I can see them military using these screens as new camo for their soliders.
They will have a bunch of these tiny screens sticked together on the clothes and tiny CCD cameras on many angles. The opposite side will display the image on the clothing. This has been attempted before using tiny mirrors and it works so so.... with this new flexible (cheap) display technology, it will give the effect of the Preditor!
Imagine a truck where a huge screen displays the opposite side's camera image and vice versa. If you have ever seen on of those large mirror-carrying trucks you know the effect. Very disorienting and if you don't look carefully it's quite easy to not even notice a truck is there!
21 Answer: Well, I don't recall when -- meaning, I
22 don't recall. I mean, that's a -- that's a simple
23 declarative English sentence: I don't recall.
--- This is hilarious! The lawyer is trying to make him state that every time he said "I don't recall" he also meant to say "I don't know". I've been to depositions before, and it is a chess match of words and statements. You have to be very sharp! Obviously Mr. Valenti has had MUCH training in this matter!
They are not deleting the information. They are just changing the PROTOCOL on how to access the information.
The quote I heard yesterday on Ottawa's talk radio CFRA is, "Instead of having one big lake of information, there will be many ponds..."
This is really troublesome, since any government official can still compile anything on anyone in Canada. This has detremental effects when you can see longterm trends in their revenue, taxes, international customs, healthcare, employment, family, driving records, assets, etc. They have a written history on the lives of virtually every Canadian!!!
I bought "Ride The Lightning" "Enter Sandman" and "And Justice For All" CDs when I was in highschool. They were then stolen from me a few years back (before MP3s came out). I was hard-presed to buy the CDs again, but I really like their music. So, when MP3s came out, I still felt guilty for downloading music I already bought, but for me it was a saviour! I didn't have to PAY TWICE to get the songs I already enjoyed.
This is one (of many) advantages of MP3s.
The question is: Now That I have downloaded their songs, should I still send in a donation, since I should have technically bought their CDs again to enjoy the music, or was the music my property since I already purchased it a few years back?
A thousand years in the future, all of humanity has unleeshed most of the secrets of the universe. Scientists have become very confident in their strides and contact God.
The main scientist said, "We don't need you anymore. We can do anything you can."
God replied, "Ok ok... let's have a little contest. Try to do what I can do"
The scientist agreed. So God placed his hands on the ground, picked up some dirt and *poof* there was a living breathing human being.
The scientist with a little smirk on his face placed his hands on the ground, and God suddenly interrupted, "Hey, get your own dirt."
I do not agree. Just because there are users who abuse the internet and usenet groups the entire domain is black listed. This is the dirtiest part of human nature! Why is it when there are bad apples the entire stereotyped population suffers!
I agree that there is a problem. All the good users should be made aware of the issues at hand. They should be then able to isolate the insolent users and cancel their subscription to @home.
Being an @home user, I will be glad to kick off the assholes that are causing crap. Hell, I would even BOTCOT @home if they do not allow users to self-moderate the system. HELLO? It is a shared network. We are all paying for it. It is about time we all share in the democracy of the system and flush out the bad apples. Make the all go to AOL for all I care! They are cost all other users of @home MONEY, TIME, and STRESS! This is more that enough justification to spend the time and effort to isolate the 10 - 20% who are abusing this service.
All those with me, call @home and complain. We should put up a website saying that there should be a faster turnaround on kick out delinquent users.
On another note: I would like to see where the AOL IPs stand in the UDP priority. I always get spam from them... is it just because it is easier to see people from @home (Ips are generally 24.112... or 24.113... etc....)????

Mostly portable, it is small, it is big, it allows one to view the future, as well as the past. It requires no batteries. It is platform independent, requires no operating system, even can teach you how to use it. It allows one to travel instantly to other countries, planets, and read minds. Together they store the whole sum of human history and all knowledge of mankind. It is the subject of great controversy. It has caused many deaths and has saved the countless lives. It is the best source of genius, true wisdom, and intellect. It is the only hope for mankind when all electricity fails and the internet cannot not exist. There are millions upon millions of other reasons why this portable gadget is THE gadget of the millenium (or of all time). If you haven't guessed it yet, you need to use it. It is the book.
Do you want cheap, city-wide, wireless internet? There is a company that can do it very cost effectively. They are currently targeting 3rd world countries who are in desperate need for wireless communications. Currently the FCC has not allowed such a platform. (blame AT&T)
Using blimps to be able to cover a very large diamater (300 - 600 km) of high bandwidth wireless internet!

Oh yea... and don't forget about the Wallp0rn...
Could they create a monkey with 6 asses?
16 Q When you say you're not aware does that
17 mean you don't know?
18 A That's a good synonym.
19 Q Okay. When you said before you don't
20 recall, did that also mean you don't know?
21 Answer: Well, I don't recall when -- meaning, I
22 don't recall. I mean, that's a -- that's a simple

I am SICK OF THIS CRAP.

How do I prove this? Receits? CC Info?
Now I'm confused.... back to Half Life...
This reminds of that Simpsons episode: "I invented a machine that downloads porn a million times faster!"

Crazy address! But try it out!
Let's agree to disagree.
Just one question. How do us "worth reading" posters get our say, when our IPs have been banned... In my case I just use my work's IP.
But what of the people who can't afford to switch or get anything else??
This is forcing a stressful situation on a person who did not commit any crimes.
