I think that Microsoft should be Stricken because the 50 minutes spent on their site was trying to find a TID or get to a page that has some relevance to what your search terms were.
I am *not* a grammar Nazi.
But that article was horrible. 'Thrown' instead of 'throne', a bunch of they're/there mistakes. 'Hurtle'?
I am starting to see the advantages of the print media- at least they had editors.
must ask, is Sony placing to much faith in the Playstation
Yeah... I stopped reading at:
"one must ask, is Sony placing to much faith in the Playstation"
If you have a valid point shout it from the mountain tops. However... Use correct grammar. It really is not too hard. Otherwise you look unprofessional.
If you want a story posted on Slashdot... Submit It!
ps: Informative is spelt Informative.
Good. If it is patented and the company (Immersion) was using the patent I think this is a good thing. Patent infringement isn't cool. If this were a case of a patent troll like NTP, I'd be all for Sony but in this situation... Sony screwed up. Pay the price. Is Sony still keeping it's head above water? Cause they have been screwing up pretty much weekly.
I'm still getting a PS3 when it comes out. Winter 2007!!!!
Chinese citizens are pretty BA.
They tricked all of western news media into thinking their websites got shut down.
I think that they don't care if they get coverage be western media when that does happen. I also don't see how this is statement about free speech. It seems more like a statement about why they don't mind being censored. Silly Chinese. Always owning Western society as a whole.

