In my opinion, this ability needs to be removed from the hardware - through the law. Simply having people complain enough that companies don't do this won't solve anything, backdoors will still exist.
Two things:
fuck HTML.

You DON'T have to buy health insurance.
You want to run that by me again?
And if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have heard of Equilibrium. Thanks!
Are you seriously complaining about having too much work? I'm sure some people here would be happy to take it off your hands...
What I find even more unbelievable is that we don't get paper confirmations--receipts--of our votes. When I voted in last year's big election, it was the first time I'd ever voted (I was denied voting access during the previous voting period). After I handed in my ballot to be scanned, I was expecting a receipt confirming that my vote was properly recorded. I got nothing, and the people staffing the polling facility looked at me like I had five heads when I asked if I was going to get a receipt. One woman I spoke to said she'd never heard anybody ask her a question like that before.
Am I just to assume that the machine properly recorded my votes? Where's the accountability in this process? I should be able to audit the public voting record to find my vote. I'm not a person of faith. I need proof. Perhaps that's why many government officials are so supportive of faith-based initiatives?
In fact, forget the booze and the pie!
Asserting that there are mistakes that are too stupid for for any human to make is a mistake that is too stupid for any human to make.
HA! I see through your ruse!
Did you also...
Report the Motel 6 to...
Write scathing reviews on sites like Yelp?
This script would actually make the Kindle worth getting for me! Although, I think I'd end up getting it used out of protest, so Amazon wouldn't end up getting money for mine.
The way things are going, soon Google will will be able to set your alarm clock for you without your direct input. They'll just know what time you need to wake up and voila.
One less thing I have to remember to do... Sign me up!
Right. There are different types of asthma. While some types may be reduced or eliminated by something like running, other types of asthma may be worsened, and running could end up killing the asthmatic. It's possible the effects of "allergic asthma" could be reduced by exercise.
It seems to me like "asthma" is more of a catch-all term used to describe multiple diseases/disorders that happen to present themselves in a similar manner.
I, too, have asthma. Mine is triggered by:
Despite all of these triggers, I have things pretty much under control with daily medications (allergy and asthma), a "rescue" inhaler as needed, and special breathing techniques. I played youth soccer and I was a trumpet and french horn player in my high school's marching and concert bands, although these activities became more difficult the older I got.
My asthma is hereditary, though, so this study really wouldn't apply to me. (I've had asthma since birth.)
Adults with imaginary friends should be given medical help, not Slashdot accounts.
Fixed that for you.
Beautiful... I haven't laughed that hard in months. Bravo!
Stephen Conroy is an asshat.
That is all. Carry on.
The best book on programming for the layman is "Alice in Wonderland"; but that's because it's the best book on anything for the layman.
