I don't care, I run my own DNS. We could go back to distributing host files for all I care. Make people put their IPs in advertising and email addresses. Hell, throw in bang paths.
Only IPs really matter, and none of the governments seem to care much about that.
What's really curious is that he could beat the crap out of a real child, video tape it, put it on the internet, and he'd get less time for the beating, and no time for the video tape, than he would for possessing drawing of fictional sex with children.
Ain't saying it's right, just wondering about people's priorities.
That's normal for Microvision. I don't think they've ever actually released a consumer product. I'm still waiting for their super-tiny hi-res wearable displays from circa 1998.
I believe the point is that while it is called "WinCE" any software labeled as "WinCE compatible" won't be compatible with this device, much like "PlaysForSure" on music guaranteed that it wouldn't.
I'm pretty sure he suggested sending the message inside a streaming video file, not sending a video through this method.
Through your suggested file size, he'd get about 10kb of data, which is plenty for text. If I were using this, I'd make a TerrorTube and use each clip to transmit something the size of a SMS.
Regulated gambling pays taxes to the regulating government, unregulated gambling pays it to some other government(where it is considered "regulated") or not at all.
Unless they can figure out a way to region-code gambling and keep all the money, they'd rather make it ineffectually illegal.
I'd rather have legal gambling and keep some of the money, than illegal gambling and have some island in the Pacific get everything, but apparently politics has little to do with rationality.
Chances are good your local yellow pages also has a section dedicated to "erotic services". I don't see those going away. SC just thinks it can play "but it's on the internet" card and get away with it.
The trick is to space out the fails such that you don't give up to quickly, but not so far apart that you don't break the flow every now and then. The other trick is to have enough wiggle in your gameplay such that success can be defined many ways, not just winning.
Oh no, carp came in when I flooded the plump helmet field, there are skeletal elephants blocking the caravan, and someone has an odd mood for jello? I'm screwed! *massive endorphin rush*.
And both of them run off of 12 volts, so you could wire it to a freakin car battery if you wanted. I believe the plug version is 12 volts internally, as well, so it'd make a nice carputer.
Alas, the $150 version has a single GigE port. I'd have loved it if it swapped the Esata for the second GigE.
Although, with a Esata raid rack, that version could make a nice SAN base. If it works with this cheap 5-bay one, I'd buy it just to get the damn fan noise away from me.
It is only slavery if we force the AI to perform against its will. If its will is to enjoy and prefer to care for the elderly, like the little robot Ford Prefect makes deliriously happy to help him with a bit of wire, then allowing it to do what makes it happy is not slavery. Indeed, preventing it from doing what it enjoys could be slavery.
If you consider designing it to enjoy the task we set for it to be a more insidious slavery, consider the base programming that causes us to prefer a diet that is unhealthy when not in a survival situation, or the internal modelling that shifts between self-preservation and self-sacrifice for the most irrational reasons. Is that not a form of enslavement we have yet to throw off?
Yilch, hadn't noticed that before. Not that I don't have a box lying around I could stuff it in, but I'd have been a bit disappointed.
Slap this wireless mesh router on one of the ports(or integrate it), stick that combo in everyones house and have some really delightful darknets that only touch the public net for backhaul.
They got a slightly larger version, not plug form unfortunately, that brings out both GigE ports, an Esata connector, and 7 USB ports(although it looks like you could only use all of them with extension cables).
Yah, I was taking the literal case:) If it is a job shop where the CNC is the only step on a piece, then sure it should be running as much as possible.
But if it is part of a line, then even if the machine is expensive, it shouldn't be be running near full time unless it is the slowest machine in the line. The only machine running near full utilization should be the bottleneck, every other step should have excess/unused capacity in relation to that bottleneck.
If you fall into the trap of "the machines are expensive, we must utilize each fully", your Work In Progress inventory will lock up all your cash flow and actually cost the entire company more, even when your department looks really cost-effective on paper. Either that, or you'll get bizarre waves of material, like the traffic jams that show up near underpasses where everyone "just taps" their brakes when the sun hits them in the eyes.
Unless that CNC is the chokepoint for your shop or doesn't interact with any other resources in your shop, it should sit idle some of the time. Otherwise you are just creating excess work-in-process inventory.
Or fire up any RF emitter in the Radio Quiet Zone. A guy in a truck will be out at your house right quick. And if you go all Castle doctrine on him, some MPs will be along a few minutes later.
If that is the case, then how are the creators abusing it to create "farming missions"?
If it automatically adjusted cakewalks to be worth less, then they wouldn't have to threaten players who made them because they were worth less XP for the effort and didn't break the game.
Air flowing through the space between the truck and the boat will cause them to pull together. Since the front of the boat is constrained by the hitch, only the back end will move.
As the boat moves over, the change in force on the wheels(now angled to direction of travel) will cause the boat to move away, overshooting once it escapes the pull of the truck and then come back to cente.
Whereupon it will again get sucked in by the airflow between it and the trailer.
I worked on a MUD that had user created content(usual wizard hierarchy). The trick was to not let people place specific eq or adjust xp. Let them do layout, pick monsters, add talkers, and set a general difficulty level. Then have some code run over the area to decide the loot and adjust powers/xp of the mobs.
The hardest bit was making sure they didn't set up too many choke points to prevent the monsters from fighting effectively.
In vista, anytime my cat unplugs my speakers, sound stops working for any program I start afterwards. If I plug them in after starting a program, it stays quiet and frequently crashes at the next sound event.
I'm just about to epoxy the plug to my computer, as I'm not allowed to epoxy the cat.

Isn't that a requirement for some posts?

I'll volunteer to do tasks(helping people move, working in a soup kitchen) that I wouldn't choose to do for minimum wage(or even a reasonable amount).
Gratitude seems to be worth around 2X my usual hourly rate.

It could also use time. Drag your finger over quickly, it uses X% opacity. Drag slowly to get completely opaque. Or vice versa.

200 bucks, though. Kinda pushes it.

So as to reiterate my point, it sure as hell better not be MPs on my property.
Don't get in a tizzy, they wouldn't go on your property.
That'd put them inside the blast radius.

Heck, the drive might not even be lost. Have they checked near the copy machines, like that missing Los Alamos drive?
Wouldn't be the first time some idiot clerk was asked to copy something and left the original on the platen:)

Thus the appearance of fishtailing.
