The one that makes sense is that there are options out there.
There is competition, and some of that competition has the connectors he needs. That means that basically Boxee has excluded everyone without HDMI from their customer base, while Boxee's competitors have not.
Which do you think is the better option? To limit yourself to a single output method and limit your customer base, or give options and open up your customer base?
I believe his point was is the survival of the human race important.
I gotta say probably not, that is if we are alone in the universe.
If we are not alone in the universe then the survival of the human race may be important for others, and well of course ourselves, but if we are alone and get wiped out then our opinion no longer matters because we no longer matter.
And don't forget that often times it is people such as myself modding the conversation. I try my best to moderate well, but on a subject like this I am outside of my knowledge base. I think that is a reason that so few comments on this story are modded much at all, besides the quality of some of the posts are just saying wtf without bothering to reading the article.
Slashdot does seem a bit desperate for moderation, I'm getting 30 mod points on some weeks, 15 at a time.
I'd agree with you if I hadn't been using their service for around 5 years for free, and had all my friends and relatives who needed a good home AV also use it for free.
They do have a paid version, but the free version is just fine. All they ask for is a little information you input yourself so its not like you even need to tell the truth except for a valid email address.

It's not like TV's only have one input type.
You must mean the *Windows* logo.
correct
Or, and stick with me because it is a stretch.
Use the Microsoft logo.
Check it out
The Android logo is used for Android.
The Internet Explorer logo is used for Internet Explorer
And get this
The Apple logo is used for Apple.
Considering this, shouldn't the Microsoft logo be used for Microsoft stories?
That was actually touched on a couple times in the article.
It mentions that Iran does have to get their components via the black market and that previously these purchases got routed via the EAU to Iran.
Check the pictures, it would have been a lot more impressive if they did photoshop it. All they are showing is some half empty racks.
Doesn't matter. Once consumers get hit by this they will freak out and the studios will find out how much of a bad idea this is.
The problem isn't passwords that are written down, it's where they are kept when they are written down that makes it secure or not secure.
A post-it note on a monitor? Not secure
A post-it note kept in ones wallet? Secure
Does that mean our bones are rusted metal?
Rusting happens to ferrous materials such as iron, so our blood is rusty metal.
Can we upgrade our calcium bones to a stronger metal?
That is one method of immortality.
It is a metallic glass, not a silicon glass like drinking glasses.
Look for cookware that has a titanium ceramic coating. It's no stick and won't contaminate your food with metal flavor.
Can you please state what makes you think we are in a cold war with China?
Capitalistic competitors, yes, but not cold war adversaries any longer.
Perhaps I didn't read close enough, but I didn't see anyone complying.
The FBI and NSA can ask for the moon, doesn't mean they are going to get it.
From reading your link perhaps you should have a case of Indiaphobia or United Arab Eremitesphobia.
There are other countries in this world with the pull to have back doors included, its not a u.s.a. specific issue.
I wouldn't be surprised if hacks such as that were the grounds for Intel developing their LGA design.
Saudi King saying the West should bomb Iran? Uh-oh.
Are you kidding? They have publicly given Israel permission to use Saudi airspace if they want to bomb Iran.

If we have no warning then yea you make a good point, but if we have warning then we can evacuate people to an alternate place to live.

There has been a few cases of a mule reproducing.

Actually I think he may be talking about Bakelite or another substance similar to it.
Isn't electricity once produced and connected to the grid a fungible product?
ie: it doesn't matter where the electricity comes from.
So which great infrastructure project do you propose that the US should spend money on?
I'd agree with you if I hadn't been using their service for around 5 years for free, and had all my friends and relatives who needed a good home AV also use it for free.

It would be made up for by the significant lack of accidents. One would hope.
