I don't think the same person would be able to show up fifty different times without someone at the office recognizing him. The problem is when you have a system like the one here in Texas, where all claims are done by internet and phone. We do have required classes though, but those usually only kick in on your 2nd month.
So what exactly do we do with the kids in the "supression file"? Or maybe a better question: what do we do with their parents after their kids are hauled off?
Technically, haven't we terraformed Earth by cutting down forests, building cities where heat builds up in localized areas, and by raising the temperature of the globe? We definitely have the potential for it, but we need to work on applying it positively.
I used this once at CVS. The guy printing my photos was savvy enough to ask me for the camera. He matched the serial number on the body to the serial number encoded in each of the files, and happily printed them for me.
Yahoo offers online file storage with a set ammount for free, and a fee-based structure for buying more space. Upload is through the web, and it also allows you to set up public folders for files you need to distribute.
Barring that, you can use an external hard-drive. I use a firewire storage enclosure with a 250 GB drive to back up my notebook, and to provide extra storage for video editing.
That depends on where they put the security locks. They could put it in the kernel, but then a developer could substitute the Darwin kernel without the locks, and use Grub to launch it.
More likely, they'll put it in the window server or in one of the other parts of the OS specific to OS X. That way, the kernel will come up, launch the window server. (or other component) The window server checks the manufacturer ids and other locking data on the motherboard, and then shuts down the machine if it doesn't find it. The key may be finding a way to redirect it to something that mimics the hardware locks.
Apple can do all it can to lock down the software, but someone will figure out how to break the security. It may be challenging, but I'd be willing to bet that someone will either rewrite the software so that it runs using the necessary parts of Darwin, or they'll find a way to build a duplicate piece of hardware which fakes the id codes.
I wouldn't worry about it so much. Except for the processor, Apple already uses much of what's in most PC's. They use PCI for the expansion bus, AGP for their graphics (I think), and the same hard drives and glue logic. The real difference is that everything is tightly integrated and tested by Apple, and it runs a much better BIOS (openfirmware) and operating system.
An Apple machine built around an Intel processor will still be an Apple machine in every way. It'll still be well debugged; everything will just work, and the user won't notice the difference.
If the state charges the company to recycle their computers, they will just pass the cost along in the cost of buying a new computer. Corporations never really pay these fees; they're always borne by the consumer.
Same goes for corporate income taxes, they're just passed along in the price of the products we buy.
They do have to pay the light bill. I don't think it's a fair complaint though. If they're making the non-public-domain works search-only, then these companies should be happy because it may drive additional buyers to them.
I think I'd just give up watching movies completely, and read more. There's no way I'm providing biometric data for something I should have fair use rights to in the first place.
Talk to the AP computer science teachers about getting their students to develop a load generator solution. It should make an interesting extra credit assignment for them.
If nothing else, put it on the network and invite them to use it as much as possible.

The real victim is going to be the poor sap who gets laid off only to find someone already used up his unemployment insurance.

Don't worry. Sooner or later you'll probably end up collecting unemployment.
All you need is a fake ID and a convenient local check cashing/payday loan place. All the anonymity required at a 10% fee.

Definitely, but you don't want to push it to the degree that you put New York underwater.

Ob. Seinfeld quote: "Not that there's anything wrong with that."
You're right. It's technically perjury.

We're scheduled to hit 36 C later this week. How do you think this setup would do here?
I do not goose step!

You missed that clause in the license agreement, didn't you.
If it is, then this guy is a shoe-in.

The Drafthouse has done a jaws pool party as part of their rolling road show for several years now...
This sounds like a fun idea for them, and since they're expanding beyond Austin, it'll be good to get their name out there.

I'm patenting the process for treating a patent as an object. Everybody owes me money.
Can the computers be booted from a CD? If so, just take in your Knoppix disc and enjoy.
