"Alice took an extra ten minutes on her lunch break"
Could you explain how having Illegal material that sexually exploits children, has nothing to do with your work productivity, and is a federal crime has anything to do with extended lunch breaks?
I know a few people who work for a computer store that upgrade and fix peoples computers.
I have been told stories about people having full kiddy porn themes on their windows machines, or gigabits of kiddy porn fully available and in view of the people working on the systems.
Their company policy is if any child porn is found on the machine, to hand over all information about the person and the machine to the police, and they take care of the rest.
You're a janitor and you find a bag of crack in a desk where you work. Or theirs a meth lab in the apartment building you manage.
Its illegal. It's that simple. These problems are not as simple as someone stealing office supplies. These are real life situations where someone could get hurt.
If that's not enough, then how about the bandwidth used by this person, or the storage used to hold them. Their both property of the collage, and the collage could have been held responsible for the photographs.
For a while Sega joined the few who were putting out arcade machines. Many people thought that arcade games were dieing out. But their coming back hard. I could see many new systems showing up, like the Merit Megatouch systems. Only with Microsofts name on them.
Now games on the Xbox, fine I can deal with that. But it would be strange to see Microsoft throwing their arcade machines around.
I own a company that places public internet machines around minnesota.
In one location their was this couple that would come in everyday. They would browse the web and sign up for everything and anything they could find that was free.
Finally one day I told them one day they won't recive anything that they ordered because they were all scams. Everything from cook books to free tshirts. They told me they didnt care because they just loved the idea of trying to win free stuff, or have mail sent to them to read.
Side note: I checked their email account that was disabled and it had 600megs of emails over 6 months.
leisure suit larry in the land of the loung lizards was one of the first amazing games I played. Point and click movement, type in commands, all-most EGA nudity. It was amazing for a 12 year old.
Dig in dumpsters until I find a monitor that somewhat works, and dosent have coffee grounds on it. Us this one until I spill beer on it. Repeat process.
What I could see happening is the record companys sueing the radio stations and forcing them to upgrade their (radio stations) equiptment. They will still come out ahead.
Wait, their all owned by Clear Channel. Who ownes them again?
Text messaging is great for many things. Messaging people is not one of them. We have a rather large network of public Internet terminals and payphones. Each machine sends logs every 2 hours saying how much money they have made, and if theirs a problem, such as a unexpected reboot, money jam, etc.
Its pretty useful, and everyone around me knows that my computers "are always talking to me"
How would this be any worse then the systems we have today. This would not hinder anyones privacy anymore then social security cards, birth certs, drivers license, credit cards, bank cards etc. If anything it would protect peoples privacy and property more then the current systems do.
Green cards scam's, credit card fraud, theft on many levels would be wiped out.

I think you may be on to something here.

This makes it on to slashdot, but bugs like this Netscape exploit didn't?
Haven't they been saying the came about COBAL and FORTRAN programmers for the past 5 years?
Now I will just need to wait 7 more years on top of the 2 years now for a new tech job!
Have your mom do them. Seriously, they can do everything!

Well suing people has always been a strong and profitable business model. Much better then there current one.....
That is a little over $10.00 per episode.
One problem that most wireless ISP's or wireless projects have is the ability to charge users, and authenticate them.
passym wireless routers has a great device that allows people to authenticate when they connect to your wireless network via their browser.
They do charge a fee per month per router, but so far it's worked great for me.
Looks slick, but I dont need something that looks nice, I need something that can take abuse and gives me the ablity to upgrade.

MOO2 is still a great time waster. Every few months I need to pull it out and pay it for a few hours.
