That is true. But there is a huge difference between (ab)using your power to shoot at the Pirate Bay, and abusing your power and hit a competing political party in the process. It could (and should) lead to a major backlash. This chapter of the story will be worth reading..
Except this one comes with a strange headline and a bad summary. Nowhere in the summary is mentioned what Microsoft uses those pictures of a sweatshop for.~
Invariably someone always pops into a discussion like this and brings up some analogy with television advertising, radio, or somesuch. It is not in any way the same; advertisers in those mediums are paying for potential to reach audiences, and not for results. They have complex models which tell them if X number are watching, Y will likely see the ad (and it even varies by ad position, show type, etc!). But they really have no true idea who sees what ad, and that's why it's a medium based on potential and not provable results. On the Internet everything is 100% trackable and is billed and sold as such. Comparing a website to TiVo is comparing apples to asparagus.
Could you make those two flywheels work independently of each other, and then link them to the steering somehow? That way, if you want to break and steer left, only the flywheel spinning clockwise would accelerate, thereby helping the car in the turn. Or would it be more trouble than it's worth?
Well, you could design the charging system as a plate where you place your equipment, and have a simple weight-activated contact underneath the plate. That way you'd save on some of that standby-power they are all so worried about. And maybe this new system would actually end up having a lower TCO than normal wall-warts during normal use.
Google knows what you are looking for, but Facebook knows what is happening in your life. Both things are a good angle for targeting advertising. Facebook just needs to brush off their algorithm and offer something like adsense, and then they're in the ad-game
If ballot secrecy is optional, what's to stop your boss from insisting that you opt out of secrecy and vote his/her way?
What exactly stops him/her from requiring that you snap a picture of your ballot with your phone? And what stops you from documenting the voting fraud with a voice recording?

The key word is "take". Source code is a subset of the concept of information. You cannot take information.
... and a potential loss of tax dollars.
Maybe we could use this drive to make the world better
A few players have something a bit like this: Album shuffle. Where it plays one album from start to finish, then shuffles on to a new random album.
The only places I've seen that, though, is in Foobar (win) and Rockbox (for iPod 5.5 and down, and a few other portable players)
Are you sure?
I was under the impression that the EC proposed new laws, and the EP then voted to (or against) putting them into action.

Give flattrs the option and reminder to review their monthly contributions, and maybe use a crowd-sourced system to weed out hijackers.
That way you only had to arm the big encryption-guns once a month, and users could flattr with a single click.
How about clicking 2 times on the sites you like the most?

Easy solution: invert the axis. I.e. Pull back to increase power, forward to slow down/brake?
Do a barrel roll!
I was looking for the same thing, and the closest I found was on wikipedia:
Thus entropy as energy Q in relation to absolute temperature T is expressed as S = Q/T
So I guess the unit would be J/K. :)
And no, i'm not kidding
Yeah, but it's not in the appstore. It's duplicating built-in functionality.
People buy it..
Nah, this is more like it

The worth to advertisers is still greater for Hulu than for Fox. Value is a lot of things to a lot of people.
Hello, I'm a mac commercial who likes to criticize the competition...
What if you know the way, and your kids want to watch TV while you're driving?
Wouldn't this also affect file uploading? I'm not sure, but I think those are sent as part of the HTTP header.
GChat belongs on that list, too. I haven't tried it myself, and I can't tell if it's only supported in GMail.
