I completely agree, but they could come up with some other solutions. For example, they could limit the bandwidth of each computer. That could slow down the ftp leechers too.

Star Wars is #10 and Jurassic Park shit is #9. This is not fair.
But what makes a truly great sci-fi flick isn't just popcorn appeal; it's how well a world is conceived, developed, and realized. Wired's team of serious science fiction fans - led by Josh Calder, who rates films in depth at Futuristmovies.com - determined our rankings by three calibrating factors: a film's power to enthrall and excite (Adrenaline), how well it presents a scenario for the future (Vision), and whether the science behind the fiction holds up (Precision). Disagree?
Yes, i disagree. I think "Precision" is not that important. (Read: Bugs in matrix does not make it a bad movie. It's rated #3 though.)
BTW, Sci-fi does not mean a "Vision" of future. Take Star Wars. It says "a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away".
Perhaps the biggest limitation with the PaceBook actually comes in the form of software. The PaceBook ships with no handwriting recognition software, making text input when in tablet PC mode excruciating. PaceBlade suggests you use Microsoft Office XP for handwriting and voice dictation support but chose not to include the software package by default.
For the biotechnology industry, the humouse case is serious business. Without strong patent protections, the industry says, investors will not risk money to develop new products. And Rifkin and Newman aim to narrow the scope of what elements of life can be patented.
I think with strong patent protections science can't develop well. Same in software development. If patent holders do not develop the product, no one can.
Computer programs are not material goods and cannot be dealt with in the same way consumer advocates wants the legislature to deal with cars, electric appliances and toys. Computer programs are developed incrementally, and the users are always used as dummies.
In fact computer programs are very similar to material goods. (Not like in "Volkswagen Beetle vs Microsoft Windows", though.) Users of cars, electric appliances, cellulars, etc. are also used as dummies in a sense. Money is what counts. If you pay for something, you can ask something in return. (Read: Liability)
I guess, companies like which _sell_ products or services like Mandrakesoft, Redhat and Microsoft will suffer a lot, whereas groups such as Debian will not.
Realnames did not mean much to me, in fact I thought what they did was just lame and was just for money. It sucked. However, M$ is never fair in bu$ine$$, they must have _estimated_ that before.
Btw, do you know that most of the pages in microsoft.com domain disappear and reappear in a different url? Most of the links to pages in MSDN got lost. (Even the pages found by Google.)
Intel and other honest manufacturers should
stand fast and say, "We are not the world's policemen. We sell
general purpose equipment and we make it as flexible as possible to
attract the broadest range of customers.
Intel is not "world's policeman" but it is working with "world's policemen".
You can't hold the man who
makes pencils responsible because a bookie used a pencil to write down
a bet. And you can't demand that he design a pencil that can't be
used to write down a bet."
Even if you design such a pencil, an 13 years old hacker from Russia will do something and enable the pencil to do anything.
Every computer sciences (and engineering) major takes a course called something like "Microprocessors" or "Microcontrollers" and learns to design a microprocessor.
This course usually has prerequisite courses such as "Logic Design", "Computer Organization" or "Computer Architecture". Without those, it must be hard for non-cs guys to build a microprocessor. However, most of cool programmers/coders are not scientists, so it may also be possible.

You can also read the story here.
2012? Isn't that the year the Mayan calendar ends?
I'm sure they'll filter a lot. "Rare texts" are rare, because it's easy to use them agains Catholic Church. I think they'll stay "rare".
In fact you type "sc \\otherwindows start messenger"... (Without "net".)
And probably get an "Access is denied." response.
You can start and stop services from the command line fast.
open a cmd [ (leftwindows)r(/leftwindows) cmd (enter) ]
Type "net stop messenger" without the quotes.
You can start it back by typing "net start messenger".
Say, you need to send a message to someone in your LAN, you open it, then close it back.

I think the first thing you should do is getting/recruiting yourself some programmers and designers and having a good team.

This is what I call "the ultimate geek toy". Well, this is for the guys who think PDAs just are not powerful enough.
... I must say that we're all shocked by this. This law will obviously change very soon. In the meantime, it will not be obeyed. (As expected)

I'm sure FBI has files of other science genuines such as Nikola Tesla, etc. Any information?
I can't read Russian (in link 1) and there're only pictures of three monitors in the second link. That does not mean anything.

.. must be an easier task, if you fail with the mp3 player.
The code is just for mods. It has been already done for Quake 3: Arena, etc.
This is not like the release of the Quake 2 sources.
i hope these robots will work with the "three laws"
why did not slashdot gods did never use Slashcode2.0?
