Muslims are everywhere, and clearly most aren't going violent about this. But as usual, a few extremists can make a lot of people look bad.
Why arent the hoards of peaceful normal muslims out protesting about the minority that give them a bad name? Americans protest about George Bush, and we know that they aren't all 2 cells short of a brain (just the rednecks from Texas). Why aren't the peaceful muslims being vocal?
I wonder how hard it would be for MS to decide to scan your system for files with names matching those discovered on p2p networks.
Several options. I'm not a paranoid freakahholic so 1) Crack ssh key and log in via ssh from my work's subnet 2) Write some form of trojan that will break exim, apache or similar, and then manage to move from my server to my laptop 3) Crack apt-get upgrade
All of which is illegal in my country (although with #3 it wouldn't be a crime against me, but a crime against the owner of the repository (or somewhere furter upstream)
Jamie Kane had something to do with viral marketing, wikipedia and the bbc. Somebody created a message on wikipedia claiming that a top-40 singer had mysteriously vanished, in a tie in with some wierd bbc online game.
Any particular reason to choose Radio 4 LW over Radio 4 FM? The delay in adding RDS? Thanks in advance.
Nope, I doubt that the delay is less than the delay you'll get based on distance from the transmitter, however I don't really know much about that as the corporation I work for doesn't broadcast any more, we hire someone called "Red Bee Media", who send the signals to tranmitters owned by "Crown Castle". Only broadcast I've learnt about is digital (mainly DTT and DSat), and even then it's not a lot.
We (A national UK broadcaster) had a countdown clock (2 identical computers). It was linked from the corp's central ntp server (in turn via GPS), but generally it's a PC clock. Normal broadcast equipment runs off a time code generator that's slaved to GPS.
It wasn't far off the pips on radio 4 analog (ignore big ben etc) in the gallery.
After leaving the gallery, it travels down to one CTA, then another, then another, then gets split, and is sent via seperate routes to the main transmitter in Crystal Palace. Other regions outside London recieve their feeds via various routes.
DTT is sent seperatly, and the signal is encoded (with major delay) as a low bitrate (to the local transmitter), and a high bitrate (to nations/regions) which can be opted out of (I'm a little hazy on this bit).
Additonally DSat is encoded then uplinked to a satelite.
As a consumer, if you recieve digital there will be an additional delay in decoding.
The point is that the time might be fine in the studio, however it goes through a lot of equipment that adds a lot of delay, and different networks will have different delays, different equipment etc.
Now how do you line your studio up? Based on the studio output, the analog reception from a nearby transmitter, the analog reception from a 2nd or 3rd level slave, the digital reception from one of many different transmitters (each with different equipment encoding with a different delay), from satelite (with the 3/4 second bounce plus digital encoding), and how do you account for various decoders?
That's the problem for a normal new year broadcast. Add in a leap second (99% of equipment out there will not accept 23:59:60 as a valid time) and you've got even more problems.
In the UK the most accurate broadcast signal you'll get is the pips on Radio 4 LW.
If you want to know the real time, get a GPS system.
Yes -- Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:
* Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
* Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
* Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
* DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
* Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
* Contributes to soil erosion.
* Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
* Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
* Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
* Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
* Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere.
* Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

Just like the Americans and the IRA

This is why anyone that works in IT is treated like shit, because end users assume we hate them and won't do anything to help.
Well, to be fair...

So that narrows it down to pretty much any employee talking about any company?
