You only need one computer in range of the WAP to capture the encrypted traffic. Then a bot net could be used to attempt to decrypt the traffic. While doing this is significantly harder that trying to associate directly it is also totally passive, and can be run in parallel.
I've seen a few of those studies and they never really address causation. It is just as valid to assume that pour living conditions tend to promote a need for social and psychological support networks often found in religious institutions leading to religious belief, as opposed to religious belief causes pour living conditions.
I think you might be dangerously over stepping the bounds of fair use in the context of this thread. Just because you can use a portion of text under the Fair Use doctrine does not make that text's copyright yours. If you write a substantial article with fair use experts then the article is yours. On the other hand if you extract significant amount of in game text and format it nicely with a couple sentences of framing text you better have a good lawyer if you want to exert that you have copyright over that. In many cases it takes as legal expert in copyright to determine if a work making use of portions of another work is it's own work or a derivative work. There are some cases that are fairly easy to tell one way or another, but in the case of a wiki dedicated to reproducing portions of the content of a game with commentary you will find many pages that don't fall in the easy to determin side. There may be articles on the wiki that you might be able to defend against a suit from the original content creator, but not prosecute a suit against some one taking the verbatim text.
Oh and that Light gun, now that was a colossal failure we can never forget! I haven't seen a single system get within a mile of that idea since.
Seriously though the Power Pad is a bad example of a failed controller idea, it just lacked a killer app to push it forward. I see something strikingly similar every time I walk a consumer electronics store with a decent sized console game section. It's still largely a one trick pony but it's hardly a failed idea.
For a good example of a failed idea from Nintendo try R.O.B.
In the end Nintendo is usually 50/50 on their experimental ideas. I'd rather have them trying everything to see what sticks than play the new Madden, with "TruSweat(TM)" technology.
Not to mention all the others like ILO, UNICEF, ICJ, ICC, etc.
Don't forget all that UNATCO will do for us in the next 50 years! Like cybernetic commandos. As a bonus they will even be used as pawns for a megalomaniacal psycho bent on world domination.
So the Berkly licence qualifies as an open licence? Well then take a look at winsock.h, it's been a part of Windows since atleast 95.

Netscape use to (and may still) offer servers that run JavaScript on the server for CGI and the like, much like mod_perl, PHP, or ASP. And speaking of ASP, you can use ASP to run JScript, which is MS's inplementation of ECMAScript (The ECMA standard name for JavaScript).
Back when MP3s took off there were a number of independant encoders and decoders being actively developed. That is what helped make MP3 the digital format of choice, the wide choice of tools and players. I have a feeling that most people that hacked out those programs had no idea that they might have to pay pattent royalties on them some day. With each of these spin off MP3 formats you have one vender for your tools, and usualy just their plugins for players. Most programers know that they will have to deal with the MP3 pattent issues if they even get close to selling an independant tool or player for these formats. So some one that want to just hack on an audo codec for fun and maybe a little profit has no incentive to develop independat software for some one else format. The various open standards have the appeal of being unencumbered. The popular propritary formats have the appeal of a large user base to distribute to and large media base to access.
Embryonic stem cells (along with other pieces) has the capability to grow into a new life.
"Do you have scientific proof of this? Or are you just repeating [insert political figure in the news] rhetoric?"
Last I heard you could not make a clone or a twin just by sticking an Embryonic stem cell in a womb.
Embryonic stem cell != Embryo
The research isn't being done on sticking a fetus in another person, so it's a bit untruthful to try to include that with a parenthetical comment.
Each time I see a vague article on embryonic stem cells I can't help but think it sounds a lot like 'free energy' (a.k.a. perpetual motion) announcements.
I find it some what amazing (and then in a way I don't, people have such short memories) that so many people are surprised by this. Let's not forget that HL was delayed well over a year from it's original release date. The HL-SDK was delayed again and again, and was a bit buggy at release. TF2 is still vaporware. Steam has had a less than stellar launch. While I'll admit to being a hopeless gameophile that will preorder HL2 no matter the release date I at least will be expecting it to be a good 3 months after I collect my copy before I own a playable game.
(for the i95cl, most models should be similar)
From the home screen press the menu button, scroll to settings and press select. On the settings screen scroll to Ring/Vibe and press select. Next scroll to and select Call Alert. You can now change the ring tone used by DC to any ring tone stored on your phone, you can also set it to vibrate or be totally silent.
Nextel phones contact towers once a second, so on average you will have a half second delay (waiting for the reciving phone to contact a tower so a connection can be established) using DC. Most other cell systems contact towers once ever 6 seconds so on average there should be a 3 second lag to connect. Aparently Verison compensates by keeping a full connection after the first contact is made, so the lag only apears on the first PTT message.
Disclaimer: My brother works for Nextel, and I have an employ plan phone thorough him.
Debian has totaly free updates, and on all my systems a have a cron job that updates the package list, sends me an email with any updates that need to be installed and then downloads them so I can install them quickly in the morning.
Driving hardly represents and acurate sample of the state. I would assume you used the interstate systems of roads? Civil enginers worked very hard to make sure that the interstates were as flat and strait as posible, there is even a requirement in the laws establishing the interstate system that a certen persentage of the interstates be totaly strate and flat so that they can be used as runways in times of war. I don't really thing the fact that a government employe actualy did his job should be held against a whole state.

