I think there are basicly two types of phones (some are user configurable) Ones that get time from the network only, and ones that keep there own clock.The nice thing about the network phones is the time is always accurate to the second and resets based on time zone when you power it up after a flight or when you cross a border. Every phone like this I have owned eventually looses track when out of range.The other type seem to have an internal clock and have to be changed after flights and such.My Kindle
Not just me personally. I have no doubt that the majority of the users on/. have never used SecondLife and probably couldn’t care less about this. I’m just echoing GGP.
I know it's easy to pick on Second Life but my wife use to play it obsessively so let me give you some real insight:
The game gives you a lot of power to import models, animations and textures, think of it as an in game "make your own Sims game", where you can set rules, scripts that execute on other people's models, etc. The game is flooded with woman, usually stay at home wives, these aren't necessarily your traditional "fat goth chicks".
I'm a hardcore gamer myself, mostly just Xbox 360 lately, so I w
If that's the case, it's been a sad day since at least 1984. These things teach us interesting things about numbers and are interesting in and of themselves. As a way of making math more visually beautiful they also serve to draw the interest of youth to a field ordinarily seen as dry and boring.

Ah, but you see in the '60s and '70s we began to make so many more things illegal. After all, the State had to have an excuse to exercise their power, and given the general recalcitrance of Americans, this meant making more and more things illegal with which to have a 'legitimate' excuse to control them.
Yeah, that's going to work well. Hey, maybe you can up your inmate numbers from 1% of all citizens to 2% or even 5%!
I think you should adopt the Judge Dredd model and get rid of all noncapital punishment. And never ever come to Europe.
I've seen supposed wiretap transcripts on news sites and such that I guess were released during the trial. Most of the time the criminals ARE using code words, it's just, you know, not real hard to figure out that your terror suspects aren't really opening a hair salon, and therefore probably aren't ordering 300 'bottles' of 'conditioner' that are 'guaranteed to go off'.
Ditto what Mage Powers said. There's zero information in TFA, and little more in PDF. FUD, for certain.If the talking chimps care to publish meaningful information, I'll be happy to read it.

After all, this isn't the Huffington Post.
If it was actually full they couldn't add new customers, new channels, or new services without laying their own cable each time, all of which they do all the time.

You're telling me that with over a hundred machines up there that they have a single point of failure for their domain architecture? And it's a laptop? Hey NASA, ever hear of high-availability?
Granted they probably don't use that many domain resources, but you'd think if they were going to use any specific kind of tech that they would make sure it was redundant. You'd think with how muc
"Piracy" essentially means armed robbery and murder on the high seas. The recent abuse of the term to refer to unauthorized duplication is idiotic. But of course, the more the media conglomerates and their toadies bellow "piracy" at the top of their lungs, the more a vapid and mostly uncritical public will eat it up, and eventually repeat it. I'm not justifying unauthorized duplication or redistribution; I'm just sick of the MP/RIAA's bull****. They are organizations that have engaged in highly question
From TFS: Steve Ballmer got a mention because of his negative remarks on the open source industry and its subsequent positive impact.
What's so hard to understand? When Ballmer started mouthing off about open source it was probably the first time lots of people heard of it. Just because he wasn't influential in the way he would have liked doesn't mean he didn't have an influence. They aren't pretending that he's deliberately helping.

You eaten that much, and still haven't eaten the best of all: human flesh!
Expecting anyone to bring a commercial FBR online before 2013 is ludicrous.
That would make you a programmer. A software developer is often involved in more than just programming.

At some point, most people would have had a "huh... what happened to that ticket" thing pop up in their brains, prompting action.

I would say yes, if you watched the whole thing.But if you quit watching after 10 minutes, then no.
I make my living trashing 40 year old systems. :)

Actually both the Greens and Libertarians had ~500 members up for election in state and local offices.

It would certainly make commutes easier.
