monthly cost of car=C monthly cost of gas=G Difference =Y
if your gas bill is higher or about even than the lease payment (Y 0) then it may not be a good deal (you get the car at least) the real killer will be how much will the I HAVE CASH price be??
"sadly, some government departments institutionalise this ("all PCs must have anti-virus") which led to a spate of pointless "virus scanner" programs for gnu/linux with virus-signatures from the 1980's."
actually it does kind of make sense since you could have a Unix/Linux/Mac system be a carrier for a virus (also its becoming cool to provide a Live AntiVirus CD and most of them are Linux based)

me i wish you could get a standardized flash key with a dump of your records (can't access the main server just use the local copy) (not counting the pay us a couple hundred a year and we will include this neat flash key type services)
we needs to get back to the whole play science for the munchkins (where vinegar and baking soda are the worst chemicals they use) get more real as they get bigger (when they can add a chemical to a half full beaker of water correctly they can go beyond play stuff) by the time they are old enough for a "wand" they should be using fire and the more nasty stuff and by the time they are in high school they should be working with 3 liter kegs of Hydroflouric acid and other "fun stuff"
by the time they are of legal age they should be able to work out how to brew a keg and make their own fireworks (and know that combining these is a bad thing)
the car radio thing fails because its really that:
1 the head unit is part of the dash 2 you can take the face plate off but it will still work 3 several systems are designed to use hidden controls to directly operate the radio 4 even if you somehow cut the head unit out the next time you go in for service they will "For Free" reinstall the unit (and may in fact give you the newest unit) 5 the car does not work right even without the head unit because you have to use modified parts (or parts from a previous model) to get the car to start without the head unit
if there was a way for the data to be displayed on what stands to be an included (chances are #price rank of car#* 10%) display then even if its gibberish to a non mechanic then all i would take is a mechanic to see the display (maybe via cell phone pic) to advise the person from the "oh not serious come in when you are ready" to "STOP THE CAR RIGHT NOW IM SENDING YOU A TOW TRUCK" range.
Okay if it happens that say February 2010 rolls around and they don't have a release version ready i am sure that they will send a patch to extend the time limit as needed. and besides if you had read what microsoft wrote ON THE PAGE YOU HAD TO HAVE SEEN BEFORE YOU DID THE DOWNLOAD you would have seen

well i could see the math going
monthly cost of car=C
monthly cost of gas=G
Difference =Y
if your gas bill is higher or about even than the lease payment (Y 0) then it may not be a good deal (you get the car at least)

if you swing it right then they will consider you an oracle of wisdom and
1 let you eat your lunch while you ponder the problem
2 buy you lunch as an "offering"
3 not bug you during the next disaster

well lets see
1 salting: a number is added into the mix to jig the results (and this may not be a known number for a particular setup)
2 the password function itself is designed to be slow and the encoder works one way (no decode)
3 anybody that is running with passwords in the /etc/security/passwd is a complete moron (hint shadow is the correct name of the file) http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/understanding-etcshadow-file/
I wonder how the rules of "Spot The Fed" will change now that DEFCON is somewhat run by a fed????
and how exactly do you define "safe" procedures??

me i wish you could get a standardized flash key with a dump of your records (can't access the main server
just use the local copy) (not counting the pay us a couple hundred a year and we will include this neat flash key
type services)
or better yet a desktop/ server system with a fake drive rigged to go POP if it gets powered up
drive gets powered up and boom no more drive (bonus gitmo points if you manage to take out the work station)
One thing that bugs me is the "threat level" may go up to Red but never goes down below yellow
So here is my bet we will never see green until a third party president is in office.
winamp the 1.04 milkdrop and the 3d presets

we would have to run the line of succession until we found a person we could live with and then somehow take out a whole mess of stuff.
99.999999% of the battle plans include Seoul Korea as casualties in the first couple hours.
I'll be sure to relay that information to myself as a 19 year old the next time I'm twelve years in the past.
this would indicate that the person in question is 19+12 = 31 years currently

the problem with that is the sideshow is possible SEC/DOJ charges against the execs and these are not small time charges
Lanham SOX RICO and a few other very nasty bits may turn up they will need to have the servers intact to prevent GITMO level nasty type things.
