This would be more of an issue if they had still been supporting PowerPC, since Leopard was the last OS X version for PPC (PPC support ended with 3.6.x.). It seems silly though that they discontinued Leopard support in the version right before the ESR. At least all Intel Macs can upgrade to Snow Leopard, and TenFourFox is keeping PPC on life support for now. Still, Mozilla's discontinuation of Mac platforms is widely disproportionate to their Windows counterparts.
Reading personal attack into regular language is textbook paranoia.
And therefore it is right at home on Slashdot.
On a more serious note, I live in an urban high-rise apartment building and get terrible Wi-Fi reception. While baby monitors and other 2.4 GHz devices may share some of the blame, my hunch is it has more to do with the 30-or-so Wi-Fi networks my computer can see (and however many it can't). I just switched most of my home network to olde fashioned wires, and things are running much more smoothly.
I know this is Slashdot, but at least try to write a decent summary. I had to read the article just to be able to tell what the summary was trying to say.
On two trips, we paused the game for a moment and walked away to do something. A week later, I come home from my trip and find the game still paused. Whoops! This works great... until you try to use the system again. Nasty error code and a $100 fix from Nintendo to get the drive to work again.
On a related subject, I've also wondered why they target ads to kids anyway. They can't drive, don't have much money and from my experience if I whined and pleaded with my dad to buy me something I saw on TV I generally got sent to my room.
Are you kidding? Child marketing is a huge industry. Coincidentally, I'm pretty sure Dante reserved one of the lower circles of Hell for child marketers.
This is the text I got on my cruise a couple of months ago:
AT&T Free MSG: Int[upside down question mark]l data rate of $.0195/KB applies. Unlimited domestic data rates do NOT apply when outside the U.S. Details: att.com/wirelessinternational.
I may have gotten it at one of the ports, rather than via the ship. Of course AT&T was nice enough to send me the free text after sending me a regular text from a friend, right when I turned my phone on.
What really strikes me as odd about the DSi is Nintendo's announcement that this will constitute a "Third Platform", not replacing the DS Lite but complementing it.
Nintendo said the same thing about the DS not replacing the GBA when it was released.

You really have no idea what you're talking about.
Neither do you. No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

Velcro ties are good. Twist ties are a cheaper option, if cost is a concern. Just save them from bread bags, garbage bags, etc.
Will my robot insurance cover this?
This post is awesome. If only I had mod points...
I've used idealist.org and Volunteer Match for listing opportunities at some of the nonprofits I've worked at. I suggest looking there.
Since you're already on a Mac, and may already have Snow Leopard, the text substitution would probably be the easiest and least expensive way to go.
It's an embedded YouTube video, not an image.

Don't leave the disc on!
Or just lay off the 10,080 minute movies.
Some people don't like to have half a dozen devices connected to their TV's if one device is capable of performing most of those tasks.
Certainly no one on Slashdot! That's grounds for having your geek card revoked.

If it's as obnoxious as Fludd, I'll pass.
I don't even know where the anti-France thing comes from. I just view it as a funny running joke.
It all boils down to the freedom fries.
I was going to comment that AOL disks might be collectors items someday. Apparently some people think they already are.
So your font is holier than thou?
Wait, a guy using a jetpack to fly over a gorge makes him a small step away from being a masked vigilante and winning the heart of Jennifer Connelly?
Perhaps the GP meant car park.
If you have GBA games, I wouldn't get one of these (since it doesn't have a GBA slot any more - that's how they got it slimmer)
Of course you could always play your GBA games on your GBA.

First off, that article does not confirm what the grandparent said. Secondly, I wrote that article. So take it with a grain of salt.
Wait, Wikipedia isn't an infallible informational resource?
It's faster because it's blue...
Yeah. The article seems to be nothing more than a vague summary of second hand observations about the video game industry.