Chinese Government: You're going to shut down your blog or else! Blogger: Or else what Beijing?! Chinese Government: Or else... You can never see your family again. After shutting it down, open it back up and then say this *hands him a sheet of paper* Blogger: *crying* Okay... Just don't hurt Ding. Chinese Government: Oh by the way have you ever heard of Tienanmen Square? Blogger:....No.
...narf2006 may choose to sell the hack as shareware and make a pretty penny more than the US$12,000...
That statement pisses me off. The $12,000 is there as a reward that was paid for by people who wanted this to happen. If he has the balls to want more than that he can sit and spin and I'll wait for someone else to come up with a solution. I can understand not releasing the details yet because he doesn't want 20 other people to pop up saying they had it "first." I know $12,000 isn't the greatest amount of money but I'm sure he'd make more than that in the long run anyways. At least he'll get a huge e-penis.
FTA: Even Sony Computer Entertainment president Ken Kutaragi has been quoted as saying "It'll be expensive [...] I'm aware that with all these technologies, the PS3 can't be offered at a price that's targeted towards households."
Hell Yes! I've always wanted a PS3 at work. I knew it would happen!
It won't cost $1,000,000 and thanks to Sony not having Microsoft's "Rush To The Market" attitude you don't have to worry about it melting to your carpet!
Hello Idiot.
Libertarians... Froth. You are so damn cocky. I am glad you know what is best for out nation Cornswalled. I trust you. Honestly though. I think you're just a piece of slime. I'm really glad that "the US prevented a WTC attack"... They should have done that without my goddamn rights and liberties being sacrificed. Have you ever been anywhere outside the confines of the United States? Or have you ever seen a good old World War II movie? The German side where people's houses were searched? I don't know about you but I'm not okay with a police officer pulling me over for fun or my house being searched when I'm not home because I'm a terrorist. Have you read the Original or the "Revised" Patriot Act? Try to figure out the exact description of a terrorist. It is anyone and everyone. I am sick and tired of people saying that anyone who actually gives a fuck about their rights is a hippie liberal (I won't even discuss the libertarians because you don't know what they are). People who care about their rights are more of a Patriot than you will ever be, driving around in your lifted truck with a hemmie, and American Flag painted on the back and plastic testicles hanging off your licence plate that says, "These colors don't run" or "United We Stand" or some other propaganda bullshit. If we really stood united you would help out your neighbor when he dropped his groceries or defend that muslim guy at the bar all your friends are harassing instead of sitting in your house watching American Idol being worried about who is going to kill you and your family.
I'm fucking sick of you and everyone like you. Get some balls and defend your goddamn rights!
I know people have already said this but I think it's such a good point it should be mentioned again.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Get a CRT monitor and place a cell phone next to it while it's on. Call the cell phone. The screen will flicker.
Get a set of speakers and place a cell phone at the base of the speakers. Call the cell phone. The speakers will make a noise.
Cell phones effect electronic devices. Period.
Many medical tools are very sensitive. Better safe than sorry.
I'm going to find out how much this stuff is and put it in my cellar in the back yard. Stop my victims from calling for help. With cell phones getting smaller and smaller it's hard to find out where they are hiding them -- especially when they are on vibrate!
No but.. Really.
Hospitals, Airplanes (though in an emergency situation you can't call your loved ones...), Concert Halls.
Hospitals it is more dangerous to have cell phones -- because they can seriously interfere with equipment -- than to not have them and cut off emergency phone calls.
Though I think this is something that should be VERY moderated by government or something because of situations where people are TRYING to stop people from making emergency calls.
I personally believe theatre chairs should have tiny noise sensors and when a certain amount of dB comes out of your location you get a car battery to the ass. No one would use their cell phone OR talk to their neighboring movie goer.
I'm talking about jr high/highscool. Day care is a little different. I'm not sure thats the myspace audience, and it should never be.
Hey Jimmy.
You left your blue race car and your big yellow fire truck at my house. I'm going to get my diaper changed but I'll have my cell phone on me. I know it says online now but Tom said that the online now code isn't working and will be down for an unknown amount of time, so don't try to use their instant messenger. -- it also does not work. He also just posted that login will be down so I guess you won't get this message for a while. Well. W/b.
Malorie.
My opinion is teach your kids to take care of themselves and you don't have to worry. There is nothing wrong with having a myspace profile. There's also nothing wrong with it being wide open. The real threat here is getting involved with someone online. I would claim that thing that needs to be avoided is posting your school / work / phone / etc on myspace but really... That info is out there so easily..
Someone sent my girlfriend a text message a while ago who neither of us knew. He gave her his first and last name. Using that I found his address, school, phone, family members, parents are divorced, recently moved. Using Google. Oh yeah and he's 12.
Also social engineering hasn't even been taken into account here...
Yeah! Really! Too bad it uses a common technology most browsers implement!
Go back to your <blink> tags...
Ajax is a recent word used to describe a combination of a couple of elements JavaScript (specifically the xmlhttprequest call), XML (used to send organized data that can be easily parsed), and an html page.
There are a couple of good examples mentioned above.
I ran the original osx hack on my desktop. It is still installed. Runs perfectly.
I dual boot by using a SATA drive and an IDE drove and I just change the drive in BIOS depending on if I want Windows XP, Linux or MacOSX.
I currently have a bank account which I call my MacAccount. They got me. I love the os. I love the hardware style. Maybe it's what they want. They can have it from me. Even for the price they are asking.
I am sorry to tell everyone this but it is your right as a citizen of the United States to see your President. Everyone forgets that. It really pisses me off when stuff like this happens. More and more. Public functions! The SOTU address is no different. They should not be allow to tell you what is and isn't allowed at functions such as this. My sister was thrown out of a George Bush rally because she had a John Kerry shirt. Their claim was that the rally was sponsored by the RNC. Well... The RNC didn't pay the police who were at the event. We are all going to be silenced and oppressed if the Republican Party gets their way. They scare us with the whole, "Terrorists have a 20 year plan!!!!!" What is really scary is that George Bush, Inc has a 8 year plan and there's only 3 years left. I predict success.
Having said that the Dems are no better than the Republicans. It's gone from being a system of government to a system of control. Pity. Looks like the United States of American ("by the people for the people") is going to be much more short lived than expected. =/
I want my freedom but everyone else wants their neighbor to be spied on because he bought some fertilizer for his flower garden.
I would say mod parent up but you can't.
I don't trust people to be able to determine what is and isn't terrorism online, let alone computers.
My friend and I spent about 2 weeks sending (via e-mail, im, blogs, forums, etc) blue prints of buildings and saying we had a "plan" just to see if we could start some shit. No dice.
If there is anything going on with terrorists online they'll get on AIM and use the encryption feature. Then you'll be in trouble.

Yeah. That 80's President sucked.
It's a good thing you didn't complain about George W. Bush, Jr. I can't even imagine the levels of terrible you would need to go into to describe him!

The problem I see is in order to have socialism you have to trust the people in charge.
Americans don't trust their neighbors.
And they know them. Our Government... I trust that they aren't looking out for MY rights. That's about all I trust about them.
The people who developed the work around must be pissed off.
Thank god.
How to shut patent trolls up.
$612 million. Bastards.
A little sarcasm never hurt anyone.
But Bush is a Republican so he's for small businesses and private practices, right?
Oh wait...
Thanks for improperly modding this.
+5, Inspiring would suit it better.
And it actually discusses the issue. Thanks. =(
