The hell are you talking about? If his last 1000 cases were good and this one sucked it is a "botch". If his last 1000 cases sucked and this one sucks he is just a shitty surgeon.
Wait.. what did we miss out on in the Gamecube days? I have 4 different Maddens for gamecube, as well as Sims2 that my ex forced me to purchase.. Need for speed: underground 2. Just about all their other sport games have been out for gamecube during its lifetime. Are there actually any games that didn't make it to Gamecube?
Not everyone drives like an old woman. Some of us don't require two hands at 10 and 2 every second we are in the car. Not to mention there are still people out there driving stick shifts with only one hand on the wheel. Besides, what do I do when I want to voice dial and the radio is up? Oh..
No, I've known people back in the late 90s that would attach popups to media files so whenever someone opened a porn from say limewire in Windows Media Player an Internet Explorer window would open generating quite a bit of money for virtually nil. Especially since this was pre-dotcom bust and advertisers were paying astronomical rates.
Thats the whole point. If I have a physical button phone I don't have to read. I can dial numbers by touch in half the time.
Also if the phone is up to my ear why do I care about the buttons being displayed? Sure the screen real estate is useful for movies or whatever. I'm sure its much more intuitive for a PDA. The problem is that I, as well as many others, want our phone to perform as a phone before anything else.
Honestly I was hugely disappointed with the also closed iPhone. It lacks features and touchscreen-only REALLY doesn't do it for me. Its pretty hard to drive and read your cell phone at the same time..
It doesn't have to be open but if it runs Windows Mobile, that is open enough for what I intend to do with it. I expect their phone will be just like most Windows-based PDAs, only it can make phone calls as well.
Obviously my opinions are against group-think but I am just speaking my mind. I'm anxious to see whats brought to the table by Microsoft, hopefully sometime this summer.
I'm actually somewhat looking forward to seeing what they offer in a smartphone. It really can't hurt to have more options out there. I've really been somewhat on the lookout for a decently open phone with fair storage, music playing capabilities and wifi. The more phones like this on the market the better off we all are IMO.
Wtf, you don't need a commercial to tell you if your asthma medication is working or not. If what you already have works you don't need something else. If it doesn't work you should be complaining to your doctor as it is his job to make sure you have the proper medication.
Microsoft cautioned everyone not to play the song "Hit Me Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears on or near your computer while the mic is on.
Several lawsuits already involve brutal crimes by computers against annoying young teeny bopper women. Although we can't act like we didn't see this coming, tension has been steadily rising [theonion.com]. You should see what happened to the guy who played the Nirvana song "Rape Me".
By the time this is a viable way to get your gasoline, I'd really hope we'd be onto higher technologies then this. You know, like that Eleck Trick stuff, Or that Hydro Jen whatchamacallits.
What you want us to get to higher technologies, then go back to using diesel? OH you meant technologies with a higher state of greatness than this technology. Why didn't you say so?
According to Estey Bomberger nearly 33% of all females and 14% of all males are molested before the age of 18.
If the real number is anywhere NEAR that, cracking down on social networking sites would be completely misplaced resources. As you said, dozens out of millions. Thats less than 1 in 1000 people.
If anything I think the law should require parents to do their job, otherwise face charges by reason of neglect.
Couldn't they just do both? OOo installer for Windows as well as some Linux live CD that includes OOo? Seems like the best of both worlds and fairly easily done...
Maybe instead of giving benefits to families with children we should force additional taxes on them. This would HOPEFULLY cause families to think before having children and possibly limit having children to somewhat better-off families. Possibly improving the overall genetics of our population (wealthier people tend to be somewhat smarter than dirt poor people). Extremely sorry if this offends some poor people out there, it is a harsh truth though. A huge portion of poor people in developed nations (IE. USA) are either extremely stupid or extremely lazy.
It makes sense and unlike with ethanol, calories used on you wont be wasted as you will use them reguardless of the electricity you generate. A decent gym with 20 or 30 stationary bikes going could probably generate at least enough electricity to keep the gym self-sufficient.
I never had to do any "activation" on my two Intel Macs.
Hmm I've never had to do any "activation" on any prebuilt Windows PCs I've bought from Dell, etc. You can't build your own Mac which is where PC users come into activation issues, how does that compare?
Use an image for content you dont want "copied". Provides just as much protection as PDF. Also, what common platforms dont support HTML and JPEGs?
Not to mention you can force the page to take up as much room as you want, or have it automatically resize to fit the screen at your choosing. Meaning if you WANT to force everything to look the same on any browser you can, you dont HAVE to though as with PDFs.
Then theres less reader overhead (as far as system resources) and the fact that HTML is completely open allowing anyone to have as much control as everyone else (no $400 PDF creators) HTML files can be read on FAR more systems than PDFs at the moment... including PDAs / Cell Phones NOW.. my Dreamcast, or any computer I've used in the last 15 years.

Plus, I bet they patched the dupe glitch on the PS3 version. Talk about lame.
PS. I thought the PS3 was supposed to have superior graphics to high end PCs?

Hmm I charge my phone every night. I don't plan on using it while I sleep so why not make sure the battery is full in the morning?
Some dude wants to see university research. Then they write an article about it and post it on Slashdot?.
Well I want to see boobs, lots of them. Can I have my Slashdot story now please?

I was hoping you'd read the snippet on wikipedia :(

Antifreeze!
Wait.. you only have to break 1000 games to be considered an expert in Starcraft now? Man.. Battle.net has really gone downhill.
Yeh I was a bit confused as to what they expected to change. Isn't that the reason its going from 2.6.19 to 2.6.20?
Then again I'm sure they made some decent $ out of all the friendly visitors they have to their website now...
Because there are telecommunications privacy laws that protect us online. Hence the need for them to have a warrant for the original offenders.

If it does I'm killing myself. There is nothing html + images can't do that PDF can.
