And I may be in the minority, but I would pay X amount of money for open source and free apps that were compiled and packaged. (X being reasonably small.)
This describes me. I used Grooveshark to find specific songs I want to hear (and you can find almost anything that's not very obscure). For just listening, I still use the Internet radio stations found at Shoutcast.
They will be accused of infringement on three counts : infringement by thought, infringement by word, infringement by deed, infringement by action - *FOUR* counts!
I say this with all due respect, but you've got this all wrong. Pharmaceutical and insurance companies supported "Obamacare" because of its particular implementation. Instead of nationalizing health care, and going to a "single-payer" model, they introduced broad regulations, including requiring citizens to purchase private insurance. Thus, health providers were saddled with some extra regulation, but they were promised a customer base like they had never seen before. I believe they saw this as a net plus.

My computer IS from the 1960s, you insensitive clod!

Just carry a newspaper.
This could be the best thing for this country.
Yes, that guy's a complete idiot. I mean, have you seen him in the commercials?
Allow me to express my approval, also, by attaching it to this relatively early post! It's nice.
Really, does anyone think there would be any serious commentary under this story? On Slashdot?
We're expecting your family to chip in a few hours, as well.
Do your knees hurt from all that jerking?
When Congress works hardest, the nation hurts most. Can I hear 8 days a month?
I thought Myst was a puzzle/adventure game, and was meant to be won. Right? Or wrong?

Can the scripts be in 3-D? Thank you.
As a wise man once said, "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again."
His what?
A couple of relevant quotes from last night's losers, of either party:
"The voters have spoken, and if that's what they want - the hell with them." - Ted Baxter
"The people have spoken, the bastards." - Dick Tuck
But wouldn't these folks' parents have a landline? Perhaps with an extension in the basement, so they would have a chance of answering the call?
The Obama administration now appreciates this all too well.
Don't worry - there's a little piece of hardware you have to buy, that you hook up to your DVR... so that helps, right?
I was about to post it, but you beat me to it! Absurdly close to the modern lolcat!
Is this the magic incantation needed to keep your post from being modded down to Hell?
