"First they came for Napster, but I don't use Napster. Then they came for P2P, but I don't use P2P..... Then they came for a Charlie Pride CD, but I don't listen to Charlie Pride.And then they came for me, and no one was left to help"
I thought that the big dipper was a subset of the stars that makes up Ursa Major. Same with Ursa Minor and the Little Dipper...
Then again, it could be the crack.
I doubt it would work, especially as more and more machines are infected. You make the server reboot, clearing its memory. Then it gets scanned and reinfected, since it hasn't been patched yet. All you really end up doing is increasing the power bill for whoever runs that box.
Do you know that he won't act with his glasses on, and he's almost blind? And he can't get contacts for some reason. I am so glad I didn't have to do any sword fights with him!
Also, I always that it was intersesting that the only Scots in the movie (Sean Connery) was Egyptian.
Heh.
Remember, he wasn't _REALLY_ a god - just an alien who was able to control a human body, and just happened to have a "rejuvinator" machine.
"You have learned to harness the power of the atom" I believe was the quote regarding the Nukes.
Neat idea though.
I read a similar thing in a "HISTORY OF THE TELEPHONE" article someplace - sorry no link. Neat thing was that some Easter European countries were using their phone lines for something like what Mr. Bell had envisioned. If I remember correctly (not likely, to many 40's in my college days) the last one was dismantled in the 60's.
Hard to conceive of a phone as a radio. But hey, if it works...
"Only people with big bandwith can download it, so it won't be a problem."
Yeah, reminds of about 10 years ago -
"A whole CD takes up almost half their hard drives - they won't copy it"
"That song file is too large for their 28.8 Modem to download in a reasonable amount of time"
And look what happened.
I actually checked these guys out a little over a year ago. Their stockholder package covered most of the stuff in the article, but they also had a section on Military development. Basically they were using this as a HUD for the Airforce, and potentially the whole field of view for the pilot. That way they could enclose the cockpit with stealth tech and feed the image to the headset. But they said the device was the size of football helmet and wasn't fast enough for that yet...
I read an interesting article in the latest Popular Science last night (the one with the cover story about raising the russian sub that sank). It was about a professor at Amherst (bleh - go EPHS!) who believes that there is a correlation between infections and cancer. Anyway to make a long story short - he believes that natural selection will eventually provide children with grandparents, because children will rely on the care and wisdom a grandparent can give. Therefore, if a child doesn't have a grandparent, they won't be as successful. I don't know if I agree with this - but some guy with a book thinks so, so I figure I should mention it.
Nothing like sitting in your car for 1 hour while the 2mb connection transfers your files - that's if you're within 5 ft of the access point.
While boring it is still neat

I have always been impressed with the fact that man has been able to engineer a space station that is useful after almost double its life expectancy, even if it is smelly, dirty, and has the leg room of a chevette.

Damn, you've foiled COBRA's plot for a new weather machine!
GO JOE!
Ok this is what I know:
8:55 one Plane or missile hits tower
9:05 secone 727 Passanger plane hits tower
Eye witnessess are pretty sure the first one was a plane, but some believe they saw a missile.
2nd crash caught on tape because news crews came to cover 1st crash.
Not sure if it is navigational error or deliberate attacks.
All I know, and could be erronous - everything is the first hour into an event like this
"First they came for Napster, but I don't use Napster. Then they came for P2P, but I don't use P2P. .... Then they came for a Charlie Pride CD, but I don't listen to Charlie Pride.And then they came for me, and no one was left to help"
When mice became common, didn't someone say - "They invented the mouse to slow down the programmer?"
Or maybe it is just the crack.

Now we can get the view from the Goatse guy's perspective: A programmer vomiting on the keyboard

What's Louisiana's basis for a legal system and how does it difffer from common law?

I want a robotic Richard Simmons. Or a dog that barks killer bees. I can't make up my mind.

actually Sting sang "I want my MTV" on that single - notice that it is the same melody as "Don't stand so close to me"
I would say that "All your shares are belong to us", but we knew that already.
