Sorry, that's not quite what I meant. I said a staged murder. They happen all the time in the movies. Do you believe Hollywood really kills that many actors?
Ah.Well the parent didn't seem to be talking about a staged event, and at any rate, just because something is staged doesn't mean it isn't real. By taking pictures of an actual killing and posting them publicly you have staged the event in a way to bring it to the public eye.
As for Hollywood killing actors? Well..... that's open for debate.
Pictures of yourself in a public establishment showing your bare top (which is only illegal because of laws based on gross and outdated cultural taboo) are quite a bit different than staged murder of persons not in agreement to appear in your picture. Your analogy was more than a little rediculous.
Is rediculous the same as ridiculous? I'm guessing not since murder is a cultural taboo. Just ask any aboriginal cannibal whose culture is quite different from your own.
I'm also not quite sure if you're saying that it's OK to murder people as long as they agree to be filmed, but it sure sounds like it.
So, if a new product comes out and, no matter how incredibly awesome it might be, if they report that someone bought the product that would be an indication that the product has a long way to go?
Remember that the next time Microsoft brings out a new product and the first sales figures are reported....
I'd like to know why you've opted out of learning on digital equipment? Prices are dropping and you can get some great buys on stuff that's been superceded (not obsoleted) by later models. Additionally you can get tons of EXIF info from the files and look at histograms that will help you to learn why one picture looks so much better than another (when the problem is more than being in or out of focus).
I've moved to digital for a number of reasons and can't see why anyone who's just getting in to the field would opt for film at a time when companies like Kodak are announcing no new development on film-based technologies to concentrate on digital.
The only reason I can see for it is if you intend to make huge prints. Most everything else you can do with film is available (and even huge prints if you've got the budget for a medium format with a digital back) in the digital realm now and it's only going to lean more in the direction of newer technology.
Once you have something like a K1000 dialed in to where you think the action will be, you can get a picture from it as soon as you stab the shutter.
Well, if you're "stabbing" the shutter you're probably going to ruin the pic anyway with motion blur. With an auto-everything camera you can do the same thing by putting it in manual mode. I think the parent's point was that with a fully manual camera you can't get the pics you suddenly stumble upon, like the wildlife along the hiking trail before it spooks.
In your scenario, I set up my focus and aperture ahead of time and wait for the action to cross my focal plane (I know the play is going to be at first base so that's where I'm focused), with the auto you point to first base and partially depress the shutter release - everything focuses and you complete the shutter press as the runner and the ball arrive together at the pre-determined location.
Now if something surpising happens at second base My auto might be able to get the picture, but your manual won't.
My problem with Pentax is that they haven't really brought anything to the table in the digital SLR arena. I too sing their praises when it comes to backward compatibility on lenses, but I've really been trying to move to digital and can't get a Pentax digital body to go with the lenses I have (I haven't seen the new D-SLR they've announced in stores yet). Because of that I've seriously been considering the Canon EOS 10-D (because my wallet won't let me consider the 1-D).
And the laughter continues as I wonder where you got the "r" - it's generally pronounced "dE-'ba-k&l" or "de-b&-k&l" (I've always preferred the latter). I thought debunkle was funnier though.....
Interesting. I would think that someone who doesn't have the time/skills/desire to put something together and only wants somethig that works out of the box would be the spoiled one...
Although vinyl has some big plusses for me.. like it's interactive tactile qualities... you can stop it with your hand.. spin it backwards.. scratch it.. tap it... break it in half and/or throw it if it sucks...
I never understood how somebody who scratches records would be able to tell if the quality was poor enough to warrant trashing it.
If we pay exhorbitant license fees for second-rate crapware with first-rate marketing, we don't have any money left to pay American programmers. Or apparently, even to hire American grad students.
IANAMA (I Am Not A Microsoft Apologist), but that just doesn't add up. You would certainly have less money because of the proprietary stuff purchased up front, but they're still spending money on developers after the fact. They could have used that money to hire their own grad students and wouldn't have had to rely on a third party to broker the deal (which is likely where a big chunk of those development dollars went).
I agree that it would make more sense to listen to your technical staff who might recommend open source than to go goose-stepping behind the latest Gartner group findings - unless you're willing to admit publicly that the shills at Gartner are more technologically astute than the folks that are teaching the techies at your institution of higher learning.....
Guess that goes to show that, somewhere along the line, all of us answer to a PHB....
I take my camera everywhere also. I've never been kicked out (I've even taken it into movie theaters which is a no-no). I have had a couple of places wanting to know what's with the bag. Told one guy it was my purse. He just stammered as I walked past.
I'd have thought an apple store would welcome an opportunity to let you see how easily your digicam interfaced with their stuff.
Um, in security, a potential compromise is a compromise.
So, your machines have all been compromised.
Any machine, OS or software has the potential to be compromised in a number of different ways. Many times a piece of software can be used for years and thought to be secure until somebody stumbles across a vulnerability of some kind. That means that no matter how secure you think your particular installation is, every box in it may very well have potential exploits.
The review talks a lot about the basic networking explained in the book, but does it go into specifics with regards to CISCO gear? I'd think that would be as important for someone considering a CCNA cert.
...only thing I can think of is OS2 which is hardly a household name. Im sure they have some software but I would guess most of there money is in hardware.
IBM does sell software, but primarily as a way to leverage their sales of hardware and services. Not that they don't make any money on software, it's more a means to an end for them and they happen to make a little coin along the way....
i thought that he was being subpoened as a witness, but now that he needs legal representation, is he being a defendent...
Not yet. It's a prudent move to protect him. Legal representation could help coach you on what to say or not to say in order to avoid implications that could later get you into trouble. That's not to say he will be coached to lie but to know his rights and how to present information so that it can't be misconstrued and used against you later.

First - get a dictionary and look up censopship.
I couldn't find it. I also couldn't find "promlem". Dang defective dictionary....

And what if the service provider goes belly-up?

..because they're unable to survey cellular only users to find out their demographic information.
Before automation, weren't most polls conducted via mail (or in person)? Can't survey by phone is not the same as can't survey at all.

So, what about lower light conditions when you can't afford that tradeoff? (Sorry about the late post - I've been away....)

I even recall a well-known senator once saying, in stark contrast to your own post, "I am... A MACHINE."
I thought that was the governor of California....

Your bias is showing.
It's not the same. The spammer doesn't gain access to your machine in the same sense as a cracker.

Windows still runs the most servers (not sites but servers) of any OS
So is your contention that it takes more Windows servers to run fewer sites? That doesn't sound like bragging rights....
