No, it is bootable but the live bit is because you can run a live OS directly from the CD. Not just boot the machine into DOS but have everything from web browsers to office suites.
Look, I feel for the handicapped....and I'm for helping them when it is practical, but, when it comes to something like changing all our money, something the overwhelming majority of people can deal with....do we have to cater to every minorities needs?
Yes, you do. Almost everyone can be a minority in some way, at some time, and when you're discriminated against because of it you'll hate it.
This is not good news because if people think that the problem is not serious enough to warrant attention, society will not change its bad habits. Burning fossil fuels, driving polluting cars, and spewing chemicals into the air and our water supplies must not continue. Gas prices work similarly. A drop in prices is not necessarily good news because it will discourage people from acting to move away from our Middle Eastern energy dependence.
Why has this been hidden by the mods?
This is a valid point, there are some who still dispute global warming exists and to them this is complete proof they are right. I can't believe anyone is willing to gamble on this.
I hate it when people always dismiss things like this as paid for by Microsoft. That guy could very well just be a genuine idiot, and yet you're trying to insult him by saying he's corrupt as well.
To be fair if it wasn't so plausible people wouldn't be so quick to think it. You can only base your assumptions on history and Microsoft's is chequered to say the least.
The voice prints are coded to recognize different accents. I'm a native English speaker (Philadelphia, PA). But I had a better time using the UK english pack.
Granted in a perfect world we wouldn't have to mod things to get them to work...
This was Flamebait, a slightly modified Bill Hicks quote was modded Troll, and most of the last 24 comments are still unmoderated. What happened to the slashdot moderation system? Did it start choosing only the users who registered within the last few days?
You can't moderate if you comment. How many Slashdotters are not going to want to say something about Starwars?
It's interesting that because slashdot tends to stay in a single age group, most of today's slashdot readers weren't alive when the first trilogy came out. The lightsaber swinging, cape wearing, watergate babies that grew up watching Starwars are now really old, carrying around babies, wearing suits to the office, and couldn't care less.
Why hasn't this been modded, troll or flamebait or something? And get off my lawn!;-)
The only reason you remember it is because someone had the gall to do it to Americans. Terrorism happened all over the world before then but no one ever cared.
Americans actively supported the terrorism in Northern Ireland, of course that sort of terror was fine.

It's nearly a week ago. I guess there are those who forget that quickly.

Core, really?!
This was in the US? The alternative is they could have shot him, hmm, I'd take the shock.
Comments on the video clip also suggest this tasering was justified for action occurring before the camera starts up.

Sitting at $800 right now, I'd hate to click the Buy it now button though!
How did you figure that out? I saw a Gnome DE but I don't know the calculations to work out KDE from that? Just double the time it takes?
What did he pay? If he payed it then it must be a cable or rope or something!
Did he loose his way with it?
Honestly this is getting rediculous!
Having these in the comments is one thing but what are the so called editors doing letting these things go? Edit the damn summary!

This is another Slashdot effect!
Sarcasm or stupidity? Going north from the SOUTH pole would mean it got warmer!
English is by definition native to England, which last time I looked was part of the UK.
I think the Mozilla team have proven you can code for free. internetnews

Erm, native English is the UK?

I think you'd get a lot of support for that idea, from the women themselves.
Yes, social interaction, atmosphere, making friends etc.
It's not just about the game, there's more to it than that.
but do they get a discount if they also have a coke and fries?
This is not news, oh this is /.
