This makes perfect sense, instead of coming up with uptillion of DRM solutions, just develop on for the brain, install it with an "accidentally" released gene-modification virues, and you have a perfect system for about $100-$200 mill, which is a few months profit for Disney anyway.
These are the same bastards who robbed all of us from public domain, with their near-sighted and campaing-contibution-rich approach...
I got mine as well back in May, but those screwy bastards sent me $13 as
1,300 PENNIES!
Damn them, I almost broke my back.

I second (third) this. My limit is 4pm and usually getting to bed at midnight. If I drink coffee later, I stay up later, with miserable sleep.
Other thing is your monitor. It is proven that staring at a bright object will postpone your sleep cycle. (It applies to TV as well), so lay it off by 9-10pm, then you will get sleepy naturally.
Well, it's still better than here in the US. This would most definitely end up being a clear-cut terrorism case. These two guys would already be working on their tan in Gitmo. In about 3-5 years after a lengthy legal process involving the US Superior Court, they will be allowed to proceed with their legal defense, which of course will be completely torpedoed by the fact that the prosecution will introduce any and all evidence as "top secret", so the defense team will not be able to counter any of them. They will serve 30 years, in solitary confinement.
Asserting that the news.google.com is a small cross-section of the news might be true, but the 11 o'clock news is a much smaller cross section then.
Anyway, I think the 11 o'clock news (which lasts one hour) already is 5 minutes if you deduct all the time spent on adverts. If you run it through the highlights alg. you will end up with:
If you get 2-3 of you stick together and threathen mass resignation, you will have a better chance of forcing them to rethink. This probably hurt your advancement, but do you really want to work at such crappy place? And if your area has such crappy job market, maybe you should try to move around?
I'll probably get slammed for it but multinational execs probably love China's repression of its people and America's repression of its own. Most corporations deep down really want quiet subservient people who go to work every day, keep secrets, keep their mouth shut, don't complain and don't organize to get better wages and benefits. Multinational execs in China might get upset with China's rules if they interfere with their SMS traffic but I wager China is being selective and not putting this filtering on foreign executives phones.
There is another connection here. These multinationals, almost all based in the US, are happy to supply all tools to the Chinese government to spy on its citizenry. Constitution and Human Rights be damned when we are talking about contracts in the billions of USD.
It is ironic, that the true totalitarian society is going to be built on the backs of "free" world enterprises, which are happy to support oppression as long as there is profit. The Soviet Russia never succeeded to truly oppress 100% of the population, but with the help of advanced technology China can. It is just funny that this advanced tech is all imported from the US...
Almost. More like dithering for audio. Antialiasing is more like downsampling, where you have the original more detailed then the end result. This is where the input does not have details, but the output does... As we both know it is impossible to pull out "details" form one's ass, so this kind of tech is dubious at worst and transparent at best.
I have something similar on my panny amp, it resamples CD audio to 192 kHz and "invents" 3 new values. It does not do harm, but to claim that "dramatically" enhances the sounds is plain marketing (ie. lie). They even went as far as created 4 modes for it, and advise you to select between the modes based on the type of music you play...
I don't consider it troll. The point of the article was to point out how interchangable Win and Linux is. My initial reaction was to point out how bull it is. Then I started thinking that the point is that almost all programs can be run on either, regardless of where they originate. From this point of view it is moot to talk about wrapped calls, as it sorta works, where sorta is between 97% and 98% (if you prefer to call that sorta).
"Under the terms of the agreement, the two sides agreed on key points including:
a common signal structure for so-called "open" services, and a suitable signal structure for the Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS).
a process allowing improvements, either jointly or individually, of the baseline signal structures in order to further improve performances.
confirmation of inter-operable time and standards to facilitate the joint use of GPS and Galileo."
Now I am 100% sure that the above in plain Engrish just says: US is happy announce that they already have the technology to effectively suppress and/or interfere with the Galileo signals, so now these Franch bastard can proceed.
I need to point out that your selection criteria should include multiple firewire ports, and firewire controllers on both the drive and ant the server end. Should add only marginal cost to your setup.
I have a maxtor FW single HDD backup solution, but I definitely would not recommend that particular one for constant on situation (for lack of ventillation). It seems that when the drive does the temp calibration the FW insterface hiccups, and the ongoing transfer gets interupted. All is well after diconnection and reconnection. I only notice it when I am doing unison on very large directories (30+GB), but if you would serve files off of it, you might be getting into trouble as well.
Other issue with FW is bandwitdh. I am getting about 40-50MBps which is enough for sustained transfers, but the drive would be capable to 100MBps in burst (short files cached on the drive). This might be detrement to the file server performance.
I do have to say that I quite like the idea of having 4-6 external FW (or better FW800) disks hooked up, and running a virtual RAID5. This way the failed disk would be very easily hot-swapped. And might even be much cheaper than having hot-swap support backplane/chassy/server.
Several of the non-SLR digital cameras are serious tools as you put it, and get close or even surpass the photo quality of an Canon Digital Rebel (especially the poorly maintained ones, with dust in the innards).
While there are a large number of digital cameras which are not any better than the point and shoot, there are several ones, which are just as good as SLR for most cases.
Think of high-end Nikon, Sony and Olympus, etc. Any of which is generally more portable than a SLR with 1-2 lenses. (Ie. you don't need a backpack to lug it all around)
BTW, I think Nikon D70 got better ratings than Canon Digital Rebel. It is true that Canon beat everyone to be the fist digital SLR in the 1k range, but now ther is choices, especially if you consider +10% pricerange.
Well I got 35GB of music and listen to about 1000 regularly. I got a 10gig g2 ipod, and is becoming to be a hassle to select the 10gig for carrying. I'd rather just sync all of it up and not worry about it. With my emusic subsription and cd buying habit the collection is actively being grown at the rate of about 1 gig a month. I have most of my music ripped to 256 CBR and emusic has 192 avg CBR. Only thing holding me back from reripping the whole shebang in lossless is the fact that it would grow to about 6X to about 200GB. Which is fine for HD, but would never sync to ipod (at least until they come out with 200gb+ ipods).

All these ergonomics stuff is available in my IKEA chair. It is their higher end, cost me like $250. I have not had any backproblem since...
Get the VERKSAM or NOMINELL models.

I think there might be another option. You could just use a repeater for cell bands, this way you could create your own little verizon cell...
On the other hand it might be that those devices are prescribed...

Yeah, just turn on the microwave. Alternatively you can microwave the lecture hall. Added bonus is the exploding humans...
