Thanks to years of scientific engineering, a nugget of effort made it all pay off; along with an ounce of Christopher Reeves' ball sweat. If only we knew that deceased spinal injury patients' nasty taint sweat was all the antidote we need, maybe the federal government wouldn't have insisted on stifling stem cell research progress.
Which I already pointed out in my response to ArcSecond, it was more an off topic suggestion that their name was stupid than a bleeding edge opinion that was supposed to dictate the IT-ness of the article. I don't think someone would have a true motive to be argumentative when using an exaggerative Harry Potter line.
Oh, I'm not a scientist, ArcSecond, or interested in building an Easy Bake Oven, I'm just pointing out general idea behind the Christian Science Monitor is commendable and should be held to the highest standards of respect; a true science authority --no, not niche in the least bit in the area they service, Christianity, truly a firm built for the mainstream. The truth is, the article has nothing to do with science and rather talks about IT fluff. I'm more interested in projecting my opinion based off the firm rather than IT, and not letting it be dictated by how much of an "ass" I'm being.
Christians? Science? Does anyone see how the irony of their 'science' could limit this group to finding the clues of the newest Harry Potter book rather than being an actual source of credibility?
When reading the submission, I was immediately phased with it being more along the lines of shoddy advertising. Tech tips are one thing, but the "ultimate" solution to cooling is Icy-Flo?
Yes, the moderators tend to be bacon grease chugging war mongers who also enjoy pretending they don't know where they are when phoned by their friends with the question, "Oh, Andrew, is that your mom upstairs?".
1. A robot should never maul, using advanced grinding technologies, and fracture, disconnect, or inflict pain of, a man's penis.
2. The penis should become flaccid when individuals such as Zonk reference topics on the calibur of nonsense from L.Ron Hubbard/Issac Asimov.
3. Advanced intellectual property mind DRM technologies must be used to prevent the concept from I-Robot from being used in a Slashdot post.
Many people are seeing these types of drugs as performance enhancing somehow in children and teenagers, but the truth is selective seratonin reuptake inhibitors don't have an immediate effect, or when taken at a 'therapeutic' level, are not that mind blowing in effect. Benzodiazepines such as Xanax, Klonipin, or Valium are not likely to help anyone with their job unless the recreational intake and effect of euphoria 'helps' your job. Those are prescribed for those who have social phobias and panic disorders, otherwise they're not too useful.
Contrary to what the submitter says about Adderall "jacking your brain up", is also another gross generalization. Unless you have ADD/ADHD or narcolepsy its not likely to be helpful on a clinical level, but unlike most amphetamines it doesn't have too many side effects.
Most people who obtain prescription drugs are most likely to benefit from them and are relatively safe, and as far as SSRI's go, for example, recreationally students are better off without the drug due to sexual side effects, so they'd be more prone to be taking it for the actual label use.
Oh, for the not so indention crippled version (catch up to the times Slashdot!):
Whatever view you have of Hilary Rosen, don't comfortably hold your opinion, as it is possible that much of her blog post was poorly composed by the top dominating member of her life, the Reality Acquisition Device, and quite possibly tells her what to think!
"But it was the Reality Acquisition Device that really got my attention. As Gates describes it, we'll hold a portable device much like our Blackberries, Treos and the new Motorola Q that Gates was holding, and place it in front of us as we move through life. Our surroundings will be illuminated by more information - more reality. Have we been here before? where did we go? are there buildings or businesses that our social network of friends have told us about? what are the local issues related to those we have already expressed concerned about that the device remembers? As he is talking I am thinking about what a magnificent political organizing tool this is connecting old fashioned grassroots organizing principles with tools for feedback and action. Then he says something about how it will tell us about the restaurants in the area based on the food it knows we like to eat."
Catch that? Gates? This blood hungry capitalist uses Windows to watch lesbian porn, and must pay loads, happily, due to DRM from the Windows codec! Every lesbian (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/hilary-rosen/from-d -reality-in-the_b_21919.html)has a craving for it. Since she's too upperclass and civil to download from a peer to peer network, she is easily a proponent of DRM. These clues, which I have cleverly rendered together myself using higher end logic most Slashdot moderators would never dare to see at the end of the judgement tunnel, unconditionally proves it. She clearly has the testosterone to cold-heartedly have this view *and* whore herself to to the Huffington Post! Really, anyone who responds in opposition is a fascist.:-)

It really is important to note when someone tells Daniel, our ever challenged record setter, to get laid in some rude fashion, anyone who does this actually loves Daniel. I see this as, "Hey, friend. Good job. You didn't let 1983 down. Now how about you find a plow pal and thrust onward; breaching the gates of the unknown with your twelve inch dick!"; I know I only see that as a gesture of love.
