That works right up until it meets the second amendment.

What the hell? IE8 is using a gigabyte of RAM for only 9 tabs and chrome wasn't faring much better? I haven't tried either, but if that's the memory footprint, I won't be.
This is only true when you attempt to directly download from their site. Set automatic updates on and to "download, but notify me before installation". Bypasses the whole WGA system.
Comcast has a very strict "hands off" policy towards user equipment (unless you pay them hundreds of dollars, or perhaps less if you go for a direct bribe).
You bring up an interesting point. What does Comcast do when the 70 year old grandma calls because she's received a message that her service is being cut off for using too much bandwidth (when it was actually her neighbors piggybacking on her unsecured wireless router).
Not exactly the kind of press you want now, is it?
You do realize that all mandelbrot visualizations are dependent on certain user specified parameters (basically, how to "grade" how quickly a point converges or diverges)?
Setting the parameters at particular values can yield drastically different (or blank) pictures of the same data set.
You (and others in this thread) speak with too much presumption. Everyone experiences Salvia slightly differently in general, let alone when you take mindset, setting, dosage, concentration, etc. into consideration.
Salvia is a potent psychoactive, particularly at the higher extract levels. It should by all means be investigated by the curious, but they should prepare via research and contemplation first.
In general, if you want to get "high", just turn around and walk away. If you want to have a deep, possibly spiritual experience, by all means continue your journey.
I can see you're not a gamer. Check the recommended requirements of some recent titles and tell us that 2GB of RAM is fine for top-end gaming. Not to mention running other applications in the background is always nice, which bumps the requirements further.
If you have enough RAM, sure, that's not your bottleneck. But when you don't have enough, welcome to unplayability.
I was trying to point out the general hierarchy, but it looks like it came out as a direct path due to my poor choice of wording.
You are absolutely correct, and scene releases come out as pirate DVD's actually sold for money, on anonymous FTP sites, IRC channels, direct trading of files through AIM and the like, and even the now rare direct HTTP server.
Because the serious pirating networks are very much personal-friend invite-only. The only way to break a group like that, other than from the inside by a betrayal, is if they didn't use encryption.
The stream of information goes from crack group, FXP to scene release, ultra-private trackers (as above), private trackers (invite only, more lax on how they let users invite), semi-private (registration required), and public.
I'm not so sure there will be changes in policy. How much more precious is your life to you if you live 10 times as long? The current young, from roughly 16-25 are known for their risk-taking because the threat of sure death seems impossibly far away. Should we then expect the new "thrill-seeking" age to be 160-250?
Not enough people close to the young die of accidents to shock the youth into a realistic viewpoint of their mortality. Why should this change? Friendship is usually transitory, how many people have you kept close contact with for over 10 years? Does the death of your college roomate really affect you?
I think that the fear of death will be suspended further, rather than heightened in urgency. Most people simply do not consider accidental death to be a serious factor in their daily routine.
The government can make anything legal after the fact. Pardons are inherent in the executive branch, and while political backlash may happen, the actual pardons will stand and be legal.
Not me. Every time I get the urge to travel, I remind myself of the TSA. I'll wait until I can travel my own way with a minimal of idiotic regulations. Combined with stupidly high fares and the other hassles, it's just not worth it.

This month, 250 gigs isn't a hassle to anyone but the most extreme torrenters. Probably not next month, too. But next year? 5 years down the line?
Where is the incentive for them to up this ever more restrictive cap?

Assume an utterly alien audience. How exactly do you give them a pronunciation guide to any human language?

Of course, combine this with the hidden OS feature, and the police have plausible deniability too.

Considering the age of the game, perhaps toasters would be more appropriate.

Should already be encrypted. If they weren't, they were being pretty careless.

You mean mastery of office politics? Excuse me if I don't give you the same respect as people who can actually do things.
I too, would rather risk dying with no chance to defend myself than risk having to defend myself... wait, what?
Or he's just plain mentally imbalanced and will do whatever he wants regardless.
People do get suckered into those 2 year "IT" degrees though. Perhaps that's what he's referring to.
As for people with actual degrees and knowledge to back them up, a junior developer role is not far-fetched at all.
I think being able to say "fixed laptops after pigs stepped on them" on my resume would make it all worthwhile.
If a job is fulfilling all by itself, if would provide for basic needs such as food and lodging.
There are infinite possible combinations of legos, allowing for duplications of pieces.
