These should be check boxes, not radio selections! I want to vote on more than one thing! (it REALLY shits me when programs and pages don't stick to that paradigm, by the way... Check boxes implies tick any, radio selection implies select one).
Yes, that's the funny thing about that word 'favorite'...
As an added bonus, they can keep selling PS2s now, too.
Not to me. I'd much rather have a single device hooked up for both PS2 and PS3 games. As is, I just emulate PS2 games on rare occasions when I really want to play one.
Not on the list but here's why I'll never buy anything Sony ever again. Three years ago I purchased a Vaio notebook and within six months the letters had started to wear off of the keyboard
Not the keyboard letters!
Plus traffic on the Kessel run is murder these days.
You're thinking parsecs, man.
Why am I picturing a bunch of fat, pasty white guys living in their mom's basement endlessly fiddling with their mice (ahem) in order to
Because you're an asshole.
You're on slashdot making fun of people with technology-based hobbies?
What are some of your hobbies, I'm sure we can berate you over them in some fashion.
You know, people said that about EverQuest, when WoW came out. That the idea of WoW beating EQ was simply absurd because there were so many people playing EQ who wouldn't want to simply switch.
I'm pretty sure that it was a different kind of people who played EverQuest. The appeal of WoW is just so much broader. I'd say the current WoW has more in common with FarmVille than Everquest
Oh my god, this is the best line I've ever heard. I'm going to troll the shit out of the WoW-players with this.
Thank you, so much.
Oh no, THREE HUNDRED degrees celsius!!! Whatever will they do?
Perhaps they shall bake a cake.
I drink maybe a soda, or two, a year. Now, the bottle may end up being as toxic as the stuff in it.
That's cool, I can respect someone that doesn't drink sodas because they're unhea--
Just don't start shipping my RedBulls in the things..
DERP.
Speaking of which, regarding these kinds of surveys, doesn't that violate the Facebook terms of service?
And doesn't Facebook ask you to "verify" your acount ("for your protection", of course), like Paypal, after a while?
If so, how did they (the researchers) get a credit cart for Freddi Staur?
Uh, last I checked I haven't ever given Facebook my credit card number.
Have you?
So your HR people systematically screen out good people based on useless qualifications.
Yours doesn't?
Where do you work? I'll put in an application tonight.
Stuff that matters? Are you kidding? What's next? Filing weather forecasts?
...Discovery of new species posted as a Slashdot Science story. And you're complaining? Give me some examples of what YOU think the Science column should post.
Head wash -> back massage -> chiropraxis -> open heart operations -> brain tumor removal -> handjob.
umm. I think I can speak for all present when I say we are more than comfortable with that handjob being available right now.
You think wrong.
(1) There's no space between TV channels. They all run directly next to one another, like books on a shelf.
That's not how frequency works, no. It's quantized arbitrarily into numbers, it isn't literally a block in space.
(2) The white space devices operate ON channel not between channels. So if there was an empty slot at 50, the device on connect to the internet ON channel 50.
If this is the case then that's an entirely different matter. The article doesn't mention that, but I don't have reason to argue if you've heard otherwise.
(3) The problem is that 50 is not open in the northeast. It's occupied. The entire TV band is full.
The article and materials I've read previously on the matter suggest that opening whitespace is regional, and for instance "channel 50" wouldn't be available for this use in areas where it was already in use for TV or something.
Cool, we can send those regs back in time, so the installed base of equipment will not be interfered with. Obvious and simple.
Both because you know ahead of the time that those rules will "interfere" with pre-existing equipment, and because it simply CANNOT BE ALLOWED that regulation changes affect anything already in place.
What was your point again?
The best things in life go on sale sooner or later.
