After sitting on it for a day, I couldn't resist any more - I bought the EEE PC. The white was sold out already (!) so I picked it up in black for $3 more (which I assume is a "coolness tax"). I was tempted to go for one of the candy-colored ones, but the 2-tone-ness of them bothered me (white base, colored top). I am both excited and a little terrified - I hope this turns out well - WE SHALL SEE

"Because you know where there's file-sharing there might be some crack"
It's more like, where there's crack, look for file-sharing and/or bootlegging. She says to use it as a tool. I'm staunchly against prosecuting for file-sharing, but this isn't about arresting otherwise law-abiding citizens for their music. It's about using this law as a stepping-stone to getting people for other crimes. It's a video for prosecutors and cops in violent crime divisions, saying "This is useful to you. Pay attention to this."

Granted, I haven't seen the whole video, but "qualifying an RIAA investigator as an expert" sounds like it has to do with actually convincing a grand jury or judge that this person is an expert. When an attorney calls an expert witness, they have to qualify them before the jury or presiding judge, because expert witnesses are given more flexibility when they answer questions - what they say can be taken as fact, not just opinion or observation. An expert witness can say "This is how it is", instead of "This is what I think" or "This is what I saw".

This reminds me of the Powder Game, which has less actual physics and more explosions and opportunities for destruction.

Like...biological erector sets?
Will there be home-kits where you can make tiny dinosaurs or subservient monkey butlers?
Could - dare I dream - the monkeys be given a humanoid larynx in order to sass back?
Three-eyed piglet with two snouts

It has THREE eyes, as the article clearly states, which is WAY cooler than just one.
And both mouths can feed at once, suggesting it has more than one, or at least a Y-shaped, esophagus.
Awesome!
