    Um, then what exactly do you make of this bit? "nor shall any one be excluded from holding office on account of his religious sentiments"

  2. Re:This isn't as bad as it sounds. on Woman's House Robbed After Fake Craigslist Post · · Score: 1

    I doubt any reasonable judge, given your scenario, could possibly find removing a water heater or faucet (permanent fixtures) from a home "hardly robbery".

    It's a bit more dimensional.

  3. Re:Memory speed is how relevant to system operatio on High Performance DDR2 Memory Breaks 1.25GHz · · Score: 1

    Because it saves you from a complete system lockup due to insufficient physical memory?

  4. Re:Well, no more Thomson devices in this household on DSL Gateways to Fight Piracy by Marking Video · · Score: 1
    From Wiki:

    Thomson operates under four strategic brands servicing a variety of global markets: * Thomson: Providing consumer electronics to Europe * RCA: Providing consumer electronics to Northern America * Grass Valley: Providing equipment and services to broadcast industries throughout the world * Technicolor: Providing services to film industries throughout the world In December 2006, Thomson agreed to sell its consumer electronics accessory business, including rights to the RCA name, to Audiovox. Thomson also uses the GE (under license) and other brands for consumer electronics in the United States and Canada. It uses both the Thomson and RCA brands for consumer electronics in Latin America, Asia and the Pacific Rim. Thomson also controls the patents and licensing of the MP3 audio codec.

  8. Do what? on US Planning Response To a Cyber Attack · · Score: 1

    "...or an actual bombing of an attack source."

    Anyone else find this oddly disturbing?

    Forget pushing towards advancements in security, why not just tackle this problem like we do all the other, ya know, "real" ones. Where our citizen's lives are in actual mortal danger.

    What's next? Blowing up a European town for anti-American graffiti?

    Whatever happened to an eye for an eye? Though, I'm personally the type of individual that finds this "payback" part of human nature to be self-destructive, but someone pulls a hair from your head, and you turn around and shoot them in the face? Brute force is technology's retarded half brother, and shouldn't fight tech's battles.
