Stage lights are the best, if you leave so much as a finger print on those while you install them they'll explode when you turn them on. Other then that they get hot enough that old ones I pull out will have very large bubbles in them.
Well here in Canada alot of police officers choose not to enforce the pot smoking laws. So far this hasn't led to a massive breakdown in law & order or police abuse, just a bunch of relaxed police officers and pot smokers. Yep ignoring that law sure seems to have worked out pretty well, maybe we can try a few more in the near future.
I have a patent on bits and your patent is an unlawful derivative of mine! I demand you hand over the patent and pay 1omgwtfillion dollars in damages or I'll sue you!
Actually its the job of the police to carry out these laws, and it's the job of the judge to ensure that this is done properly. The government job is only to pass laws it shouldn't have a role in carrying them out.
Well the actual operation of a nuclear warhead is pretty simple: Bring to hefty chunks of U-238(?) together really fast. Now you can add fancy blast reflectors, shaped charges, little bits of foam padding and various exotic materials or even use something other then Uranium and although these will give you a much bigger bang they are very complicated to sort out. the big problem though with a nuclear warhead though is that it is VERY difficult to get to anywhere but your backyard, people generally notice things likes nukes crossing borders and an ICBM is a bit of a bitch to obtain.
Given how rarely I restart my Linux boxes I'd much rather have the far simpler init.d system then the complex unproven Upstart system. Especially in situations where the only access I have is SSH or similar.
Double encrypt the data with two 2048 bit keys placed on 2 separate CDs carried by 2 different people on 2 different flights then have a 3rd person carry a CD with the encrypted data on a 3rd flight. For even better protection ensure that the 3 people do now know each other or the nature of the data they are carrying. Of course it may not be the most practical solution but if latency is not a factor it's going to take a very dedicated criminal/idiot to steal/leak this data.
Hah! That pretty much describes all the science classes I've ever taken. First day of class always went something like this "Just kidding all that hard work you did was actually pointless. This is hows the universe "actually" works. *snicker*"
I wonder if me and a few friends decided to go to LAX and shine lasers into the cockpit of planes of final, how long would it be before possessing a laser point would win you a free one way ticket to Guantanamo Bay?
The parachute idea is a good one and could potentially save some lives there is still the problem that you have to come down somewhere and especially in an urban area where you might see these things theres alot of very bad places to come down on. The other thing is that you still have no guarantee that the safety systems will be maintained, I work in an auto shop doing oil changes and tire repairs so I know for a fact that there are all to many people who fail to even bring in there cars every 3 months and spend $30 to get there oil change despite the fact that if they don't it will create all sorts of very expensive hell, or the people who will drive there tires until the tread is completely gone and the metal belts are showing. There are even people who will drive them beyond that till the tire completely blows and then then continue to drive on the rim and then expect you ti fix their tire.
Sadly it's not quite that simple. For instance if you don't take care of your car and it breaks down on the highway you simply pull over and wait for the tow truck driver to haul your sorry ass away to the garage where a mechanic will call you a dumbshit and charge you huge chunk of cash to fix your car. You don't take care of your flying car and it breaks down at 5000' you die along with everyone else in the plane with you and whichever sorry bastard you hit on the way down.
Well I'm here how do you propose to develop an aircraft that can't descend to fast or doesn't flip over in midair? Because if you have a solution I'm sure just about every aircraft manufacturer in the world would be prepared to offer you anything you want for it.
It doesn't matter. The moment he tries to read the stream to see whether the data is garbage or not he has changed the quantum properties and the receiver will know someone is listening. It is theoretically impossible to discern anything about the stream without being detected.
It's because of Pagerank, both Wikipedia and IMDB are linked to from many thousands of sites and as such they have an insanely huge pagerank virtually guaranteeing there spot at the top of any listing. So although you may not agree with it they are at the top because many other people do use it as a reference.

Here is a bunch of old optical illusions that you've seeen a billion times before. We still aren't to sure what causes them.

Smile for the pictures and please exit the podium to your left.
I generally find it easier to jsut grab the net stream before it even gets to the sound card but that's just me.
Wait a minutes, so he DIDN'T say WinSock? Ahhh shit I might be in trouble here.

Me too! I guess that makes us the entire opera market share.
Are you SURE that's the reason you pick a female doctor?

Bah, just start using 128 bit floating point numbers.

You mean like a worst case scenario RFID environment? Might be interesting to see if anybody comes up with a system to extract usable info from this.

But seriously, there is a good reason unfortunately I haven't yet taken enough physics to adequately understand it much less explain it.

Well 1,2 and 4 happen at the same time all the time but 3 only happens in advanced university physics labs under very carefully controlled conditions.

Reminds me of how people are always amazed at the things you find in a nerds toolkit.

I would be more worried about all the Americans who are abroad with Canadian flags on there backpack.
