Amazon.com is shopping hub for millions of people.
Amazon.com has a auction site. Though, they dont push it a much as they should.
Amazon.com has a payment gateway.
Amazon.com owns Alexa.
Only the hardcore gamers pay $400-$600 for a game console. Nintendo markets their games and systems to families. Most families are under a limited budget. It's not cheap to have a family.
But I agree with you. I will probaly buy Wii over PS3/360 when it hits $150 mark.
Promote NASA via TV Commercials the highlighting archievements NASA has done.
Promote US Space Camp to kids and adults. It is a great way to get more people interested into becoming an astronaut.
Develop a business plan and start turning a serious multi-billion dollar profit.
Use the billions of dollars from profits to continue research without fear of budget cuts from the Federal government.
Call me paranoid but I would never trust a wireless network for security. Terrorist could employ Hackers to hack into the network. Why board the plane when you can just hack the wireless network and slam it into nearest building?
Patent laws need a change. People shouldn't get away with patenting ideas like MercExchange just did. "buy it Now" is an idea. It is not technology. Amazon.com's 1-click does the same exact thing.
Patent Law should be changed so only physical and exact things are patented. One should not be able to patent ideas. This includes software patents.
I would love this to take place in America. Replace all those crappy web cameras we have now with video cameras. We need to put them on every street and alley in NYC. I will safely bet it will deter crime. If people knew that millions and possibly billions (with the internet) could be watching them, they just might not commit the crime. Live TV recording makes for a great court evidence too.
If I was a business owner or IT manager, I would have said thanks for the notification and inform them I will be switching to Linux this week. I hate strong arm tactics and such tactics will never work with me.
No more Soda will be in Elementry and Middle Schools.
America's largest beverage distributors have agreed to halt nearly all sales of sodas to public schools -- a step that will remove the sugary, caloric drinks from vending machines and cafeterias around the country.
I guess America is serious about not being the sickest.
90s gave birth to many successes and failures in our past but does any one know why many went belly up?
Does anyone remember Hotline Software? It was supposed to create new way to share files with peers. Hotline Software ended up in a legal battle between the investors and it's creator.
One of the many successes of the era was Phatgames.com and it's many spawns. It was started by Ben Cathers.
The US Government can snoop on me all they want. I got nothing to hide. Bring it on NSA, CIA, and/or FBI. Here's a preview of my recent actions and thoughts.
1. I know US has 300 some nuclear weapons land and/or sea based. I know it's more but 300 is the declared amount. 2. I know the chemical composition of C4. 3. I know how to survive a nuclear blast. 4. I thought about perfect time for terrorist to strike if they could. June 6, 2006. (6/6/06) 5. I solved the world's global warming problems. Convert CO2 into Oxygen and build half a dozen enviromission power plants. 6. I was taught that a little bit of C4 goes a long ways. Navy SWCC told me that C4 the size of a pen can blow elevator doors wide open.
Of course, I am fiercely patriotic and would kill Bin Laden and anyone who threatens USA in a heart beat. And I watched United 93 movie. I'm not scared of the US Government and I got nothing to hide.
Hydrogen Fuel Cell vehicles are Electric cars. This car has finite supply of power. Fuel Cell makes it's electric power from a electrochemical energy conversion device that is similar to a battery. So if you live in California, aim to lease a Hydrogen powered car. They have dozens (16 in all, more planned) of fuel stations in SF and LA.
Slashdot Mirror
90% of all software (and games) in stores are overpriced.
If software publishers were to lower their prices, then there will be a higher demand.
How many more people will software if it dropped from $500 to $50-$100?
Software Publishers can only blame themselves for high rate of piracy throughout the world.
Also, high prices in commercial software helps open source software gain market share.
Will someone please think about Amazon.com?

If you hate ALL Federal taxes, then pledge your support for Fair Taxes.
If you want immediate help, move to a state that has adopted similar acts to the Fair Tax.

You are all wrong. It has to do with the value of the EURO compared to other currencies.
Ressikan flute.
That would be the only thing I would want. I would even learn to play a flute. It's to bad I don't have 2 grand to spend.
Exactly. If they are offloading their entire warehouse stock of props, this auction officially marks the end of Star Trek for CBS/Paramount.
On the other hand, I want NBC to buy back Star Trek franchise.

This Patent review is a result of Forbes news article about eBay's "Buy it Now" patent and the Supreme Court judgement.
Software and Business Method patents need to go and be banned.
I already made my position clear about these types of bogus patents. If you don't, read my comment over here.

I STILL use Wired Network for the Internet

What if Micrsoft chucked NT Kernel and built an OS using the Linux Kernel?
If I was a business owner or IT manager, I would have said thanks for the notification and inform them I will be switching to Linux this week. I hate strong arm tactics and such tactics will never work with me.
The question is, Will it work with Linux?
"What was I thinking? Now that the meds have worn off.."
Please, go back on the meds you crazy fool.
What about The Sims 1 and 2? There is nudity in them and it can be modded and turned off.

And did we really learn from our mistakes?
No, Pyramids are Landing pads for Goa'uld Motherships. There is so many damn landing pads. They are in Egypt to Mongols to Aztecs to Bosnia.
If the government wants to know my day to day activities, I don't really care. Only those who do illegal things are worried about government snopping.

I saw this too. Could mean more trouble for criminals and cities using facial recognition software.

I would gladly use Windows Live for the rest of my life when Microsoft sends me $1,000,000,000 check in the mail. Seriously, I would.
