Well that's actually a great question for the legal types (you know them they preface everything with IANAL).
If it were a criminal case (as I understand US law) you SHOULDN'T have to prove it was someone else, just introduce the reasonable doubt that it was actually you. A dynamically assigned address and an open wifi introduce a lot of doubt.
It's up to them to prove you did it. This unfortunately isn't a criminal case (yet!).
I started to read your post, but then I realized how absolutely rude it is to not use ANY paragraphs. Easy for you to type, impossible to read. Please.
So I skimmed to the end, and all I could hear in my head was "I have a dream...."MLKjr.
See if you are as successful as he was (although posthumously).
"It scares me how much they are willing to curtail everyone else's liberties in order to suport this witch hunt which allegedly is supposed to help the children.
Like the racist War on (some) Drugs? (if it's not racist, why isn't Rush Limbaugh in jail?)
Very scary indeed. I'm just waiting until US authorities start arresting people who run sites in foreign countries because they accepted logins from Americans."
Like say, for example, Marc Emery from www.cannabisculture.com (Canada)? (Arrested for selling seeds (legal in Canada) to Americans by mail. (facing possibly life in prison for weed seeds)
Tomorrow is today my friend, it just (perhaps) hasn't touched you directly yet.
"I can think of a lot of processor intensive tasks that take longer than 24 hours to complete, and I *really* do not want to see any instability while they are in the middle of running. Are my expectations out of line here?"
Not to point out the obvious here but:
If your lightbulbs are not lasting 6 months, there is something other than the bulbs wrong.
Perhaps your wiring is not de-energizing the bulb's base (neutral switched instead of main?)
You may want to have that looked at.
I just replaced my very first CF this week. Was in my bathroom for 4 years+
May be worth checking out.
You sir, have never heard MY dad sing.
Gotta stop going to that other site.
I swore your comment said "When you are an a hole, stop digging."
And I was ready to agree too

"again"?
Ok now I've stopped laughing. Carry on.

It's decrease.
:1 and higher range If I am not mistaken)
Diesel engines have VERY high compression (ever hear a jack brake on a truck?) (in the 14-18
Gasoline (and alcohol) explode (detonate) unpredictably at these compression levels (engine knock)
Remember there is no spark introduced in a diesel, it's the compression that ignites the fuel/air mixture.
Today's (low octane, no lead) pump gasoline will start to detonate at around 9.5:1 compression in reasonable ambient temperatures.

Perfect timing!

Just in time for the coin toss
Thanks mate.

Are those really your wife's kids names?

Only on slashdot:
Favourite box = a computing device.
Everywhere else a favourite box is surely meatspace.
(mine still came from China, so I guess shouldn't talk here)
I was about to disagree with you but..... I R'dTFA (damn)
.01 to be released so y'all can ditch all the 'nanny laws'
Now I am upset that there ISN'T a diebold hack to fix the reults back to accurate
(either side. ALL I WANT IS ACCURATE)
Oh well. There is still potential for FREEDOM v.01 to be released.
After that I am really looking forward to PersonalResponsibility
ok time to put the pipe down, dream over.
"Sorry, Quebe-what?"
Bravo, mon ami. Bravo.
Mine lied to me, said it would have windows or some such.
All I see is this glowing screen that I can't see through.
must be lunch time in MODlaysia.
+3 for a (albeit sweet) troll?
Oh please, He used bitkeeper to commit the change.
Beautiful post mang.
I was with you until "In addition to that well behaved MTAs go to MXes in a predictable order. "
Wouldn't dns round-robin (and the distributed nature of dns in general) make the prediction of the order of hosts problematic?
Or would it be a matter of one server telling the next in order (no matter the starting point) to expect the spambot that just tried?
It seems possible (it is possible) just not extremely as straight-forward as you may have made it seem.
If you have more information on this, please do share.
oh that tagline........very good my friend.
I was about to attack 'learnt' (to see if you learn).
Thank you, it was I who 'learnt'.
Main Entry: learnt
Pronunciation: 'l&rnt
chiefly British past and past participle of LEARN
and me being Canadian that one I should have known.
Now if I only cared as much for grammar.....and puctuation.
"Karl Cocknozzle"?
editors? have you been trolled?
Well done.
I am sure this SHOULD be the new name.
When I was a kid there was a powdered soap called Boraxo (a quick check later and it appears to still exist).
Great stuff.
cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
is the spot for me on an Gentoo amd64 laptop
temperature: 48 C
for those curious as to it's output)
I think this should be modded up +5 funny.
(It was a joke right? I think it's text based no?)

A fellow Gentoo user I see
really? I compile at 800 mhz exclusively. bittorrent takes at most 5 minutes
Oh boy this is a great idea.
Three genus(es?) = os
Microsoft
Linux
MAC
species = app
ie
etc...
phylum = number (increment)
now here is the kicker: Microsoft will have a canary.
as the numbers will hit the MAXINT for a 32bit OS
