to the ones allow it. everyone's happy (except those who love to enforce their morals and preferences on others).
the point is, you will have the information, and thus the choice. if the cost difference is not that much, it won't be worth it. you won't drive down the road to save $.30 on a lbs of sugar, but you might for $200 if the tv you are looking at is on sale elsewhere. a lot of shoppers like to know they are getting the best price. this will let you combine impulse shopping with bargain hunting. if walmart truly believes their prices are the lowest, they will love this.
even if the panny had the pointing stick, it's still not a tablet. i have a latitude x1. it weighs in at 2.5 lbs. but i wouldn't compare it to the x41 tablet cuz mine isn't a tablet. the x41 probably the lightest convertible tablet around. you could just get a slate, but that wouldn't have the "nipple" either. it wouldn't even have a keyboard..
why would you need to prop the ipod up? last time i checked, you could operate it one-handed. unless you use both hands to jerk or have only one hand, this is not a problem. if the latter is true, i apologize for being an insensative clod in advance.
umm.. i think you misread. apple isn't stopping the porn industry, the porn industry is refraining (so far). there is no way apple can stop them if they wanted. if you support a video format, you have to play whatever is encoded in that format (wether it's an ipod, a tv, or a computer). it's like saying "apple won't allow lame songs to be played on the ipod, but creative and iriver will because they are desperate". i understand you want to clap for apple, but isn't really about them this time. besides, watching porn has nothing to do with "values".
also, i'm sure apple might secretly encourage the porn industry to setup on the ipod. not that the ipod needs any help, but having the vote of the porn industry is a big boost. just look at vhs.
the heading threw me off. i was thinking some kind of new spam filtering technology in which good emails with non-spammy qualities get through to the inbox. i imagined a darwinian inbox that shrinks on it's own as crapy messages are deleted in favor of good ones. guess i gotta stop smoking early in the morning.
sounds a bunch of doctors just wanted a to get the hospital to buy them ipods. there r cheaper solutions out there than this, but not as cool or/.worthy.
while i hate seeing terms like "ipod-like devices" (it's like saying trinitron-like devices or big mac-like sandwiches) you have to be kidding if you've never seen anyone with an ipod. every teenager and grandma has them in the subways in nyc, along with razrs and mcds.
LOL, took me a second to figure out what you were refering to figure out what you were refering to. gotta start reading my racist dictionary more often.
while i agree with a lot of the things you said.. you are pretty much waving a cowboys banner at a redskins game (football teams for those of you who never leave/.)

after all, they just want to "think different". i know that's supported on /.

i see the hook. i read the line. just waiting for the sinker.

just put in a sony audio cd and the box is p0wned
ah, i thought i was the only one. i thought maybe i had some weird combination of extensions. anyway, we should file a bug report about it.

cept the photo ipod doesn't display just any jpegs u have on the drive. it shows the "optimized" ones that itunes puts on there.
but if he hadn't used an ipod, it wouldn't have been posted on /.
i wonder if microsoft is technically owned by a canary.
