I have to agree. I had serious trouble deciding to pay $12 for an indie game the other day. I was absolutely addicted to the demo and had run out of stuff to do there. But that extra $2.00 made it a much tougher decision. It's a mental game, when something is only $10.00 it's almost like not spending money to me. When it's more, I have to put it in the budget.

He actually had about $800K in the bank from the scammers in checks that cleared before he sent $458k back to them, Then the fraud was discovered by the bank and they attached his assets... oops

wrong, peace officers are in a totally different branch of government, Judges are considered officers of the courts

Just to clarify, the courts don't find him, the Cops do. Courts don't really care if they find anyone with subpoena's orders or anything else. It's up to flatfoots (feet?) to make it happen.

I'm tired of Facebook, but there really is no good alternative.

There is being social in person...but that's a little strange for us I admit

uh... is that supposed to be a joke?
Sorry but.... you may want to think you vote for the upfront and honest politician but it is the two-faced one who is best at appearing upfront and honest because he has enough money from as many sides of the same coin as possible.
We hire politicians based on thinly veiled marketing campaigns, and then they go and hire their buddies from law school. It has nothing to do with honesty.

Just a quick note: does a jar of del monte fruit actually have opening instructions? If not how can there be a prescribed manner of opening? I would say the prescribed manner in such a case would be any manner used by any non-trivial number of people. Such as running warm water over it and tapping the edge of the lid (which a LOT of people do to open stuck jars).

reading black text on a white background is hard on my eyes, I can't speak for anyone else. I'm much happier with E Ink than to read off a bleached white background. Look at any book that is meant to be read and doesn't have pictures, you're probably not going to find a whole lot of bleached white paper.

But what if those corporate paymasters use all their ROI's to hire people... Like my wife. So we can keep our house? I won't really give a flying rats ass about the rest then. I have two kids and am getting TOO DAMN CLOSE to foreclosure.

"more jobs added...."

That's hilarious, there wouldn't be the ability to add that many jobs unless unemployment was already so high. And the unemployment number doesn't include people like my wife who is looking for a job and can't get one in her field.

Ok, I'm sure no one would have any reason to read my journal...Heck I didn't know slashdot had anything but comments until last week. I was always wondering what these things people called "summaries" and "articles" were all about. ANNNEEEWAAAY..... So the housing crash is pretty much destroying my family. I have a non-IT job that doesn't make a whole lot of money considering my wife is not working and we have two kids in diapers at home. My credit cards are comin up on maxed out again after

On the other other hand, having a growing number of users switching to OS X and integrating with iOS and doing everything Apple does give some incentive. I have no idea what their market share is now but maybe these tactics show that Apple believes it's enough that they don't have to care too much about developers. Just a shot in the dark though
