What can printed magazines offer? Any kind of tangible, material bonus would likely be rather expensive, and there's just no way for magazines to compete with internet sites for content. Granted, there are some (myself included) who prefer reading a magazine for the whole "experience", but there's really no denying that if you want more current information you'll check online. I liked EGM because some of the information was interesting, some was funny (big fan of Hsu & Chan and Rest of the Crap), and ev
Re-reading the gp, and he's probably implying he had to log into some account management web tool. Which would provide the access control. Never mind...
Aha! I see. Thanx. Presumably, it will be designed so that the blood sample can't come into contact with the phone. At least, I hope so. If not, your concerns would certainly be justified.
But you've got to remember, if you're seeing the economic slump from inside the US, you're seeing the worst of it by far.Canada is sluggish, certainly, but not at all in the virtual free fall that the US seems to be getting. Parts of Europe are the same. The only two countries that really seem to be getting hit hard are the US and UK, although China's taking a bit of a beating, too.Let's see...all the surveillance states are getting the worst of the economic fallout. Wonder if that means anything?
Even if there are some legal repercussion, pay an inmate who's already in prison for life or a homeless person to send out a few dozen accusation letters. What are they going to do to the inmate, throw him in jail for even longer than life? As for the homeless person, depending on his situation, spending a short time in jail might be an improvement.
There's a huge difference between criticism and ridicule. To be frank, most of us went through that kind of stuff growing up. Very few of us turned out anti-social.
8*2^40/(5*365.24*86400) ~= 55747.8 bits/sec avgHey man, 56k modems were never that bad! (pedantic: note the limitation to something like 52kb in the US)
Looks like the article has just been demoted to "Games". Seriously though, this is just the most recent in a long line of emulator ports to the Wii. The chaps banging Linux onto the Wii are doing a lot more interesting work.
Compare this to the tests available for BRCA, the so called Breast Cancer genes. Finding you have the gene can be devastating, but knowing well in advance of developing cancer allows many more options to be considered.
One thing to keep in mind... I think any type of genetic testing or screening should be done anonymously. If you test positively for being at risk for any disease, and that information is entered into a computer, there is a risk that information can be used against you later. Insurance companies and employers would love nothing more than to discriminate against people who have POTENTIAL problems. Even worse, a genetic fingerprint can make its way into some security database without your knowledge or con
Your comment implies that there is no merit to demonstrating intolerance to bad ideas. That's a very popular conception, and I think that, as a liberal policy, it's been utterly disastrous. Now, clearly, it can be effective in a discussion or argument to assume that the other person is capable of meaningfully participating in that discussion or argument, but that's not the same as tolerating bad ideas. Cultural pressure is one of the great factors in meme progression and suppression, and it needs to be used
Bull. If you think SQL Server, Exchange and Sharepoint aren't huge for them, you're nuts, and they're positioned to grow. Sharepoint is growing quickly, and within a couple of years will be really, really hard to dislodge. The number of new installations in corporate and education would make the Open Office folks giddy. Everyone here focuses on Windows and Office, trust me, Sharepoint and Exchange are a huge, huge deal. Because here's a little secret - a lot of organizations won't give their internal data to Google, or anyone else for that matter. And these are huge money makers for Microsoft.And by the way, if you've got corporate desktop licensing, you get Client Access Licenses for various applications as part of that. Makes it cheaper to run the server products.By the way, Sharepoint is going to help them hold onto the Productivity software market as well, due to the integrations. And there's a huge ISV market building around Sharepoint add-ons and products that integrate with it.I don't really care if Microsoft does well or not, but they're in the game a lot more than you think they are. They didn't hire Ray Ozzie for no reason. And given the usual delay in people noticing, when the "conventional wisdom" on Microsoft catches up to what they're likely actually doing, it's going to seem like they turned on a dime, even though they've been working on this stuff for years.They make a huge amount of money, and have a lot of cash, and they're a lot healthier than Sun, Novell and Red Hat. They've got a lot of revenue streams. Hell, I suspect their fundamentals might actually be better than Google, even though Google gets better press.
Let me guess - you don't have a degree.I know a 17 year old Kid that knows more about automotive engineering than all of the engineers that work at GM combined.In case you're wondering, that's where you lost your credibility.
Well, there's two problems with the gas tax.1. As a road usage tax it doesn't take into consideration gas for equipment like lawn mowers and chainsaws.2. It doesn't take into consideration driving done on private roads or roads not maintained by the government.#2 is pretty big in Oregon due to the amount of logging they do. There's a lot of people who spend most of their time driving on logging trails. #2 is also the reason why GPS tracking of miles driven is dumb. It could very well count miles driven on private roads.
Indeed. When my new laptop came with Office 2007 pre-loaded, I blinked when I saw this **** that moves around between each app and each setting in an app and I uninstalled the whole shebang for OO.o, although it was already paid for.

There's something deeply wrong with a country's attitude to privacy when its people have to turn to the US for better protection.

Signing a 20 year lease for a space port is historic? I'll bet history will have something to say about that. Or rather, it won't.
Some people actually need a special holiday to ***** at each other?
