Quirks and Quarks, a science program on CBC Radio One, used to have a series called The Bugs That Love Us about all the various little bugs, mites and nits that believe we are their homeland. Definitely not for the squeemish!
I checked to see if they had any archives of those shows. No luck, but I did notice that they support Ogg!see, see, look! Even with a (what's Ogg?) link to vorbis.org. Cool.
When I do a search on Google, the little ads on the right are frequently for Toronto area businesses, and usually relevant to my search. (Hell, I get google.ca when I type google.com unless I force it not to.) They're probably doing it via IP address rather malware or cookies, but since they do provide local targeted ads, they're right to be concerned that this law is too broad.
Sometimes there's a quicky way to get a blink-code from from the "Check Engine" idiot light. Dodges used turning the ignition key off-on three times, others need a jumper in the engine compartment. Armed with the code, Google or browse a Chilton's at the bookstore and look it up.
It's not as detailed as the full interface, doesn't cover all problems, but it's nice to know the "Check Engine" isn't signaling 30 seconds to warp-core breach.
Those are the keys with RFID tags, right? That security by obscurity won't last forever. The panic reaction when that happens will naturally be to ban access to RFID technology for individuals, consultants and small companies.
Ahhh, but that would be missing an opportunity to hack the system! Many of the places that insist on Word format resumes simply toss them, unread by humans, into keyword search software. If their software isn't very smart (safe bet), it'll probably search the hidden text too.
I don't like to include all the damned names and TLAs of every product that I've used in the human readable text of my resume--looks like hell--but why not pile in all the keywords that their poor software is scanning for into hidden text?
That's why I routinely flush the Word copy of my resume (for places that insist on it). No history switched on that I can see, but the damned file keeps growing!
Not that I have anything to hide in there, of course. It's just highlighting and customization, yeah that's it.:^)

I hope that when the spies install this, they don't install spyware too. (Erm, other spyware.)
Message from the remaining bugs on your keyboard: "That which does not kill us, makes us stronger!"

It couldn't have impressed you very much, or you wouldn't have gone SWTPc. :^P

Where were they? Lobbying for it in some cases.
My sympathies. It's a scary place for me, and I'm used to it.
Trumpet, bah! Two words: Bag pipes.
And here. (Loads of places actually.)

While I think that the idea was insulting, I welcome the chance to meet Swedish women who need work done, on their cars.

* I remember when it was Godwin's Rule. The DejaGoogle archive is patchy about the reason for the change.
This idea is a hold-over from rules before countries (including the US) brought copyright laws into line with the Berne convention.

Commando Cody, Sky Marshall of the Universe is definitely in its ancestry.

Okay I think I've almost got it. CTRL-C is cut. CTRL-V is paste. But which key is "file off the serial numbers"?
Really? Why is that a good thing?
I thought the main bad guy in the Rocketeer was Errol Flynn... ;)
How about The Rocketeer? That seemed to fizzle.
Yes, I placed it right after I posted. (D'OH!) Then I was trying to find a site that had a sample.
Pretty cool, but they really need their own music rather than stealing it from .. Wrath of Khan?
After that, they'll send some trolls and oliphants on tour to do: Stomp
In case of Bilbonic sickness, take this to forget. It's by L. Ron Hubbard and will make your brain throw up.
