Given the general feeling among the younger German generations that Naziism is "merely" historic, and something they have no special responsibility for as a people...
Most young Germans are just getting tired when Nazism is brought up whenever there's a story about Germany.
What I am saying is that even self-described "liberal" Germans today feel it's acceptable to refer to Turkish Gastarbeiteren as "Germany's niggers"
I never heard this term being used. Perhaps he said it to criticize the situation turkish guest workers live in? All in all they're certainly not worse off than mexican guest workers in the US.
while denying Turks born in Germany the franchise and full citizenship Sad but true. Immigration laws in Germany are pretty hard, and AFAIK you have to have lived in Germany for ten years before you can apply for immigration. Even if you were born there.
It appears your iris is not Aryan. We're not sure, these days, if the problem is that your iris is Arab... I'm under the impression that there is a growing racism against arabic people in the US. And that they often get harrassed at airports, and that the immigration laws are enforced pretty vigorously on them. Am I mistaken?
As far as I can make out, the German Identity Card (Personalausweis) already has a simple kind of radio tag. It's pretty hard to make out, and I wasn't aware of it until recently.
I think making the USPTO pay for at least part of the costs would be a better idea. Because then it wold be in their interest not to grant bogous patents.
As far as I could make out, oil tankers usually ship between 200 000 and 300 000 tons of oil. 200 tons are 53 000 000 gallons.
However, it's often more costly to get something on board of a ship than to actually ship it around the globe. And that's even when you're not delivering to a battlefield.
The work is copyrighted for the author's life plus 70 years. If the material was created under a work for hire agreement, the copyright lasts 95 years from first publication, or 120 years from creation, whichever expires first.
However, it may be more realistic to say that nothing produced after "Steamboat Willy" will ever enter the public domain without the consent of the author (Lex Disney).
Would it really have to be enforced uniformly? Ok. Make it undicriminatory and cheap. Take one cent per license. No company would rise a stink. But it'd be quite a setback for Free software.
In that case you can't work anymore with software at all. No one can tell you that a technology, platform or standard is free of patents or copyrights.
AFAIK for example JPEG has been taken back as an ISO standard because patent claims have surfaced.
The only way to work at the moment is to close your eyes and hope for the best.
AFAIK the instruments of a car HUD seem to hover where the hood ends. They seem to be where mercedes stars were mounted. So they're not directly in your face.
With the Lex Disney, our cultural heritage will be lost. I'm serious about this. Most films older than a few decades have already been lost (est. 80%). And this won't get better with changing data formats, DRM and ever prolonged copyrights.
Basically, the EU is pointing out that the GPS system is a dual-use civilian/military system. If it is used by an enemy the EU might be forced to take it out.
Those girls are welcome to visit the mens restrooms. But no way I'm gonna sit down on a urinal.
PS: I don't know about the US. But in Germany it's quite common for women to use mens restroom if the queue in front of the womens restrooms gets too long. I've been in discos where it has been officially announced that the mens rooms are now free fo the girls to use.
Somehow you only seem to read negative comments about web pads. I don't get it. A friend of mine got a TC 1000 and it's just great.
The device is robust and elegant with it's light metal case and the glass plate. You can attach a keyboard and use it as a (sub-) notebook. You can detach it and snuggle up on a couch and read e-books. In summer, he also brought it to the park for use as a mobile mp3 and video player. (The display is not transreflexive. Works ok in the shadow, but not in the full sun).
My friend uses it as his main machine for development (no, really). The transmeta processor is a bit slow for a workhorse. But apart from that, the machine is pretty much perfect. It has no disadvantages to a notebook and is more flexible. Also the new TC 1100 comes with a faster processor.
Sadly, Windows Tablet Edition hardly makes use of the advantages of a tablet. It's a good device. But with software as carefully designed as the one for the Newton, it could be astonishing.
Personally, I already got a laptop. But I'm thinking about getting a TC1100 nonetheless.
Slashdot Mirror
The Fraunhofer Institute evaluated different biometry systems three or four years ago. All but one system could be fooled without opening them.
The results were so devastating that the institute chose to not fully disclose them.
A photo with a hole for the pupil was one of the techniques used.

Have a look at feature #7.
PS: Could a microwave oven disable them?
AFAIK it's still planned to name version 1.0 of Firefox "Mozilla Browser". Thunderbird will become "Mozilla Mail".
For one, making the losing party pay is a start.

You're thinking of monorails.
This is a maglev.
It routinely does 267 mph.

As immortal as a DVD in a martian sand storm?

Mircrosoft has quite a number of silly software patents it didn't try to enfarce so far.
The one about Undo/Redo-functionality comes to mind.

No. The HUDs seem to require quite a lot of space behind the dashboard. I think it's pretty much out of the question.

Is it the same in the US or are they more prude?
There's a left wing in the US congress? Are you talking about Nader? How many seats does the green party have in congress?
Actually SuSE successfully sued SCO.
You do, however, have copyrighted laws. Laws where you have to pay the company that wrote them, before you can have a look at them.
I'm not joking. I think it's not even uncommon with laws that apply f.e. to the building industry.
I'm unsure whether there are any agreements on the price or whether it's possible to enforce a NDA.
The basic design is very similar.
Pretty much the biggest problems with current VR glasses is that you can get motion sickness, because the display lags.
With contacts, you would have to not only track head movement, but also eyeball movement and compensate it without perceptible lag.
Why would the receiver have to be in the contacs themselves? The information could be transported on the liquid film covering your eyeballs.
Isn't the pertinent question... was this the first?
No. I'm pretty certain that the CCC once smuggled in a backdoor to the login prompt. That must have been pre 1994.
I can't find any more information on this. Does anyone have a link?
