with your logic, sue the car company! it is constantly telling you how fast your going, how far you have traveled, and some even have new technology that will tell you where you are going. your car is stalking you!
The three most hated professions in the united states are pretty constant (they are usually in the top 3)
Lawyers
Insurance Agents
Car Salesmen
However, whenever we have trouble in our lives we usually turn to one of these three people first. Why is that?
I believe it is because they are easy to blame, and there are a select few out there that give the rest a bad name.
Stop blaming them for your problems and thank them for keeping your problems from being worse than they are.
Does a bear shit in the woods? No, one actually used my front lawn the other day
Is the pope catholic? nope, and neither was Jesus, so get over it.
These are all questions with one pretty clear answer... yes, the one clear answer is you are thinking in your own small little world, it is the generalization and abiguities to your thinking that lead to the flaws on your conclusions.
Nothing in this world is certain, and until that is understood and accepted, peace will never occur.
An HP4110 fax/scan/printer uses 10-11W ON(idle), and 10-11W OFF. (Ok, not a remote-on device. WTF?)
Does anyone else see the HP4110 as a not-remote-on device, i certainly don't. A fax machine is the remote piece in this puzzle, it would be pointless to have a fax machine that was off when you turn your printer off, or else how would you recieve faxes?
As for the other devices, all of them are basically the same as your desktop computer, only you expect them to boot up instantly rather than the 2 minutes it takes your PC. you also expect it to have your updated programming for you 24/7. What the digital cable box designers did to get around this was turn the power button into your "screen saver" button, just turning on and off the video out.
Try to consider this, every time you turn on your cable box, you have to wait for it to power up, establish a connection to the cable co, download the entire programming guide for the next week, and then you can start watching your show. no one I know would put up with that lag, so you pay for it in power consumtion. Try pulling the plug on your cable box, leave it off for an hour (drain the memory capacitors) and then plug it back in. How long does it take to get your listing back... are you willing to wait that long ever time?
The original trilogy (IV-VI) would have been drastically ruined for me if I had seen the prequilogy(I-III) first. The biggest intreague to the original trilogy was the shrowd of mystery over the great darth vader, and the insestual love between Luke and Leia. However, at the end of Return of the Jedi, you finally see the humanity of darth and have one question on your mind, how did this man become the power behind the mask? it was not, what happens next, but rather, how did this happen? as a producer, Lucas knows how to draw people into a world, not just a story. he released the original trilogy prior to the prequilogy for two distinct reasons. 1) the trilogy is an epic in and of itself, it stands alone. had george finished his career in 1990, he still would have been considered one of the greatests writers/directors/producers of all time. had his name been only attached to the prequilogy, it would have not been accepted as forthwrite by the public. 2) the technolgy to have pod races and full on realistic battles against non-human enemies was not available in the 1980's.
To truely appreciate every aspect of the story, the order is IV-VI,I-III, Clone wars... There is little entertainment in having questions asked (who is darth vader, why is there this connection between luke and leia, who is obi-wan kanobi, who is this great yoda, why is he the only one left?) after their stories and answers have been told.
In reading through all the relevent arugments, well researched facts, and irrelevant droning on about some peoples ignorance, i had a wonderful idea pop into my head.... Eliminate Lawyers and hand the arguing over to slashdot users.
I found more information about the law and what actually happened in my fellow slashdotters rants then I ever recieved when I was a Juror and had to listen to a pair of lawyers' views on the law. bring hundreds of brilliant minds together, filter through the junk, and you will come out with as much information, if not more, than if you had a single "expert" on the subject.
That being said, next time I have to sit in a courtroom, i will save my money and not hire a lawyer. i will just post my case on slashdot and let this wealth of knowledge come up with my defense....
Sunlight... Which corner market supllies that in anchorage, because i can't seem to find it anywhere else?
Dirt... is that the solid blocks that you find in the ground, how can you dig into the solid block?
Water... will ice work, it's the only water I know of that doesn't require boiling
I think food also wants to be free.
Food is free. Farmers provide the same service Apple does: a high-quality easily found vegetable/fruit/chicken dinner/bottle of orange juice at a reasonable price. And people pay for it despite the fact that anyone armed with a single orange can produce them in unlimited quantities.
So I just got a crate of orange seeds delivered to my home in Anchorage Alaska.... What's the next step to unlimited oranges?

You pay for the service to efficiently produce the product, not for the product itself...Welcome to the world of Capatalist Specialization (the advancement the industrial revolution)
I don't want to think of the juice drain you'd have with the phaser app.
If they could only develop PDA batteries with a little more power, we could do something useful... let's see....
My PDA runs at 3.7 Volts, if energy could flow from the battery to the phaser in 1 microsecond, all I would need is a battery capacity of 328A and....... add in a flux capacitor............
It's not about disabling caps lock, it's about real estate. The caps lock holds alot of space on the keyboard, much more than it's worth. It's like parking a mobile home in the middle of a 3 acre lot in the middle of manhatten, refusing to build anything else on the property. There is nothing wrong with having that mobile home, it's just in the wrong place.
Polygraph Tests are collaborated by a professional for each individual it is hooked up to. That is why they work for most people, because their basic nervousness from being connected is collaborated into the zero. If this wasn't the case, then they would be completely unreliable, as would this general biometric system.

That is rediculous, Apple can't trademark the letter "e", eMachines already ownes that.
