Was that third rail electrocuted, or electrified?

@hfutrell: 533 / 412 = 1.294

@hfutrell: A CPU that is one third faster is significant.

If they were worried about keeping up with the pace of IT evolution, they'd have never contracted with EDS.

@Noble Rat: I would have to guess the primary inducement for the platter to be would be the promise of easy money. I don't think anyone's suggested a forced trade in slave platters, so one would have to assume that these folks choose this bit of employment for the usual reasons.

@PACKFAN4LIFE: They just shot right past it... because you can't shoot right through it.

The basics of the used game market, and rentals, was settled long ago.

Interesting conjecture, but doesn't seem likely anytime soon. For example, I spend enough time already trying to twitch things over this way and that one pixel at a time. How much easier will this be when the working end of my pointing device is a a squishy blob some 70 pixels wide?

@senorducklives: Parents shouldn't back their kids into ethical corners where they have to make those sorts of choices.

I think it's already been done.

@twoeightnine: It's a much more authentic looking command center, anyways. Looks like someone did a contrast enhancement on the projection screen. BP marketing as a sim game is pretty funny, but it's missing the oil slick and tiny dead animals on the coastline. The bit of paper in the bottom left corner with Top…

@OreoExplosion: But after the drinking context the Nokia Kinetic would be the last phone standing.

It's difficult to seem edgy while hollering about your edginess.

Some people are nucking futs.

@Covenant: Seemed to me that legality in the wizarding world was exercised more on the basis of the success or failure of an act than it's merits of good vs evil, helpful vs harmful.

Wow! Dark Shadows was number one when I was in junior high school. A vampire, his love snack, a werewolf, but the creepiest part was the boy with the artificial hand of evil, and those I-Ching doorways.

@fullsoul: Yet another sign that Droid > iPhone.

The outcome of the inevitable class action suit will be 1) a few lawyers get richer, 2) a "remediation kit" gets mailed to a couple million iPhone4 users consisting of an inch long piece of electrical tape and a coupon for two free songs from the iTunes store, and 3) Android gains more marketshare.

I think someone's going to be adding ten years to the current "When do We Sunset Windows XP?" timeline.
