If you use CDDB when ripping, then there's a good chance the ID3 tag will be identical. You are correct about the 'ripped by so-and-so' part, but again, a lot of people leave the defaults on there.
Ok, cool. But why would someone do that on a Saturday?
Actually, the virus started its dirty work Friday evening, when everyone has left the office, which gives it two and a half days to do whatever it wants to the machines it owns. In fact, its a bank holiday in Great Britain this weekend, so make that 3 1/2 days.
McBride proudly dumped two phone-book-sized binders of press clippings on the stage during his SCO Forum keynote on Monday as proof that his company had become more relevant in the high technology industry. SCO has issued 46 press releases since filing suit against IBM on March 7. Last year it issued only 29 press releases between March and August.
Holy fuck this guy has shit for brains. I wonder if Charles Manson used the same technique while he was on trial?
I don't doubt you. I am unfamiliar with US rank structure, but in Canada, UK, Australia and probably most other Commonwealth countries Sergeant Major is a position, not a rank. Maybe that's where the Marines get it from since they always try to distinguish themselves from the rest of the forces (also notice how they copied the new Canadian uniform in their latest BDUs). And I can assure you that at least in Canada there wouldn't be a change in pay grade when appointed to SM, pay is based on rank, time in rank, and whether or not you are a specialist (except for a few trades that are desperate to keep their staff such as pilot, doctor and dentist).
I've always been confused by the quantity of Sgt ranks in the US military although I suppose it is no diff than the quantity of General ranks in the Cdn military (4 to be precise, but they have actual names as opposed to the 'star' system used in the US).
newfoundland also has the fame of being the birthplace of wireless communication, as the worlds first wireless transmission across the atlantic was recieved on signal hill back in 1901, so maybe that was another reason as well.
And I'm sure that the fact that it's also about closest point between North America and Europe without getting your feet wet has absolutely nothing to do with it.
But thanks for the trivia. Now quit your lollygaging;-)
(Obligatory NitPick [TM]) BTW, Sargent major is an actual rank.
I've known a Sgt. with a last name of Major. That's the whole point of it. And Sargent Major isn't a rank, it's a position (at the company, squadron, regiment, brigade, group etc level).
So what's the difference between this an traditiona DB-stored procedures?
Stored procs are tied to the database, and some would consider this a violation of MVC. Ideally a well implemented business logic separate from the DB will allow you to change databases with minimal code rewrite.
Oh shut the fuck up! I live in apartment 11, and to buzz me on the intercom, you have to enter 1011, which also happens to be eleven in binary. Whoooopdeeedooooo! (true story).

So, it's not only slow as molasses in Antartica, it's actually even slower?
Where do you get off saying this? Java hasn't been slow in ages. Repeating what others have told you is not the same as basing your opinions on fact.

Remember Max Headroom? Max only occupied about 64 MB of RAM
Then why do we even bother with Microsoft Agent? At least Max's electronic voice is forgivable.
Memories of the phrase "bend over, here comes your warning order" start flashing in my head. Thanks :-P
May I also recommend DOM API. They are even making an effort to make sure Safari is supported (once Apple sticks in a bloody debugger).
Thanks for all the responses! You've shed a lot of light, on heat.
Isn't it cold enough in space already? What benefit is gained?
So, does it have the latest JDK installed? Looks like they took matters into their own hands.
My grandfather who's 87 years of age now logs on to the net - updates norton, then heads to Microsofts update and patches the system.
I'm sure that at age 87, there's got to be about one million things I'd rather do than be updating Norton and getting the latest Microsoft update.
Or perhaps being a First generation American - my family might be a bit smarter than the average american.
Nah, just more snooty.

A world wide power grid mean that the whole world is connected with one power grid.
Mensa member, beware of stating the obvious.
One country could e.g. try to suck all power out of the grid to black out an opponent and make a preventive strike against them.
No, that would be an offensive strike. There is no such thing as a preventative strike, only those who strike first.
I think I dodn't have to point out further how dangerous this would be.
You're right, you dodn't.
Mensa member, beware of the high IQ
Mensa member, beware of the grammar.

What, like Aluminium?
Boron.
Since the 18th July to be precise.
Ahh, cool. Hehe, thanks.
I'm not a an avid Linux user (although I have a Madrake box up and running). Could you enlighten me on what is special about the above post?

Anyhow, thanks for the clarification. Cheers!

And those of as that are not insensitive clods feel left out by your suggestion.
Ok, someone who allegedly was in the Army ought to know how to spell "Sergeant Major"
I bow my head in shame. I'm French-Canadian, but that still isn't an excuse.

Its Major Panic, BTW. Here are some other popular ones:
- Major Disaster

- General Chaos
- General Dissaray
- Major Disorder
- General Motors
- General Electric
- General Mills
- Coporal Punishment
- Corporal Feliac (think about it)
- Major Minor
- Sargent Major
- Private Parts
