oddly enough, the email account linked to my slashdot login was created just for the "easily compromised but I need a valid email to get a login" situations. Even after 5 years in use to create logins it's the only one NOT heavily spammed (other than by some Russian spammers in a font I can't even read, talk about easy spam detection).
Hmm, I met my wife in a 3D game, does that count?

I run Avast Pro on all of our machines, I'll look into the server set-up. I love Avast's ease of licensing in bulk; I gave up on Symantec after repeated loss of licenses that were never replaced after reinstalls.
Yes, right now the methane from farm sources are a huge issue, just most people don't realize that. I shouldn't try to be funny on Friday afternoon before the first beer.
Nope, no fertile plains, just Sahara style desert. There's enough methane stored in the permafrost of Canada and Russia to make our bit of car exhaust look like cow farts.
Odd that you mention that, I was reading this and thinking "Eichmann". He was proud too of how well everything he'd thought up worked, out there, somewhere. He just couldn't get away with it since they didn't care about the "ex post facto" stuff.
And don't get anywhere near your car, gasoline can contain up to 1% benzene:).
Actually, the idea of being able to reduce benzoic acid to benzene is nonsense, you get benzalcohol that route. You'd need to be able to decarboxylate.
From the summary, it sounds like the company would try to acquire Microsoft and IBM next. Only later it becomes clear that going after refers to their product offerings. Good luck with that, not that they need it with their obviously superior quality.
Another way to read that article is
"we are using the standard carbon fiber and resin to make a fly fishing rod. As a marketing gimmick, we dry carrots, grind them up into fine cellulose fibers, and use those as filler".
This is not full manufacturing cost, this is outside material only. They probably barely break even (considering that there is no multi-level distribution chain adding more mark-ups in every step.
Online storage of legal documents sounds like an invitation for trouble. A lot of lawyer paperwork would probably be protected from searches as privileged, but whatever happens to it on some off-site storage facility subject to subpoenas would be questionable.
Actually, a set of rotating knife blades seems to be the optimal solution. I think it's called chum. So after a while future visitors would wonder about the large number of sharks looking gleefully at them while they board.
looks pretty much like my experience, took me years to get the value of compliance into the business people. What is much harder so is keeping the employees from clamoring for all the "free" software from the internet. They just don't want to see that just because the download is free you cannot ignore the license terms (the usual "free for non-commercial use"). But after making the first guy pay for his own license when he just couldn't live without a program he liked (and for which a paid equivalent was installed) people are reevaluating how much they realllllly need their individual programs.
Rotting content is everywhere. Run through any of the low level WoW zones, and it's not different from visiting Kunark. No one there but a few twinks grinding out progression. WoW went so far as letting the new DK class start at level 58 in full blue gear (after a 2-4 h intro)as to not repopulate those areas.
The only way you could get around that is semi-instanced content, where the mob is automatically adjusted in level to your toon. What in turn would eliminate farming in lower level zones for easy tradeskill items etc. You lose either way.
If Blizzard is really creating it's own competition with Diablo 3, how long until they will follow SOE's lead and offer an "all games pass" that allows you to play all their online offerings? Buy Diablo Online for %10 a month, or just add $2 to your WoW subscription for both.
And you could go completely air pollution free by using exclusively nuclear power too...
My point was mainly, TODAY using a plug in hybrid adds to air pollution by using mainly unoptimized coal produced electricity, compared to a very clean diesel, which is the alternative discussed.
I'm sure the plug in hybrid powered by that coal burning power plant contributes to clean air. Well, at least as long as the coal burning power plant is not anywhere near me.
and you ignore the environmental cost of shipping the 365 million papers across the country. My (based on zero actual info) guess would be that the fuel consumed for making one kindle doesn't deliver a year's supply of the NYT to a subscriber outside NYC.
I got one from a Lt. Col, USArmy, who snatched $25 Million from Saddam. Now that's a trustworthy source, so I couldn't understand why he needed my help as most of it was in $100 bills. Maybe he needed me to carry the suitcases?
They already refused two offers - first, for only $500, they could have stopped the article, and second, for only $1000 they could have kept it of/.
Now, for only $2500..

Did you just use "moral conviction" "RIAA" and "lawyer" in the same sentence? I go catch some more flying pigs.

Earthquakes can get stuck momentarily - what happened on the date he predicted. It let lose the next week; the stored energy had to go somewhere.
yes, but will Vista still access the HD for a swap file?

it was so slow because he was seeding a folder "good stuff, save for next year's album" to a thousand apt fans at the same time.
