That the higher rate of aspergers and autism diagnosis could be due to the ever broadening classification for the disorder, as well as pharmaceutical influence?
Possibly not: 'hackers have embraced the Nook, "rooting" its underlying Linux software... so it can run many more applications from Google's online app store and elsewhere.'
Please... since when has "Hackers hacked this" brought something into the mainstream? While it may make it a topic of conversation on tech blogs for a while, and increase user base slightly (niche product, adding another niche user group), hacking is not mainstream. While I have read all day long on most of these blogs that a kinect can do really cool things and are totally hackable and awesome, even living in silicon valley and surrounded by engineers I only know 1 or 2 actual people who own one, and they just use it as it was intended. Same goes for the Nook. The only person I know who owns one of them is my Grandmother (true story), and she picked it because it seemed less complicated then an iPad for reading books.
I love the hacker community and I love being a part of it, I believe that the work we do trying new things and extending functionality of existing products shapes the future. But let us be honest, the mainstream adopts the end solution, not the hack. I see a future with augmented reality, virtual presence, and computers aware of your presence and position in space are common place. But these devices won't be powered by hacked kinects, but what was inspired by them.
I wonder what share of the 30% of people who use their pads in a restaurant are a part of the 35% of people using their pads on the John... And I wonder how many of them bother to disinfect.
SHA/MD5 are not alternatives (already mentioned above) as they are one-way.
Real alternative is to have a standardized global keychain (like implemented by iOS), which doesn't offer extra security when there is no pincode set (other then obfuscation), but offers at least one additional layer with a password or pin-code actually set. (not to mention, with pin code enabled there is a free layer of hardware encryption enabled as well).
No, patents do not need to be defended to remain valid. You are thinking of trademarks.
They do need to be defended to be respected however. If there are lots of violations of a particular patent in the wild, then it will seem less dangerous to other companies who want to make money off the patented idea without having to license. By vigorously defending the patent, it shows other would be opportunists that they should try some other idea to rip off for their personal gain. Better to be a hard target then a soft one.
Also, since you're new to the club I'd like to offer you a leech account on our private warez site - use your existing login name and password when you ftp to 127.0.0.1
Actually, as much as I hate to admit it, from my experience, Intelligence is more of an entitlement then beauty or knowledge. While a person with ugly genes can be made more beautiful with surgery, makeup, exercise, proper lighting, paper bags, etc... a dumb person is pretty much stuck that way. They can increase their Knowledge (capital K), and through lots of hard work and application of that knowledge show improved reasoning... but I think the variable factor here is much smaller.
I think the key here (and likely what Apple plans to do), is to avoid having the honey pot in the first place. The iCloud service has no need beyond the original matching to keep a record of what Hash was used by which user to get which legal version of what music file. By not retaining any personally identifying information (beyond what legitimate songs a user is entitled too)... Apple could truthfully and fully comply with any subpoena without giving away anything.

When did Irene start being a hurricane? Looks like all the readings submitter found indicate it never was.

Happy dining!
Bingo.
Chick getting arrested in the picture for the article reeks of Santa Cruz. Makes me want to yell at her to get a job.
If your devices are 802.11n compatible, you could put your router in n only mode... The 5.4ghz band may be less crowded.

All those pie charts make me hungry.

Damn.. I've already got everything on that site :(
Couldn't have said it better myself.
There is a certain humor to using a cache to view a page regarding 404's... I just can't verbalize it.

Can't fight dumb.
See... Told ya so.

Given:
(Max Nurturable Beauty) / (Natural Beauty) = (Beauty affectability)
(Max Nurturable Intelligence) / (Natural Intelligence) = (Intelligence affectablity)
It's been my experience that:
(Beauty affectability) > (Intelligence affectability)
Which can be summarized as:
Can't fight dumb.
America is on my No-Fly List, and has been for a good long while.
Obviously, because the situation you described is unique to flights to and from America.
Yeah.. but they don't need the source. Only the RIAA wants that.

Spoiler: The cake is a lie.
I think that meme's time has passed.
Could be to do with my automatic typo plugin... I really should unistanll that.
Yeah.. how the hell do those thinks work anyway?
