How much time, money and news cycles did we waste with Valerie Plame? Google would have told you she was working undercover at Nathan's. They even knew about it in Duluth. Well, I guess "Scooter" deserves to prosecuted not for revealing a known "secret" but for being a grown man named "Scooter".
I seriously doubt that terrorist organizations consider the Yahoo screen name issue a victory. After a full day of sending lackeys out to blow themselves up, what Islamic terrorist doesn't want to kick back on Yahoo and shoot the breeze with AllahIsGreat and ILoveAllah? Now they'll have to switch to MSN.
I think you are missing the point. Yahoo! is making a business decision based on a perceived risk that if they do not capitulate to the whims of fundamentalist Muslims, they will invite threats to their business and employees.
Sad part of Yahoo! (got to remember the exclamation point!) buckling under like most of the western media over Mohammed cartoons is that it shows to terrorists and their lackeys is that terror as a political tools works. It's not kooky right wing christians that are the biggest threat to our freedom of speech. It's fundamentalist Islam that seeks to regulate western speech with threats of violence from the middle east.
Mac OS X users can protect themselves simply by removing the check mark from the "Open safe files after downloading" option in Safari's preferences under the General tab. I have tested this and it works. This is quite a nasty little exploit so I suggest making the change ASAP.
I am not an astrophysicist and I was not sure that the Big Bang had been proved. All I was asking was for more info. How dare I ask to be enlightened? It's amazing how quickly people are to attack when you ask for more information into something they believe to be true. Looking at the reaction to my simple question, you would have thought I asked "What happened to cause the Big Bang?".
Anyone else having issues with multiplayer support with Call of Duty 2 for 360? Tremendous lag, 8 players maximum, no lobbies and other issues. The Xbox 360 is supposed to be a next gen console and the premier game is making it look like a relic from the 90s.
All I did was point out that grandparent was making a statement that he had no evidence to back it up with, which was his complaint about Oprah and Nagin. That makes him a hypocrite.
Except for the video showing Nagin and Oprah in the Superdome discussing the rampant rape and murder that they claimed occurred in the Superdome and a news report showing the complete and utter opposite. It's now hypocritical to provide evidence of people doing and saying exactly what they are accused?
What are you? A charter member of the Oprah Book Club? If so, you should be able to read, try to read the numerous rebuttals to your post. If you can read, you would have known I wrote grandparent.
Do you know for certain that they were deliberately lying? Or were they simply relaying false news, which one might reasonably expect in an emergency on the scale of Katrina. Unless you know for certain that Oprah and Nagin were conspiring to lie to and decieve the public, you are a hypocrite. You are deceiving the public using the same technique you denounce.
Oprah and Nagin were walking in the Superdome during this episode. They had first hand knowledge what happened in there by their very presence and Nagin's position governing the city of New Orleans. I don't subscribe to your "fake but accurate" argument.
Oprah ran lies about Hurricane Katrina on her show and she never retracted them. She allowed Mayor Ray Nagin on September 5th claim that "They're murdering people in there (the Superdome)." Louisiana National Guard and State health department officials said no one had been murdered inside the stadium. So what's worse? A book about an addict that was spiced up or a public official using Oprah's airwaves to promote false news to a nation that public policy might have been based off?
I just watched the video and it looks like the Octopus was checking what the heck this thing was doing in his environment. Once he/she approached the ROV, the guy operating it revved the motors and sprayed debris at the unsuspecting Octopus. How do we really know this isn't so some sort of sick and twisted oceanographer that gets his kicks off luring unsuspecting cephalopods into the ROV engine's thrusts? Sure he says that his little submarine was getting attacked but my guess this isn't the first time he has fucked with invertebrate mammals. I think there is more here than meets the eye. Where is ASPCA?
They mean installing and booting it natively, so you can dual-boot OSX or Windows, not simply running it in an emulated or virtualized environment.
Why is dual booting better than running both at the same time? This would not be a emulated environment but a virtualized one. There is no need to emulate the Intel chip. I am looking forward to VMWare jumping on the Intel Macs.

Can you imagine what happens when this thing crashes? That is going to be one long restore...
No it doesn't. Every hear of the thing that is 93,000,000 miles away called the Sun? It's causing global warming of Mars as well.

Has the Big Bang been established as scientific fact? Not saying it isn't, just would like some more info.
Call it the GNU\Creative Commons License. Problem solved.
When those damn kids won't get off your lawn!!!
If we blew up the Sun, we wouldn't have to worry about Global Warming.
You're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
Microsoft didn't write the game so I am missing your point if you had one.

I bet someone is just going to release Peregrine Falcons to troll the Pigeon blogs.

Apple is not the only manufacturer using the Core Duo chip.

Why would you emulate an Intel on an Intel?
Or were you trying to be funny?
Duh...
