@Bluecold: ...which is why the assistant rushes to a steakhouse to pick up lunch when their boss decides they want nicely grilled steaks for the lunch meeting.

@mrm: And that $75 (or *gasp*, an even larger amount) could have been billed by the station after the fact. The department could have picked up the calls and said as much, and I'm sure the family would have agreed.

@Lupison: You're in a very public place; you have no reasonable expectation of privacy. Sure it's loud, but the people immediately around you have always had the opportunity to hear what you're saying, so anyone has that right.

@Nowell: That's why you keep your keyring with you; the keypad just means you don't have to pull it out of your pocket/backpack every time you want in to your room.

@Grewal: This. Your kidneys need water to filter your blood, and when they don't get enough to operate, your liver has to take over, which lowers its ability to break down the fats from your food before they fully enter your system.

@Manly McBeeferton: A theater does not have the right to arrest someone for "disrupting other movie goers experience" unless it involves something like the classic case of yelling "fire" in the crowded theater. Being rude is not a criminal offense, neither is operating a cell phone within a theater, unless you're

@btrovo: That's funny, I installed my family pack install on my mom's Tiger computer, and I just installed a $29 copy my hostess mistakenly bought on my her Tiger laptop. Works fine.

@Jackhole: Yeah, I've dropped my 3G on all sorts of surfaces from various heights. Once it hit concrete, however, it was lights out. Like Kaiser said, concrete gives much less than anything else you'll probably drop it on, and all those raised pebbles concentrate the force into much smaller areas. Concrete is the

@colin8651: good eye, it looks like it could easily be a grease or rubber transfer from something else in his pocket.

@Lord_Data: I bought a 3G used, and while AT&T sent me a few "get an iPhone plan or else" text messages, they never did anything. This may have been because I used FakeAPN ([www.unlockit.co.nz]) as soon as I got the phone, to prevent it from even checking in with the data servers. Make sure you reapply it after every

@iamjames: the first words of TFA are "Mac/Linux:". These words are literally directly before the words you quoted.

@SewerShark: I believe the author's point is that Windows should be able to open an ubiquitous standard file format (not to mention one of its own creations) in an included app out of the box. He shouldn't have to buy something to do basic editing.

@Crisss1205: but that's a restriction placed by the government for safety reasons, not a restriction placed by the manufacturers so they can sell you their brand of tint (although many do), nor is it to protect the car manufacturer's copyright.

@Jeremy: iTunes has a new feature that will let you convert songs to 128 kbps AAC on the fly when you import them to your iPod/iPhone, etc. It will only convert songs that it's importing to the iDevice, and I think it converts *every* song that it imports, so you don't get to pick and choose. I'm not sure if it keeps

@Johnny Bosche: I had the same issue last night. I called the Apple store this morning, and they said the upgrade will come up when they actually tie the phone to your account on purchase. The price on the website is just a quote, for lack of a better term, and is in no way official.

@InsidiousTuna: Good to hear man! Decided against teh AT&T store then? I never was able to get AT&T to talk to the Apple server, so I called Apple this morning and confirmed that they'll be able to check my upgrade status when I go to the store to pick it up.

@seven5suited: you're correct, but that's also what people said about the floppy.

@jdale: you realize if they kill it, all that crud will find its way on to internet radio in one form or another. Let that spectrum be a honeypot, to keep your own preferred medium clean.
