I am from Europe and it seems fair for the reasons listed by the court. Read the actual PDF and their reasoning; it is very conclusive and clear. The part that weighs so heavy is the planning, the full intent and showing absolutely no remor

I have a 55 inch Samsung and it was considerably affordable. And even a 42 inch full HD can keep up with a 20 foot screen when you factor in the different distance you will be sitting from it. And 5.1 speakers or sound-bars do not cost a fo

You are completely missing the point. This IS the internet, as an honest paying customer you should not have to jump through those hoops in the first place.

They sell popcorn, candy, drinks and ice cream at quite a few regular counters in the lounge there. And, yes, in the theaters once you sit down, they turn off the lights, show you commercials, then they turn on ALL THE LIGHTS again and (usu

Seriously, frakk the frakking useless GEMA and frakk that youtube "sorry, not available in your country" screen. I am trying to see something on the internet for crying out loud!

Fellow European here - I was going to say the same thing: I have practically no options of watching any current shows, a lot of FANTASTIC shows don't even make it over here and most of the German translations are abysmal in terms of being w

The one ultimate mystery... practically everyone is absolutely certain that about 90% of the people are idiots and 10% are pretty kick-ass!

It is interesting how synonymous "hacking" and "programming" has become with "web programming" all of a sudden over the last few years...

How difficult would it be to make a proxy for it and make minitel accessible world wide? Do they bill you per minute?

With prestel, BTX and MUPID there were quite a few prior technologies but to my knowledge, this only really took off like that in France due to substantial public funding. Prestel in UK died and BTX in Germany/Austria was but a novelty AFAI

I hate to say it but I think generally this "trend" has already started a few years back when the "average joes" and non-techs started using the internet... all of a sudden you have to deal with cyber mobbing etc. Of course when big busines

I have the same impression - their conclusions must have already been there and they just plugged in a few studies that might sound relevant and they left quite a few gaping holes there.

The CEO decision at Pfizer is a horrible example, if you ask me. All we know is that one manager was perceived as assertive and occasionally "abrasive" while the other one was "fair" and then when the abrasive guy was picked, they conclude

Good point - then again, how many 66-word sentences do I usually write and is that enough to "identify" me? And see bugsy's reply, there is a looong sentence there too.

Some of those "red flags" on the check list are so incredibly grave, just two or maybe just one alone should be more than enough to set off the "psycho alarm". (cruelty towards animals and kids and bragging about it? Come on?) > Still,

What I miss in modern games is... really fun, great jump n runs and fun adventures like "Monkey Island" seem to be a dieing or already dead genre. It is all about MMOs, RTS, role playing, shooters and sports games nowadays.
