So Mozilla is taking its open source code down an unpopular path. Doesn't this just create a great opportunity for some enterprising developers to make a new fork for Firefox?
Someone can announce a new, "Browser X".
Tagline: "It's the same as Firefox, but without that DRM garbage."
I remember Windows 3.1. I used it once, and then never again, because it ate up too much RAM, and I was already a wiz at DOS. I've never heard of anyone actually having used an earlier version of Windows 3.1. As far as I knew, before Windows 3.1 and DOS, there was Commodore and Atari and Apple II E, and those weird looking Macintoshes, and nothing else outside of Joshua over at NORAD.
Fast trains most certainly make sense for the USA, to connect major metropolitan areas at the very least. I should be able to take a train from New York to San Francisco in less than a day.
This new video shows the Moon Landing as the director originally wanted to portray it for American audiences, though the technology was lacking in 1969. The Special Edition of the Moon Landing includes more jawas and droids edited in to the scene seamlessly alongside Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. The "One Small Step" segment now includes a dance number cut from the original release.
Hello IT. Have you tried turning it off and on again?... OK, well, the button on the side. Is it glowing?... Yeah, you need to turn it on. Err, the button turns it on. Yeah, you do know how a button works, don't you? No, not on clothes. No, there you go, I just heard it come on. No, that's the music you hear when it comes on. No, that's the music you hear when... I'm sorry, are you from the past?
No doubt the next generation will be watching Hollywood films that tell the official version of the story and how the kindly, just invaders gave Saddam a fair trial in which the evidence proved his guilt beyond doubt, and the outcome gives the beginning of a smile to a poor little girl whose family was killed by Saddam (or some other such nonsense).
Mistrials? The trial was a complete mockery of justice. They put Saddam into a show trial where witnesses were hired to tell lies, his conviction was pre-determined, and he was thrown to a lynch mob. Kinda like the Nuremburg trials, actually. Oh yeah, and Iraqi people that could have shed some light on the reality of the situation were assassinated. Kinda like how General Patton was assassinated in Germany.
How is Valve's system any better than what Blizzard does with World of Warcraft? In WoW, everyone needs a monthly paid account to play, and the account can only have one user online at a time.
It may have been nice to permanently be a Scourge character in the game, with quests involving raids of active Horde and Alliance towns, and skirmishes with the Burning Legion.
In fact, it would be cool to see a phased version of a war between Scourge and Forsaken over the Lordaeron lands.
I agree. Murlocs are pretty irritating. I'm also not a fan of all the quests involving killing hundreds of wildlife. I mean, maybe those should be class quests for hunters only.
That brings up a good point. Midgets have the bodies of children, no matter how old they got. So are naked pictures of midgets child porn, since they look like children? If not, then naked pictures of Bart and Lisa shouldn't be child porn either.
Microsoft buying Yahoo is kinda like Sears merging with K-Mart. Who cares? They're tired companies with tired, old business models.
Microsoft's only good products are Word and Excel, and it has the industry chained to its Windows platform, so Microsoft will continue to make enough revenue to act like a hedge fund and buy up other companies. Yahoo is the Google that never evolved.
K-Mart is Wal-Mart without the efficiency. And Sears is that great American company that is no longer really American (they import all their products) so no one really cares about them and their stores have no character and no appeal, so they might as well be another K-Mart.
Why do we need to clone neanderthals? If they continue to make Seth Rogan and/or Will Ferrell movies, a majority of humans will devolve into neanderthals already.
Cloning a wooly mammoth, on the other hand, would be great, especially for stews and barbeques. We'd just have to clone them with tender meat. And their wool would really help our textile industries resurge. And we can make tools out of their bones.
When the maximum penalty is 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, "Guilty" is a dumb thing to say.
You can't make a deal with a prosecutor if you have zero leverage.
Remember, because of lawyers, common courtesy is dead. For example, you can no longer apologize at the scene of a car accident that's your fault, because then you might be sued.
Yet another example of why we should go back to a system of trial by arms.
Mexican is a racial group based on hundreds of years of Mexican descent creating a distinct nation-state. Actually, if the Mexican race includes its Aztec heritage, it's even older, as a nation-state (i.e. a state populated by people of a common heritage). Basically, it's the Aztec race with a Spanish element injected and absorbed into it.

I beat World of Warcraft when I cancelled my WoW account.

Red Dwarf is better than any American sitcom I can think of.

Instead of building a new plant, why don't they just buy Ultralife, who makes most of the batteries for the military?

He should be punished for invading her privacy, but 5 years in prison? That's unnecessary.

When you don't want to be caught in a conspiracy, simply make fun of the conspiracy theorists.
Ray shouldn't even answer the complaint. I'll bet the judge would be glad to see a motion to dismiss, right away.
You seem to not know the difference between race and species. Maybe you need to repeat 7th grade science class.
The RIAA just feels the need to lash out at someone before they go the way of Lehman Bros.

If New Hampshire cared about freedom, then why did they nominate McCain instead of Ron Paul? Oh yeah, because the votes were "counted" by Diebold.
Freedom is our core value. The problem is that the government doesn't represent us. The American government is betraying American core values.
