It sometimes helps to picture the Slashdot community as a room full of Comic Book Guys. It's probably not far from reality.
FWIW, I think this is a pretty cool project.

Because if they tried to do that, their supporters would then "take a dim view" of their actions. Yeah, that'll show 'em.
Yes indeed, "not again". The US system of taxes on prizes is utterly ludicrous. No way should the recipient of a prize be liable for any kind of payment. Tax the prizes if you must, but that will be payable by the organization that issues the prize.
And don't get me started on a slightly OT rant about the retarded situation that permits US mobile carriers to charge customers to receive SMS messages.
There could be a relationship there.
More likely though is that children grow in bursts and you may have had such a growth spurt coincide with the surgery. Children who have become accustomed to their bodies having certain parameters (height, mass, limb length, etc), can and do often appear clumsy and less coordinated overall for a period when these parameters suddenly change. Although I suspect this is more evident in teenagers.
Would, then, damage caused by exposure to other chemicals such as ethanol not also be flushed in infants?
I find that highly doubtful.
This is another form of DRM.
Of course content providers will salivate over making these devices do just the opposite - provide access to a given device or media for an "approved" period of time before rendering it unusable.
When I grow up I'm going to Lepton University!
No wait...
Any ad that isn't clear about what it's advertising nor confined to a well-defined space on a static page.
The cloud is automation layers to manage virtualization solutions and baremetal as a whole, automate management and deployment. It is about efficiency and accesibility for the enduser. It's about the possibility of exposing resources direct to users on demand.
Now that I disagree with.
The cloud is synonymous with "someone else's computer".
What? I thought it meant the AI itself was the driver and would have to sit a driving test.
What are you going to do about that? Isn't there some clause in your country's constitution that mandates you to fix situations like this?
Determined people can still access content despite the DRM, not because of it.
And now, thanks to the DRM, pirated content has more value than the original product. Who's letting the market decide now?
No.
Mozilla did have a choice. They made the wrong one.
That's not how I read the GP at all.
While the current trends are undeniable and a strong case for human causation exists, climate scientists, or at least people dressing up as climate scientists, often make statements beyond their expertise.
I'm talking about bold predictions such as by year 20xx sea levels will rise by x mm or the polar ice caps will be xx% smaller or Chicago will be xx degrees hotter in winter.
That's what I thought the GP was getting at, but I could of course be mistaken.
I don't really know why he stopped, but my own opinion is that it was because ROTJ nearly killed him. While he didn't direct ESB nor ROTJ, he was still very hands on through it and fretted at every expense.
With your bare hands?!?
