There is no "main" entrance with ports; just different ones. These analagies do not really apply to port scanning. Please stop. The phone lines are not a street. A computer is not a house.
Your school is not a company, like Cal-ISO. They've got tons of revenue for this. They buy their computers; they're not donated. This was simply a dumb mistake. This could possibly be the fault of a dumb sysadmin. Companies aren't always so good when selecting sysadmins.
The blank tapes are taxed for that very reason; as if people buying blank tapes have nothing better to do than record a show onto it.
Besides, aren't those broadcast companies owned by the same companies that own companies that make VCRs? Plus they have those annoying corporate guilds...
1. Can I hack the power supply?
2. How long does it take to put those damn electrodes on, and does it hurt like hell when you take them off? I don't want to have to shave my arms...
On spacegear #3,
1. couldn't a lot of this cause bacteria, et. al to become immune?
2. Studies have shown that children who grow up in ultrasterilized environments are much more likely to get asthma and allergies, since they do not have the resistance that kids with normal environments will have. Will this happen with silver ions?

I don't know... Harper's is a pretty respectable magazine.
hmm. I guess that makes a little sense, but with corporations ruling, it wouldn't be anarchy. Anarchy is a lack of rulers.
Also, punk is much more than just anarchy. Just being an anarchist doesn't make you punk. The labor strikers in the 30s who were anarchists were not punks. It's also not utopianism. Perhaps cyperhippy, although it doesn't have the same sound to it, would be more appropriate.
Could you tell me what a cyberpunk is? That really doesn't have anything to do with punk as I know it. I always thought cyberpunk was a punk, but he's got a computer or something. And this was not sarcastic, even though it probably sounds like it.
ok... fine. Let's say you're one of them. You always CAN go get a job then and leave them behind. Now about them. It's their perrogative to not work. They don't owe you anything. You can't make them work. Should they be forced to work , because it's your right as an American citizen to buy from them and have them produce? Or do they have a right to be lazy?
ok... lazy hours? They should be forced to work during those hours, because it's your right as an American citizen to buy from them and have them produce during those hours? Our do they have a right to be lazy?
So, if we don't like the way another country rules itself, we go and tell them how WE like it? Sounds like Vietnam, Nicaragua, Zaire, and a ton of other countries.
Why should we let the legislature decide with us? I would put money that a very large majority of those well-educated about the case oppose it.
And we should just subvert to them why? Other people voted for them, so they should tell us what to do? Everyone knows what's best for me? What about me?
Perhaps, with all the problems in Russia today likely caused by the switch, Russia should have still allowed big changes but switched to socialism. Sure, problems were rampant in Russia, but that does not nessessitate a switch to capitalism. That's like saying, that with campaign finances, we should switch to communism. No; it would be simpler just to regulate donations. You must go with the will of the people.
reminds me of a fake SNL commercial for this robot insurance to dupe old people out of their money.
"Most insurance companies offer NO robot insurance protection." We see a man attacked in his garden by rampaging robot. Fake Scientist: "Robots are very big and very strong. They can hurt you. When they grip you in their super-strong steel claws, they just don't let go." Old person: "I don't even know why the scientists make the robots."
"Information is the lowest level of thinking, as opposed to higher levels like judgment, interpretation, evaluation, or mastering great ideas," Roszak explained. "Take an idea like 'All men are created equal.' That's not information - it's a moral assertion about human equality. Information is what you get when you dial 411 to get a phone number: low-level factual data. My students can no longer tell the difference between reporting on something, and evaluating and interpreting it. That's critical thinking, and they're losing it." Roszak's greatest fear is that because most technology makes the work used in education easier and can even create the atmosphere of being fun, the idea of intellectual pursuit may become a thing of the past.
Yeah, but how does one gain insight or judgement? By learning vast amounts of knowledge. After learning information, you can think about what you know and pass judgement and assess the information. How does not being on a computer help you develop those skills? I use the internet to gather information on something I'd like to learn more about. If the information is opinionated; I try to get both sides. After gathering it, I think about it and pass judgement on it. The internet is just replacing a library in this case.
Damn straight. In my school, we have State Standards. You have to do 1 every year in every class to graduate. It interrupts actual learning so the state can send you busy work so they can decide if you work hard enough. Too much focus is put on achievement. No one seems to care about ME, MY education, or MY life. I hate the school. I get constantly harrassed because I have a mohawk. It's very demoralizing and my motivation is slipping. Soon I will be kicked out of the International Bacclaureate program for my bad grades. Often, I'll be helping a fellow student with something and a teacher will chastize me for it when the student is obviously not understanding what the teacher is trying to say. I'm not very much in control of what I learn. I'm forced to go to phy. ed (despite the fact I run track and play soccer) and health, which are a joke. I could be learning something valuable instead of wasting 1 hour of every day on it. They say that they do these things for my benefit; but why don't I get a say in my life? Can't I choose what's best for me? If I miss class; it is my own fault and my own loss. We can't even wear hats or coats on school property for fear of "gangs". Everyone knows what's best for you.

Combining DeCSS and Napster is either genious or really evil. It just depends which two sides you combine.

What if those people on your lawn were people who roofed your house and you never paid them, they're dirt poor and need money?

But thanks for explaining it.

Well, the MPAA vs. DeCSS went well. They even won in court.
