I expect to see something similar.. a copyright string in the PC BIOS. Were Dell, Gateway, whatever to write this string in their BIOS, Apple would have no end to the possible lawsuits it would open up.
AH, but what if the manufacturers incorporated a user-customizable string in the BIOS much like the "asset tag" settings we have now?
So why not send some radio traffic which would obviously not be of natural origins. Surely 30ish years isn't that long to wait for a reply? (assuming the place has lifeforms which developed radio...)
Nah, but Mormons believe that Jee-zuuus visited their cult's founder in the 1800s. Which, suprisingly, is just as likely as the earth being 6000 years old.
If by "mature" you mean how much you like being told what to do and how to dress by a bunch of mindless robots, then I wholeheartedly agree.
That applies to any peer group. The Armani suit crowd or the sk8r crowd. It's fitting into a group and it's still being conformist. The "I have 9 tatoos and 50 piercing" guys are conforming, they just don't know it (and I'm not being biased against piercers I have 3 holes in my left ear, 2 in the right and 1 in my navel but haven't had anything in the ears in years.)
This is precisely what goes through my mind every time I see another guy in a suit chatting away on his cell phone, walking through the city seeing nothing.
Heh, too damn true. "Look at me, I am important..."
Does anyone have information on who follow this standard and who doesn't?
Most crawlers will obey. Spambot email harvesters will usually not. Generate a huge page of crap with loads of fake email addresses and put that in your robots.txt as uncrawlable and watch the spammers grab it.
Your example is slightly flawed. When I was in school putting "314/100" would be an incorrect answer. You'd want to work to the lowest common denominator so 157/50 is more like it. (that's from my head, if anyone can crunch it lower feel free:))
An Xbox with modchip and Xbox Media Center (based on mplayer if memory serves) It's played everything I've thrown at it and can take VLC streams or files on a server.

Nice, but it's an urban legend.
He also dropped acid in his younger days. That a good thing too??

You can get progressive scan HDTV in North America, no?
You also got at least one new person in your fan list with that post

Yeah, and it's a local call too.
So if they only go after uploaders of software and they set the value at a buck what happens if all the uploaders are in Indonesia

f you're into the creepiness of the games, give 3 a shot. It has the scariest level of any game I've ever played.
Ah, you must mean Shalebridge Cradle.
Thief 2X was released a while ago. I was playing it on holidays last week.
Hey Taco, better change the Apple section's "G5" logo to the Intel logo.
If you RTFA you'd see they were compiling an Intel version for 5 years now.
Does this mean I get to wear a cool fedora and carry my distro CDs in a violin case?
If your stick-on Vulcan ears don't interfere with the hat and if there's ample room in the violin case for your fake lightsaber... why not?
Too bad usenet is dieing and forums are taking over. Thats just sad.
It's a shame.

Don't be too harsh on him. He probably just read some dated Chomsky material in his dorm room.
And those people that are determined to drive after "a few" will find a way to do so.
The way I pour/buy wine, one bottle gives you three glasses (250ml/glass).
May I come over for dinner?

A technical solution to a behavioural problem... yeah, those always work.
OpenBSD makes use of the hardware PRNGs on various hardware cards (and are cheap) and gets entropy from a number of sources.
