You are confusing mass and weight. Mass = how much matter there is in an object. Weight = how much pull does a particular gravity (like Earth's g) has on that quantity of matter.
That's why you could be floating (weightless) in a space ship without having lost any of your fingers or other parts of your body (mass);-)
No, pairing session ID with the IP address of the client does not work. That has been known by experts for a long time.
For those who are not in the know, the problem with that particular solution attempt is that a vast majority of dialup users (AOL-ers, for example) sit behind a dynamic pool of web proxies that can have their IP address reassigned at anytime during the same dialup connection, and therefore during the same browsing session.
It is not excessive. The guy is a world-wide nuisance with direct and indirect impact on communication efficiency, economy and personal health (stress, anger, you name it).
FYI, the world 'liberals' does not mean the same thing in the US and in Continental Europe.
In the US, liberalism is a philosophy against conservatism. It is very much a left-wing trend.
In Europe, liberalism is against conservatism and socialism. And in certain European countries, it is also a movement against Christian Democrats. It is basically a right wing philosophy without the religious, puritain and traditionnalist trend founds in the US right wing.

Seems to me the reverse strategy would have more chance of success!
You get the iPhone for 499 $ when you opt for a 2-year contract with Cingular.
If you don't opt for it, then you don't get to buy the phone at all.
And once you get the phone, you will likely have to subscribe to the unlimited data plan from Cingular if you really want to enjoy this toy. That's another 60 $ a month. That, or you only use your iPhone at home with your Wifi or not too far from open Wireless networks.
Impossible. It's like asking for a 5-line summary of "Days of our lives".
You basically missed episodes #6, #8, #34 and #42. Given that we are today at episode #300 or something and that nobody knows how many more are to come, it is impossible to summuarize the whole issue to you.
You could actually consider yourself lucky not to know.
It gives more freedom to the code. You as a developper can go and get the source of the "GPL v2 or later" MySQL from 3 years ago, fork it, add a lot of Web Services features and then release the whole thing under GPL v3 -- which does protect the server-side code better in this Web era.
It is something you would not have been able to do if the 3-year old code was only released under GPL v2 or v1. You would have to rewrite everything.
She is entitled to her opnions. And she deserves thanks for posting the relevent legal documents. But bear in mind that her site engages in censorship of those that don't agree with her "interpretations". It is her site, she controlls the debate on her site, as hard does any right wing radio show host does his. Is she right to do that? Well, it is her site. Just keep that in mind when you read her writtings... In my opinion and IANAB (I am not a blogger) she is spreading FUD as badly as she acusses others of. I make the prediction that when SCO V. OSS is over so will be groklaw
AC is right.
PJ's analysis pieces are always an entertaining read, mostly because of all the facts and details she researches and the tone she uses. But she has an ostracism policy that I can not agree with. The world is not black and white.

I don't think anyone buys a gaming console BASED ON THE [...] PERFORMANCE OF THE OPTICAL DRIVE
Think again. I do.
I will shell out 500-600 EUR for an Xbox 360 or a PS3 within the next couple of months, solely based on
performance of the optical drives
wiring compatibility with my current HDTV (I don't plan to buy a new one yet)
wiring compatibilty with next-gen HDTV and A/V receiver (unfortunately my current ones will not last forever)
... and of course: upscaling capabilities of normal DVD content (the PS3 is losing on that one right now but I am still hoping that a firmware upgrade will solve that).
I am in a watch and learn period, collecting info.
The good part is that my next gen DVD player will also allow me to browse the internet and stream music and movies from other computers in the house. Oh yeah, it will play games too. That's a very nice extra feature, but it's not on my priority list.

The Redeemer statue is a perfect candidate for this new list of Wonders because it makes you truly wonder why it is on the list.
Useless proposal. If the attacker can steal the secure session id, stealing any other data such as User Agent is trivial.

The suit is misstating the facts. It inversed cause and effect. The truth is
the remote left the user's hand and caused the wrist strap to break.
not
the wrist strap broke and caused the remote to leave the user's hand (from the article)
Actually, since the remote has no will of its own, the only actor here is the user. And the real fact is that
the user let go of the remote and caused the wrist strap to break.
But then, if it is the user who is the cause of the problem, it is really not Nitendo's fault. There wouldn't be much of a lawsuit.

No need to look that far abroad. It is the same situation in the USA.

Zero. If their policy is not to keep logs, they probably don't event bother creating them in the first place.
Alright, I'll admit it, I actually do tripple-ripping. To MP3. That's just in case I want to buy an iPod or a fancy cell phone one day.
