What? No broadband Internet? I'd go to a corner and then cry my heart out. Oh why! Oh why must I have no Internet! The horror of not being able to troll slashdot and other forums. The horrors of not whining and griping about my situation in life while millions of Filipinos go hungry.
When you have so much Intelligent Design/Creationist proponents in positions of power it is natural that science education will suffer. There's always importing more Indians/Filipinos/Chinese nationals to do the heavy lifting.
It's like having Satanists run a local Baptist Church. No good will come of it.
The X-Files lasted 9 seasons/series of 20-30 episodes each. TNG, DS9 and Voyager lasted 7 years each with 20-30 episodes each. SG-1 lasted 10 seasons of 20-30 episodes as well.
Why in heavens name would they be burnt out with 3 seasons with only 13 episodes each? i'd understand your standard US TV show but a UK show that churns out that few episodes shouldnt be complaining.
I'm thinking the writers are just being honest that they cant write proper stories no more.
Anyone in retail can tell you that places that celebrate Christmas generate substantionaly more sales than the months after. That's why video console makers always release their consoles a few months before December. I'd liek to see a comparison of the same period of decline to of the past years. If it was lower then I guess the iPod has peaked.
After tonight I dont think people who are old & computer novices should be allowed on the Internet. For one thing they do not want to be taught on what's what and what's not. They just assplode when you teach them how to do things and insist on there way.
There's one company now you can sign up and you can get a movie delivered to your house daily by delivery service. Okay. And currently it comes to your house, it gets put in the mail box when you get home and you change your order but you pay for that, right.
But this service is now going to go through the internet* and what you do is you just go to a place on the internet and you order your movie and guess what you can order ten of them delivered to you and the delivery charge is free.
Ten of them streaming across that internet and what happens to your own personal internet?
I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?
Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially.
So you want to talk about the consumer? Let's talk about you and me. We use this internet to communicate and we aren't using it for commercial purposes.
We aren't earning anything by going on that internet. Now I'm not saying you have to or you want to discrimnate against those people []
The regulatory approach is wrong. Your approach is regulatory in the sense that it says "No one can charge anyone for massively invading this world of the internet". No, I'm not finished. I want people to understand my position, I'm not going to take a lot of time. []
They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck.
It's a series of tubes.
And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.
Now we have a separate Department of Defense internet now, did you know that?
Do you know why?
Because they have to have theirs delivered immediately. They can't afford getting delayed by other people.
[]
Now I think these people are arguing whether they should be able to dump all that stuff on the internet ought to consider if they should develop a system themselves.
Maybe there is a place for a commercial net but it's not using what consumers use every day.
It's not using the messaging service that is essential to small businesses, to our operation of families.
The whole concept is that we should not go into this until someone shows that there is something that has been done that really is a viloation of net neutraility that hits you and me.
From the early '90s, this is VERY rough proof-of-concept footage from when Paramount contracted Digital Stream to insert computer-generated effects into the original Star Trek episode "The Doomsday Machine". Nothing ever came of the project
Slashdot Mirror
The first 800Mhz Macs came out at Macworld NY on 18 July 2001. That's over 6 years ago!

Seriously, the Interweb isn't life.

This year's the year I'm getting laid! I shall be no virgin anymore at the age of 27!
Mr Worf, security alert. There has been a security breach.
Will Linux pull out of repressive govts or will it stay?
If they knew more about tech they'd be working as tech support. The Internet isnt made out of tubes. They're made out of pipes.
No IP over Firewire support either

If Apple slacks off and produces products that are constantly inferior to competitors then it is possble for the iPod to become another "Mac".
This is such a shitty topic
I think the reason so many people still buy CDs is because they're tangible items unlike iTunes downloads that is "just" bits and bytes.
Hmmmmmmmm... permafrost melt.... :P~~

It is funny because it is true. I'm surprised that no mention of Linux was part of the Slashdot ultimate blog entry.

There are still those who want the luxury of an Open Source OS that's free like beer. Just ask any starving student or long haired hippie. ;)

So long as you're not using an Apple laptop then I don't see anything wrong using it in bed. We wouldnt want any explosions happening do we? :)
Gago ang Apple kasi pinapahirapan ang Pinoy.
Microsoft was mentioned in the article ergo this is a YRO. Blame /. fanboy bias.
Beware Mozillans...
