I want to say THREE words to you. Cabbage Patch Kids. Think about that.

In Soviet Russia, project names YOU.

I don't agree that that e-gifts mainly support the entertainment industry. There's tons of various e-gifts, including such companies like NewEgg, ThinkGeek, and even Kickstarter. At least then you know that the cash isn't going to support the entertainment industry. Second, you think that you don't support the entertainment industry by pirating, but you're still listening to their damn music and watching their damn movies!! If you truly don't support it, then don't even pirate. Your just as bad as the people who buy their crap.

That's incorrect. If you read the article on nature.com, it states that the rise in temperature was 2.4 +- 1.2 C, not F. The 2.4 was also twice what was expected.

I would even say the "archaeologist," too. Personally, I think the Mars Rovers are, in a way, archaeologists.

When I saw the article at first, I immediately thought this had to do with the Python programming language - since this is Slashdot. Boy, was I wrong. Hmmmm... Maybe the editor just saw the word 'python' and didn't actually read TFA? Probably, since this is Slashdot.

Because they pay people to move their microwave ovens and custom kitchen deliveries. They move those refrigerators and those color TVs.

True, but there are a few benefits that the other carriers don't have.
1. You can pay a higher down payment to reduce your monthly payment.
2. You can pay off your balance early to reduce your monthly payment.
3. You can upgrade at any time.

Right. Plus, the customer can even put more down up front and pay less over the course of the 20 months. The customer can also pay off the installment plan early, too, which would also reduce their monthly bill. The other carriers won't let you do that.

Also a song - "One," by Metallica.

I actually think that's a cool idea and would love to see that happen. I might have to seriously look into making this happen. So, that first time you look up into the night sky and see "Eat at Joe's" lighting up the sky, you'll know that you are the reason why.

As for all the ads all over the place. I don't mind them. I just block them out when I want (yes, even in real life). Who the hell needs adblock? But I do like the information as well sometimes. Occasionally it's entertaining, but it's a good, quick way to know when something cool is coming out or a new restaurant is opening. And a downtown without loud and gaudy blinking signs all over the place? That's not a downtown! That's a ghost town.

I had almost the same thing happen to me, but I had "won" $25 million from a Nigerian prince, who was in exile. I never did receive my money though.

The terms are also "nondistributional," so you're not really allowed to even give it to someone else.

Now when I call my girlfriend, "Dear," I know in my head which definition I really mean.

Oh, dear.
