Actually, it is a little-known fact that it is actually the interactions of plot and anti-plot that power TNG's warp core, as opposed to the widely held belief that it is matter and anti-matter.
This is an exciting new field of theoretical physics that humans have only just begun to explore.
"According to wikipedia [wikipedia.org], Facebook and MySpace are cloud applications"
Could you please back that claim up with, say, an actual quote from that article saying that facebook and myspace are cloud applications?
Text-based search does not reveal either "facebook" or "myspace" at all in that article. Also, checking history since before your comment doesn't reveal anyone deleting said words.
But then how would MS get anybody to use Media Player? ie. I opened Media Player by accident the other day, and was annoyed at the welcome screen and just said use standard settings because I wanted to get rid of it. It stole all my VNC associations and I had to reset them. So no, I don't think MS will be doing anything like that any time soon.
This may have been posted already, but I've found that if you have a short "asset" number on most desktops, naming them after that is usually a pretty safe course of action. At my last job every computer have a sticker with a 6 digit "asset" tag on it, and all of the desktops hostnames were p123456. Every employee in the company KNEW what you were talking about when you said the asset tag, and since we did a lot of remote access via VNC, getting the user to tell you their hostname so you could remote became trivial. The same number was also in our warranty database and our inventory database, and it NEVER changes.
You have a problem with authority, Mr. Andreessen. You believe that you are special, that somehow the rules do not apply to you. Obviously you are mistaken. The intrawebz is one of the most totally awesome things in the world because every single browser understands that they are part of a whole. Thus if a blag has a problem, the tubes have a problem. The time has come to make a choice, Mr. Andreessen. Either you choose to respect the tubes from this day forth or you choose to find yourself another industry. Do I make myself clear?
Quite correct. He may not win in court against Lenovo, and then will have to go against MS, but at least it brings into the public light the fact that people are legally entitled to a refund, no matter who it comes from. I would be curious to read the Windows 7 EULA to see what MS wrote this time around for when you don't want to accept the EULA.
The Vista EULA specifically states:
By using the software, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the
software. Instead, return it to the retailer for a refund or credit. If you cannot obtain a refund
there, contact Microsoft or the Microsoft affiliate serving your country for information about Microsoftâ(TM)s
refund policies.
He chose to not accept them.
They only say they want to ban P2P in government and contractor offices and frankly this does make sense.
I don't work for the government, but I'm not about to start running Limewire or a torrent client on my work computer. I also certainly hope none of my coworkers do, since if they're dumb enough to, they're probably also dumb enough to let Limewire find and share any file on their harddrives that it wants - including code, payroll, proprietary software etc.
I totally agree. She should not have been searched by a cop in the first place, her parents should have been called and they should take care of it. In the end it is the parents that get to decide what to do about it, not the teacher.

If we just "keep it simple", we'd just stay home.

And oh snap in that context doesn't have a wikipedia article either: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_snap It must not be real...

They use it to power their giant mechs instead.
I think somebody's going slap happy with the Troll mods. Either that are just never saw Hackers.
Mac owner. Insane person. Same thing.

Since it is so completely incorrect and misleading. Comcast doesn't do traffic shaping. They send tcpip reset packets.

They are to Microsoft. And MS may have a contract with Lenovo that Lenovo has to honour that clause too.

Yes. Exactly.

The submitter should try a forum, this is a news site.

If you actually think 3.11 was stable, go learn about how it actually worked. Look up "co-operative multitasking".
