Insurance companies won't necessarily cover that sort of stuff. I have a friend with just about every sci-fi/fantasy book published in the US in the last 20 years. He tried to insure them, but couldn't.
With the Wi-Fi, do your townspeople ever leave, never to be seen again? My son got rather upset when his favorite neighbors hit the road in the Gamecube version.
A far, far better way to do this in most of the U.S.:
Put the solar cells on the roof, and feed the power back into the grid, lowering your electric bills and your grid power consumption. Then buy a normal car. The grid will burn less coal, balancing out your auto emissions.
Indeed. I like the touchscreen, it really needs a PSP-size screen on the top half. There aren't any rumors of anyone making such a device, are there?
Also, are there any hacks to allow the DS to work like a Gameboy Advance or SP for games that make use of them as a smart controller? (For example, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles or Animal Crossing.)
I've known at least three adulterous, married people. In all three cases, the person's (unmarried) partner was well aware of the other person's married state.
I'm pretty sure there are more female hookers servicing cheating men than there are giggilos servicing cheating wives.
Yes, but there are plenty of unmarried men out there who get an ego boost from sleeping with someone else's wife. Open source here kills the proprietary market. The exact (unknowable) statistics might have men cheating more than women, but a multiplicity of sources claim that the percentages are pretty close (and depressingly high.) Past differences may have been due to more to women being at home with the children and pregnancy concerns pre-pill rather than any stronger moral sense or the like. Moreover, an unmarried person sleeping with a married person may not be cheating per se, but they certainly are behaving immorally under the tenets of the religions practiced by the vast majority of people.
Personally, I think that countries are able to reach better decisions when all points of view are considered but if the Chinese do not want freedom of speech then it is not my place, as an American, to force it on them.
The Chinese government is in no sense a democracy, and thus government censorship policies should in no way be taken as indicative of the desires of the Chinese people.
Does anyone know why the MacBooks, with x1600 mobile radeons, can drive an external 30" Apple display at full res, but the iMac, with regular x1600s can't?
Also, anyone know why the 17" iMac can't have 256 MB of VRAM but the 20" can? Is the VRAM something that is potentially upgradeable, or do you have to buy it installed?
My first computer? I had access to my dad's Apple III in high school (as well as some time on an acoustic modem to a Univac), and purchased an Apple II+ and Commodore 64 the summer after freshman year of college. Yes, I'm well out of warranty also...
I disagree. The only reason we have to lock our doors is because there is some problem with our society in that some people don't seem to realize that if something belongs to someone else, that you are not supposed to mess with it.
But you know these people exist. If desite that, you still insist on leaving your car unlocked with the the key in the ignition, I will blame you for being stupid -- and your insurance won't pay up.

Carbon applications are usually written in Objective C.
No they aren't. I'm a professional programmer for a Mac (and PC) program using the Carbon interface for Macs. As Wikipedia says, "Carbon is more versatile in that it may be accessed using C, C++, Pascal, Ada, or any other language with suitable interface headers, whereas Cocoa exclusively uses Objective C and Java." Most cross-platform apps use Carbon because Objective-C isn't widely used on PCs.
You may be right. At the height of the recession, we had to layoff several people. I still see one of them fairly regularly, and he says it was the best thing that could have happened to him.
In a stable ecosystem, in contrast, niches don't get emptied or added and hence populations stay more static.
But the earth isn't that static. Ice ages, volcanos, forest fires, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis and the like can all dramatically change an ecosystem. Moreover, consider that a mutation in one species, once it becomes widely propogated, might trigger a stress on a predator or prey of that species. PU is small-scale, catastrophism is large; catastrophism is also more likely to wipe out all members of a particular species.
My sarcasm detector must be malfuntioning. I mean you were being sarcastic right? Unless my memory is also malfuntioning, DVD's come in a protective casing.
That's as maybe, but get a DVD from the library, used, Netflix, etc. Apparently some people do use belt sanders on their discs. I've often had to use DVD decrypter just to recover a playable copy of a disc I was legally entitled to view, and even that doesn't always work.

Don't be fooled -- women cheat just as much as men. (After all, each hetero cheater has to cheat with someone...)

Hey, this is slashdot. Nobody else'll date us.

I dunno, my son questions a heck of a lot of what I tell him...
Actually, if you read the article, apparently it explains the French. (80% infection rate)
Or, the infected could try to infect the non-infected, to bring them to their point of view...
I work for the Department of Redundancy Department.
Which one?

Hey, whatever gets the votes, right?
Right, 'cause God knows pandering to "the Extreme Left" has been such a winning political strategy recently...
"Global warming" isn't an extreme left position, blaming global warming on humans is extreme left.
Yeah, you know, extreme lefties like John McCain and evangelical Christians. I hate them pinkos.
Mr. Deutsch, you're fired already!
And by now, he smells like one too!
Ironically, Darwin evolved, as does all code, through intelligent design.
Umm, not all code...
