Yeah. The plane to Zimbabwe leaves in three hours. Please be on it. Oh, and if you can find actual Internet access when you get there, please tell us how the 2,200,000% annual inflation rate is doing. Loaf of bread = Z$18,000,000,000.
You'll be MUCH better off there. Unless you want to vote for the opposition party in the next presidential election. Then you'll probably be dead, which is of course a much better outcome than being disenfranchised with an opportunity to voice your concern and do something about it.
Ultra-ATA? Ha ha... you are so young. IDE didn't even exist yet when the 5 1/4" floppy first appeared. Those were the days of 5 MB hard disk with ST-506 interfaces, 1-5 MHz CPUs, and 40-column monochrome displays. Now get off my lawn! Floppy drives? Hard drives? You young whippersnappers...
If you have a death certificate and are next of kin and can reasonably prove the account belongs to who you say it does, they probably do not have a choice. A subpoena could probably compel them to provide you with access.
But that's a lot of "ifs". You forgot this one - "if" that's what a subpoena actually did.
OK, let me type slower and see if I can be more clear.
In this specific instance, if you look at the picture, at the point in spacetime that the vehicle being driven by this particular driver reached the particular gravel/concrete transition in the specific driveway we're discussing, this particular driver would have had to have been somewhat less intelligent than the tree to the left of the driveway to not realize he had left a roadway.
Oh for crying out loud you freaking morons! Look at the pictures and shut up. To not realize that you were on someones driveway once the road turned from gravel to concrete would require that you're too stupid to walk or drive. Look at the freaking pictures!
You can CLEARLY see that you're driving up to someone's garage, not driving past a house on a road, whether public or private.
It's a YARD! There's LANDSCAPING! You're about to hit a TRAMPOLINE!
POP! (Blood dribbling from nose.) This ruptured aneurysm brought to you by common sense from someone who RTFA, which probably disqualifies this as a legitimate/. post.
Damnit! make up your AI minds! or at least get some new updates or something.
Oooo! Updates! That's how the series will end. They find earth in the current day and send Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum (who now do black ops for Ravenwood) to infect the Resurrection Ship with Vista SP1. Then the Cylons crash into the ocean until the Blue Fairy finds them and turns them into REAL little boys and girls. Or the ocean dries up and they find Rodney's hologram on Atlantis. Or they crash into R'lyeh, because, you know, Cthulhu waits with the Senior Partners from Wolfram and Hart. Unless one of the Replicators from the Russian submarine gets to them first. Or they just turn out to be Decepticons from the Delta Quadrant like Twiki.
Come on, kids. No matter what you think of BSG, it could be WAY worse...
You end up having to say "A as in Alpha" instead otherwise they can't cope. It's even worse if they are a foreign national whose English language skills aren't so strong.

I don't suppose pointing out that silicon the element and silicone the polymer are different will stop the impending flood of breast implant jokes, will it?
There would still be hard times if he stuck to his principles which are the principles America was founded upon.
Ya know, I was more or less with you until right here. If you really consider this to be a huge invasion of your personal liberties, how can it not be incumbent on you to resist? Read the above-quoted sentence again - does it really make sense? You're right - it will suck to be out of work when you're the sole bread-winner. But if you're serious enough about this issue then you'll do what the founding fathers did and take a stand, depending on your friends and neighbors to help you out until the issue is resolved. If you think that you don't have friends and neighbors that you can fall back on, or if you think its not right to ask them for support, well, you probably don't actually believe in the principles America was founded upon.
"...the fact that the sun is "middle-aged" means that such flares are less likely..."
OK, so maybe I AM middle aged, and I don't flare as often as I used to. I can still flare pretty much whenever I want to, and I flare quite nicely, thank you. I just need a little longer between flares than I did when I was in my 20,000,000s.
The d4 sounds going for it's piercing potential, but being so light it would require a slingshot or such
Oh come on. This is slashdot. Let science and magic collide (props to Piers Anthony). Who said a d4 had to be plastic? Think granite. Steel. Lead. Depleted uranium.
On psychological tests, people who explicitly deny racist attitudes will still implicitly associate words like evil, danger, and thief with pictures of black males more quickly than with pictures of white males.
Psychological tests performed where and upon whom? I seriously doubt that these tests would return the result you described in Kenya, Fiji or Trinidad and Tobago.
Our consitution explicitly denies the president all powers and then grants him specific ones.
I'm not sure I agree with you exactly, but the Constitution does CLEARLY say
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. (Amendment X - Powers of the States and People. Ratified 12/15/1791)

What the hell kind of comment is that to make on Slashdot? Most people here LIVE to throw technology at a problem...
Tell that the the guy with the pacemaker, internal insulin pump or carbon-composite prosthesis...
I have a card reader in my basement.
I see your 'get of my lawn' and raise you a 'And turn down that noise you call music'!
Yeah, you know... if you're going to live by those acronyms you might want to get them right. It's TANSTAAFL.

I'd say that since the New York Times has 'made available for download' a copy of the recording, we should be hearing from the RIAA any minute now.

Its more an issue of how LONG you'll be paying than how much.
And the payment plan is, well, forever...

I think I'd rather get a zeptoboy than a femtoboy.

No, really.
