Yes. Last year's tax preparation expenses is a deduction, if you are itemizing. If you take the standard deduction, then it's irrelevant.

SCO are a measurement of degrees of patent trolling. "That bullshit Linux case was well over a million SCO units!"

The unit you want is SHU.

Will this be called F-WAD?

It's official. The name is now changed to MtGotchya.

I think it was an inside job. Some employee of Dice absconded with all the mod points!

Dorian Nakamoto?

I suppose he has a picture of a dollar in his attic, and every time a Bitcoin is mined, it fades a little...

Yeah, but they have no Bitcoins left to hire them with!

I like belalaikas best!

Back in the USSR!

Engraving is the only (mostly) unremovable way to mark things, and I have found in the past that the simple phrase "Reward If Found" and a phone number have gotten me and several friends some of their items back. Either that, or "Stolen From (insert Name)". That way, even if the thief doesn't think better of his acquisition, he'll at least be reminded he's a morally corrupt shitbag every time he picks it up.

I think he's just homeless and faking it.

{in perfect Japanese, of course} "Move along."..

"Hey, I'm just... waiting... yeah, for the next IPhone, that's it!"

"Oh, Okay..."

It's just a stupid as the US response taking out and replacing every part of every computer and network that Snowden accessed.

I mean, really - the CAT-5? Come on. Just a stupid excuse for work and so that they can claim "Oh he did millions of $$ damages, see we had to replace everything including a new coat of paint on the data center".

Absolute tripe.

It is to lose; all the gov't needs to do is recite those magic words "National Security", and they can do pretty much whatever they want. Who can stop them?

Yeah, but at least it won't be starring fucking Ricky Gervais!

Yay! I've been APK'ed!!

Thanks, glad to see you're not dead. ;)

It does make me feel a bit safer. It tells me the web site publisher cares enough to manage the ad content, and to me at least that strikes me as having less of a chance for someone to slip a turd in the punchbowl. The ads were probably reviewed and/or vetted by the site that's carrying them, and even might be, *gasp* relevant! Most of the ads I see carried by the hosting site are not obnoxious and since they are even almost (usually) relevant, I rarely need to block them.

Which is good, because it does make the ads a bit harder to block since they come from the same domain as the main web content. At least I know if I do get some kind of malware, etc. the origin is better known and the blame can be cast in the right direction.
