Case and point! And to further build on that flawed math, allow me to 'Bushify' it:
99.8% of the gamers do not care about DRM and the other 99.8% play cracked versions.
Thank you Mr. President.
I tried it, and uninstalled it. Seriously, there werent any mindblowing, incremental or differentiating, features in Chrome to make me scrap Firefox or even Explorer (yes I run both because of a wierd Cyrillic support idiosyncrasy). Still going to keep an eye on it, who knows maybe the coding community will rally around it and come up with plugins that will elevate its functionality. I admit I am a fan of many things Google.
Sorry, but what exactly is a value or point of such a huge amount of absolute speculation?! The weak cosmic censorship hypothesis holds, ummm was there any surprise that it held within our limited understanding of the phenomenas parameters in a computer enviroment built on the same assumptions, we made the result fit our hypothesis of the way things are. This is just a purely speculative mathematical spankfest with no real tangible result. Two black holes colliding head-on at nearly light-speed... WTF?!?! At nearly light speed?! Golly, was it in 3D?! Does anyone else see the absurdity of this pseudoscintific masturbation? Not to make light of this but it would have been more quantifiable and practical if the "two black holes colliding head-on" were in a porno movie at slightly above average body temperature with a Bowchikawowwow backbeat?
From RTFA the cause of the problem has not been identified yet, however the problem is prevented from being able to present itself going forward by maliciously writing/erasing non volatile memory. Since the problem was caught at alpha/beta stages the stable releases were unaffected.
BTW, My boss tried to RTFA over my shoulder and shot cheese out of his ears (he is the non techie type). Its threads like these that absolutely cement/.'s place as the worlds dominant UBER NERD site.
I can't wait *twitch* to grind Everquest levels all over again, but this time on a PSP!
"WTB SoW and a port to North Karana"
"Who KSed my Queen Kliknik?!"
"I am so powwah, Qeynos am teh suxx0r!"
"WTB Crushbone belts"
"TRAIN TO THE BB ZONELINE!"
zOMGZ *eye twitch*
Ummm holy non sequitur Batman! My post wasn't about citizens, aliens or planet earth - but I guess this is/. . Your "easy answer" completely misses my point and is flawed on many levels. Buying a stock in a company with overseas offices does absolutely nothing to avoid the tax consequences of my investment. Also just because a company has overseas offices it sure as hell doesn't make it a sound investment choice on that qualification alone. I defer to the other answers to my post as examples of what I was looking for - sound, rational answers. Thanks anyway.
Damn good precedent set. Although, the guy who patented the other fellas work and tried to charge him for it should have been clubbed like a baby seal or dunked in a vat of whale spunk.
The whole tax and governing apparatus is rotten to the core. Money gets wasted without adequate oversight or explanation where it goes. We, the people, are getting shafted and gamed by the people who are supposedly on our payroll. This evolutionary path leads to people learning how to game the people in charge. You can no longer say that "the house always wins"...
How do we, the citizens get in on this? Offshore banking isn't illegal, neither is having an offshore company. Where does one start researching this information? Considerations are lack of transparency, lowest fees, internet accessability, and no insane initial deposits like in Switzerland. Come on folks, dish!
Well my kids are pissed about losing the GBA slot, so they aren't planning on trading in their DSLites. Personally I like the 3mp cam. Having RTFA all the articles I could find on this one I am not sure what exact WiFi improvements are, I havent had problems setting up WiFi on the 4 units we own and the overwall WiFi performance has been adequate, but WPA support would be cool. Anyone know more about that part?
Hey I love giving out money as much as the next guy but isnt this just a little blatant? Why are we kicking down this $202 million dollar gift to the biggest communications and media labor union in the USA?! Seriously, RTFA and you will see this thing is of no real substance just another payola to whoever got these parasites elected.
Because after RTFAing I dont feel like I am getting my moneys worth at best, and feel more like I am getting more cataloged and invaded by FCC... For the $202 MILLION dollars they blow between 2008 and 2012 they will institute more bureacracy with zero oversigt and no concrete goals. Providers will have to submit higher detail reports on broadband use (9 digit zips vs 5 digit zips), so that means their overhead will go ip as well, great since we know who will pay for that as well. Bah, time to email Feinstein again and get another spiffin canned "Yeah I hear you loud and clear, but we know whats best for you" emails reply. Anyone else tired of hemmoraging money to the goverment to help them employ more bureaucrats?
First you relinquish control over your data, then you establish a dependency on your data-pimps, and while your data-pimps have your data they control its integrity, its privacy, oh and your cost structure. I maybe immature but this doesnt sound like a healthy relationship.
I am in disbelief over anyones the acceptance of the idea. Relinquishing control over your data to an outside source seems unfathomably retarded, no matter what kind of spin is put on it.

If you want to see the original pop-up free article on the census is here - http://www.isi.edu/ant/address/ and there is a pretty cool interactive map here http://www.isi.edu/ant/address/browse/index.html . Enjoy.

That a company co-funded by CIA is looking for higher granularity for their global database?!

Sorry, thats what you get from a mind polluted by LOLCATS.

Does this Glider program kill the Boars for you?
Don't mind me, I am just having a huge Bob & Doug McKenzie flashback... Too much Molsons, Strange Brew, eh! Canadian Scientists heh heh, damn.
They only decided to cut the crap that was not guaranteeing revenue. The crap that IS guaranteeing revenue is still on schedule.

Is it 2010 base 10, or 2010 base 8? 'Cause that still leaves a lot of wiggle room.
