I think you may want to take another look at the the third word you used there. Although the Morris worm could have carried a viral payload, it didn't. I'm actually pretty surprised no one has added a viral payload to something like the wu_ftpd worm yet.
They've had the same law in MA since I was in grade school at least. I never saw it cause any problems. People just generally know to keep their eyes open when a school bus is around (they should anyway regardless of laws). I don't know if the MA fine is that severe though, I think it's more like $100.
On the right of way thing... In Boston it is a point of pride among pedestrians that the normal mode of crossing the street is to hurl yourself into traffic. You can always spot the tourists waiting at the corner for the light on Mass. Ave. Of course, it made for a rude awakening the first time I went to New York;-) I heard that pedestrian right of way dates back to the revolutionary war. Rebelling colonies like MA passed right of way laws while Torrie states like NY didn't.
I work in Boston in the Back Bay area. Parking here can be in excess of $400/month (at the Prudential lot, anyway). The parking in our building is extremely limited and the waiting list for one of these spots is years long. My company will kick in $250 for the parking or 50% of the cost of a T pass, which I think is very reasonable.
I really don't think it is the employer's responsiblity to pay for your transportation costs. Sure if the office is in a rural area or on in some industrial park off of the highway, then they pretty much have to provide parking.
Hey, come to think of it it doesn't. IIRC, Netscape 4.x had this feature. I think the aestitic with Mozilla's status line was to keep it clean rather than verbose.
But if regular cells accrue genetic drift through generational changes, how come this isn't so with sperm? Or if it is the case, how come we don't worry about older men reproducing as much as we worry about older women?
Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have. Each month after puberty, an egg matures and detaches itself from the ovary. Men, on the other hand, are constantly producing sperm. I'm no expert, but my guess is that a forty year old egg is more likely to have incurred damage than a few day old sperm produced by forty year old testes.
I've had a BayBank^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Bank Boston ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Fleet account for 10 years and I've never had a problem with my pin, which is 6 digits. You may have just been using a brain damaged ATM.
SF 2 (original) for SNES - Play as Chun Li and do a fierce jump kick. If you got the distance right, they will either get hit by the jump kick or block. If they block, you can throw them before they let their guard down. Works especially well if you do it as they are getting up. I don't think it works with the "faster" later editions.
If it's private enough to use Freenet for, why would he post his reasons to/.?:-) regardless of whatever else I use it for, I'd come back just for CofE: SSK@9G4s~jLQJB7ALQg-v2q5xKAJy9YPAgM/CofE//
But that was exactly what King et al wanted. They wanted the other side to look barbaric by attacking people. The problem was that the thousands of individual incidents doesn't have the same effect as the sight of a squad of police attacking a group of people sitting peacfully in a diner. Sometimes the only way to expose an unfair law is to force the governments hand. To stand up and and say, "Is this law worth killing me for? How about these 100 other people? How about in front of the national press?"
I know it's extereme, and no healthy person would want to martyr themself, but sometimes it's the only way to effect a change. The problem with these technologies are they allow the government a "sanitary" solution to a messy problem and weakens civil disobediecne, which is kinda the second-to-last resort of the people.
Part of the problem with data disappearing is due to the instability of the code base. Up until recently people had to reset their datastore anywhere from once a week to everyday. This made it kind of hard for your inserted data stick around very long unless you're CofE:)
I think the new store is pretty stable. It croaked once on me, but it was a pre-459 running under a build 459 node, so I don't reall blame it. I think once 0.5 is out things will start to look pretty good.
Devil May Cry, on the other hand, is an over-the-top action game that reminded me in many ways of playing Sonic the Hedgehog when I was a kid. But because it has some small amounts of blood, even though the player NEVER fights anything remotely human, it, too, gets an "M" rating.
You never watched the cinema screens then. The main character get quite gorily impaled twice. Not to mention two of the bosses. Great game, but it does feature bucket-loads of blood.
You may want to take a closer look at the article. It's about retinal scanning displays, not biometrics. The laser paints an image on your retina , creating an overlaid HUD.
I really don't know. I was just responding to why you would want a camera that sees better than the human eye. I'm not really up on digital photo tech.:)
A large-format camera also "sees" better than your eyes. The advantage is that you can blow the print up larger without any discernable loss of detail. You also have more fidelity to waste in processing without having to sacrifice quality.

A signifigant portion of the IRA's funding comes from within 20 miles for where I sit. Good ole Boston, MA.
No way. The best sports movie ever made is, of course, "Slapshot".
You mean some kind of Contenet Scrambling System? Yeah, then we'd really be screwed. ;-)
Right on. WebMD/Envoy use PGP to accept claims electronicly via FTP, for example.

This is on Mozilla 0.9.9 (Linux) - it doesn't give rendering time though. Hope this helps
I think Lotus Notes has most of these features.... the only problem is that it is probably the crapiest email client I've ever used.
Can I get a whoa mutt?
No, no, the best one is the one that says "I sell meth to your honors student"

Yeah so was the Savings and Loan bailout of the 80's and look where that got us...
The makers of Shadowrun would agree with you.

How about HoL - Human Occupied Landfill
