ISP box

Anyone stupid enough to use ISP mailbox desevers everything coming to them - c'mon - why'd anyone lock their e-mail to an account that they'll lose access to once they change the provider?

Obsolete tech

So, the thing is not even released yet, but it's already inferior to my current PC. Decline!

...python smython

Good. Meaningful whitespace is just plain wrong:)

Comes with a FREE! shock-collar

Device will come with a shock-collar (free installation) - jolts will be administered if the FOV of the device is interfered in any way.

Sweden can offer assurances

1) Swedish court can allow or disallow extraditions

2) All extraditions are confirmed by Swedish current regime. Regime has a final say if the extradition should proceed. Regime cannot order extradition disallowed by the court.

3) Swedish regime can use a legal option of "temporary surrender" where subject can be extradited without the courts.

So, it's perfectly legal and possible for Swedish regime to guarantee that Assange does not get sent to US.

This is old news

Java has been disabled on all my boxes for years now.

@fixed that for you

Rival phone makers including Nokia, who came up with its own nano-SIM design, thwarted Apple's nefarious plan to patent its nano-SIM blueprint and claim royalties from everyone using the standard by successfully lobbying ETSI to set up an official standard for the nano-SIM.

Why stop there?

They could use the poll feature for actual voting.

People living in glass houses should not throw stones..

VM has lots of issues on its own - one of the most galling ones is selling more broadband connections than they can physically service - they classify the issue as "Oversubscription" fault(sic!) with so-called "fix" time that could take months.

Sheriff of Nottingham

Could the sheriff of Nottingham please elaborate on the "confusing an unhelpful" nature of the data? Would there be evidence unexplained write-offs and details or sweetheart deals? Would people be confused why the hell did they elect anybody currently in the council? Do they mean that released numbers would be unhelpful because good people of Nottingham find doing sums difficult and would only get a headache?

problem?

EPEAT tests are not realistic. Let's face it - these laptops will be eventually disassembled by the slave children from the 3rd world, whose deft and experienced fingers won't have any problems removing the said battery.

Li-Ion is so last century

Now, where can I get my hands on a beta-decay battery for my phone?

about time

Ok, where do I get my hands on one? Also, has Apple sued them over the i<Device> moniker already?

nordic-schmordic

My fellow countrymen, who keep claiming that Estonia is a Nordic country, always crack me up. It's Eastern Europe - just face it:)

Estonian.

consolitis

PC, xbox and playstation - graphics quality will be from the 90-s then, I presume. They never learn - develop a proper PC version first, then produce the lower quality version for the great unwashed.

fugly

looks plasticky. who'd ever want one?

You're looking at it the wrong way

Anything that registers/blocks the xxx domain in order to prevent it from being used and NOT offering xxx services should automatically lose a case against anyone who wants to provide smut on that domain - this is what the domain is for, after all.

*yawn*

Wake me up when the next Meego device is released. No need to hurry - I am happy with my N9, but I would like a new one at some point.

matching bullets to the gun

Matching can be done at the time the bullet is loaded into the breech - just overwrite the identificator with the one assigned to the gun at the moment - this could be set at the factory or randomly generated for each shot. There's even no need for wireless connection - simple I2C or 1-wire contact point would suffice.

Mars mission success/failure information - data is up to date until 2007.

Meego

Can I run Meego on dis'?

Meego

Can I install Meego on it? If not, I suggest to crush these and use the material to build a raft for shipping Elop back to the colonies.

Bookeen

I owned a bookeen cybook gen3 device - loved it's screen quality. Only problem was that it tend to crash quite often. One had to do a hard reset and then laborosly get back to the page where it crashed - not easy on these devices. I felt like artillery officer - jump to page 3000. Overshot! Adjust to 2000! Finally I adjusted my reading habits so I went back to the library screen after every couple of hundred pages to force it to store the location and make it easier to recover from crash.

This was an obvious software problem, but they were never interested in providing a firmware update to fix that nagging issue.

Non-issue

All this outcry for a non-issue - surely nobody has the "send usage data to Google" option enabled. If they do, then it's obviously not a false positive and MS was right to mark it as a trojan:)

missed one

All tables are set on the trestles.

Are there any hotmail accounts that are NOT hacked?

I've had had to treat as spam/ignore/unfriend most of the people with hotmail addresses for some period of time - they all have sent spam or viruses at some point. Now, does this say something about the type of the people who use hotmail or does it say something about hotmail?

Lucky bastard

I had to pay over 50 quid for my blank Das Keyboard.

yeehaw!

bye-bye expert-exchange.com, *.info, *.cn and http://*review*:)

Had to check the calendar for this one.

Hotmail? It's 2011,folks. Nobody is using hotmail anymore.

amazon ebook pricing fail

Amazon ebook prices are totally unreasonable. I buy a lot of books from WebScription.net, but until amazon gets their act together, amazon distributed stuff will come from p2p. I suggest everyone to vote with their wallet and refuse to buy any media from them until the prices come down.
