"health insurance companies prevented from operating the real death panels, as opposed to the fictitious ones concocted by the Alaskan bimbo-in-chief" is what you, being a presumptuous fuck, assumed he was referring to.
Try leaving your basement for once in your life and maybe you'll realize that in the real world, despite what American media would like you to believe, political beliefs are commonly more nuanced and varied than just "hurrr durr palin" vs. "hurr durr obama"
I've seen fucking children preform more sophisticated political analysis than you. Particularly on slashdot, automatically assuming that if someone distrusts their government they must have partisan motives is just plain stupid.
In fact, the only reason we had to construct such a strongly worded message in the first place is because the Church of Jobs requires him to do so whenever somebody admits to using a different brand of smartphone while saying something that could be construed as criticism of the iphone.
I use an N900, the Iphone sucks ass! Mod me down to add weight to my assertion!
I support the 2nd Amendment you fucking idiot. I don't disagree with your statement, I'm just calling you an idiot for not understanding the conversation you're attempting (poorly) to participate in.
Reading comprehension and you are not on the best of terms are you?
No part of your statement is incompatible with my own. I left mine purposely vague and neutral because any more detail has nothing to do with the point of my response. The only point that I was attempting to make is that the 2nd amendment specifically recognizes that firearms are meant to kill people.
You are the worst sort of idiot: an idiot that feels the need to have and voice strong opinions and disagreement, but can't be bothered to listen to what others say.
If you had bothered to read my comment you would have noticed my very particular wording:
it's to ensure the ability to engage in acts of war.
Notice I did not say who's ability to fight a war, nor did I say a war with who.
My statement is completely compatible with the interpretation that you describe (off-topic: which I personally agree with) but it is deliberately neutral. It's reactionist comments such as your own that give this discussion it's bad name.
Technically speaking, their role in killing people is exactly the reason for the 2nd Amendment. The amendment's purpose isn't to ensure the ability to hunt, it's to ensure the ability to engage in acts of war.
In short: everybody knows the purpose of guns is to kill people, your argument brings nothing new to the table.
HDMI is hardly rare, you actually have to go out of your way to get a computer without it these days. Anybody can move their computer into their livingroom. It's not magic, just a little manual labor....oh wait, that might be a problem for most slashdotters.
Even if the Asus version will be dramatically different, which is highly doubtable, it likely won't make and difference. There isn't much reason to think the second won't fall as easy as the first.
Linux drivers for the device itself have been available the entire time (since it was 'hacked'). You are completely free to use that to make whatever style of HID you wish.

No. his comment was "the way things are going".

Let me take a wild guess here, and say that you were educated in America.
Well, am I wrong?
Of course he doesn't, he's an iphone user.

Doesn't toe a party lie of an American political organization is now considered "nutty"?
What drugs have you been mainlining?
Little Lost Robot.
It's not. That's the point.
I Robot wasn't a novel. Says a lot for how much you know about good SF...
Yeah, there's no way you could use parts printed from something like RepRap to make something as complex as say, another 3d printer. ..oh wait...
Hand over your geek card.
If only they had done a better job, maybe we wouldn't have to deal with this "2012" crap.
You don't know how cloning works do you? They're cloning a mammoth, not the bacteria they found in a frozen mammoth.
These are people willing to risk their very lives just for the hope that they can one day become Americans. What have you done to become an American?
I suggest that they have far more of a right to the benefits citizens enjoy than you do, you racist fuck.
Who gives a shit? It's all bullshit.
I support the 2nd Amendment you fucking idiot. I don't disagree with your statement, I'm just calling you an idiot for not understanding the conversation you're attempting (poorly) to participate in.
That's a terribly broad statement. Have you no imagination?

Even better: Dolphin (and maybe even Kangaroo!?!) courts!
Are you blind, or just illiterate? He clearly just did.
I'll consider accepting dolphins as persons if and only if that means I'm allowed to put them on trial for rape.

Uncomfortable truth: your day job isn't really all that hard, any tool can install ram.
Even if the Asus version will be dramatically different, which is highly doubtable, it likely won't make and difference. There isn't much reason to think the second won't fall as easy as the first.
