$549 for the 3GS. I absolutely shudder to think of what the iPhone 4 will sell for. I'm going to guess about $749.

Moneybookers has $950 of my money (not a lot, I know, but it is to me) and is holding it hostage. I'm thoroughly displeased with them, in comparison to some others I know who have had no problems with them, even when dealing in much larger

"It has a number of glaring flaws and no marketability, but by golly it's secure!" Everything has a market. Some things just have a very, very narrow market :) In seriousness though, in its current form it may not be that appealing but the

Or consider that he's from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, which means there is an odds-on chance his first language is actually French instead of English.

I learned French almost entirely by helping raise my (now ex) girlfriend's 6 year old son. Best teacher I could have asked for, and he wasn't even trying to teach me :) She was also very helpful as she was a native French speaker, but flue

It helps call attention for contributors to Socknet, regardless of whether or not it finds use in Diaspora.

I wouldn't rate the motorcycle velcro mount high on my list of safety-conscious ideas, either.

Doesn't sound at all like that's what the parent poster is trying to say. Sounds more like a caution against posting anything, anywhere, that could be harmful or damaging to oneself, while harbouring the unreasonable expectation that it wi

Written much, much better than I could have phrased it - I was searching for a way to write what you just did. Thanks.

The implementation is completely unimportant. For as long as there has existed youthful exuberance (read: stupidity - we are all young or once were), there exists the risk and responsibility to own up to the consequences of ones actions. I

I still don't follow 100%. If there are two people in a photo, how does your input supercede theirs, on how it is used or not used?

Of the N people in your party scenario, who owns the photos/live recording? How can you retract something that someone else might want to publish, or might not object to being published?

I certainly don't have any good answers (does anyone? This is probably an intensely difficult area to quantify/qualify) but here is a decent article discussing women (edit) in IT, put forth by the National Center for Women and Information T

(To the author) You probably don't, and that's okay. The most valuable things I took away from my education experiences: 1) You've learned (or should have learned) how to learn new things. Don't stop once the dean hands you your degree. 2

I'm not saying you're right or wrong, or that your point is right or wrong, but with as strong a statement as you made in point #2, you should cite references - even if only so that others can be aware of the situation.

You're making some very well reasoned points here too, and got my upvote. I'm not sure if it's just being accustomed to Apache and GIMP as long-standing products, or what exactly, but I don't get quite the same visceral negative response t

I respect your underlying point, but I can't accept your examples as tasteless. Apache was named such in homage to the Apache nations (at least according to the Apache Foundation): "The name 'Apache' was chosen from respect for the various

I thought something similar myself. The notion of diaspora doesn't exactly conjure up warming thoughts, but instead someone displaced (of their own volition or not) from their native homes. It is a very emotionally charged concept.

I think your points relating rock, paper, scissors are especially interesting given your reference to Rafe Furst, who probably would also have a thing or two to say on the same subject :)

The difficulty with this (and any other sites it resembles - quibids, for example) is that there is absolutely no good reason to believe that there aren't bots behind the scenes driving up the bids. As an exercise in curiosity one day I wat

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or doing something wrong, but following the author's directions, none of my links are mangled whatsoever - copying the google.com link simply pasted google.com. I do have Javascript enabled as stated.

Ah, thanks tons to you as well for the info. That eases my slightly-neurotic worry a lot :)

The info is appreciated. Is there any means by which to set it back to "normal", so to speak, using themes or other customization features?

Is anyone aware if the left-justified max/min/close buttons are still left-justified, or if that was corrected? There was an article about a month ago discussing this (and its inherent silliness) but I'm not sure if it still exists as such

Yep, most services or search engines choose to respect the convention, but if the article indicates properly, it doesn't sound like the robot in question here was trying to be particularly kind or gentle in its work.

by jat850 17y ago
As robots.txt is entirely optional (there's not even an RFC governing it), what it says or doesn't say isn't even technically violated in any way here, let alone legally. (I apologize, I don't know how to do proper citations on here but ht

I have to agree with you. It seems like a tremendous waste of resources, listening to and algorithmically calculating when, where, and between whom these transactions occur. Seems like it's simply wrapping a transaction in an entirely extr
