If I had cancer, I would care more about dying than fertility. Are you saying that if I took this drug, it would mean I wouldn't need to have a vasectomy? Sounds like a win-win to me.
Criminal prosecutors in the United States also have discretion as to whether to press charges at all, and if they decide to do so, which ones to press.
Liposuction, even high-volume liposuction, is no panacea for clinical obesity. High-volume lipo can remove 15-20 pounds of fat, tops. I don't have any personal experience, but bariatric surgery is probably a better option as an obesity "cure" than liposuction.
It's not like we're talking about child molestation here. We're talking about selling stolen property of questionable value. I doubt lynch mobs will be forthcoming, especially when the injured party is one of the most despised corporations in the world.
Exactly. This looks really great for the attorneys right now, because they're practically guaranteed the $31m (wonder how many of them are billing close to 24 hours per day?), but once they realize they've hit the cap, they will pretty much stop trying, because at that point they're working for free.
If someone plays Russian Roulette by "user consent," it's still a felony if they happen to get killed. The "consenting user" is a "consenting victim" in the instant case, and in the case of spyware installation.
The school I attend is using exactly this method instead of something more convenient for regular users, like MAC registration. I know there are reasons for doing this, but it's pretty ridiculous that you have to re-authenticate if you've gone out of the network's radar for three minutes. "They" say this is for security purposes, but your security on an unencrypted wireless network is pretty much nonexistent...
So I did what any BOFH would do. I e-mailed Acacia and informed them that there was a certain university that they should add to their collections list.
Also, you risk engaging the steering wheel anti-theft lock, effectively making it impossible to steer. I can't fathom why this went on for half an hour, the driver could have put the car in neutral or "applied the brakes as hard as he could" earlier in the game. The car's engine will not overpower the brakes if they are functioning properly.
It sounds as if you may have used the DVD player for an extended period of time. Heat buildup may be the cause of the failure. That's no excuse, but it's the best explanation I can come up with. I know this was a huge problem with my first DVD player (Panasonic DVD-A110), but I never experienced it probably due to infrequent use.
Laws which require jail time for spammers would certainly get attention. If they're not in the U.S., have them extradited for their crimes against humanity. Make them hand write letters of apology to every person they have spammed. Cruel and unusual punishment ought to be allowed if the crime in question was cruel and unusual.
Yes, they are. If one needs to share files or printers, one would disable the local firewall and rely on the other firewall in the router. Microsoft needs to add an option to the local firewall which will allow file and printer sharing, but block all other ports.
And we weren't hit because they had the current patches and virus defs, plus they were behind a firewall. For the average Windows user, mandatory updates (OS and antivirus), and firewall defaulted to enabled should be the norm, so long as "power users" can disable this option. And services that are useless for the average user (such as DCOM) should be disabled. Those who want it can enable it, it's not that difficult!
It's interesting to note that most of these "kid killers" come from middle-class families. These in particular admitted that they were bored. Does the boredom and quiet drudgery of suburbia--in which there is nothing to do and children are seldom exposed to the effects of random violence--help breed this thrill seeking behavior?
It doesn't matter how much attention the parents paid to their kids, the problem is that parents in general exert very little control over their kids. The end result is that the kids end up with the same "I'll do whatever the hell I want" entitlement attitude as the parents.
Cringely mentions "John Walker's essay 'The Last Days of Autodesk.'" This sounds like a good read, but Google wouldn't cough it up. Anyone know where to find this essay?
There should be an icon with a green arrow with all the others in the tray. If you click on it, select the option that says "safely remove hardware." It will then display a bubble which states it's safe to remove your hardware.
I discovered cookies and cached files from porn sites that her husband had been surfing. She was devistated. She felt like she wasn't good enough, that her husband didn't love her for who she is.
Not meaning to flame, but why did you tell her about this? What you wrote implies that she didn't feel this way before she knew her husband was surfing porn sites. If you saw it was a problem or impediment to their relationship, I think it would have been less traumatic to their relationship if you approached the husband instead and told him that his wife was feeling forgotten about, taking the conversation wherever it goes from there.
Also, sorry for the user ID, purely a coincidence I assure you. Actually, the reason I posted was that I was in a similar situation regarding a hard drive recovery not too long ago. Although the circumstances were somewhat different, in the end we decided to clue the porn king into the fact that he had been busted, without creating any issues that could cause trouble.
The Register posted that on 01/08/2000... So, one would be left to believe that if Microsoft was having any luck migrating, the percentages would be higher than 5-10 by now.
Actually, it's not illegal to "smuggle" a higher water consumption toilet from Canada. It is illegal to sell it, and possibly to install it. If you bring some toilets from Canada for yourself and your friends and install them yourselves, I assume it's a pretty safe hack for your home unless the toilet police pay you a visit.
Intel has to one-up AMD to feed its ego and deliver what the market wants (by Intel's definition, "deliver" equals "announce"). If the market really demanded it, they would find a way to actually produce the chips they announce en masse (AMD can already do this). Why isn't there an antitrust suit against Intel yet?

...has requested an injunction that could prevent Friday's launch of the Tiger OS.
Not bloody likely, unless they also obtain an injunction against FedEx (preorders have already been shipped).

I quite like the little keyboard, um, nubbins...
The technical term is "keyboard clit."
Hey, I resemble that remark!

The things that actually trash the internet are: script kiddies, virus writers, spammers, and evil countries.
You forgot "AOL users," unless AOL is an evil country.
