Maybe in the future the other DEA will be the Data Enforcement Administration and BURN data centers to the ground which commit, or allow people to commit DATA-CRIME.
Oh, remember the days when the DEA used to put out fires.
The comments are great too.
M. Anderson says:
Don't buy these cables. Gold and silver are not good enough. If you're a serious audophile, superconducting cuprate-perovskite ceramic materials cooled to 60 kelvin is what your after.
My MP3 collection never sounded better.

Fortunately, if the website is large enough and has enough visitors then garbage can be easily rooted out.
Look at craigslist for example, FREE everything except job listings in a couple of cities. Yet, the majority of advertisements posted in the more serious sections (Free Stuff, Automobiles Ect., NOT man looking for woman) are not noise or junk.
All of this is done due to the self moderation buttons at the top of every ad, and the tens of millions of users who hit these buttons. Slashdot itself functions in much the same way, only you must be registered to moderate.
It is a myth that just because something is free, it's not as good as it's costly competitor.
It's coming up on two years since the slashdot article announcing that Ebay bans Google checkout payments.
I'd be pissed too if Ebay pretty much implied that shitty little companies like propay.com can handle high dollar business transactions better.
Of course the lack of features or policies is probably not the reason at at all. Paypal is probably just scared of having it's market share shoot straight through the floor.
" Mr. Monseau (Johnson & Johnson spokesperson) added, "The company does remain committed to the longstanding mission of the Red Cross to provide relief services." "
It's pretty cold for a company to claim it supports T.R.C.'s humanitarian cause, while suing them.
If there was a way you could send a signal to your computer after it's been stolen and connected to the internet:
You could signal your computer to use it's built in web cam to take pictures of what's happening and transmit them back to the server or store it on some sort of internal flash memory which only engages when the computer has been alerted it is stolen.
It may have some of the same problems of other services in this discussion but at least you would have some physical evidence of the crook who is sitting in front of your laptop.
If there's no written contract, then there's probably some law (`work for hire') that covers the situation, but I'm not so sure about that.
When you buy photographic portraits from professional photographers you get prints of them. If you want more copies you must buy them from the photographer. If you copy them and try to print them you are violating copyright law.
As far as I know most photography of this sort is done without contract, so I'd assume the creator of a piece of work, not under contract, still owns the rights to what he created.
I'm not claiming definitive knowledge of this subject, merely an observation.
Why would somebody pay $100 more for a Microsoft operating system then dump it for Linux? That doesn't make too much sense to me, I'd go with the cheaper Linux-equipped laptop and then load whatever build I'd like to use.
I don't think "pre-locked" home routers are a bad idea at all, and it doesn't seem very hard to implement. SBC's 2wire routers come with WAP automatically enabled, and the key is on a label on the bottom of the router.

Forever.

No more worrying about Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 turned real.
Take that Captain Beaty!

Sounds like this.
I'm more afraid of widespread monitoring than terrorism. Once you start chipping away at the edges of privacy it's hard to get back.

A letterhead cut and pasted at the top of a page will add plenty of official-ness for some.

You're telling me I just put ABBY-NORMAL CODE IN A GIANT SET OF 18 2x QUAD-CORE SERVERS!
Have you not read the "Slashdot Order Act?"
Please discontinue committing thread-crime.
My pretty new Canon 450D goes a step farther:
When you hit the "set" button it flips the mirror up and powers up the sensor for use as a 'point and shoot' camera.
Unfortunately, it removes the auto-focus feature as it uses the mirror and prism for focusing.
Kafkaesque indeed. Ever read "The Trial"?

....but the Chinese speaking edition.
I consider selectively choosing what people can know about the past controlling the past, and we all know what that means...
He who controls the past controls the present.
He who controls the present controls the future.
Not a big surprise, I'm sure most of us can think of at least one person who's been scammed online.
I have a friend who tried to buy an Xbox 360 for 400+ dollars on Ebay and got scammed when the lady asked him to use a payment site other than paypal.

No. He's correct: My Anti-virus found this upon loading: VBS:Malware-gen

I think that one fits too.
They should have picked a "dolphin free" method for filing civil suits.
