Wow, this is fantastic news. Way to be on the cutting edge, AOL. Sorry, but this release doesn't even warrant a copy of our home game. I still don't forgive you for using the Jetsons theme music in your commercials.
Is this a news item or an editorial you've posted?
If you're proven wrong are you REALLY gonna cut it off, or just back down? Like the guy who said he'd eat his mouse if the G4 cube was real?
If you're making a statement, you'd better stick to it, or I lose ALL respect for you.
He didn't say he'd do it if the chipset wasn't hardwired, he said he's willing to make that bet, with his left nut as his stake. If you want him to stand by it, you have to offer something on the other side of the bet.

When you say things like that with no supporting evidence, it only makes *you* look silly. ... You have it exactly backwards, you know - it really frees the programmer to do interesting things.
I've read your reply several times, but haven't found your supporting evidence. Did you forget to include it?
How useful would TiVo or ReplayTV be outside the States? I'm in Costa Rica, but we receive network programming out of Denver. (And I'm not going to let the thing call the States to find out what's on).
Perhaps articles such as these should be posted once in a while to ferret out people who can't comprehend them so that they can be banned from reading slashdot.
This would also allow people to opt in and out, legally, and at will. Make the option avaliable to all (AC and those with accounts) and, voila! Problem solved.

Let's see... It rained for 40 days and 40 nights, and the water covered the highest mountains. That's what, 20,000 feet? So, 40 days is 960 hours. That works out to more than 20 Feet per hour of rain. Anyone who's ever been caught in a storm that fell at a rate of four inches per hour knows how powerful that force is - the force of 20 feet per hour would certainly have torn apart any Arc in no time.
Also, the pressure at 20,000 feet below is enormous. Certainly enough to crush all the trees and such.
That evolution occurs is fact. The Theory of Evolution is an attempt at explaining how it happens. The thoery may or may not be correct, but that has nothing to do with the existence of the phenomenon.
Are you saying it's illegal for me to record and share my rendition of "Mr. Tambourine Man" with the world?
You'd have to pay royalties. But you certainly can record and distribute songs in the public domain. That's why all those early low-budget monster movies used classical music.

I tried to think of another way to say something was difficult, but it turned out to be a sweet pain in the ass.
-The guy above
People pay much less attention to the artist than the actual music.
Then why did so many smash their Milli Vanilli records?
Did the music suddenly sound different because it was two fat guys singing?
You posted the exact same link, but I still won't call you an idiot. Try this one.

Well thank God for that.

Nice example of why you don't need the compiler to help, he said sarcastically, while looking at the line cBuffer[ch] = /0;
Robert, what are you having for lunch? Note to moderators: Please read the bio before moding this. He eats food, ya know.
And when you're done please mod it down.
There are no good guys or bad guys
Yes there are.

Does anybody else find it humorous that the O'Reilly books for VB have dogs on eh cover
... as in "This language is a dog"?:)
I don't get it.
Oh, ok. Now I get it.
Well said.

The whole flippin' point is you can't have all three.

What happens when opted-in posts contain quotes from opted-out posts? Does the opted-out propagate?
I'm not so sure. I've recently become reasonably proficient in Spanish, and I recognize my own patterns in how I construct sentences.
Also, the pressure at 20,000 feet below is enormous. Certainly enough to crush all the trees and such.
And where did all that water go?

Whaddaya mean? The source code is published in every cell.
Ugh, I meant its, not it's.
You shouldn't have meant it. You used it correctly. "it's" is the contraction of it is. "its" is the possessive.
