"Engouh Solar Energy (ESE) is a newly-discovered form of solar energy capable of lighting even the darkest parents' basement to the point where the average nerd can neither see his keyboard nor the inevitable typos he'll make on internet discussion boards."
So basically, if I want to find out the passwords on someone else's computer, I have to bring along a high capacity DVD's-worth of data as well? I might as well just pretend I'm their tech support and ask for the password.
Back in the day, getting Windows passwords was as easy as opening a program from a floppy. That's how I got an A in Spanish class when the teacher challenged us to guess what his screensaver password was (the prize was an A for the year - dumb teacher).
I can see it now... the President holds a conference praising the development of eco-friendly nukes that wipe out entire populations of men, women, and children, but that leave the surviving ecosystem safe from continued exposure. Red is the new Green!
"If anything, such mechanical results would imply that our own minds act simpler in some ways than we may think, and that consciousness doesn't necessarily have to be as inscrutable and special as we might want."
Philosophers like Daniel Dennett agree with this notion. Consciousness may simply be a more complex continually-running predictive model like that used by this robot.
The Windows Audio service depends on MMCSS, so if you try to disable the Multimedia Class Scheduler, you can't listen to any music at all. (I just tried this myself, that's how I know)
For the record, I just tested this bug on Vista Small Business and found the same result. If I load WMP, I can still utilize ~35% of the network, but as soon as I start a song, or have a song paused (or even stopped but still loaded) it drops down to 8-10% every time.

Somehow I don't think that too many lives are being put at risk if EZPhotoSales has a bug in its software. Now a seat buckle on a car, that's a different story...
In the dental imaging practice, the large pano devices (that scan around your entire head) go for $100k, while small sensors (of which a single office would have more than one) cost about $10,000 and regularly need replaced. This is a decent price.

Is it also immoral to link directly to a printer-friendly version of a c|net article that spans 20 pages consisting mostly of erratic ad insanity?
Maybe that's why they've made the "printer friendly" link impossible to find.
"Looked at your /. username lately?"
The i is not missing, it is simply invisible, out of reverence for Her Holy Horn (H^3).
Either that, or the full username was already taken and this looked the most like that.
From Wikipedia:
"Engouh Solar Energy (ESE) is a newly-discovered form of solar energy capable of lighting even the darkest parents' basement to the point where the average nerd can neither see his keyboard nor the inevitable typos he'll make on internet discussion boards."
Behold!, the article is slightly more reader-friendly. Still not worth reading, though...
"Amazing! That's the same password I have on my luggage!"
Me too! My password is *blank* since I use a key and lock on my luggage.

"Many people observe stars using: A) a telescope B) a microscope C) an x-ray tube D) a synthesiser"
I wonder how many 16-year-olds answer this question correctly and think, "Wow! I could be an astronomer!"
Next thing you know, they'll be spotting green gelatinous blobs suntanning nude on the liquid-metal beaches of Upsilon Andromedae b's fourth moon.
I'm sorry, but the summary only explains the acronym twice, when I require a minimum of 3 times before I can be certain of its meaning.

I'd have taken a dump on his face and told him it was a mud mask that he needs to rub into his skin.
But that's just me....
Light is light, no matter the frequency. I think when you say "light", you're trying to refer to light in the visible part of the spectrum.
The summary does however call photons "energetic packets of light" when I think they're trying to say "packets of energy".
"There is no reason why you can't have fun while being useful, it's just a matter of finding what you enjoy and where its needed."
The fact is that there are certain jobs that nobody enjoys, but that require humans to do the work.
Like being president, for example.
My statement was made from the point of view of a company. I thought that was obvious.
I thought wrong.

A bug only exists if the public knows about it.
Now try viewing a RANGE of IP addresses, as I originally stated.
Mediawiki has already added the capability to look at the Special:Contributions for an IP range. I'm not sure if it's been enabled yet on EN.

Dr. Beckett... is that you?!
Does it also work against editors who relentlessly post the same stories over and over again?
They default to insecure because if everyone was using their secure server, it would implode. People shouldn't need their hands held.
