I have just had a couple Seagate drives fail just outside of their 1-year warranties. I'm never buying Seagate again, no matter how cheap they were (and a 3TB was only $100 when I got it).
No, you have to pour it in as it's molten hot because once it cools, you're not doing anything to it. That's why you need a mutant with healing powers...
I did this with my daughter. I didn't force her to play games, but I have the book High Score and we played through all the games highlighted (we mostly tried them, didn't beat them all). Some were still great, others are completely horrible and boring (the same ones I didn't really play then...hmmm). Now, her favorite movie is Wreck-It-Ralph, but she's sad that most of her generation can't appreciate its brilliance. She also is playing the Zelda remake on her 3DS and also downloaded a GameBoy emulator on her phone to play Pokemon (with a group of friends at school that do the same). She does play modern games as well, but my daughters definitely prefer a Wii to Xbox or PS.
Linux printing? (still a crappy joke most users cannot make work) Linux audio? (still a screw-up without a single standard LINUX API) Linux desktop use of files on a server or NAS?
Actually, printing is the one thing I have had zero issues with on Linux. It just finds my printers (even on a network) every single time without even asking me and they have an appropriate driver already installed, including for the scanner. This has been the absolute BEST feature of Linux in my opinion.
I stuck a brand new 840 into an old Asus eeePC netbook (the original 9" with the hard drive). It's very usable like this and I'm using it as a file server.
You mean like to highlight a well-written, popular piece of code authored mainly by a female... Instead of throwing a fit over a non-sexist language documentation change.
Considering both Apple and Amazon sell unprotected music and have for almost a decade now, and they have record sales every year, I'd say the fear is overblown. Buying a song for.99 is convenient compared to piracy.
Moneyball is a sports metaphor where you don't get the flashy big-name players that don't really do anything. You get the unknown, overlooked players for cheap that just know how to win. You do this by using different stats than are typically used by most other teams. For instance, the Oakland A's were big on on-base percentage and recently the LA Kings are big into Corsi (shots attempted differences when a player is on the ice, in other words, puck control).
The "Moneyball" aspect of this is that they are turning DA work on its head. Instead of spreading their resources way too thin and throwing huge sentences at minor drug possession, they are giving them minor plea deals and saving the big guns for the people who the communities are reporting are the troublemakers. By taking out the troublemakers, it reduces the pressure on others to join them in crime, so it results in less crime total.
This is fantastic and should be a model for other communities.

Or they never had them. Ever. Since, you know, scientifically there is no observation of this. Only guessing.
And then they run all your bills before they run all your incoming checks...
Sorry. I've seen how people live in the US and how people live in Norway and England. Your "purchasing power" argument falls completely flat.
I learned from WarGames... Noob!
"focus on the Desktop" Maybe click that little rectangle to the right of the clock first.
Is that why mine is showing no SMART errors even though it's completely failing? I was wondering.

Wait! What were we talking about?
I beat it. It wasn't really even THAT hard. Ghouls and Ghosts, Battletoads and Sunsoft Batman are MUCH harder than TMNT.

Now, Linux audio IS ridiculously broken...
I think you are confusing Technet with MSDN.
And like Microsoft support, Red Hat support goes unused and if you call them you figure it out before them anyway since they take days...
If you were subscribing, 7 wouldn't have been available anymore.
I got three installs of Office Home and Student 2007 for $99. That's $33 per PC. It's been cheap for quite a while.
I've had Linux break far more often than Windows. Windows just runs. Linux requires routine maintenance to keep it running.
If it's a PATA drive just say it's broken anyway. You're not really lying...
I just got .40 per GB on Black Friday on a 250GB drive ($99).
The first round of system updates will take you to 40GB easy. A 32 GB SSD is practically worthless.

The Supreme Court recently overruled this in the US. Now you see many more businesses (especially gas stations) giving a cash discount.

Well, one would hope that if the community sees that this works, they may next report the dirty cops, hoping that the DAs take notice.
