But Sci-fi (syfy?) + CN + local channels isn't worth $60, and even though I'll admit a lot of people I know watch ESPN and CNN, no one I know watches those 10+ shopping channels. The two channels I would watch are worth $10 total to me, not more. They're missing out on $120/year from me, and several friends are dropping too.
Paraphrased: A woman came to the Buddha filled with grief over the death of her child [and fear of someone who kept anonymously leaving paintings on her doorstep depicting the brutal death of her child, reopening those wounds]. She asked the Buddha if there was anything that could be done to cure her grief. The Buddha said he knew of a concoction that would do so, and listed off ingredients. The woman got excited and said she would collect the ingredients post-haste. Before she left the Buddha said "The ingredients cannot come from a household that has experienced the loss of a loved one (child, parent, grand-parent, sibling) [and has been harassed afterward as a result]." The woman agreed to follow the directive and went off in search of the ingredients.
Everywhere around town she went she found people that were willing to give her the items she requested. However when mentioning the stipulation that it come from a home where no one had died [and the family harassed] , everyone [grew incensed at the injustice done to her because such harassment is not normal] . She went throughout the whole village and [eventually found someone who knew the perpetrators. The village jailed them and the woman found peace, knowing that the evil people would not harm anyone else.
Life spares no one of suffering [even criminals].
Is the family over reacting? Also yes.
No. What kind of unfeeling psycho/sociopath are you? They didn't see their daughter's picture in an ad campaign for safe driving, on TV, or in a newspaper. People are deliberately doing harm to the family's emotional and mental stability. "Woohoo Daddy! Hey daddy, I'm still alive." is not a normal caption for a picture like that.
Step 1: They should set their email clients to plain-text
Step 2: They should hire a secretary to filter work email since the job requires that they look at unsolicited images (of houses)
Step 3: File a police report if they haven't
Maybe rearrange the above steps.
Vista = Random marketspeak word that is corporate-safe and politically correct and sounds "dynamic" but carefully avoids communicating any actual information about the product.
Leopard = Ditto
Jaunty Jackalope = Funny name with 1st letter indicating relative version information.
I know which I prefer, andwhich is more useful.
And "Jaunty Jackalope" is almost guaranteed to be a unique search term on Google, whereas Vista and Leopard aren't.
Random blinking garbage? I've got an Nvidia card that does that on the second video output if the OSS driver is used. The nvidia binary blob works fine though.
There may be malware for Windows, but at no point does one have to go into a CLI to install or run an application.
Try playing original Master of Orion on Windows XP without a CLI (DOSbox).
And in case you think I'm all play and no work: Try running psexec.exe without the CLI.
3. Home Desktop. This has killed X. Killed it good. At the moment I've no idea how it was managed, but it was...
Ubuntu has the worst X-failure mode I've ever seen. X never dies permanently, and I have to use a VT to init1 ; init 3 just to test out conf settings. At least RH/Fedora opens up system-config-display-settings after three consecutive fails.
Movie: The Game is the worst type of video game. I know of zero that are even worth mentioning.

Spiderman 2.
Hell ya. I still play Spiderman 2 regularly. But... The "movie" elements are boring and irrelevant to the fun of the game. I like it because it's so different from the movie, and gives you near 100% freedom (within the confines of Spiderman).
Given the Great Firewall of China and their survelance of all Internet traffic, Chinese denials of these hacking attempts ring hollow.
The Great Firewall of China doesn't keep out the packets of the Mongol Hordes, it keeps the packets of the Chinese citizens _in_ (but only on port 80).
I actually did this on my mothers computer.
I looked at each spam message and made a call if I could trust the opt out, and I I went through her whole inbox. Result? Smap mail dropped from 100ish/day to less than 10 on average. And it stayed that way for near a year with a small trickle increase.
She probably signed herself up to a bunch of free-coupon ads from legit mass-marketing email farms, so now her only spam is evil spam. Bravo for using her email address as a guinea pig. She could have ended up with 500ish/day.
Anyone posting to slashdot should know better, but when Joe user hears things like CAN-SPAM act, and "legally required to remove from list if opting-out", they believe the law-makers more than they believe (or even hear) the nerds.

Utopia ran their own conduit but before they could finish the job Qwest came in and pulled their own cables. This filled the conduit and prevented Utopia from using their own conduit.
Legally? Why didn't Utopia just pull Qwest's cables and say, "Use your own &#%*@ conduit."
Technically, the verbs of the sentence were "will be" and "named" the word ending in "ing" was an adjective, or if you prefer to think of it as such, "an adjectived verb (where 'adjectived' is a verbed noun, just like 'verbed')," which is perfectly valid English.
Lucky for you man created Amazon.com for replacing woman in this natural cycle of life. You can subscribe to Fish sticks like their other grocery products and it will automatically charge you and ship fish sticks to your door on a regular basis!
But then they won't be in the freezer, or cooked in the oven. I'd have to eat them quickly, hunched-over on my front porch before they attracted raccoons. I think Amazon.com has a way to go before replacing the Amazons.
Your post made me think of a (complicated) method of having an easily usable car available wherever the thief is (if one isn't too choosy as to the make/model). Future Fast & Furious plot fodder, perchance?
"Okay, my tracking database says there's a Porsche two blocks south, and the driver never leaves work until 5PM."
"So we'll have four hours until he notices..."
"No, we'll have four hours to get it back, with as little mileage as we can put on it. I want to keep this car available."
With the Better Place system, you pay for the miles you drive, not the battery. Batteries are all owned by Better Place and the car tracks how many miles you drive on their battery.
Hmm, so will they apply a different fee for charging laptops/ipods from the cigarette lighter, or is that free?
"I see you had the battery for 120 days, and only traveled 6 miles, but it's registering 95% draw through the cigarette lighter"
"I smoke a _lot_"
"Okay, that'll be 12 cents for the 6 miles, and $300 for your carton of cigs. What brand do you want?"
Lawsuit? If I'm reading correctly, they're risking/promoting worldwide famine. In a worst case scenario where it does cross pollinate, no law could protect the creators of "the crop killing plant" and Justice would remove her blindfold to watch the people drag them through the streets to the gallows. And Justice would smile.
I'm not a Lawyer, but if A and B have a contract where B gives A money, and C convinces B to give C a portion of that money, isn't that close to Tortious Interference?

Except that it didn't favor those people before 100-200 years ago. It seems there's an advantage to being hairy and smelling strongly of pheromones.

One of the big things that bothers me is that the american entertainment industry is such a tiny part of the economy.
But as we've seen, the American entertainment industry can allow those in power to wag the dog.
That sentence works on so many levels!
