  1. Search Engines on More Threats From The MPAA · · Score: 1

    It might seem redundant to discuss search engines, but it is important.

    In principle, all the search engines could be sued by the MPAA, because their databases contain the DeCSS code. In addition, unless they specifically figure out a way to avoid linking to all possible versions of the DeCSS code (including compressed, uuencoded, etc.) they violate the ban on links.

    Basically, in order for the judge's decision to be upheld, all search engines must be put out of business.

  2. Re:Uh... on Surface Mapping Athlons For Fun And Knowledge · · Score: 1

    Well, if you really want good thermal contact, the best thing to use is indium, a soft metal. To make it work ideally, you'd remove the paint (or anodization, though Al2O3 has pretty good thermal conductivity) and use pressure. The indium fills in all the voids and eliminates a great deal of the thermal resistivity of the interface, which is probably as great as that of the thermal goo.

  3. Re:CGI and ASP on Which CGI Language For Which Purpose? · · Score: 2

    You don't have to use VB for ASP pages, you know. They work with any scripting language. Me, I use ActivePerl, which is a free scripting engine to allow the use of Perl with ASP. Try it!
