If people feel like their environment is like 'Dilbert'
That is basically saying, 'I am in an unstable and chaotic environment'.
This is not sustainable.
I think that communication, i.e. people coming on slashdot and saying, 'I work for Motorola and it is like dilbert' will eventually balance things out. It has too, or else everyone will go crazy, just as people in Dilbert are, sorta...
I'm not exactly sure what the pirate bay is but I presume it is a site where people can download movies or music.
My thought is, if they don't want you downloading the movies, then why do it? Are you that cheap that you don't want to fork out 10 dollars to go see it at a theatre or pay 3 dollars to rent it at Blockbuster? Or are you so special that you are above the law?
If you think movies are too expensive, which they probably are, then stop supporting them. Maybe you are such a big loser you just don't have anything better to do besides pirate others copy righted works. In that case get some therapy and learn some social skills.
If you have some ideological moral standpoint that makes you feel the free expression of thought should be fostered then start supporting or developing yourself Open source movies or movies or music in the Creative Commons domain. People need and want to make money so stop being so cheap, or else do something productive and helpful.
These are generally blatantly obvious to a decently technological savvy person. It is totally irresponsible for search engines not to totally reject these, and probably costs the economy lots of money.
They should have some sort of reporting program...
Find our sponsors useless and noxious?... report here.
This will probably be a natural evolution, however.
If I project that I am a stud, confident and rich, a female can probably pick up on that - I'll probably have high testosterone as well.
If I project I am a dorky nerd who posts on slashdot, a woman will probably pick up on that as well.
If I project I will have your baby - a woman will pick up on that as well.
It's all projection folks.
Poverty, discease, starvation, and dehydration... they are all system problems. As systems theory goes - all parts of the system are related and if you fix one it will effect others. So to say they don't need laptops, which are meant to be learning tools, is like saying we shouldn't teach a man how to fish (let him learn for himself and let him learn how to create his own infrastructure), we should give him fish (give him infrastructure).
We've been throwing infrastructure at Africa for the last few decades - it has probably helped but the progress is slow. If we give Africans Laptops and access to learning tools. As Negroponte says - they can teach themselves. Then infrastructure will take care of itself. That is, the Africans can then do it themselves instead of recieving handouts.
You can go ahead and just mod me up to 5 insightful and fix my karma too, while you're at it.
Slashdot Mirror
?? fizuck yeah.
Are all images made with the GIMP public domain? Inkscape? Scribus? If you want to kill freesoftware, then say, "Yes".
Have the highest ammount of strip clubs and porn shops per capita. They're all perves!
multiple mentions on slashdot and almost constant popular attention on Digg and del.icio.us are signs that it IS a threat.
A practical use for Google Earth?

Or, else, who knows?
They're trying to grab a peice of the outdoor equipment pie. Is REI next to go?
Oh and I hope this is not interpreted as flamebait or a troll, because it is the truth, and on some level you nerds know it.

I wish they would launch a service like this for Ubuntu, so I could at least pay money to someone....
Can someone remind me of why it is so important to colonize the universe? Can't we just get our s... together here?
The next 5 years are going to be really interesting?
But think of the millions more being turned into fat losers. At least drugs, alcohol and cigarettes make you cool.

How has YouTube actually enriched your life?

Freedom is inevitable.
Other states besides Oregon.