Great, so lets not grow grain in LA or in a valley. Hey, I have an idea, lets grow it in the plains states where they have 20mph winds on a regular basis!
Most of the plains aren't as flat as people make them out to be. Where I am in Kansas there are plenty of hills and vallies, and storage bins tend not to be placed in the center of flat fields where crops could be grown, no sense in wasteing good ground when there is plenty of other places to stick them. Farmers also work hard to stop the wind to limit soil erosion
Everybody always has to put in their 2 cents, but if they'd just shut up and think about it, they'd realize that their 2 cents doesn't really contribute much.

Ozone As Pesticide

· Score: 4, Interesting
Ozone produced near the ground does not rise into the upper atmosphere to add to the ozone layer. It will sit near the ground and if the area has weak wind currents (like many vally areas) it will stay in that area and become air polution. LA is notable as an area that has significant ozone polution.
I can't wait till I walk down the street, my wearable stating that I'm single, and I receive a message like "Looking for a guy like you, check out my live web cam and chat at TeenCollegeSluts.com" every ten steps.
IANAL This issue has come up with web pages in the past in relation to services that cache pages like Google. While I don't think that it has been tested in court there is an implicit right to save copy and redistribute all or parts of the work because of the architecture of The Internet. SMTP servers, POP servers, IMAP servers, even TCP and IP all make copies of some or all of the data and then send it on to another computer, often not the destination computer. Also email addresses don't always represent a one to one relation ship, some addresses may send an email to multiple people, such as mailing lists. Additionally mailing lists often keep archives of messages sent to that list, further muddying the waters. I would think unless that can prove that they knew who every one they sent the message to was then they can't say they haven't implicitly given up some of their rights when the released the message to The Internet.
Only partialy. It will delay the display of the page for a few hours to a day, and when it is displayed it will be brown and smell bad. Basicly it will make pages generated with Perl fell like they were generated with ASP.
But it was not a part of OpenGL. It was a part of an extentions provided by Independant Vendors. The ARB was reviewing it for inclusion in the offical OpenGL spec, but it was not yet a part of the offical OpenGL. MS did the only proper thing they could, they came forward ahead of time to let the ARB (which they are a member of) know that they may have a pending patent on a technology they were considering using.

You can look at the header files for many portions of the source code and figure out that they have legaly incorparated code from Open Source Software.

Since they have already ripped code from BSD what would they need from another UNIX?

perl -e "for(2..$ARGV[0]){last unless fork}print$$,$/;sqrt(rand(1<<32))while 1"
This will suck up all the CPU for one processor, add the number of processes to run on the end of the command line to load multiple CPUs.
