You know, there was also witness testimony that the suspect didn't commit the crime. It wasn't just the Facebook status that acquitted him. Now if the Facebook status was the only thing that showed he didn't do it and he was acquitted, then I'd say that's news. As it is, it's not news.
This is Slashdot! Everything MS does is bad. Everything, no questions asked! I mean, they won't even answer allegations that they sacrifice babies at the altar.
Then they'd figure out the data on these old DVDs are encrypted and can't figure out how to crack the encryption. Then they'd just go back to printing archaic porn on whatever recording device they'd have developed up to that point.
There really aren't any code changes necessary for Atom to run any of the other OSes at this point (Windows 7, Ubuntu, ect.). And the Atom supports the same processor extensions as the Core Solo that Apple used in the Mini. There's really no reason for OS X not to run on the Atom unless there is a processor check. The other option is that there is no processor check, but the installation of 10.6.2 hasn't been fully worked out by the Hackintosh community.
I have to say that the decline in manual transmission driving has really diminished people's driving abilities. It's one thing that the there's an acceleration issue. It's another thing to not consider putting the car in neutral when something like this is encountered.
After reading the article (yeah, I'm new here), he was selling modems and it appears he wasn't moderating the forums properly. People were discussing how to steal other people's connections on their forums.
The "top" people in both government and business are spoiled children.
They do seem to end up like that somehow. But there aren't. (eg. John McCain {before and after presidential election, but not really during}, Russ Feingold, Herb Kohl, etc).
From Bill Gates to GW Bush, they had everything handed to them, and when things got tough, their parents bailed them out.
Now hold on. Don't put Bill Gates up with GW Bush. Although Gates was born to a well-off family, his success is didn't have anything to do with his parents bailing him out.
In the socio-economic stratosphere of the US, it has never been about merit. It's always been about money, and now we can see what that has bred.
Give me one country where this isn't true, and I'll show you a poor coutnry.
We hear a lot about the sense of entitlement among the baby boomers, but it's almost always in the context of Medicare and welfare for the relatively poor. Now we see what this sense of entitlement does on the grand scale. It's ridiculous when GM assembly line workers expect health care in perpetuity.
First off, Medicare's going to be insolvent in a few decades. Second, if these people don't have medical insurance, that just puts more burden on Medicare and other state health institutions since they'll be the ones footing the bill for all those ER visits. The other option is to deny these people health care if they can't pay. And if/when that happens, we'll have finally become our own worst enemy.
The financial wizards of Wall St. have, almost literally, destroyed trillions of dollar in wealth over the last year. None of them think they did anything wrong, and any who are taken to task for this colossal screw up will cry about how unjust it is. When will people realize that handing the reigns of power to spoiled brats, who have no concept of the consequences of failure, is a stupid idea? Doesn't look like they've learned it this time. Maybe in 10 more years when the next economic crisis is screws everyone but the people who caused it.
Sort of. Wealth can't really be destroyed (unless you get a stack of bills and burn them) but is shifted instead. You know, it'd be fun to see the ending of Fight Club come true.
This says a lot more about Steve Balmer's competence than Bill Gate's geekness. A far as I know Steve Jobs is no geek, but apparently Apple's relevance is affected by him being there.
Jobs is not a geek per se but he talks our language, that's how he got involved with Woz. That and he has an uncanny insight into technology and how it can be used and popularized even when he lacks the technical skill to develop it himself. He's not a salesman (bullshit artist) like Balmer, but someone who can genuinely see how cool a technology is and then transfer that enthusiasm to other people.
Ah, so that explains the reality distortion field...
When I tried upgrading from Debian 4 to Debian 5, some things just didn't quite work correctly (mostly X Window related issues). So then I just deleted everything on the partition except/home and did a fresh install of Debian 5. Everything just worked after that.
The latest Windows OS I had installed was Windows 2000. I've had a 20 GB Windows partition that I use every time I upgrade hard drives (just copy the partition over and partition the rest of the space). I'm mainly using Debian, but bought the family pack to upgrade my computer and my wife's (she's not liking Windows Vista anymore). I just finished installing W7 on the W2k partition, and so far it's not a bad OS. My only gripe is that the installation overwrites the MBR so I had to use an Ubuntu Live CD to reinstall grub.
Point noted. But we're talking about a communicable disease here. The point of vaccination is to prevent spread of the disease to vulnerable populations. Workers with direct patient contact in hospitals should be doing what they can to ensure that they themselves are not spreading disease!

Yeah, but too bad FSM also condones eating babies.
Except their GPUs aren't fullly programmable in the same way that x86 processors are.
Intel didn't help themselves by making IA64 expensive to license and program for.
They did sell a decent Opel in the USA. It was called the Saturn Astra.
Screw that. Any geek worth his salt will write his own scripts. Hell, I used to write my own GuildWars scripts when I was playing hardcore.
Better would be to use public key/private key pairs and disallow username/password logins.

It almost seems that way. The Atom supports the same processor extensions as Core Solo, which Apple did use on the Mini.
Power steering isn't entirely necessary when the car is moving. And you get 3 full brake presses before power brakes go away.
There's always quantum mechanics to throw a wrench in there.
No it won't freak me out, because I know what I'm doing. I'd shift to neutral and turn off the engine. It's that simple.

What good did that do Jerry Yang?
Sounds like a hardware problem. It would probably crash with Linux on it too.

I'm sorry, but could you condense that into a 140 character Twitter-compatible post?
Well, that's easy enough. Just get 38 of these things, hook'em together and MosesJones, you will have #500 on that list!
