Really? Take a glance over at http://notachristian.org/christianatrocities.html and start counting the 10's of millions killed in the name of Christ.

Correct, total Payments, not total Orders.

It proves that the original statement that Humble Bundle makes more money from Linux & Mac combined than from Windows. You know, what I was commenting on. Showing that the parent of my original comment was wrong.

Where did he say that was before taxes and expenses?

Really? I guess you can't read pie charts http://www.humblebundle.com/

I'm looking at the Toshiba Tablet. It has one feature I really like: "Battery Replaceable? Yes, and you can do it without and tools." A full sized USB port and an SB port don't hurt, either.

Yes, they do. They need data about usage and location so they can track cell usage growth (or decline) in areas that might need more cell towers to handle the load. The data could be anonymized, though.

Come on, once they started selling PLEX, you've been able to trade real life money for ships, items, etc. This will just make the relationship more obvious.

If you read the article, they did appeal and had the damages reduced to $27,000. They are appealing that to get it further reduced. They have already lost, twice (original case by not responding and the appeal), now it's just for the court to determine damages. As for free speech issue, it's really not. We have to assume that the spammer in this case was not breaking any laws. As such they were, as much as we might find it annoying, a legitimate business. Being called a 'spammer' might have an effect on this business and that is why they filed the lawsuit. While you have the right to say what you want, with that right comes the responsibility for what you have said.

And as someone else pointed out, no matter what happens, they will have a hard time collecting anything due to the jurisdictional issue.

No. Because they didn't respond to the first case, they lost and now have to pay. What they are trying to do is get the payment as small as possible. $1 judgement usually means "You are right, but you have suffered no real damages but we have to award you something".

I'd be more interested in seeing the graduation rate. I see a lot of people on programming forums who have no business being in a CS program.

For $25 do I only get ads for a week or two? Or for the rest of the devices lifetime? It's not worth the discount if the latter.

One of my favorite problems was from my Dynamics class:
Given a VTOL aircraft of weight W that is carrying G gallons of fuel (with weight of X kg/gallon), burning Z gallons per second from two engines that provide Y thrust each, and are angled A from the vertical. Where is the plane after 3 seconds? 7 Seconds?

Isn't that just word problems? I've always enjoyed them, but I knew most of my classmates dreaded them.

So where are the non-free apps that don't ask for permission to everything on the phone? I don't see them out there either.
