"This would mean that it is far greater than twice as much information."
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
We have the same class at our university. It's probably one of my favorite classes that i took here.
issues we discussed: -liability: if you write software for a heart machine at a hospital and the machine causes someone to die, who's responsible? You? The company? The hospital? -If porn is illegal in your community, and you buy online from somewhere outside the community, can the seller be charged with a crime? Should you be charged?
We also had several papers. Some were technical. I wrote a product review of XM radio and a paper describing how MPEG compression works. Other weren't technical at all. I did an essay on the Unabomber and his views on Technology.
Of course we also talked about the DMCA, MP3 swapping, Bill Joy's wired article on nano-tech, and Microsoft-opoly
>there are plenty of devices out there right now, like digital cameras, that produce JPG files. Personally I would like to see JPG replaced with a lossless format
great idea. maybe you can make something called TIFF, patent it, and then sue digital camera makers like Kodak, HP, Olympus, etc for giving you the option to save your pictures as TIFFs instead of JPEGs.
The only flaw in your brilliant plan is that an average TIFF file takes up about 5 MB instead of 500 KB so you can only store a few on each memory card.

Mandrake is using ntfsresize which is part of the Linux-NTFS project.
This is the project that contributed the NTFS driver to the Linux kernel
right....cause Linux software is written the right way on the first try, every time.

i know! how about letting microsoft embrace and extend HTTP and make a new protocol that they control.
they can start implementing it in IE and Windows first, then over time completely remove support for things like HTTP.
i think i just threw up in my mouth.
i'll be able to recompile my windows kernel
