Only in America

"Amazon attorneys say the average person won't appreciate the differences between Amazon and Amazee, thus leading to consumer confusion between the two brands."

Maybe your average American consumer will be confused. After all, many of these people voted George W Bush in, TWICE!

The rest of the world will manage just fine.

Thanks

"DH"

That's appropriate.

He sure sounds like a Dick Head to me.

Paris, well, you know....

Twatter

More lumps of squidgy FAIL

The new model....

1. Allow music on well organised and structured P2P in, say 128kb quality

2. Allow sharing, enjoyment, etc

3. Those who want to BUY the music may do so in a High Quality PAID for download or on CD...

4. Those who were NEVER going to buy the music DON'T.

End

Bunch of masturbating script kiddies!

Meek the Greek?

Well, he is working like a trojan inside govt.

Just goes to show....

...your typical higher education is just a process to make money for some and to let other people feel good about themselves.

It sure has little to do with intelligence or advanced knowledge.

My Zune turned me into a newt!

...but I got better.

It works for me

I find a quick web sojourn into El Reg now and again helps me greatly at work.

It's been my habit for years now.

fixed it

"oppose the basic principles of the Australian Government; jeopardize Australia's unity, sovereignty or territorial integrity, divulge state secrets; and endanger national security or harm national honor and interest,"

Steal a car?

Oh, yes, I have!

Is that a bad thing?

Probably not as bad as downloading B-grade pap from Hollywood.

I predicted this 15 years ago

In the near future we will lose the ability to properly build and maintain complex structures, equipment and devices.

- Basically, Uni degrees are almost worthless.

- These days Uni is now only about the pass-rate and cold hard cash.

- Soon, Uni's will accept any old dolt, if he/she can pay

In 200 years man will be re-discovering the wheel and fire all over again!

Fake stuff?

I think the Chinese are masters at "fake"

Such as fake:

- Goods

- Propaganda

- Freedoms

Free Tibet !!!

Grab your wardbrobe Jaques!

Let us off to storm the Bastille!

The Australians...

...would actually be cheering the new arrivals on!

Aussies like to support the underdog, it's in our blood.

We all love a battler!!!

I see a connection here....

Did he expect an email from The Bishop of Manchester?

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/03/17/malware_hits_church_email/

Could be related !!!

All those messages NOT going out.....

.....and no one noticed for ages.

Sort of says it all really.

This medieval superstitious bullshit should have stayed back in the dark dim past.

Hugh explosion!

Look out behind you!

Typical Chinese

You fill up with Chinese A1 Jet Fuel and an hour later you are already running on empty!

Why do I download stuff?

Because I can.

Yes it's quicker and more convenient than borrowing a LP/Tape/CD/VHS/DVD et al and copying it. However the end result is (probably) an inferior (albeit slight) version of the original.

When I was at high school, we ALWAYS home copied LPs and Tapes, some even bought music, copied it and then returned it to the store for a refund/exchange. (wash, rinse, repeat)

No one was ever prosecuted back then.

What a rude Kent!

They should have tasered him!

I'm sure he wouldn't mind having his civil liberties invaded in such a way.

He certainly doesn't care about ours!

But...

Metallica's music is as weak as bats-piss, so it shoulbe be FREE!

Scam adverts eh?

Some people might step in doggie-doo on a sidewalk.

Many people avoid doing this.

Some people click on 'it's too good to be true' type adverts

Many people avoid doing this.

Can you spot the pattern yet?

No?

Then <click here to win an a gold plated iPod>

What?

Where's the ka-boom?

There's supposed to be an earth shattering ka-boom!

I know....

All religions can SHARE the domain .bollocks

Ye gods!

"delicious ten-piece McNugget treat"

Would they start boring at the Boring's?

Twits hacking other twits who use twitter.

Meh.

This just another fishing trip to

.... Pirate Bay!

Wot? Steal stuff?

Hell yeah!!!

Mr Hitler, come back, all is forgiven

Please, feel free to bomb the god-forsaken place!

It's a total eye-sore on the landscape.

In a McNulty shell

Here is the entire issue in a nut shell:

-> McNulty said her "loose" use of language "plays into the hands of our enemies".

That is, the gubbament just wants us to continually remain scared!

Collective noun for Twitter users?

Why, Twits of course!

(AKA: numpties)

I've always wondered....

....what the "F" was in "F-secure"....

@nagyeger

Sorry, you have been unable to qualify your argument sufficiently.

You must learn to back up your claims with hard evidence.

There will always be a healthy (unhealthy?) percentage of people who will firmly believe the god-myths. After all, it’s in our nature as children to wonder and imagine. However we can go far beyond that as adults.

Our understanding of science will progress, some people will change their mind about omnipotent beings, others will not.

I for one am delighted to have lived in such times, even if 200 years after the great man himself. I am extremely comfortable with evolution as science. I can read the facts and I can try and comprehend it in its entirety. Science is more than any 'god'.

A well-meaning or dictatorial god is not necessary for life, progress or enjoyment. In fact, quite the opposite is found. Without the god-hypothesis, life takes on real meaning!

Ahhh, science, real science, try it some time.

You know it makes sense.

What's all this then?

No go about your normal life citizen.
