Jury nullification is mostly a myth. Judges specifically instruct jurors on the interpertation of the law, and do not allow anyone to mention the option to them. This has happened before and stood up on appeal, more than once IIRC.
I moved in my house about 6 months ago and got two "new" phone numbers. The lady that gave out the phone numbers was nice and tried to get us numbers in the older exchange for this area, rather than the newer one, that differs by one digit and confuses people.
Anyway, to the point, apparently my phone numbers have been held by at least the following:
Some stoners A very old lady Someone who signed up for ever spam offer out there.
I'm thinking the last two are probably one in the same.
The stoner's friends calls are the most annoying. I pick up, say hi, they say, "Hey bill I got the stuff", then realize they called the wrong number and freak out. This would be OK if these people figured it out the first time, but apparently, they are either very dense, or this guy had a lot of friends.
The other callers are very old people, I'm usually nice to them, but they take a while to get straightened out, and tend to ramble about who they were trying to reach.
Then there's the issue of the people that call my fax number.... over and over and over. You'd think the telemarketers and people calling the number would realize after several weeks that it was a fax machine, but no dice. Eventually I turned off the ringers on the extension and just gave up.
How would you know about wonderful products and proactive services like the Flowbee, spray on hair, loans that come in the form of prefilled out checks with 20% APR, "Space Bags", Taplights, "Internal Antenna" cell phone scams, Herbal Viagra, and many other things neccessary to survive in today's ever-changing marketplace?
Of course it was editor moderation, how else would it be decided if say 30 questions were rated score 5?
The editor just used overrated so they can still claim that they get metamodded 99% fair or whatever they claim, since those *rated moderations aren't subject to metamod.
It would be nice if it were that simple, but eventually people like you are going to piss off enough of the wrong people and Slashdot is going to be sued yet again for copyright infringement. It's not like LNUX is really rolling in money, those lawyers are costly to retain.

Speaking of, right now recycled Freon is legal but expensive, but virgin Freon is cheap, so the mafia is running illegal virgin Freon in the US, from news reports I have read.
Actually, I may be wrong, but I think the DishPVR 501 is based on a microsoft core, and I have gotten 7 hour recordings of a black screen before. That thing is buggy and slow as hell. At least the next DishPVR is linux based.
For a minute I misread the URL as overclocker shit out.com
Somepeople really need some help with domain names. It's like the license plates, COLGUY could mean "cool guy" or it could be something the goatse guy would get.
Interesting point, with two channels, 16 bit samples for each channel, there are a shitload of different silences. Just imagine a single sine wave, 1 minute in duration, 1/60th Hz. Technically not silence in the strictest sense, but not audible in any case. I bet some car audio bass freaks would argue with me, laws of physics never seem to stop them from arguing something.:)
I don't know how serious your post was, but assuming their DRM isn't based on security through obscurity, then putting the DRM on a track of all zeros won't give up any security.
However, considering the idiocy of the past choices in DRM and copy protection, who knows.
I'll just copyright white noise by releasing a CD with a one minute track of white noise. Then I can sue all the TV manufacturers and cable networks for royalties, after all, they are playing my works on hundreds of channels, 24 hours a day.
You can just send the emails directly to the destination server without sending them through a relay. The only way this could be enforced is to block connections outgoing with ports 25 destination, and force all mails to relay through the ISPs mail server, which sucks for people who legitimately make direct connections to mail servers (i.e. people that run local sendmails).
Be careful what you lobby for if you don't understand the implications.

You imply that it doesn't matter what you believe, and whatever works for an individual person is good.
Ah, you caught the subtle point, nice.:)
I'm not totally against religion, I'm glad it gives some people comfort, the same way I am glad that drugs give people comfort, or therapy sessions, or eating chocolate.
So my question to you, what makes your choice something that isn't arbitrary and meaningless?
For me, logic and observation makes things non-arbitrary and non-meaningless.
Slashdot Mirror
Obviously you've never smoked before.
Why is that obvious?
You remind me of the scene in Fear and Loathing where the Cop Conventioneers are learning why users call a roach a "roach".
Must have missed that part. All I remember from that movie was the whole white rabbit thing.
Havn't you ever noticed that half my posts are for the legalization of drugs and an end to this stupid drug war?
I don't smoke anymore, havn't for a while now, but I still think it should be legal.
I believe it was High court
In other news, the case lost on appeal on the grounds that the previous judge concluded the case quickly so he could go get some "munchies".

Or just substitute any clean oil, like mineral oil, which is very cheap for 5 gallons at a chemical supply place.

I believe this is because I asked God to help me and give me peace and reassurance, and he did.
Well, I'm glad you found something that worked for you. We all need something to believe in.
