I don't think you really understand what "women in refrigerators" means. It's more the concept of a disposable woman to drive the male protagonist rather than any specific situation. The name of the concept might have changed if the comics code had not censored it but it had the same implications.

No offence but your attitude towards joe's wife is incredibly misogynistic. Why is she a goldigger who's so paranoid that one lunch with a coworker she interprets as cheating?
This could be a serious legal problem for men in the future. I'm not a lawyer, but based on what I've read the general guide is that if male reproductive material is used to produce a child, the biological father is liable for child support no matter what the specific circumstances are.
In the scenario mentioned by MarkvWI in his first quoted paragraph above, I don't think it is out of the realm of possibility that the man the blood was taken from could be held liable for child support.
Yes, because women are just bitches who want to suck money from the men.

I'm all for prosecuting people who are dumb enough to post pictures/videos of themselves doing illegal activities, but this is going too far. He was using his right to free speech.
Quite frankly, I would never attend a university like this, and I hope someone can take this school down a peg. You can't just silence critics.
What will this accomplish? How could any digital music player be educational if you gave it to teenagers?
according to TFA, it says it could be used to to transport or store digital documents and projects, or to listen to lectures.
couldn't you buy a cheap small flash drive instead? Floppy disks?
Could kids instead take notes at the lecture instead of listening to it later?
The money used to buy this could be spent on much more important things. Teachers, books, actual supplies, etc; This will only make students perform worse.
However, I doubt that even politicians would be dumb enough to pass this.
The last thing I want to do after working all day doing borning work is to come home and end up playing a borning game where I have to spend a 100+ hours to get a half way decent character
If you find a game boring, don't play it. Instead of throwing away your money to get to the fun part, play a game that you find entertaining. Isn't that the point of it being a game, to be fun?
What I want to know, what else does it do? If it can shut down a program, can shut down other programs? Will this also secretly enforce music DRM, or other such things? What else is it sharing with the mothership, other than this "Genuine Advantage"?
You are right. Several of my friends have created blogs, and are so proud they "made a website", and then they think there has to be an automatic tool of some sort to make more "web pages" instead of HTML. Also, they are gullible enough to think a blog is infallible no matter what. There is enough crap on the net already, please so clean yours up!

First off, it's old news. Mike Connell died a few days ago, at least someone could have reported it in a timely manner.
You must be new here.

You forgot about the .00001% chance of a necrophiliac robbing your grave and raping you.

Couldn't he just stop paying the bill? Wouldn't that cancel the account? Or is there something that I'm not aware of?

what if blogs are the most useful content?
If you think that blogs contain useful content, go read a few.
...for big buisness to enslave us. All it'll do is report competitors stuff as 'rootkits', while we are keeping our system 'secure'.
Is today a slow news day, or are the editors smoking somthing?

AOL + MS = A better Internet.
Right. And George Bush didn't win the election.
