I still don't understand the need for a copyright for something that is clearly a service, bought and payed for by the tax payer. The state cannot own what is already owned by the tax payers. If the state is attempting to copyright the database or methods used to create this catalog used by Lexis-Nexus, then that catalog was also created on the tax payers dime and should not fall under copyright, but rather public domain.
Seems to me she's not a very good psychic if she actually has to open the banned e-mail anyway. Wouldn't she 'KNOW' that she had been banned and to include her UID in the obligatory hate mail?
As to the last one, I feel I have lost 30+ seconds of my valuable life reading that absolute tripe. I think I want to sioux...er..sue.
Who are you gonna trust? Microsoft (and Jerry) or your techie geek friend who fixes your PC?
In the end, people will go with what they know. The bulk of techie geeks avoid Vista like the plague. I tried it twice, and the irritatingly slow boot times, the glitchy wireless, the endless thrashing of the hard drive on a dual core 2 GB machine finally drove me to a Mac. I've also downgraded everyone I had upgraded, at their request.
It has a bad reputation for a reason.
Most folks assume you can simply turn off the iPhone and it will magically clear up everything. They need to do a hard shutdown, which is a different proceedure. Hold down the Standby and the Home button for a few seconds. You will see the prompt to shut down, but do NOT let up from the buttons. A few seconds later the phone will shut off on it's own. I find this fixes most app issues as well as a host of other issues. It's ALWAYS a good idea to do this after an update.
As for 2.0.2, folks are bitching about an update that they don't even know if it resolves their specific issue. Apple is to blame for this as they don't release details on what their actually fixing. That said, since they haven't said they've fixed it, I have no expectation that this will fix the 3G issue. My signal strength is indeed stronger but then again, I have never dropped a call. Until they do announce a fix for it, its a simple matter to simply turn 3G off. Guess what? It works perfectly in Edge. I can wait for a fix.
Why not true things up between local radio and internet? Charge for the potential audience a broadcast can have. Make it fair across all mediums like broadcast and internet. Let them use advertising however they need to, to make profit and pay for what they play?
How about a flat (FAIR) rate so that all of them can have an affective business rather than punishing one over the others? Although it makes me sick that the record companies might be making more profit from local radio, I think it's unfair that they pay nothing while satellite pays a fee, and internet broadcasts pay even more.
If a local station has 30 thousand listeners, and satellite has 200K, and the internet site has 2 Mil, then everyone pays, and everyone gets a slice of the copyright pie.
Why do they have to make this all so complicated? Don't answer that. I'm assuming they are looking to squeeze the biggest audience for the biggest profit. It's the record industry. They are nothing but a bunch of bloody leeches on societies ass.
I would think they would be better off concentrating on a viable raid solution in a 3.5" enclosure rather than 20K drives. Probably cheaper to manufacture, it doesn't exist now as far as I know, and the performance benefits would be similar to (if not better than) a single 20K drive. This whole 'more rpm' path is like the oil industry. On it's last leg. No matter how efficient they make these engines, it only has a limited life left.
I'm thinking if they could miniaturize this tech enough to get a 2 or 3 disk raid into a 3.5 inch enclosure, and drive it through a single sata (or multiple connectors on a single sata enclosure for desktops), they could get decent performance.
Slashdot Mirror
Is there a list of affected models buried in there somewhere?
Um...I think Hanna Montana is totally kewl. She rocks. Um, like. What were we talking about?
I never did like that show. This is probably just some bastard half-breed resulting from too much free time from that crappy ass spin-off from TNG.
