I have run Windows XP SP2 on my laptop for over a year. It is very stable. However, "properly configuring" Windows XP requires the installation of a personal software firewall, a NAT/SPI router, a realtime antivirus, and at least one spyware scanner. I feel dumb that I have to buy all these things in addition to my computer, Windows, and Office. I have run Linux and did not need any of these add-ons. However, the lack of drivers and applications (in that order) stops me from adopting Linux on my laptop, which is my primary computer. I realize it is anathema to say so, but perhaps Linux devs should take binary drivers as a stepping stone.
My girlfriend (thank you, thank you) had her phone number put onto Craigslist under their "Erotic Services" section by her ex-boyfriend. We had to close the account and eat the termination fee because a dozen creepy guys calling a day is too much. Perhaps the law targets such behavior because technically, her ex-boyfriend didn't prank call her at all. The creeps did.
Well, the laser you speak of was meant to have ultrapure water within it. It probably ran against the bulb, which is probably a ceramic that does not leach appreciable amounts of ions, unlike solder in a PC motherboard. In my experience, ultrapure water is tap water that undergoes carbon filtration, reverse osmosis, degassing, then is flowed through a resin bed to deionized it. The resin is the most expensive filter. Usage of the system is carefully metered to make sure that the resin does not get full.
Adaptive optics systems are necessarily ground-based. The actuators and the lenses required are too bulky and heavy to be lugged into orbit. The atmosphere absorbs much incoming radiation. (Thank god, or we'd all literally be toast.) Scientists interested in the ultraviolet have to use space-based telescopes. Hence, the Hubble replacement does not focus on the visible because AO can take care of that from Earth, since we can build arbitrarily large arrays.
Racism is alive and well, but it would be unprofitable for Walmart to indulge in discrimination on its public website. Bad publicity simply is not worth it. What happened was that a Walmart droid wanted to promote Martin Luther King by linking to those civil rights movies whenever there was a boxset or DVD special. Unfortunately, one would be suggested these movies for Planet of the Apes. Strangely enough, however, one would be suggested the civil rights movies for "Home Alone" as well, which makes no sense so agitators don't point this out.
Typically, the payments are kept by the patentee. However, if there are allegations of procurement of the patent through fraud upon the PTO then there can be a good cause to sue for restitution, or even an antitrust action under Walker Process
Google Base, Google Videos, Google + AOL! Oh no! Yahoo has to try to get into the media content production and distribution game before Google eats its lunch.
I forget the name for this, but basically SCOX is offering judge Kimball two different ways to give them 'relief' for Novell's supposed wrongdoing.
It's called arguing in the alternative. It is allowed by courts if there is a good-faith basis. However, it is discouraged for strategic reasons because having it both ways make you look like a slimy bastard in front of a jury or the judge.
The unofficial patch is cleanly removeable. I've verified this as you can get infected if you remove the patch and "run" a malicious WMF file.
Incidentally, the fact that you can run an image file, or any content file, shows someone at MS should get fired for this, even if he coded it a decade ago. = P
Well, if it's only domain name and chapter startup expenses which total $4,000 that you are concerned about, then I think they're doing pretty good job of accounting for their expenses. Wikipedia has to buy a lot of domain names. www.wikipedia.com, www.wikipedia.net, www.wikipedia.org, etc. all have to be registered. Not only that, but someone has to keep all of them registered for a long time.
Most motions are made to the court with notice to both sides. Non-moving party gets to respond. But in certain circumstances, such as when you do not know who the other side is yet, you can make a motion with the court without the other side present or aware, or ex parte. This can be unfair at times, because you can get a restraining order or the like to accompany your ex parte motion. Hence the attorney and the moving party has an added obligation to tell the truth and disclose things that may stop them from obtaining an order. Normally, a lawyer only has to argue his case. In ex parte situations, he has to make the judge aware of both sides of the case or it can be later challenged. I guess that is what's happening here.
How could you prove you DIDN'T instigate the run, and how could you prove its not your fault?
I would look to see whether you actually benefitted financially from the run. If you had an uptick in orders but also a lot of complaints about spam, then you should check that out and disclaim the spam. Heck, you should stop taking orders from whatever link the spam has. If you made money off of it, that's a good sign you helped or at least did not stop the spam invasion.
The federal government was going to get to use their Blackberries anyway, citing the case of Trojan v. Shat-R-Shield as precedent. Patent office reexamination took off recently, I guess in the past three or four years as a cheaper alternative to litigation. Not that it helps NTP or RIM at this point. Heh, heh.
They could have a motorized cart that soldiers can "drag" around by a tether. The cart would be motorized and follow the pulling on the tether. The cart can be really tough and have wheels on all ends so it can climb out of ditches. Stuff can be secured inside so it won't get thrown about by the shaking. What shaking? Well, if there's enemy fire, the soldier can run into a trench and then pull the sucker next to and hopefully not onto him.
So when you write the next killer app, the world at large gets to share it without paying you because "information wants to be free", right? The time you spent trying to design, code, and bug-check that app is unworthy of recoupment under your beliefs. So why would anyone bother to code or make music? For love? Communism tried that already. See how that turned out--into capitalism in China.
Antitrust law still applies when companies fix prices during a joint ventures. Warner and some other labels had a joint venture to make a Three Tenors album. They fixed prices and got busted. The FTC later said that all price-fixing with relation to a joint venture will get the per se illegality treatment, which means no excuses. The parties can only set the prices of the new products of their joint ventures, and only when it is necessary to the success of the venture. (Firms cannot dump all their assets to the joint venture and then fix prices, because that's against Section 7 of the Clayton Act regarding mergers tending to lessen competition.) American antitrust law applies to activities in other countries that significantly affect American commerce. While the government may not want to bring an action against American firms, that reticense sure does not apply to foreign firms.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm sorry but this was just too funny: "Toenail powered Apache webserver".
From TFA:
"[Newfangled mouse has four buttons]..so all four fingers have something to do."
All four fingers? Alrighty...
"from the product-mascot dept."
Slashdot has jumped the shark.

This is just like the "difference" between DVD-R and DVD+R. To the consumer, it means nothing because the new equipment works with both formats.
now we can make sure we kill everyone before moving along.
If you're an American soldier on the ground, that just makes sure there's no one who's going to shoot you in the back when you move on.

I kind of gathered that when the article mentioned the nitrogen ice on the planetary surface.

Pssht. Methinks only 4% of the computer-using public know they're using a hard drive.

Much of the US government tech market was unaffected by the dot.com draw down. Nobody gets rich but it's a living.
And the benefits are ridiculous.
