And the final issue is rider skill. Riders who are self taught or taught by friends and family are over six times as likely to be involved in an accident. That's why the MSF came into being.
A pointless statistic. Have you considered that people who seek professional instruction are naturally more cautious? I believe there's a similar statistic somewhere that shows cigarette smoking lowers your IQ.
Anyway. When you're cruising down the highway at 140-150 mph or so, there's just no looking down at the instrument panel.
I guess we should just be thankful that you're on a bike, since when you finally wreck you'll cause a lot less damage to others than you would if you were driving an SUV.
Imagine you can pull up your date file an impress her with all the stuff you remember about her. Also you can have that poem there for you to recite that will rock.
Greetings - I am from the future. I brought with me a picture of you on your first date using this technology. Unfortunately you can see that your date has left the table.
That's a silly argument. Are you suggesting that nobody could code a virus within 4 weeks of an exploit being published? The four week window will just force virus writers to use more timely exploits.
If you think about it, there are some really intelligent spammers. They're always one step ahead of us and are figuring out new ways to spam us.
I think you're giving them too much credit. Technically, it's a lot harder to selectively ignore certain people then it is to yell at everyone. Staying "one step ahead" really isn't that difficult.

Isn't that only true for SmartMedia? I believe CompactFlash handles the mapping (and remapping) of sectors internally. The sectors the software asks for aren't necessarily the sectors it gets.
There is this thing called cryptography that meets the business need you speak of.
Wrong - cryptography doesn't keep your employees from forwarding your internal memos to whoever they want. Granted DRM doesn't keep someone from just retyping something, but it definitely raises the bar to casual copying.
If you can't stand up for what you say, then don't say it. And please do not run for public office. Let your "yes" mean yes and your "no" mean no. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
What a silly sentiment. Do you really think that nobody should be able to say anything in confidence? I find that ironic coming from someone posting pseudo-anonymously under the moniker "DickBreath". I'd recommend you don't run for public office either.
The point is that if the US gets into a war and that country is using satellite navagation technology - the US will do whatever it takes to shut it up.
Whether that means the EU temporarily silences the sats or the US shoots them down doesn't really matter to the US. Asking that the EU put provisions in that allow the US to locally jam Galileo simply means the US doesn't have to kill Europe's nav tech because the enemy is using it.
It's not bullying - it's just a way for Galileo to survive when we attack the next Iraq.
I abhor the lynching of any company when it isn't based on fact. Pick on Apple or Linux for the wrong reason, and you will get a response from me as well.
You must be some kind of.. uhm.. NetAvenger!!! Yeah, that's it.;)

You mean this?
That's great and all, but I have to ask: What the hell does that have to do with "Linux Predictions for 2004"?
The knees jerk so fast on /. whenever Java is mentioned, in any context, that I'm surprised someone doesn't have their eye put out.
You must have knees like Olive Oil.
They lost a *potential* customer by locking my platform out. That may be their biggest downfall.

Nah, I'm sure Wal-Mart will survive the loss of potential music sales to you.
I was going to email you and tell you your idea sucked, but since I wasn't on your list it bounced. ;)

Good luck with the reassembly of your brainpan.

Excuse me. Us good guys keep their wall safes behind paintings too you know.

Hello?? I wasn't planning on watching, but you convinced me.
Isn't that only true for SmartMedia? I believe CompactFlash handles the mapping (and remapping) of sectors internally. The sectors the software asks for aren't necessarily the sectors it gets.
Of course I could be wrong.
They don't like Linux too much or they wouldn't have canned Perens.

you might consider leaving off the Polish reference next time (unless you know something about their courts).
No, I don't think I would leave it off. Jokes are much less funny when they're politically correct.
If either party disagree with the verdict at the lower court they can appeal and get a new trial with more judges
Uhh - how in the hell would both parties agree with the first decision? Isn't that why they're in a court in the first place?
Are you sure that's not a Polish court system?

Shit, I've been using aluminum foil all this time. I must have looked like an idiot.

Ahhhh - thanks. This looks very interesting indeed...
You think 2.44 is ancient? Feh - Debian 'stable' is still stuck with 2.20.
