In the Bible Belt, they have to learn how to deal with people who think differently from them. In LA and NY you can just live in your own little homogeneous ghetto and never be exposed to new ideas.
The problem is a lack of open space, not a widespread neurosis. Suburban sprawl and track homes have overtaken most of the open space I played on as a kid, and the green slices of golf-like grass they set up as play areas are a poor substitute.
No it wouldn't. It would make a very terrible PDA. "Well, I can't store addresses or appointments or anything, but I have a great vt100 emulator. Oh wait, no keyboard." On top of that you'd look like an idiot taking it out in meetings.
Because of how they do it. Google's approach is often technically superior (at first) and different than other companies.
Sure, but people come up with technically superior stuff all the time. It's not like IBM gets play for each product release, and for what I can tell they are about as boring as Google.
Can someone explain what the exciting thing about google is again? A web search engine? Yawn. Free web email? Who doesn't have an email account? Why is it that every time Google puts the word beta in front of some turd it becomes front page slashbot news?
This point is too subtle for most./ers. They are so religious about their indentation level that they become combative and stupid from the outset and will never understand the difference between TAB and an indentation level setting. Given the current level of discourse we should get rid of the TAB character altogether and mandate space-only indentation.
Drivers are only an issue for the desktop market, where GNU/Linux can't be killed - because it's been stillborn. There isn't any Linux market to kill. Support for high volume, low quality hardware is less important for the server and embedded market, which are the only ones with a significant Linux presence.
One of the great ironies of the early 21st century is that the programmers who build component systems for others are strangely reluctant to componentize their own tools.
That's not one of the great ironies of the early 21st century. It's minor and uninteresting. Let's wait until the end of the 21st century before we employ this sort of hyperbole.
They know, that for their line of business, the geeks are a really powerful, _highly_ opinionated, bunch of people. Should we start disliking Google we will start telling our relatives to use some other search engine.
You mean the same bunch of nerds who keep telling people that Linux is ready for the desktop? Boy, that's working out. Google's done pretty well ignoring the slashbots and fanbois.
I know the original post may have seemed like a troll, but it seems like most Libertarians are perfectly comfortable being marginalized so that they are under no obligation to temper their more radical views. But the more radical the views, the easier it is to marginalize Libertarians. Planks like dissolving the FDA and getting rid of Federal subsidies for education don't endear Libertarians to the general public, they make candidates sound like loonies.
I'm glad to see some people are aware of the problems. I don't agree philosophically with the ideology, but I'd love an electoral system that didn't punish people for voting their conscience.

Why would the movie require interaction? The game sure doesn't.
Dear PinkX;
Album rock is dead. Time to move on.

How is that proving his point? Everyone wants faster clock rates. There's nothing idiosyncratic about it.
Yeah. Imagine those whiners asking for faster clock rates an in-order execution of code! What capriciousness!
For the most part their AV equipment sucks too.

Yes! We have always been at war with Oceania!
Xenosaga and FFX may take 100 hours, but 95 hours of that are non-interactive cutscenes. Yawn.
Throw out? I'll pay for shipping to take those off your hands!
Well, his business was selling software that made online stores. So the disparity in units you noted is really irrelevant.

Well, that's not exactly evil.

I can't believe I fed the troll!
I don't think any of those would be funnier than "Excite Bike." The only one that comes close is Duck Hunt.
