As one of the smallest states in terms of population, I wonder how many manufacturers will respond to this by ceasing to sell cars in New Mexico.
People predicted that would happen in California for some emissions standards changes and it didn't, due to the huge population there; but New Mexico is something like 5% as large as California.
How many people will just go to Texas, Colorado, or Arizona to buy their cars? Again, that didn't happen in California, since they require the emissions standards be met to drive the car there; but this bill doesn't make that requirement, so it's a real option.
Unfortunately, there have already been exploits released based on information gleaned from that code. So, at first glance and as far as the understanding of the man in the street goes, it serves Microsoft's point.
Of course, the counter-argument that the cognoscenti all "get" is that if the source had been open since day one, none of those bugs would have made it to the "beta" releases. Joe CEO doesn't understand that, however.
Wilst reducing the chances of life on Europa, it is not ruling it out completely, as there are terrestrial extremophile bacteria which thrive in highly acid environments."
Generally the person making the positive claim is the one with the onus of proof. It's harder to prove a negative.
However, it's very easy to say "there is no evidence that there is a link" instead of intimating that anybody who thinks there is a link must be stupid.
That's the knee-jerk response, but try talking to a professional.
One of the forensics specialists with the Seminole County, Florida, Sherrif's Department told me that it was no easier to fake photographic evidence with a high-resolution digital camera than it was with film. In fact, if he wanted to fake something, he'd probably choose film.
Do you want an old piece of concrete kept up, or do you want to go to the Moon, Mars, Alpha Centauri, and points North before humanity gets wiped out by a big rock or a gamma burster?
Don't say "I want both" unless you're typing this in one window while, in another window, you're writing out a PayPal to the IRS for more than you owed in taxes.
Then, some insane "world leader" decided to use far away Iraq as it's warhound against the building up fundamentalism in neighbouring Iran. This insane leader gave Iraq money to buy weapons and sent military people to train them.
As a result, Iran's plans to kill us got dashed. Or had you forgotten they declared war against the US?
OK, you're saying that if the courts had ruled the government can control whether or not you can put a camera on your own property, that'd be a WIN for privacy rights?
I've only had experience with the DVR Time/Warner cable was offering and it wouldn't let you time-shift anything but PPV content, but I don't know if that applies to Comcast as well.
That doesn't apply to the one from Time-Warner, either, at least not around here.
You might want to let them know about the problem you're having; there were some quality control problems with the DVR units.
I've been time-shifting everything all over the place with my Time-Warner DVR, including PPV. You just have to order the PPV first before you can select it to record.

Q: Mr. President, where are the weapons of mass destruction you said were in Iraq?
A: Syria.
For those who don't have time to read the whole article, here's a synopsis:
"Waaaaaah, the last administration pushed our political agenda, but this one doesn't. I want my mommy!"
Ok, but it's not really a joke. This stuff will absolutely have civilian uses, ranging from weight loss too, yes, coding for days straight.
The "hack your body" folks should be diggin' this.
Ah, a scarlet letter law that not only brands the offender, but his or her entire family. That sounds like a really good idea.
If you don't want your family to be ridiculed, don't drink and drive. People get ridiculed for having a drunk for a father anyway.
Hell, you could make the same argument against selling VW bugs in that awful radioactive green color.

How does Am9 or Am10 "repeal Article 1"?
It doesn't. That's what I said.
My interpretation of the 9th is that it doesn't repeal Article 1.
My interpretation of the 10th is the same.
What we need is to quit acting like animals and actually work for the mutual benefit of everyone.
Oh, great; we have to quit acting like animals and start acting like insects.
9. Even though we didn't mention them, you've got those rights.
10. If we didn't say the feds can do something, they can't.
In light of that interpretation, please justify the federal law against private ownership of nuclear weapons.
I love when discussions turn to how to get around the licensing issues to move kernel code from Linux into XFree86 driver code.
Nobody seems to want to examine the obvious solution; GPL XFree86.
And before you suggest changing the Linux kernel license instead, remember that there are more people who'd have to agree to that than the reverse.
Debian's security is LEGENDARY.
Almost mythical, even.
If legal copies of Photoshop don't work, criminals will only have pirated copies.
Grade school kids screwing around on the school computers, however, won't be able to make bills capable of fooling the Coke machines trivially.
Nobody thinks this will prevent big professional counterfeit rings, including the manufacturers and the Secret Service.

Such as UC Berkeley.

However, it's very easy to say "there is no evidence that there is a link" instead of intimating that anybody who thinks there is a link must be stupid.
For example, in a survey last year, 70% of Americans thought there was a link between Saddam Hussein and 9/11.
Can you prove there wasn't?
I mean, I don't think there was either, but can you prove there wasn't?
I work for a Fortune 500 corp, and our Open Source policy is this:
Stop issuing press releases about it until SCO gets shut down.
That's the knee-jerk response, but try talking to a professional.

I renew my call for a "Clueless" moderation category.

Maybe you can convince a staffer to put yellow paper in the printer and print the emails so they look like telegrams.

BTW, "it's" is "it is". Possessive is "its".

Red Hat is just leaving its users alone...
Yes, leaving them alone. By hosting servers, paying employees to work on Fedora, and spending lots of other money on the project.
I feel so alone. Hold me.
