Tokyo has been destroyed so many times in anime that it makes me wonder if akihabara should relocate to some other city.
But then it always rises in 20 years to become some techno-paradise with mecha battling each other in the streets to start the whole cycle again. Clearly Akihabara is the driving force behind this.
Well, not this one. I'm terribly disappointed that Enterprise is ending tonight. The last two seasons were great, and the first two were better than any other Trek series' first two seasons, except for TOS. The last few episodes have been quite enjoyable, especially the 'Mirror Universe' eps. Mmmm...Empress Sato. At least Paramount did the right thing by releasing the DVDs sooner rather than later.
I mean come on, Microsoft is in no position to be talking about anything that won't crash. Even their MS Concience '05 software just crashed in the last few days.

Can someone give me a one sentance summery of the article? I'm in the middle of playing World of Warcraft while I should be debugging some filter engine code and cant be bothered to read it all.
Managers should stop playing golf and start playing with a Game Cube. At least, that's the gist that I got.
Software shouldn't be patented. It shouldn't even be copyrighted or trademarked. There is such a short shelf life on software and software companies that the impact of denying access to techniques and logarithms effectively shuts out competition and fair use not only for the life of a product but well beyond, negatively influencing people well beyond the useful scope of any novelty that could possibly be discovered. One only has to look at the rampant achievements and success of Free Software and Open Source to see how much the rest of the industry is being held back by software patents and other "intellectual property" restrictions.

Uh, why? It's not like one was preventing the other from being enjoyed.
Boy I'm sick of comments like these.
I agree 100%. It's almost Pavlovian how the minute someone mentions 'Star Wars' or 'Enterprise' on/. you get the rabidly palavering anti-fans come and slam them. I like Enterprise. I also like Battlestar Galactica. I liked Firefly, too, although it wasn't The Best Show Ever that some Jossheads have proclaimed it to be.

That doesn't just apply to cancer, either. It applies to diseases like MS, and even simply going out of business.
I agree, Microsoft is a disease, and it keeps spreading.
I assume these mice are for lab tests.
Or they're the next generation of stealth fighter pilots.
That would be the Seattle *Post*-Intelligencer.
Good thing there's no editor or anything...

The internet has profited many people but it also has brought many problems, such as sex, violence and feudal superstitions
I like how feudal superstitions rank amongst the top threats to a Communist government.
They're one of the top threats to democratic government, too.
It's the next logical step, of course. I mean people have been able to buy congresspeople for years now.

Scary, but I don't think it could ever happen in the good old US of A
Surely the PATRIOT ACT will protect us! Oh, wait...

Canada will impose a 15 percent surtax on U.S. live swine...starting May 1, 2005
I knew it was pretty easy and cheap to buy politicians, but now Canada is taxing them? How do I get into this racket?
Breasts!
Yeah, but Rosie got a hell of a workout.
I seem to remember The Balmer talking about MS Speech '90 a few years back. Sounds like a lawsuit to me.
They were replaced by a small shell script.
Of course, once we decide, we'll need to find out what 'to silicon' actually means...
sigh...

I find it funny that Jack Thompson is calling the experts that don't agree with him 'whores'. Seems like that's a pot-kettle-black issue to me.
They'll probably do it right after EA changes its corporate wage-slave policies. I won't hold my breath.
I'll blow up the school, and bring down the whole system!
Why don't they make GPS manditory for all cars, incorporate it with the police, and then police can do a search for your car if its stolen?
Probably because the first thing even a room temperature-IQ criminal will do is remove or disable the GPS system.

Is that you Mr. Stallman?
And yes, Battlestar Galactica is the best sci-fi on TV today.
:).
Wow, there's an indictment on the state of Sci-fi on TV today

Pretty soon, some judge will rule that voting is private too, and you know what that leads to: freedom! Who knows when this madness will end?
