You could attach multiple small cams to the wheels, balanced such that they don't affect overall stability, but do simulate bumpiness for the generators. Or get compression from the user pushing down on the pedals repeatedly.
What the GPL needs is sharper teeth for folks who think that the GPL is BS. Something along the lines of: "If you do not accept the GPL and distribute the program or derivative works in violation of the GPL you agree to pay a minimum of $5000 USD per distributed work to the copyright holder and cease and desist in distribution of the program or derivative works. This also applies if the GPL is found to be invalid or illegal in a court case in which you are a defendant."
I'm not upgrading anything. I've got the same machine I've had for five years and it works. I use it an hour or two a day and it never crashes because I don't try to develop on it anymore. I have no secondary machine of my own, that's a bonus of work. I even use it as a TiVO with my AIW Radeon, and that doesn't crash. When I need something that only works on a more recent OS, I can VNC to my office. I have gradually become a very very happy user. All I really need now that college is done is Mozilla, AIM, Abiword, and antivirus software.
Heck, my dad used an Osborne to telecommute now and then until 1991 and that worked.
The other moral, the one for google, is that they should tie DNS or whois information to websites and use that to reduce google bombing by people who's entire business plan is "get high on google".
With real lawyer, this could be the first class action suit regarding copyright infringement.
I just hope that if it did get class action status, that whatever lawyers were involved would get a fair judgement or settlement. This is the FSF's chance to shine.
Funnily enough, I hear more new (to me) songs on cable radio than anything else. It's the only source that satisfies both my hungers for bluegrass and death-metal (and everything else except modern country and pop).
I have Cox Cable, and the stations are great. No dj, not all popular stuff, the only downside is that I have to use the cable box and the tv to listen since they're digital signals. The ads say I can vote online to influence playlists too . . . musicchoice.com
Risk management involves not just probabilities, but probabilities weighted by how bad the outcome would be. So 1e-6 odds that a small part of Alaska gets melted and global cancer rates go up gives 1e-6 odds * 5e9 bad = 5e3 bad odds. I've based my bad scalar value on the fact that either getting cancer or melting would probably suck, but these things are always at least a little subjective. The point is it's all relative to your point of view on how nasty the respective possible consequences are.
What if I get an ad that's not linked to a term, but just happens to be pertinent? Why doesn't google just make a pool of words or terms related to a specific market and sell ads for when somebody is searching for any information about that market? It would be an easy way to show how dumb this ruling is.
Also, am I supposed to stop advocating Linux now every time somebody says Windows sucks? Am I too at fault for tying an ad to a trademarked word?
Because Linux is better. It's the same as Socialism taking a while to start up. Bigger (and thus better) things have more inertia, and take more effort to get going.
Name three things which could hurt Microsoft Linux, Socialism, and big rocks. Hi-oooo
That's why it's an excellent business idea. If they 'need' the support, they can 'buy' it. If they don't, they're still more likely to stick with cable over satellite. The only question is whether the average cost of capped internet average cost of lost customers - average gain from customers who might get cable just for always-on-but-slow-internet.
Well, guess what? marketing machines are about making money.
Guess what else? I, an artist, want my music to be marketed. So do most artists whether they're good or bad. I would only sign a deal with a recording company if they promised to market my stuff. I mean billboards, store displays, and (until it goes away) payola for the radio. I would also chip in by doing lots of interviews and public appearances. The whole point of selling one's own music is to make enough money to make music for a living.
Imagine who cool it would be if all the effort thrown into pirating the marketed stuff went into creating an underground force for marketing independent music?
Very cool as long as it would still make me enough money to live off my music.
Basically, it's very very easy to provide pages in customized languages if the browser is configured properly. Granted, switching mozilla's default language to german doesn't work with sitefinder, and if they don't speak german they must be evil, but it would be easy for verisign to set up . . .
Well, I am a Dali superfan and I can say that he was without a doubt one of the best painters of all time. Only Escher's optical illusions are comprable to Dali's, but Escher did mostly works based on geometry, while Dali worked more with raw creativity. Every one of his paintings has a double image, and in several there are multiple ways to percieve what you're seeing. Not to mention the paintings are on par with classical masters such as Michaelangelo, Da Vinci, and Van Eyk, which no other painter has achieved in modern times. He is sort of similar to Kandinsky, both wanted to show what was inside of minds, but partially thanks to the drugs and the boundless talent, Dali's haullicinations stayed away from complete abstractionism.
I've also heard that he made a bunch of live action movies too, but I've never seen any.
You've just got to be angrier to enjoy it. Pearls Before Swine is a perfect example of a comic that gets funnier as the reader gets bitterer.
And Zits can be funny occasionally, but jokes about a really tall teenager who eats a lot get redundant. Same for jokes about computer illiteracy, or a rare parrot that's actually a duck. (I don't know what Monty is)
But is this a bad idea for parents or gramdparents who might be sued for the actions of their young ones? I think that's who's really being targeted here.
Aspirin is a drug. Music can make your brain release drugs. Lighten up.
And to avoid the woes of this sourpuss, go to a small venue. $15-$30 tops. Chill environment. No weisenheimers. Where do you live? Near a major city? If so, there are several such venues nearby.
Concerts are a social experience. If you hate society, don't go.
Also, you can go to a concert and hear more than one band. Very often an opener will be somebody you've never heard of, but they will be similar enough to the headliner that you might like them. Other times it will be a random local band that only sells CDs at concerts. They're probably not on Kazaa.
Then there's the giant music festivals (Ozzfest, Merlefest, HFStival, etc.). Those're just fun (if you bring sunscreen).
You clearly aren't a musician. I hear music constantly. I've just got to be careful not to pay too much attention to it, so I don't smile and bob my head at funerals if the key changes to something happier.
And most of the time, my boss is a mix between the Rerun song and big band stuff. I myself am a sort of calypso polka hybrid.
Back when there were intermissions my grandfather would leave my grandmother alone halfway through Charlton Heston movies to go fishing.
I'm sure theaters wouldn't mind an opportunity to sell more snacks. Then again, there are so many jackasses now that most people would stampede in and out, everyone would lose their good seats, and people might get PO'd or hurt in the hubub.
Even if they do show that the GPL is unenforcable and their code is in the kernel, that would mean that they have no rights to any of Linux except their code. Everything else would go back to "all rights reserved" and they would not be able to license the whole shebang. Just their lines.

2) Proper enforcement of driving laws
I hope you've got a robotic army of policemen, because traffic cops aren't paid much and if they were paid well we couldn't afford many of them.
Or do you just want to put cameras on all the highways?
If they were smart, they'd just release an XBox emulator for Windows with XBox2. Or better yet, for Windows Media Center Edition only.
These things are puny! You could eat no sooner eat these than you could a goldfish (not the cracker).
I suppose they are also suing to regulate the consumption of sea anemones, from which the 'glow' gene comes.
And lets make sure that nobody's eating rocks or twigs while we're at it!

It's all a joke. Fraudster isn't even a british word, much less a real one. The word is Fraud or Con or something else that's in the dictionary.
On a side note, if you're terminally ill your voice is probably going to seem stressed from the fact that you're DYING, not LYING.
