It will cause you to quite literally be blown away by law enforcement when they see you holding what appears to be a grenade.
Joking aside, I fail to see how this is supposed to be comparable to wikileaks. While wikileaks is undeniably intended to help whistleblowers, this is a tool suitable for multiple (not not necessarily ethical) purposes. Mind, I don't see too many corporate espionage agents actually using this as is...
Have you actually tried to find Google as a search provider for IE9? Last I tried it, Google wasn't even present until the list of search providers. Clicking on "see more" resulted in loading a webpage...again, without Google present. Using the search field present on that webpage to look for "Google" yields no results.
If I recall, I finally got Google by searching on Bing for how to set up Google as the search provider for IE9. I ended up downloading an addon from Google which added it to the list of search providers in IE9.
The basic premises of the Matrix is fundamentally flawed.
Why the ^%$^ would you grow humans when you can grow, you know, YEAST, for much more benefit at a fraction of a hassle?
I recall the director being interviewed and mentioning that the original promise was that humans were being harvested not for energy, but for brainpower, to act as biological computers. However, this idea was scrapped as too technical for the general audience to understand.
Treat me like a slave or a commodity, and I will leave.
There's lots of room for interpreting in the meaning of "telling a person what to do", but why object to "being told what to do"? There was no mention of slave-like behaviour, just a statement of fact. Seriously, does your boss actually ask you if you want to work? No, he tells you to because he's paid to do so, and you're paid to listen and work.
The results of the study come at an interesting time. For years anime distributors where considered quite lenient towards piracy, but last week the American anime distributor Funimation announced lawsuits against 1337 alleged BitTorrent downloaders.
The linked videos of his visit are hosted on youtube and in one you can see the poor chef throwing his implements into the air and missing the catch several times.
What says they don't have something else, much better hidden, while Stuxnet gets all the attention?
Maybe Stuxnet was meant to be discovered and cover the trail of another attack.
So, the victorious orbital forces would have to bring in a transport ship chock full of Space Marines and drop them all at once in little capsules (little because they can only be so big for the atmosphere to effectively brake them, and because you don't want all your Marines perishing in some unfortunate incident
Ah, so I suppose a few of them perishing would be acceptable.
The moral of the story: education is still too cheap for foreigners in the United States. If you want more US citizens to obtain degrees in these fields, charge much more to people from other countries - this will decrease demand from foreigners and open spots to US citizens.
Eh?
Using McGill University and Harvard for comparison:
McGill foreign students tuition fees: about $31k a year.
Harvard students tuition fees: about $34k a year.
Not including administrative fees, club fees or expenses for room and board.
Indeed, James reveals that Three Rings' MMO Puzzle Pirates takes in approximately $50 each month from each paying user (ARPPU) for a total of $230,000 a month, all resulting from microtransactions.
On the subject of the URL malware detector -- I assume you're talking about AVG's "LinkScanner" plugin added in by v8?
There's been quite a few webmasters up in arms about it, see here.
Also, it's possible to disable LinkScanner (Tools->Advanced settings->Linkscanner). AVG gets annoying at this point because it'll give out warnings about bad security settings, but this can be solved at the previously mentioned "Advanced settings", under "Ignore faulty conditions".
Oops, I should say said "hearing test would take about 10 minutes". I don't really notice the time though, but in my experience, it goes fairly quickly, half an hour seems rather excessive. Then again, I'm rather used to the procedure, I guess it would take longer for people who have to be talked through the steps.
Well, the technical solution would be to have your hearing tested, then obtain hearing aids which would boost the decibel level of only those frequencies which need it.
You might be able to hear properly in, say, the bass range, but be losing it because you've turned up the volume across ALL frequencies to hear the higher range.

Boil bacon? Such an atrocity! Everybody knows that bacon is best eaten raw.

Don't you mean meese?
How likely would NASA be able to get funding obtained from an increase in the tax base, though?

This is open sauced.

By not contradicting his appointee's position, he's supporting it.
That depends on whether he's even aware of what's happening. He's one guy, and bureaucracy can't keep you up to date on everything.
I found this a very interesting short story on the consequences of prolonged copyright.

It's an error in the summary. The article states:

Real-time play? Actually, a turn-based combat MMORPG would be nice. Think something along the lines of Final Fantasy Tactics during battle.
One turn-based combat mmorpg I would suggest is Dofus. The combat is quite similar to FF Tactics, although it is a limited F2P.
Sounds like a bunch of smelly hands.

This reminds me of a previous slashdot posting.
