So, you think that keeping this guy in jail is worth more to society than the erosion of the rights represented by this decision to not hear the case? I think that we could afford to let one child pornographer walk free if it meant that PC's and information on them were safe when bringing them to be repaired/upgraded etc. Your view seems a bit short sighted.
There is a bluetooth device that will couple with your cell phone and let you use regular telephones inside the house. Basically you plug this device into one jack, and then it will ring your phones in the house when the cell phone rings. No need to go searching for the cell.
I think men are just getting less intelligent and they think differently than they used to.
You see, in the 200+ year history of our country, we've sent our strongest, mentally stable and most intelligent men to die in wars and left the weaker and less intelligent and mentally unstable at home to breed. Through unnatural selection, we've thinned our own gene pool. The male gender has become more effeminate and now it seems they think like women instead of men. It's not the women who are getting smarter, it is us men are are getting dumber.
No, I am saying that because I spend 12 to 18 hours a day at a desk doing system administration, writing scripts to make my job easier and countless hours on the phone helping an endless stream of helpless lusers, that my once buff 185lb body is now a rotund 285lb body, and I've become so out of shape, that I'd probably collapse from a heart attack if I tried to pedal past the end of my driveway.
I said half a billion, looks like I was off. The population of China when I looked here at 3:36pm Eastern Daylight Time on 25 March 2009 showed a population of 1,319,175,333 people.
One would assume that only a portion of that number is government and military. Another portion is either too young or too old, but I am sure that still leaves a big enough population to stand up against their government and end the oppression. For whatever reason, those people choose not to do so. Their government is their responsibility, not ours. Now if the government of China tries to pull the same crap here in the states, they will find we don't roll over so easy and there will be people who will stand up against them. For me, I am ready to give up my life before I would ever live under such rule as the Chinese people CHOOSE to live under.
I don't live there, it doesn't affect me. If I did live there and it did affect me, I would stand up and do something about it even if it meant giving up my own life. Apparently the half billion people that live there are satisfied with how life is otherwise they'd stand up and overthrow their own government.
I am ready to do the same here, if our government keeps heading in the direction its going.
...before it crashed to the ground. The booster landed softly without any damage.
It's only a joke that any crash you can walk away from is called a landing. So did the chutes not work and the thing crashed? Or did they work and it landed? Make up your mind!!!!
So was it a software hack that allowed the camera to operate the baloon, or was it a camera-equipped weather balloon? If it was camera operated, would it operate other things such as drone planes and kites?
Cities would seem to be the most viable option, but we'd kill millions of innocents along with the bad guys.
Any adult that sits by idly and permits their government to commit atrocities cannot be considered innocent. We in the U.S. are not innocent of the actions of our government, nor is anyone in any other country regardless of the type of government they have.
How about just not having sex. Or, and I don't believe in it, use contraception. Why does anyone have to die just because a couple of people got their rocks off?
Wrong, we aren't against choice, we are only against the specific option of death to the unborn. There is still choice, but it comes after the baby is born. Keep it or let it be adopted.
Well known company to whom? Computer geeks, but you forget there are all different kinds of geeks on slashdot. Space Geeks, Biology Geeks, Chemistry Geeks, Genetic Geeks just to name a few and as I browse the front page of this site it appears there are stories that suit all those interest.. You act like everyone should be aware of a computer hardware manufacturer, so I hope you hold yourself to the same standard and are aware of all the big names in all the other fields covered by slashdot news. If not, you are a whiny hypocrite.

I Imagine GM and all the other car makers would be flush with cash if they could have gotten a cut of the sales from the used car market.

Just because the intelligent people aren't volunteering today, doesn't mean they weren't drafted during the major wars.

For me a bicycle has a range limit to about the end of the driveway.
that there isn't a command or language called BATE. Of course most of the people here wouldn't need a manual for that.
Just to make sure I got this right, I am going to apply fair use of your statement.

From the summary " According to their twitter page, police have raided the home of Wikileaks.de domain owner ...."
I can just see it. "Arresting transsexual prostitute on 5th St." and "Eating a free jelly filled donut"

The only truly innocent are the children.

Oh man I wish I had mod points.
If you have to wind it up, you are exchanging one form of energy for another. It is not self powered.
Oh, jobs, no Jobs.
From what I understand about my ex-wife, that would be up to her chin.
