We require MACs to register. We actually have you write them on a peice of paper and then sign it so we have a physical paper trail. From there, we add the MAC to the table of permitted MACs allowed to cross over our transparent cisco router that site between the dorms and the internet gateway and DHCP server. So you cant get to the net even by assigning yourself an IP. However, there are students who will run a SOCKS server for others which is completely agaisnt our polocy so then we can shut them down:)
I can certainly appreciate the gadgets Sony comes out with. Not only do they have a "cool" factor, but they are useful as well. I also can understand why their stuff is pricey. However, this does not change the fact that I can not afford any of their products I would like. I would like to get their picture book and dual boot windows xp and debian on it. I'm one that likes compact with long battery life. It doesnt need to be a powerhouse computer. The $1700 pricetag is way too much. I can only wait to see what these new PDAs price at.
With the court's decision, the RIAA didn't just defeat Verizon, the Internet service provider that the RIAA sued. It damaged the viability of recording artists who don't conform to the mainstream musical tastes of the moment
So the RIAA may be riuning a legit business and income model for that artist. I say sue. Althought they might be downloading legit music it may alienate or parranoi some people who beleive downloading any music is illegal.
Just to append, it may not be Xupiter itself but one of their affiliates that are a tad mor sneaky about getting it in. Like hiring a hit man to do your dirty work...
I did get this toolbar without clicking yes to anything. I wasn't on xupiter's website. I was browsing and after i was done i closed explorer. When i opened it back up late there was the tool bar. I still dont know where i got it. It took me a while to figure out who it belonged to and how to rid myself of it. I flamed away afterwards.
So since you purchase CD-Rs with the extra tax, your purchase also implies you have the right to burn music to them? If the RIAA taxes ISP for allowing filetrading then it is implied that I have bought that music and I now "own" or at least have "leased" it. Such as in the way that the US government taxes me which implies that I have the right to "lease" the use of the roads even though they are owned by the government.
Maybe I should be able to redeem my CD-R receipts at a music store for music purchses if I dont use them for musical purposes right?
Researchers have already bombarded commercial jets with all types of RF of many frequencies and varying power and found no flight threatening effects. This is due to heavely sheilded cables. The electronic device usage fear stems from cellular phone companies advising airlines not to use the phones in flight as they would have difficulting tracking the signal and the signal would reach many towers simultaneously. For the most part, RF is a non-issue. But still comply to keep the paranoid at bay.
Private aircraft on the other hand is more effected by RF than their commercial counter parts. Cell phones and ham radios have been known to crash private aircraft.
A recent story. A local car stereo business installed a TV and sound system in a private aircraft. The FAA was on that like stink on a hog. The equipment was not certified and threw out quite a mess of RF. Not to mention non of the cables were sheilded. Both the pilot and the company who installed the equipment were fined.
I recently received the device that creates the high voltage needed to strobe the lights on an aircraft along with its timer circuit. The device oscilated 24v at high frequency through a transformer and was rectified into two capacitors at 600v. this was creating noise in the radio and the part was promptly removed.
My father is a mechanic and supervisor for a private aircraft repair business. Thats how I get my info on the personal airecraft. I saw the commercial aircraft RF bombardement on Disconvery i beleive.
See archos for devices that record raido directly into mp3. They have a hard drive and a smart media device that does that i beleive. Plus they keep the last 30 seconds of audio in memory in case the song you want has already started you can still get the begining.
I think i recall how US Navy technology found the wrecked of the Titanic. Despite that US funds were used to find the wreckage a French company brought up a small peice of it and therefore claimed rights to salvage. This left many people angry, especially relatives of passengers on that wreck who want their loved ones remains to be left alone. This bears similarity to this case here as responsible salvage companies need to be selected and given scrict guidelines on recovery procedure on a busy waterway.

I don't see many car manufacters, car enthusiats, car clubs, or racers, feeling very sorry when a car is intentionally used to kill someone. Lets start taking cars away from people and see what hell it raises. Just like police chase videos people start going nuts when they get pulled over for a ticket because they don't want their cars taken away.
Wait, this is slashdot! Are we raising hell because software and digital rights are being taken away? How about fair use? Being taken away? Yes, we are raising a stink about it just as the gun owning or any other community would do!
>Great! Two gun wielding psychopaths are behind bars. Exactly why are you against that?
No it didnt work conclusively. There was no black or white or much of a gray image that could cast substantial doubt. i would be for it if it did work. as stated, most guns used in crime are not registered and it is just wasting money and making it harder for law abiding citizens.
And since the gun prints aren't accurate it will be useless and cost LOTS of money that will either be taken from taxes or gun prices. I live in Maryland where they ballistically fingerprint handguns. Despite the BILLIONS of dollars spent funding this it has ben used with only marginal success TWICE!
Do you know what the meaning of ASSULT RIFLE means? it depends on a number of factors. One of which is barrel length. They are not illegal to own (unless you are a felon, such as this case). Machine guns and silencers are not illegal to own either. All these things may require a liscense. But for all intensive purposes, assult rifles aren't much different than regular rifles.
My cousin had a mouse living in his pc. he left one of the slot plates (the things that go over unused pci slots) and the mouse went through that. packed his pc full of dogfood. it pissed and corroded the metal. The reason he asked me to look at it was the mouse chewed the ide cable.
He mentioned trash talking. Does this mean the games with the headset can't be rated E? Perhaps MS could design a parental lockout for the headset to keep the games rated E. Or even include some of ther voice recognition software to strips out the nasties.
What happens if the power goes out? Does it start all over again? Maybe he remembered a UPS? Or, wouldn;t it be cool if he built it with the fastest CPU, Video card, and hard drive avalible and when it gets crushed compare it to the most current and fastest components as to show the evolution of computers.
I seem to have read an article a while back that suggested the north and south pole change positions every so many hundred years. This theory was created after scientists detected alternating magnetic signitures of the sea bed. Could this be one of those switches happening?