We really need to de-associate the stigma with those who spends countless hours surpassing game records for years and years, as this is only a true contribution to society and enlightenment that, this fellow, Daniel, would do us all the favor to gratify our disbelief with such records! One minute and twenty eight seconds? Oh, jesus! Although I'm getting flaccid just discussing it, you know the silly bloke secretly did us all a favor! Oh, and sex addicts? See how cured they are after five minutes of Pitfall.
The Xbox must be an orgasmic machine with fabulous games for anyone who's been living under a rock for the last twenty years. But a part of taking the plea of ignorance is also accepting that it being innovative is exclusive to you, the beginner, not a matter of fact.
Also, people like you, the casual gamers, are less likely to try out the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 than they would with a Wii. The mainstream consumer being attracted to it is the result of its innovation, and for the hardcore gamer, makes controlling a game like an extension of your penis.
Its beyond me why people are willing to more intensely legislate against games than any other entertainment medium. Jack Thompson is shitting his pants to the idea of children being brainwashed, but is seemingly missing how that most bad behavior has to be more influenced by the parents themselves, the people they live with, rather than a daily hourly (depending on who you are) diversion.
Jack Thompson's efforts sure did pay off. Now let's hope he doesn't shit his pants when a child turns away from his E-rating saturated game library and turns on Scar Face.
Its not like the legalities ever got into anyone's way. If the rarity of a license removal were to be done, this may stop your average soccer mom, but most people may find a friend's copy or download their own copy of MS software and find the correct serial number/keygen. Idealogically, I think most people, at least, feel like they own the software they purchase. SaaS would make sure they don't even get the satisfaction of that.
Microsoft will gladly embody software as a service. Infact, it might as well be their idea, as they are going to be generating much more revenue by doing this, effectively screwing the customer who has to pay more for the same poorly written MS code, and the customer will be more along the lines 'renting' the code since the eons of service renewals will never relent.
The 'software as a service' structure could be one of the worst ideas ever. Google offers actuall services, to mix it up, Microsoft on the same terms would be taking the whole idea out of proportion. You don't want to have to, essentially, RENT Microsoft Exchange Server, for example, would you? As compared to Google, the software they do distribute is completly free.
Well, most people truly don't know that what they're buying is using DRM technology. To the sixty year old man, iTunes is a just a computerized vinyl store; they don't understand any of the technicalities of it, so it is a lost cause for the FSF to protest in the name of freedom, as it is an unstoppable force of greed that will ever exist. When it comes down to it, the FSF is better using the resources to reach the consumer in other ways, like giving out software like AOL gives out AOL disks. Infact, anything is better than alienating themselves from the already existent customers who purchase DRM products.
For what it is, a vocabulary usage of calling DRM "evil", individuals using their weekend to protest towards a money making machine; all of it is an unprofessional, religious, failed attempt to exert agitation propaganda to those who will be too money driven to actually listen to them. I'm certain that the FSF is doing this for their own ego.
Its a shame, as they do have a point, but as right as they are, I know the professional side of me wouldn't be willing to listen.
I think the author's primary point wasn't so much that he was surprised that the FSF was against DRM technology; I think its a very valid point. He was criticizing the self righteous, brute-force, way the FSF _communicated_ the point. Truly free software means letting those who write proprietary code write it freely. It would be a limitation to say that the 'spirit', so to speak, of free software ends when it is not in the FSF's curriculum of what's free and what's not.
Protesting like a gang of soccer moms is going to create an exception to the very mantra they've been speaking of for the last twenty years, and definitely is going to send the wrong signal to corporations such as Microsoft and the record labels.

The asimovian laws go something like this.
1. A robot should never maul, using advanced grinding technologies, and fracture, disconnect, or inflict pain of, a man's penis. 2. The penis should become flaccid when individuals such as Zonk reference topics on the calibur of nonsense from L.Ron Hubbard/Issac Asimov. 3.
