"A Moblog is usually a website which displays photos you send from your camera phone, but you can use the same site to automatically send and post photos on the web"
128 meg stores just over ninety minutes of 192kbps/44kHz MP3. The article says this will be mostly used for independant artists who don't care about sharing their live music, so I guess Rush, Yes, and the Rolling Stones aren't an issue. But the Grateful Dead (who I believe allow recording) couldn't fit a show on there.
Hmm... USB keys with little bears on them... or perhaps a "combination" keychain/pipe!
Heh, seems funny but one time I saw a priest hold up something and say it was a piece from the actual cross. I almost jumped out of the pew demanding to put that under armed guard since some commoner shouldn't be walking around with that, but yeah I'm sure some street vendor in Rome suckered him into it. Hope he didn't pay too much.
As if pictures can't be doctored and are absolute proof....
Yes, let's go to the trouble of getting permission from a foreign government to climb a mountain, then take ten guys with heavy camera equipment up there, risking our lives. We'll then take a few background snow and rock pictures, fire up photoshop on our laptop while we're up there, and fake a picture of the Ark.
I'm glad people are starting to come around on this. Certs can be gained with a few weekends of crash courses, but degrees by their nature take a lot of time. Plus degrees last longer credibility-wise... what sounds better: a Windows 2000 Server/MCSE cert or a Masters in Info Sys Technology earned in 2000? The first is getting close to useless now that Win 2k3 server is out and everyone is moving to Linux anyway (or should;) ) while the second is still good because it isn't so limited in scope.
I've always said a portfolio should be worth much more than a cert, but then again I'm not a hiring manager.
Maybe. But given the two formats are for such completely different purposes I fail to see how this is relevant. PNG is much more obviously a competitor for GIF than for JPG.
This happens every year... fees from the Patent Office are often grabbed for budget-balancing purposes. When this gets out of committee it'll be the same thing... fees that could go toward hiring patent examiners, better automation, etc will be siphoned off to pay for studies on the mating habits of daffodils or something.

True, which is the nature of the discussion and I'm confused as to why I'm getting modded down.
the world being round is pseudo-science. Ah how later discoveries can change things.
Yeah, but I need a multi-platform option.
Solver is the only thing keeping me with Excel... I couldn't find an equivilent in OpenOffice but hopefully it'll be there one day.
Should security updates only for worms be made available to pirated users
We can pirate people now? Cool... how do I burn me a Britney?

Kudos to /. for recognizing that PATRIOT is an acronym... you rarely see it properly noted as such.

I expect higher quality April Fools jokes from the /. crowd... oh well, day ain't over yet.
You insensitive clod.
They were balls tested against aquatica, which means by definition there is going to be shrinkage.
Maybe if the nanoparticles were even smaller, they would just pass right through the aquatica and not hurt them.
A white paper on IE vs Mozilla FireFox?
Original post didn't have the link to the article, so the dollar amount is close enough.
Should say "With the contribution, Allen will have given $25 million ($33.32 million CAN)"

Nah, they're already masters at shooting the bull.
