I almost exclusively pay with $2 bills. I go to the back every few weeks and get about $400 worth, and just pay for most things with them, or a credit card if the value's quite high?
Why? Mostly, for the expression I get from the counter staff:
"Two dollar bills? Cool! Oh... damn, where do I put them in the till?"
Sometimes they go into the clerk's pocket, after being replaced with more 'common' bills:)
I was looking at the data sheets for the two versions of the N-Charge.
They're both pretty light on details. But... at least the Series I data sheet gives you dimensions and capacity (in watthours)
The Series II datasheet only has the dimensions listed with the optional expansion pack, as a footnote on the bottom of the 2nd page, and no charge capacities at all. It's almost as if they're embarrassed to state anything. It's not a 'data sheet' at all.
Yeah.... the slashdot interface is a little daft in that regard. There's NO indication that a post is in fact replying to a screened/hidden post, rather than the 'visible parent'.
One needs to, onceself, say "okay, that response doesn't make sense, perhaps I should click 'parent' to see if it was in response to some OTHER post.
Just a little indication of "in reponse to hidden post" would alleviate a LOT of confusion.
Well, I thought the Home edition was fixed at using DCHP, and most home routers nowdays (the wired or wireless variety) have DHCP servers. Certainly a lot of businesses do. So... what's the problem?
And, the flaw in YOUR argument is you're stating that by simply working harder, you'll get paid more.
That might happen over time, through raises and bonuses, etc., but if one percerives one is ALWAYS going to get paid less for the same work, the natural response is to say "fuck it, I'm just going to work as much as my remuneration suggests."
What you actually need is a function that flags 'this is the right answer', and then you just read off the inputs.
For example, with a sufficiently large QC, you could find an input that matches a particular SHA-256 input INSTANTLY. Ie, "Give me the input where the output is equivalent to this hash".
I've been playing around with mod_fastcgi myself. Gives you the same advantages as mod_python, but it guarantees to be running in a different process space, which I quite like. There's pure-python client implementations available.
You'd need to use mod_python if you were intending fiddling with the apache internals, though, but for simple web apps, mod_fastcgi works great.

In that particular case, probably zero. Most, if not all hashing algorithms are generally geared to guarantee that a simple, single byte change or addition to the file will not result in the same hash.
Sure, it's far more convenient to have an external mouse, and I carry one of those little Kensington cord retractable (and more recently, a wireless) mice in my laptop bag for that purpose.
But, sometimes, I'm using the Powerbook in a situation where there's no suitable surface for the mouse (such as a vehicle seat, or a waiting lounge), or I want to use the computer so briefly there's no point connecting the mouse.
So... I just use the trackpad. And, a lack of a 'right button' is totally of no consequence. I can switch from 'right-click' to 'ctrl-click' with no problems whatsoever. However, I HAVE Found that, when using a PC, locating the different position for the left and right buttons to be a little awkward. I MUCH prefer Apple's decision on this.
Because 802.11n takes advantage of spatial multiplexing to increase throughput, and that requires multiple antennas.
The OTHER way to increase throughput is making the protocol more efficient (which 'n' does, as well, which is why belkin is claiming a 600% increase, rather than a 200% increase), or increasing the utilised spectrum (which 'n' does not do).
Because all the intervening letters are taken up by other protocols, or proposed protocols, not just wireless speeds.
For example, 802.11i is an enhanced security protocol, 802.11x is also security related. There's a bunch more.
Some of the letters are explained here. Still lots of gaps, but they likely fall under the 'proposed protocol, noone's bothered implementing it yet' category.
That was the whole idea behind TCPA. EVERYTHING in the audio and video stream is encrypted, all the way to your speakers and video display. If the bits inside the file say 'do not allow this to enter the analogue domain', then the last piece of digital TCPA hardware in the stream will say 'no, I refuse to send an unencrypted stream to the next device'.
Of course, that doesn't stop you putting your microphone in front of your speakers, or videotaping the screen on your display, but neither of those are attractive to just about ANYONE.
So EA has the exclisive rights to produce NFL branded games for 5 years. Who cares? Who the hell plays sports games anyway... I'd much rather play the SPORT than either watch the sport, or play a game based on a sport.
Now, if you can dress me up in a real varia suit and let me go rolling around San Jose blowing up parking meters, then you can get me off this console:)

Ah, no, when describing a lack of options, you still use the plural sense. Viz:
I have no oranges.
I have one orange.
I have two oranges.
All your oranges are belong to us.
Stop? You have to be kidding. This is classic grammar-drama (gradrammar?) right here!

1. Claim $(OBJECT) is on the 'tipping point'
2. ???
3. Profit!

Even CRC32 works this way, too.
Logicboard repairs are usually around the $300-$400 mark.
I have that EXACT problem with Camino 0.8.2. FLipping font sizes fixes it.
I must disagree with this.

Funny you should mention that... a few days ago the company I work for got some Fax Spam trying to promote Infinium's OTC stock.
Looks like someone was desperate to prop it up enough to get out.
Except that file transfers SIMPLY DONT WORK :)
Not that I'm really complaining. I'm getting my money's worth, plus some.
No, but you need a tool to care!

The sometimes-used "telnettoport80" browser also seems to be unaffected, but I think it depends on how autonomous the wetware rendering engine is.
I'm running Camino 0.8.1 as well, and I repeated the vulnerability. So... Camino isn't immune, just you are :)
