If there's a bunch of guys busting into your house, and they look like real cops, are you really going to take the chance that they aren't and shoot them all up?
Here in Kansas, captcha evolution has been subject to legal review. Kansas City's Road Runner is employing packet shaping to eliminate the evolution of captchas. You might not see the captcha, but others believe it exists.
Know what you mean about water damaged wood. I'm amazed houses and businesses with lots of wood composite chip board survive the rain until they are completed. I see construction sites with that stuff warping before its even installed.
Another thing that would worry me about buying a house in NO... Are the title deeds REALLY clear? They won't have any claims made on them in the future from former lost residents trying to come back? I see a movie in the making...
Nothing is obvious to a business manager paying lawyers. To you its obvious, but they think its shiny and cool and will take it. They want a price on everything, because they are in the business of buying and selling. Free ideas to them is their worst nightmare.
I say go one better, set up an automatic system that asks questions.
This would be very effective against the "surveys" which are questions of themselves. Sounds like it could be a simple project. Don't even have to wait for a silence to interrupt with a new question... I like this!
The anti-telemarketer counterscript is a good starting point with great questions we want to seek, but it is a script. They can usually see through it pretty quick, especially if they are familiar with it. The average home should have enough opportunities a day (a dozen telemarketers) to work up a good fact finding set in short time. This is business, nothing personal, so hold nothing back. Their only goal is to extract money from YOU. Your goal is to extract INFORMATION from them. They give you time, you give them questions. Questions are the knife to pry information they can't defend. They can evade correct answers by making things up, but the score increases with each minute they don't make a sale. Its a game. A losing game. People just have to play it and telemarketers will cease to exist.
Unfortunately, people are amazingly gullible. I learned how to fight them when I worked long hours on the nightshift at a manufacturing plant. They would call all day. I would play them and get email addresses "so I could send them my resume." I was very creative. They were too. One telemarketer was able to convince the powers-to-be to get my phone service suspended. I knew I hit the heart then. And with no profanity or threats either.
What's even better than asking for their number? Asking them questions! This is pure gold when it comes to social engineering. Pretend to be open and helpful, but interrupt their script with questions, any kind of questions! Have you ever wanted to ask someone an embarrasing question, but was too afraid to ask? This is the chance. You have their time. Its NOT considered RUDE to interrupt with questions. This shows interest, even if off topic and devious. Ask questions on crack. Take notes, compile the best, and compare with others. Research the physical call center and who runs it. Posting online to your favorite forum of choice is evil and I would never suggest doing such a thing....unless you want the most popular thread of the week! Give them the attention they crave. Stop them cold.
Telemarketers can be fun. I've identified several, got a few shut down, and got retaliated against one (who happened to be the phone company forcing their employees to cold call during idle time.)
The applications you mention that make the ARM processor too slow may also be attractive. A platform free of flash and dancing media makes for a quiet environment that is unique. A whole community is thriving in this minimalist, battery conserving world. These are motorcycles compared to the new breed of superSUV being pushed upon us. Sometimes more can be done with less.
Isn't the backbone capable of metering connections to an attacked country? I haven't noticed the providers to be politically spineless (except for AT&T) but can't they help a poor country out?
We could use the same Hollywood movie set that created the Apollo Moon Landings to put a weather station there too. Shouldn't cost more than the typical movie these days. They could even charge tickets for the weather.
...set of lies and twisted "truths" from this nutjob, who wouldnt know the actual truth if it came up and bit him.
Because we all know the President Bush tells the truth and would never mislead us.
Just pay your electric bill and they'll give you all the power you want. Start saving for your trip!
Now there's a knowledgable, unbiased, accurate source. Are contract talks coming up soon?
I'd trust anyone working out in the field compared to the suit and tie CEO who would could only be dragged into the trenches for photo-ops.

Not if they are piRIAAtes! aaaaaarrrrrrrr!!!
Those open connections are just part of the redundancy of the internet. And the next time RIAA come knocking on our door, we just point fingers again.
Yes sir! Their policy is their mission statement:
Committed to Excellence in Defense of The Nation
Notice its "The Nation" and not "Our Nation."
Be quiet you. Or we'll bring back meept !

Assembly is cheating. REAL engineers use state logic diagrams and troubleshoot the output with a logic analyzer and slide rules.
You can DRM using GPL3 all you want, but the code has to be free. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
They got a patent. Doesn't matter who they bribed to get it. Its the law. Pay up.
This is what we get for playing IP games and "owning" ideas.

The bribe is about the same for Democrat or Republican and just happens to be about the same as a RIAA "settlement offer."
Cheap sellout bastards indeed!
adds up quickly to most people.

Why did they agree to such an incredibly crappy deal?
Money. It had a business plan to those inking the deal. They stole from the company.
or in plain English, "Novel is fucked and didn't read the license before accepting."

This is Slashdot. A spell checker is redundant and not needed.
