If you shoplift a movie, the store pays for it. The store already bought the movie from a distributor, so the MPAA already has their cut of the pie and they don't care what happens to it. If you download a movie, the MPAA doesn't get the revenue that it feels it deserves.
While the net cost to society is probably about the same either way, people get punished more if they steal from organizations with large legal budgets.
When I turn my laptop's backlight all the way down, the battery lasts 2-3 times as long as if it is all the way bright. I would like to have a solar powered display.
Do they have a precise definition of what constitutes "obsolete hardware?" If they're talking about functional obsolescence, then a calculator may not be obsolete for decades. A CD-R becomes obsolete the moment that someone copies an AOL CD. A Pentium 4 becomes obsolete the moment that it belongs to my grandmother.
53% of U.S. kids were unable to read the results of the study. Of those that could read it, 76% had trouble with the concept of percentages and 62% were confused by the presence of punctuation marks.
This could also be part of a plan to allow soldiers to function without their high-tech gear. The Navy, for example, still trains sailors to navigate at sea using a mechanical clock and a sextant. It's a backup system in case GPS stops working.
It's an interesting book from an academic standpoint. I'm not sure how practical it is, though. It's all about cryptanalysis the old fashioned way (i.e. before computers). Still, I suppose it is good to acknowledge that the enemy may surprise us by taking a low-tech approach.
It's got to be the blade. I own a razor, but I don't own an iPod. I have a face covered with stubble. Ergo, the iPod is the blade. In other words, I'll shave again just as soon as someone buys me an iPod.
If you're putting things that way, then "OS/2" would only be half of an operating system. And "Windows 2000" would be extremely bloated. This really actually explains a lot.
I'm sure that owners of these printers will have to pay a heck of a lot for small refill cartridges. Probably almost as much as they pay for ink for their regular printers.:-)
Another option to consider is Intacts. (Tiny bit of info available at http://www.bellevue-lasik.com/lasik-information/la sik-alternatives.html)
The big advantage of Intacts is that they are removable in case of complications or upgrades.

That's how I learned it, too. Until now that is.
I have a digitial design teacher who wants us to read non-decimal numbers from right to left and decimal numbers from left to right. How's that for throwing a wrench in the works?
Check out the ICP Vortex cards. They are generally well supported by Linux. The part number will be in the format GDTwxyzRx. Any card with 6 in the x position (e.g. GDT8623RZ) supports clustering like you described. Only one server will see the drives at any given time. If the primary server fails, the secondary one will automatically take ownership of the drives.
I would like more information about this telemarketer database you mentioned. I have heard of some databases like this at the state level, but never at the national level. Thanks.
I heard a radio interview a few days ago where the guest stated that it is impossible to make a pumpkin fly more than about 4/5 of a mile. The reason is that the pumpkin will disintigrate if it breaks the sound barrier.

Not at all. The original was paid for, but the copy would not be. It would be the same as downloading it.

SCO claimed ownership of Linus Torvalds and is threatening to sue anybody who quotes him.

Somebody should tell these people that gratuitously pointing at the obvious can damage the index finger.
I figured this out and replied to my post before I saw your post. I think you're right.

Actually, Gates worked as a programmer in the early days of Microsoft.

Yeah, they'd probably sentence you to 10 years in a cell with Jar Jar.
Don't let the MPAA find out that you viewed the crawler text on-line. They'd freak!!!

Is Apple going II use Roman numerals IV OS XI? By the way, If I were a Roman script kiddie, I'd be lIIIIIIt. :-)
Maybe not. But I bet that the cartridges that ship with the printer are only half full.

Oh, yeah. That would do it. More damage to the target, too. :-)

Can anyone confirm this?
