Where I live roads are exclusively paid for by car registration and fuel tax, so bike riders are indeed freeloading.
Got proof of that? I find it very hard to believe that in any country roads (which are damn expensive to build and maintain) are paid for by rego (which is not much at all), instead of general taxes paid by everyone.
> "Bike riders don't pay for the roads, they don't pay for rego, nor do they have insurance."
Not sure what country you're from, but here in Australia roads are paid for by Federal and State taxes. Every tax payer pays for roads, not just car drivers.
Rego, here at least, pays for the cleanup of car accidents.
And I'm a cyclist who has insurance, provided for by the State Bicycling Club.
Datsun became Nissan in 1983. If someone managed to register nissan.com "long before" then, then I say he and his flux capacitor deserve the domain name.
> A keyboard keylogger? "Scary". I think not. It's not like these people are going to bust into internet cafe's, pick the lock and change the keyboard without anybody noticing.
And what makes you think the internet cafe owner wouldn't just do this themselves?
I know a friend who used an internet cafe to do net banking, and the next day, they had $3000 transferred from their credit card to a mysterious account
> The very definition of RAID is "Redundant Array of INEXPENSIVE Disks".
Actually, the definition has been back-formed to "Redundant Array of Independent Disks, since you won't necessarily be using inexpensive drives any more.
Just because you put 500gb drives in a RAID array, doesn't suddenly make them inexpensive, but they are each independent.
Boy, this gets my goat. I'm sure they mean to say DVD players, however they screwed it up and said DVDs, which clearly refers to the medium, not the player.
Why does this happen so much with DVD players? You don't hear people refer to a CD player as a CD, do you?
You hear this enough in advertising, but you'd think Macromedia would know better.
except that in this case, the adult didn't know that what they were supplying the minor with was alcohol... it could have been chocolate for all they knew
Considering the cost of bandwidth here, you're absolutely right. The only reason it is cost effective to download episodes is because of free data peering between major adsl providers.
Well we don't really know what is 'top rated' in the US, do we.
But for example, right now, we are halfway through season 6 of The Amazing Race. I got frustrated with this, and downloaded the rest of the season, and the first 6 episodes of season 7. God knows if season 7 will ever be shown here, and if so, when.
We're only just getting season 16 of the simpsons, also. At least that has a little bit less lag than the other tv shows.
wikipedia is ranked #168 at alexa.com slashdot is ranked #1,319..
at an estimate, based on the graph of traffic, wikipedia gets around 5 times as much traffic as slashdot, so a slashdotting would do all of nothing to their servers

Data Centre may have a max power per cabinet restriction. Very common, and forces you to spread what could be a one rack system over multiple racks.
Correct, they don't include Google Apps as part of the ROM.
They are distributed separately
Download, and flash in the same way as the ROM. No hassles at all.
Sure, the first time you go to it.
The second time, it should be in your Firefox Awesome Bar, and you won't need to type more than the domain.
The third time, you should consider bookmarking the site.
OP is dead on the money

typical US attitude...
the person to blame here is the kid, for standing in a parking spot
"why not just use the permanent, removable storage for such vital information?"
because it is limited in size.
my sim card can hold 30 sms messages
my phone can hold 200
my sim card can hold 210 contacts
my phone can hold 1000
the sim card runs out of space way too quickly, which is why i use the nice large internal memory of the phone

at worst, they're guilty of neglect
conspiracy implies intent
you'd have to prove the hubs were set up with the intent to share illegal music. tough.
probably best not to say here
No,
Each SPE can only run one thread.
The POWER core _can_ run two threads, but it is recommended to only run one.

and it may even be a mute argument ...
or even more likely, a moot argument
none of their pages are hosted on _one_ server, for that exact reason

just something to keep in mind
