That's usually how it works in Europe. Suing some company isn't like playing the lottery. If a company cause you damages, they will usually be forced to pay for the damages, legal costs, and possibly some small bonus on top of that, to compensate for the "discomfort" (can't find a good word here, I'm sure you get my point).
This is one of the most childish post I've read on slashdot (well, ignoring the blatant trolls). Why don't you just admit that you can't find any sources? Unless you do, no one will bother to take you seriously. You claim something that people generally don't believe, so of course it's up to you to prove it.
Sensors embedded in your fingers to detect certain things.
Would be awesome to have some heat/cold sensors to be able to somehow "detect" if something is too hot or cold!
Maybe some sort of "tactile feedback" mechanism as well so you could feel some kind of "force" if you for example come into contact with a physical object.
This is the sort of paper that really needs to be distributed as much as possible (but rewritten to be understandable to the layman)
There's your layman's explanation right there.
So write it up into a nice form and publish on your blog! (you do have a blog, don't you? It is the year 2007 after all).
Actually I think you're referring to China and their One Laptop Per Child... err.. no.. One Child Per Family policy. You cannot apply that to all communist regimes.
Would you argue that changing the number on your bank statement to zero doesn't take something from you?
I completely agree with you. As long as I can still go to the bank and withdraw the money I have deposit, the number means nothing to me, and they can write it the way they want. That's the nice thing with information.
Unless they have recently added support for higher depths than 16 bits, no one will be able to take it seriously. I'd love to use gimp for something more than a quick rescale of jpegs, but when you're constrained to working with 8 bits per channel, everything just gets too tedious.:/

Actually it's about 7e-6 iPod Nanos thick.
And these other search engines don't serve the interests of their stock holders?

Why on earth would anyone want to do such a thing?!
Or start selling PCs with linux, and have Windows as an add-on with a price tag.
You're doing it wrong.
"This is the dumbest thing I've heard since I started at Microsoft"
Why don't the animals just shake their head to make the bells ring?
I'm never going to but my hair, you insensitive merkin-clod!
Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) is using 2.6.22.
If they write "if you sign here we can legally kill you and your family", it doesn't mean that they actually can.

If the ISP cannot deliver, say, 8 mbit, maybe they should stop selling that, and rather sell something that they can deliver.
You mean it would be nice if the manufacturer of your hardware media player made sure it worked on the computer you use?

So in the future, we can have e-voting machines which leaves an e-paper trail for accountability!

...the frequency scaling features of my CPU remain active.I'm so confused now, don't you mean Factory-bottom?
As a Swedish citizen, I feel so lucky that all my communications will be monitored by a government I can not influence through voting!
Three.
No, he/she wouldn't. Nada. That's what this whole article is about.
