I would be happier if all the bugs were worked out of the switch to HD first. Like how the picture and sound do not sync up, strange artifacts, the whole thing just cutting out and back in. This was on Cox at a relative's house over the weekend. There were still problems over the air, and this location is less than five miles from the transmitters for all the stations in the area.
Right, but not on target. The issue is that if databases include enough data, and seemingly trivial data at that, by selecting good common elements and good databases to generate union result sets, I can show that it really was you at the Game Store that bought Bitchslap III, Nun Terror At The Vatican for PS3 at 7:30 PM last Tuesday, and you were
not at the bar watching football like you claim.
English is not my first language, so I probably didn't catch the whole meaning, but...
The idea was that everyone can be identified with only the birth date, gender and ZIP code? So... err... There is, in fact, not even one ZIP code that has two people living there of the same gender that happen to share a birthday? Sure, to have the year coincide would take a bit more than just the date itself but it's hard for me to imagine that this could be true.
So... what did I miss?
It takes more than just these three items. What was meant was that if you take these three items, and run them against a database of known items, you end up knowing more from the combination than from the two separately. In this case, if you have a database with redacted information, and a second, non related, database that happens to have the redacted elements from the first, by selecting a good set of common keys to run a union of the two, you can "un-redact" the missing information. Nothing new here. The point is that confidential information is that way for a reason, and should not be released at any level of sanitization.
Scouts not allowed to carry knives. What next? Pointed sticks? Bananas? Cherries (black and red)? If the UK now bans all knives, what will they do when the street thugs start beating people to death with their fists? Cut off hands? At some point one would think they need address the underlying problem, and not the inanimate objects used to express it.
Seldom at work, but all the time at life. One should understand why, when they run everywhere, their uncle refers to them as "Phidippides", or why avocados have that name, or even if you are thinking of a career as a moonshiner why you don't use lead pipe in the still.
The area that has been burning has not had a major fire in something like 60 years, so there is lots of fuel. But, what makes this fire unusual is that there is no Santa Ana wind to make it bigger. This fire is doing it all on its own.
I don't know why some people are all excited about an eleven year old with his own cannon. Kids that age already build some of their own stuff that is at least as dangerous. Spud guns, tennis ball guns, zip guns, tiger traps with punji sticks, pipe bombs, Molotov Cocktails, chlorine gas grenades, stills, the list goes on and on.
A lot of it is employee theft. From back when I worked at Wal Mart, not all the bubbles on the ceiling had cameras, not all the cameras were active, but the ones that were on the monitor in the store managers office were all trained on the people at the cash register.
if its start to make noises, raise smoke or shake un normally, itâ(TM)s a sign something is about to happen.
Are we talking iPhone, or Mt. St. Helens?
Seriously, I would like to think that there would be some way to overload protect things to prevent this. I know lithium batteries are special, but why can't there be some element that opens up to prevent the phaser on overload scenario?
What is this based on? I currently own five cars, all of them have over 100k miles on them. Some bought used, some bought new, and the only problem I have had was with the used cars that came out of a non-gasohol area needing frequent fuel filter changes. I admit that if I forgot to do this it killed the in-tank fuel pump, but that was something I knew would happen, I just forgot about the needed maintenance. I have seen no evidence of "engine destruction." I have not heard about any engine destruction, with the exception of a news story last year where a small engine mechanic said that older engines had trouble with the ethanol fuel mix. Well, if the fuel system has neoprene parts, it will get attacked by the ethanol. None of my yard machines has had a fuel problem, and a friend with a landscape company has not had any fuel issues either.

Maybe the wool industry should start investing in this?
Why? Does the world really need another non-standard use for sheep?
That idea has been patented by Shampoo.
Yeah, but I bet they were an asshole before they got good at the job, too.

"No, Ma'am, the [Department of Homeland Security] do not have a sense of humor we are aware of."
It's bike, Jim, but not as we know it.
Thanks! I knew I could count on someone for this!
Why was this modded "troll"? This is sarcasm. Must be someone unschooled who got mod points.

You didn't read the slashdot post of the set top box with the IR sensor, or camera, or whatever?
Yeah, I walk around the office on eggshells because there are a couple of people I figure would just go porno if they got upset.
And here I thought Martian dog pee could be refined into a motor fuel.
My mistake.
I wouldn't watch Genital Hospital with a gun to my head! Give me All My Children, or give me Death!
Well, maybe Tea and Cake instead of Death, but you get the idea.

Why, yes, Wildstar, I do have a video of that show.
Fooker, is that you?
As long as I can still donate urine...
Some of this is employee theft.

Unfortunately, the good stuff we create can also be used as bad stuff. We don't need a law to cover every possible event in life.
