He has no birth Certificate : Born in a Field in Kent He has no Passport : Never been abroad He has no Driving Licence : uses the buses or walks He has no NI number : Works cash in hand He has no marriage certificate : never been married He has no utility bills : he has never owned a home or rented... He has no credit history : Never had a bank account, never owed money He has no signature : He cannot write (he did not go to school)
Turn up with some evidence that I really am me... like a fake ID, some utility bills I stole, a fake drivers licence, a copy of a birth certificate (not mine) etc....
ID is built on the premise that you can prove you are you.... but you can't!
The problem is that if they monitor *what* I am uploading then they are responsible for it
Downloading is NOT illegal, uploading is (this is why they always word it as "making available")
If they monitor traffic they cannot tell if I am uploading legally or illegally If they monitor types of traffic they cannot tell if I am uploading legally or illegally Only if the monitor the content can they tell if what I am uploading is legal or illegal at which point they become partly responsible for it...
No go to a peer reviewed history book and read up on the same people.... look familiar? yes they are biased as well....
As Henry Ford said "History is more or less bunk"
Mussolini was not a particularly nice person, but must have done some things people approved of or he would have not been in power.... the same goes for Che Guevara
History is not decided democratically it is decided by the winners, and by peoples bad memories...
So they dominate three premium martkets (and make lot of money doing so)
But the Premium markets are a very small percentage of the market as a whole... and they will never dominate them simply because they have no interest of making a cheap or even midrange product...
The box-shifters will always win, little companies like Dell
The iPhone has not conquered the market it is a minor player - in the Smartphone market it is different, but most people still have a conventional phone (and don't have a Smartphone option with their contract)
The biggest problem is that Smartphones (including the iPhone) are expensive even compared with decent conventional mobile phones....
Before Chip and PIN, if someone used your card the bank would try and blame you and usually fail (because you were assumed to be careful) now you use your PIN everywhere and it assumed it was your fault... a win for the banks then...
Not cool as in hijack something cool and do something that ties it to their latest thing...
Not useful as in only works in the next version of their system, if you have their modified version of Ruby and IIS and use Internet Explorer...
So this is another way to break all the other systems... and Silverlight was allegedly cross-platform... this cuts it down to.... windows only again...
The music industry in China is quite sensible, music which is broadcast and free to anyone to listen to, they cannot also charge for (unless you want to pay for the physical CD etc...)
We have this strange notion that music can be given away for free but is somehow also not public and can still be sold?
It's a bit like a book publisher letting anyone have a free copy of a book then complaining when people do not buy it
Yes the "Strong enough" gravitational field would be very large and more importantly very dense i.e. a black hole....
So theoretically something could be accelerated *to* c by falling into a black hole... but at that point it would have infinite mass...... so the black hole would have to have infinite mass to do it...
Sounds like a good way of stopping lazy, stupid, and pointless patches getting into the kernel...
It is the old principal of 'stupid' managers, anything someone is still trying to explain to you after 15 minutes is probably worth paying attention to...
If someone can actually be bothered to go through the process of submitting a patch and do it correctly then they the code they are submitting is much more likely to be useful....
So you ban.hk sites and so fail to visit sites for businesses in Hong Kong... Home of one of the busiest ports in the world and the Sixth largest stock exchange....
So if it falls up then General relativity is wrong (or at least has severe problems) and if this is because it has negative mass then something is very wrong with many theories not just GR...?
Slashdot Mirror
Intellisense - an incremental enhancement of Auto Completion, which has been around since at least the early 80's (Before Microsoft Existed!)
.... all their best ideas were invented by other people!
Intellisense itself (with reflection lookup) was based on ideas freely published in 1986 (by researchers NOT working for Microsoft)
Microsoft has never been shy of appropriating other peoples innovation
Because Opensource will only kill off the bad and mediocre commercial tools ... not the polished good quality useful ones ....
...
i.e. the ones people actually think are are worth paying for
So you are not Jim Lee from London ...
He has no birth Certificate : Born in a Field in Kent
He has no Passport : Never been abroad
He has no Driving Licence : uses the buses or walks
He has no NI number : Works cash in hand
He has no marriage certificate : never been married
He has no utility bills : he has never owned a home or rented...
He has no credit history : Never had a bank account, never owed money
He has no signature : He cannot write (he did not go to school)
He has no ID!
How do I get a RealID ....
... like a fake ID, some utility bills I stole, a fake drivers licence, a copy of a birth certificate (not mine) etc ....
.... but you can't!

I take your Beowulf cluster meme and raise you a RTFA
It is already a massively parallel computer cluster (as are the BlueGenes and the vast majority of the fastest computers)

They are organised, well funded, and have a definite goal in sight

The problem is that credit companies have to accept poor proof of ID because most people have nothing better
All your most basic "personal" details are probably widely known along with you credit card numbers, SSN etc...
Biometrics will not help - how do you prove you are you to get the Biometric info in the first place?
It all comes down to - how can you prove you are you to a stranger - the answer is, you can't!

This is the point about the difference between negative mass and how it reacts to a gravity field
....
What you describe is negative mass - which is not what we observe
This experiment is testing antimatters interaction with a gravity field
Yes the "Strong enough" gravitational field would be very large and more importantly very dense i.e. a black hole....
... but at that point it would have infinite mass ... ... so the black hole would have to have infinite mass to do it ...
....
So theoretically something could be accelerated *to* c by falling into a black hole
So no.... sorry

So yo are trying to say XP is bad but Vista is better but people are used to XP ...
....
No XP is bad, Vista is worse
Slower
More annoying
More resource hungry

Probably ... ..although several Linux gadget frameworks used QT or GTK and so theoretically would work on Windows ...
... and so probably works on most other *nix systems as well ....
Google Gadgets has the advantage that it can use either QT or GTK
My Windows desktop has Clock, Running Programs, Tooltray Icons ... and nothing else
No Desktop Icons
No 'Start' Button
Nothing!
My Linux desktop is the same!
Why would I want gadgets that either take up valuable screen space or hide beneath windows?
I can't vote (I am not an American Citizen, have never been to America ... ) but the result *will* effect me ... to whom do I complain!
Neither: I have already seen it several times - Cinema , Normal TV, DVD, thank you ... and do not want to pay to see it again .....
Thanks for the explanation ....
...?
So if it falls up then General relativity is wrong (or at least has severe problems) and if this is because it has negative mass then something is very wrong with many theories not just GR
No No it falls charmingly ....
