Come ON MAN! 4.5 GIGS of Pr0n in 15 seconds? Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
On a serious note though, why would we want to restrict the I2 to such a "Brave New Worldish" vision? You are entitled to your opinion, but your vision is quite disturbing. Why even bother? You forget that companies ability to make money, eventually will lower the price of connecting to it and web space. What if a child wanted to take a virtual real time tour through a Parisian museum, from his home in California? Woo...somebody needs their 2nd cup of coffee this morning.
these rumors from my uncle's best friend's wife's grandma's prison buddy McDonald co-worker ex-roomates son. What did it make it? Absolutely NOT reliable!
I'm crazy.sig hand man...I have a.sig for a hand. Now gimme some CANDY!
Yes, I believe that the articles over at HardOCP mentioned something about clocking them at 850 and having them be stable. Someone in the Slashdot article mentioned that these things may have been pushed out the door a little bit too premature.
it is from the bad press that they have been receiving from both Tom's Hardware and HardOCP. It is still better sucking up and dealing with the recall than blaiming it on other factors with hardware (**COUGH**M$**COUGH). Still it makes you wonder about their testing procedures, as it took the online mags to figure out the problems for Intel.
the Golden Rule. He who has the most gold, makes all the rules. Then came Napster who began drilling at the cornerstone of their gold pile. Will it topple the RIAA. Probably not, but damn that would be a good day.

I don't really understand this either. I mean DUH, if you are a native Japanese speaker you are going to go to a Japanese website. If you are a company that target's a particular country then obviously you are going to use that countries language. Just like Television, just like magazines, just like newspapers. Once again an article full of Sound and Fury, signifying nothing.
please explain the purpose behind this demand? How exactly does an ALT tag help Human rights and Equal opportunities? Should they do this on pr0n sites too? I'm confused? If you're blind does it really matter?
I think its more of the "threat" of litigation that the Judge is counting on. You're absolutely correct in saying that it is unenforcable. I do not think that Judge Kaplan knows what the internet is comprised of. Its more of a : " I dare you to step across THIS line...okay...I dare you to step across THIS line...okay...THIS line."
Good question! I was merely creating a farce on the product OF which is being discussed. Therefore my post was NOT offtopic NOR was it flaimbait. Sheesh. Sometimes I really have to question this system.
Completely agree. *Sigh*. You think we would have learned from common sense and thousands of cases throughout history that politics and religion do not mix. Nor should they. Witch trials, Spanish Inquisition, Crusades..list goes on and on.
There appear to be a lot of regulations as to how the cells are used? I don't know but IMHO, it seems like a waste as the article points out: "federal money could not be used
for the destruction of embryos to get the cells. That job
would have to be done by privately funded researchers who
could then pass the useful cells to federally supported
scientists, creating a separation of responsibility for the
embryo's destruction that opponents have criticized as
morally meaningless."
Politics at its best. The embryos are destined to be "discarded" anyway. What the heck is the difference?

No, you are half right. It has to do with Taranto...but it has to do with Tarantullas:
And I quoteth:
"The St. Vitus' dance became a real public menace, seizing hundreds of people, spreading from
city to city, mainly in the Low Countries, in Germany, and in Italy during the 14th and 15th
centuries. It was a kind of mass hysteria, a wild leaping dance in which the people screamed and
foamed with fury, with the appearance of persons possessed. In these convulsive, frantic, and
jerky dances, religious, medical, and social influences probably interacted in response to such
things as the epilepsy-like seizures of persons suffering from the Black Death. Italy was afflicted
with tarantism, an epidemic presumably caused by the bite of venomous spiders. Its effects had
to be counteracted by distributing the poison over the whole body and "sweating it out," which
was accomplished by dancing to a special kind of music, the tarantella."
Code it. There is a major customization problem with such a product for as you have mentioned each library would need to add a module based on what they currently possess/maintain (cd's, videos, microfiche). A simple database in SQL might also do the job with a PHP4 front web interface. Dunno...its up to the person that needs the sucker done.
You are a unique individual, just like everyone else.
True, but look at the medium of which this is being done on. The relative ease of use of this auction will allow for a buyer to purchase of a lot less cost than it would be to go through a regular physical auction. Its a lot easier to shadow buy at an online auction, due to the ease and anominity. A double edged sword that will undoubtedly be heavily scrutinized by the rest of the press.
Correct, only remember that Iraq's ability to do so has been closely monitored for the last decade. I would be more concerned over the instability of Pakistan and India with nuclear arms than any other hotspot in the world.
I think it is a pretty good idea to keep it online and in the open for all to review. Not only do you have to be an invited participant by the New York Nuclear Corp but also any purchase that is made is surely going to be monitored closely by the Feds . Only problem that remains however is who is to stop the buyer from just relaying the goods to another shadow buyer?
You are a unique individual...just like everyone else.
At the National History Museum (Smithsonian in D.C.) they have had an exhibit on computer technology for quite some time. Its really an intriguing walkthrough of the computer age up until now showing everything from Babage's machine up until the microcomputer. They seem to be constantly updating the exhibit (been there 2x in the last 4 months) so I am certain that there must be a nitch available for someone who knows there stuff.
Then there is no problem. They enjoy the site, have followed the site's rules and are getting their content's worth. Case closed.
There are NO laws that are being broken and only 1 person's name has been under scrutiny. It is a shame. They should fix it. Go elsewhere.
That is what part of my solution was: Contact the webmaster and threaten.
In response to your "large corporation site" problem, it would not happen. They depend on the public image because they are VERY well known sites. If a company that size were facing such a problem, I guarantee that the sites policy would change (as soon as it would hit one of the web's thousands of news places../. included). That is why I was merely stating that for a smaller website that comes a dime a dozen, it really is not worth the aggravation. This is afterall simply a naming convention.
Also is she really banned as the National Enquiresque title suggests? Could she not simple just initialize her last name if she truly wanted to be apart of the service? Man, some things are not worth the fight. (And for all others, there is beer).
I really don't think that this is too serious of a problem. This is NOT taking her rights for granted or any other of the whoopla that likes to get page hits here on/.
Your name is rejected. Here's a simple solution...GO ELSEWHERE. The website is obviously run by incompetent people who care more about posterity than content so why would you want to be associated with them anyways? Anyways, even in this case its not even about posterity, just a silly naming convention.
Regardless of whether its wrong or right it is still THEIR server. If you don't like it, write a letter to the webmaster once again stating why their convention is silly and explain why you will not visit their site (also mention that you will not encourage others to visit either).
Simply: They are incompetent. You have a choice. Exercise your choice.
Examine you in your present, for you may not exist in your future.
