There are three reasons why I leave mine open:
1. It makes me feel all altruistic
2. I live in a suburb with a lot of people. Not a lot of tech savvies who'll take advantage of it.
3. It protects me from liability. If anyone tries to tell me I did something wrong (legally) with my connection, they won't be able to prove it was me, which makes it quite a bit harder.

Really cool. And eMusic doesn't have it yet. hmph.

dculberson: I disagree. I've been using autotints as my default glasses for two years now, and I'm really happy with them.

That is so incredibly awesome. I want it as an mp3, so I can use it as my ringtone.

I concur with Slugabed. This alone isn't gonna be able to play GH.
It would be fun if there was a controller for the artificial fingers, so you could play GH remotely.

The swastika is not a nazi symbol, damn your eyes.

Dillinger: The scary thing is that they won't even tell where the fucking line is. I'm so fucking angry right now, I think I need to have about half a pack of fags.

Yes! I'm so looking forward to my next trip to the US! It's like a fortune cookie of annoyance, degradation and danger.
Do you know what the very first article of my country's constitution is? "Human dignity shall be inviolable". I'm suddenly very proud of that.

Let the stupids infest their computers with DRM.
Also: Even if it's free, it's crap. And if enough people jump on this - cuz' it's free, doncha know - the level of manure they will endure on their HDs will be lowered. And suddendly paying 5 bucks to rent a self destructing copy of the newest episode of Wife Swap won't seem so bad.

Winamp. Haw. Man, that shit didn't die yet? Haven't used that ever since AOL bought nullsoft. Try Amarok. It's worth switching to Linux just for the awesometastic music powerhouse that Amarok is.

What's new about this? My step-father's Mercedes does this, and that car is over two years old (granted it doesn't use the display in the middle for GPS data).

Does it even matter that American congress has a Dem majority? It seems to be the same conglomerate of nodding monkeys it used to be.

Ain't sure where to put it put I have a suggestion for the site:
Could you put rss-feeds for the individual comment-threads in there so people can keep track of those without having to manually check them?

I'm thinking there's two kinds of users here: Those who check BBGadgets anyway, and those who don't care. These BBGadgets-roundup posts are superfluous for both.
