Compromising your local router would provide an easy way to give you those extra seconds to flush your stash, but then again having somebody looking out of the window probably has the same effect.
Qos addresses most of those issues, The problem IMO is that most wireless technologies are easy to jam. WPA for example is easy as hell to jam, a felon with a laptop with a laptop and aircrack can just kick all local users (including the cops) off the router. OTOH as long as this is in addition to their standard communication methods i don't see this as a problem.
Stop spreading this shit, in the correct frame of reference newtonian mechanics is correct (unfortunately the frame of reference isn't much use as all objects are stationary (relative to each other))
Also E=mc^2 isn't derived from any thought experiment and is in fact wrong for any non-stationary object, E=mc^2 simply drops out as the first term in E when you expand the Lorentz transformation. E = mc^2 [ 1 + 1/2 (v/c)^2 + 3/8 (v/c)^4....] v is the objects relative velocity to you
I want to disagree, but having played assaultcube im not sure i can. I cant think of any way that doesnt sound like DRM, and hence flawed, to detect a user that has full access to the code and has modified it to cheat.
hashes & signing are useless as you can fake the response almost any test is useless as you can build a hacked version that will take a memory dumb of an unhacked version and switch the version after checks (not quite as practical but with an old game on modern hardware this could be doable with a couple of seconds lag)
So it would require a 2nd engine to run in the background and make sure the 1st engine is playing fair (something like vac) this would however be closed source, leaving players on any unsupported system in the same boat they are now!
Because bugs can be added/removed during the packaging process, so a bug report for, say ssh that was installed in from the Debian repo, would not necessarily apply to the upstream ssh.
Not really a slashvertisment, this IS big news for any mathmatics / physics student (probably comp sci too)
While ive found wxMaxima to be fairly useful and i use it at home, when im at uni mathmatica is simply much easier to use. Simple science software is an area where I feal that although the underlying software is probably available under the GPL (gnuplot, maxima, etc), because real geeks are happy to use it, not much work is put into producing a simple GUI.
Perhaps its a simple case of wrong tool for the job, much like its acceptable that "the gimp" doesn't make simple editing as easy as photoshop because its not what its meant to do? Is there a set of tools for me to solve equations with that comes in a nicely packaged GUI (while probably lacking the power of more advanced tools like maxima & matlab)
windows "a simple 'google firefox, go to firefox downloads page, click on the download link, run the download link, accept UAC, accept EULA, click next a few time" ubuntu "a simple 'apt-get update ; apt-get install -qy firefox'
ofc to anybody who knows what thier doing on gnetoo its just "emerge firefox-3.0.4" on ubuntu its "apt-get firefox" but on windows you still have to arse on
and can you predict when it will decrease? decreases are random fluctuations, you can see when they have happend but you cant see when they are going to happen.
If i have random inputs there is no 'blind' (probably the wrong word, but what i mean is without being able to see the cards) algorithm that can predictably make the data less random, without
Is it that hard to ask the russians or a private company to get your astronauts down?
What do the astronauts do anyway? I mean I'm all for space exploration, probes, etc, but do the astronauts do anything that cant be automated or done on earth?
They shouldn't be going after attempted murderers in other countries that have already done time for their crimes, just because they've already done time for their crimes?
erm they still break the law when they break into my car.
Do you have a problem with alcoholics that steal money for alcohol? or DUI and run over incocent bystanders? or get drunk and fight and stab people? woo bring back prohibition!!!!!

use a VPN much?

you mean like using a supper cannon, wasn't Saddam building one of those before gulf war 1?
>However, I can sort-of recommend buying the original Half-Life for PS2, because it has a platform-exclusive co-op mode.
You mean like sven-coop or did it have a story to accomodate the multiple players (IIRC sven just let multiple users play on the original levels)

darwine should get near native performance as opengl -> opengl is very well supported.

hey they all made millions, its only the taxpayers it didn't work for!
active democracy is worse because nobody gets anything done because they are too busy voting on everything!
yeah but democracy is the best of a bad bunch.
why? because some people are lazy and some people are greedy!

facepalm!
entropy does not decrease
never

i know bootup time is bad, but 3 days to boot? maybe he should have gone with xp
but they're saying "a few" its hardly quantitative either, how can you do maths on "a few"?
in poker the suit matters so, the new limit doesn't apply.
If its a different country every time, id guess 203.
Or as GP was saying:
They shouldn't be going after attempted murderers in other countries that have already done time for their crimes, just because they've already done time for their crimes?
Are you really that naive?
erm they still break the law when they break into my car.

yeah Amsterdam is such a hell hole!
replace Iran with UK, because of that violent pornography you watch!
