Yeah, Philips is known for having products with bad caps. I've had a couple Philips DVD players stop working for this very reason. There are whole forums devoted to the issue, you think they would have found a new supplier of low ESR caps by now. In any case no more Philips for me.
I guess the difference is that the Slashdot version wasn't written by a 13 year old and didn't have the title, "L0LERSKATES!!1look At what I found on teh intarwEb, its GOOGLE transpertation. YA RLY." Digg makes my head hurt.
I would like it to have a 6.8GHz processor with 1TB non-volatile Quantum-Optical RAM and a 2TB solid state AtomChip® optoelectronics drive. Oh and it should cost less than $149.99 and include a cool leather case.
So Linux desktop computers cost more than Microsoft Windows PCs do, and it's hard to find devices and drivers for Linux.
Linux works better with most hardware out of the box in my experience. Windows XP won't even recognize my SATA controller, and most of the other drivers don't work very well until I update them.
Oh, and buy a system without ANY operating system, if it still is costing you more find someone with a 3 digit IQ to find a cheaper computer for you. Besides this is mostly Microsoft's fault because they won't give special discounts to dealers that sell computers with no OS/Linux.
The guy running SuSE 9.3 sounded like he tried Linux for a grand total of 10 minutes, of course you aren't going to know how everything works in that time frame. Sheesh.
What I want to see are giant Telsa coils at airports, restaurants, etc. that shoot bolts of electricity out and recharge people's pacemakers. What could possibly go wrong?
CNN.com is reporting that two German students have invented a beer stool, or chair, that uses sensor chips to determine when the occupant it supports has fallen off and then radios for a cab.
So what happens with this little device during various sex acts?
What, are you afraid of feedback? I can just imagine it, the lights are down low, the mood is just right, your lips touch, then... WWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
I use AmaroK with the Last.fm Audioscrobbler plugin turned on, when I listen to a track it submits it to a database and compares that database to other user's database. It suggests a pretty diverse selection of music, everything from Iron Maiden to:Wumpscut:. So I would hardly say that ALL preference engines create a homogeneous selection, just the bad ones.
Slashdot Mirror
In other news Barbie Dolls are being recalled and given the Mature rating because mods exist that allow Barbie to go au naturel.
AVG, Zone Alarm, AD-Aware and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and you should be set.

So when can I edit CMYK screenshots of Duke Nukem Forever in GIMP?
Stupid cat wanted to borrow tree fidy, so I shot it.
I'm sure it's capable of large data transfer rates, but I bet the latency is terrible.

So how long until I can expect a bathroom Gorilla?
There are WAY more books on Safari than that page has. People might as well go to site you linked to though because the people at Safari treat customers like criminals anyway.
So...embrace, extend, and DESTROY!
I doubt there is a single person here who didn't think, "hmmm I could use one of these in my cubicle."

Microsoft ... Deep Throat ... customer pleasing
Is this what it has to "come" to for Microsoft?
So according to Einstein, in the future we will all be a bunch of dumb terminals with access to a central server, sort of like the Borg. Hmmm...
I don't know, but in space no one can hear you fart.
People shouldn't stay completely ignorant of how malicious code works, to prevent this kind of thing you need to know what to look out for.
Well I guess I would like to think that he is a living Tesla Coil.
This guy could get a pretty good job as a generator in New Orleans. I don't want to know where they put the plugs though.
