  1. Re:How much do slashdot readers earn? on eBay For Millionaires · · Score: 1

    Opera long ago came standard with a speech function . . . I say long ago because its been years since i've used Opera and no longer know if its still around.

    They are all over Evanston Ill, the city bordering Chicago to the north. I ran 2 in a row before my friend told me the lights are on the side.

  7. Re:Nonsense, the endgame is the same though . . . on New Jersey Outshines Most Others In Solar Energy · · Score: 1

    Well, I just moved here from Michigan, the land of the normal where you got an individual bill. Ive been told that we can do what I am on now, which is the 'average' plan, or pay a flat rate year round. Ofcourse both cases are pure bull, but I really dont have the time to be given the runaround which all this would entail. Sadly, i've almost accepted my fate (pretty much because im just surprised no one in this lovely state has tried to challenge this) :(

  8. Nonsense, the endgame is the same though . . . on New Jersey Outshines Most Others In Solar Energy · · Score: 1

    Would never happen in Maryland . . . BGE enjoys fucking me sideways every month. Why would states like mine, who dont charge you by kW used, but instead average your usage with everyone in your apartment complex and bill you all the same, do this?

  9. Why is this on the same network? on Spyware Prank Exposes Hospital Medical Records · · Score: 1

    Correct me if i am wrong, but medical records like this should not even be on the same network that connects to the outside. Corporations everywhere have dedicated intranets for such private matters along with a public internet that is 100% unconnected to the internal system. Poor poor poor structure from top to bottom.

    The problem with growing organs is that in order to get cells to multiply you have to disable certain genes in those cells, or at least reset their counters ....

    thats only 1 line of code that needs to be added . . . this shouldnt be too hard ;)

  12. Re:So.... on Verizon Sued After Tech Punches Customer In Face · · Score: 0, Troll

    This dude is in jean shorts, a green T and holding a glass of water . . . im 99.99999% sure that this is not his Verizon uniform, but they followed this dude home and caught a picture of him checking his mail. He probably looks pissed the hell off because there's 20 cameramen on his lawn for the 5th day in a row.

    But good job jumping to the conclusion the paper wanted you to jump to, all black men are thugs who just finished doing a bid.


    Yea, I cant really defend his actions, but that customer was probably the 15th straight guy who saw a black guy come to his door and ask for ID.

  13. Re:They wouldn't have arrested her on Woman With Police-Monitoring Blog Arrested · · Score: 1

    100% Incorrect. Go get a Top Secret clearance, enter a restricted area and try this. Depending on where you are you will be at a minimum arrested if not shot on sight.

    aye, but what kind of security system will work for you even after you choose to get rid of it? I kinda like the idea of a security guard that will take a bullet for ma after i've fired him.

    Re: to answer 1, 2 and 3. No.

    Look, its seriously time to stop pretending your silly excuses are valid. I will admit I download music/vids/etc, but it IS illegal. No seriously. Yes, some music through special online, downloadable vendors are legal ways to d/l music, but Kazaa is not. Limewire is not. Stop making excuses for yourselves and those who do this. Now, i am in no means a RIAA lover, but ignoring that stealing anything is illegal is irresponsible and childish.

  24. Re:Pringles FTW on Intel Wi-Fi Provides 6 Mbps Over 100 km · · Score: 1

    I was wondering if anyone else recalled this article. But the important thing to note here is the significant drop in power consumption, maintance, and increase in durability and signal strength.

    I would link the article, but ive tried searching for it and I cant find it . . just take my word :)

  25. Re:Call me a cook if you want ... on Discussion of Internet Addiction as Mental Illness Resurfaces · · Score: 1

    I like your spiel, even the sarcastic undertone to it . . . maybe you were sincere, but I see your point either way.

    But to play devil's advocate, WoW or BNet or other game servers do have ads. Im more of a computer gamer, so I cant speak for online console gaming, but I do see my fair share of ads on computer games. And while I cannot argue that anything to an extreme isnt an addiction, I would vouch that College BBall, Idol, Golf and some dudes favorite series isnt year round like internet gaming is.
