After a bigwig at my company got his laptop stolen at the airport with lots of sensitive info. They made up lots of dumb rules: * all laptop cases must be backpack type or other non recognizable. * all harddrives must have a password if supported by the bios. * blah, blah, blah...
They found out they could save a lot of money, by giving the paper permission to print during a range of days (space available basis). They paper would give them only a short notice (12 hrs?) that they placed it. Sorry for lack of details, I going from memory due to/. effect.
It was not immediately clear whether a systems failure or a hacking attack was to blame. Campaign and committee officials would only say they were investigating.
For a party (dems) that are supposed to support diversity, the hate speech during this election is amazing. If you don't agree with the Dems, you are vilified.
The election is *supposed* to be on which policies make sense. Some think Bush makes more sense, some think Kerry makes more sense. That is the free election way.
Calling Bush: Hitler, UN Hater, isolationalist is HATE speech. State your views, not your hate.
Yes, everyone complaining about the reverse part of this is missing the deeply hidden point. This new term will help joe six pack think about a new and improved way to use their firewall.
Or to put it another way, moving info from the geek level to the everyday use level requires marketing. We may know and use this all the time, but with a little maketing buzz, joe six pack will want this too.
Think of this as, the real use of marketing, educating the masses. How long has it been since the masses even knew a firewall was a computer thing and not something the fire marshall made the theater install to stop stage fires from killing the audience?
Wrong oh intolerant one. If they were to play 1812 overature at that volume level, I bet you would join me in complaining. Tolerance of each others opinion about music, does not mean I must be forced to listen to others music at max level in a general mercendise store . I happen to like everything from classical to rap (DC Talk). I grew up in the 60's after all. Just not while I'm shopping for a vacuum cleaner.
I try to avoid BB as much as possible. They think only those that love loud, hard music shop there. When I complained to a chasher, She said the music was the only thing that got her through the day. I filled a complaint on line and got not response. I wonder if OSHA could fine them. I also have had a run-in with buy the ESP or else. I currently own 7 computers, but no more from BB.
I think it was an Airbus autopilot that took over an airplane on landing and tried to pull up, ended up killing everyone. It was told to do a touch and go when the pilots were still trying to land.
My S/E T62U locks up when playing one of the games and the keypad lock feature is flawed. I emailed support and they blew me off.
If you receive an voice mail, the phone "asks" if you want to call voice mail, even when keypad lock is on, one push of a soft key and bang there goes your airtime. Realy great when you have it in a pocket or purse when keys get pushed by accident.
They are an OEM site. One of their Customers does make a removable drive with it: Digitalway PR stuff:
The MPIO HS100 storage device, which measures 43.6(W) x 84.5(H) x 14.8(D) mm, will available in retail stores in early summer. The MPIO HS100, combined with the Cornice SE, enables consumers to carry a small and portable device in hand that is able to store up to 1,000 floppy disks worth of information.... The device comes with an installation CD, a USB extension cable, a carrying case, a necklace strap, user guide and a warranty card.
Or for Audio look at RCA:
Thomson expects to ship the RCA LYRA Micro Jukebox (RD2760), containing the 1.5-gigabyte Cornice SE, to retail stores in summer 2003 with a suggested retail price of $249.
The version I submitted at least had some meat to it. Features and Failures. If you are going to reject readers for your own story at least make it a better version, not a one liner
The walking forest machine is Plustech's best-known innovation. The goal of product development was a machine that has the best possible working stability and minimum impact to the terrain.
The walking machine adapts automatically to the forest floor. Moving on six articulated legs, the harvester advances forward and backward, sideways and diagonally. It can also turn in place and step over obstacles. Depending on the irregularity of the terrain, the operator can adjust both the ground clearance of the machine and the height of each step.
The machine's nerve center is an intelligent computer system that controls all walking functions - including the direction of movement, the travelling speed, the step height and gait, and the ground clearance.
The harvester head is controlled by the Timberjack measuring and control system. To further optimize machine operation, Timberjack's Total Machine Control system (TMC) regulates the functions of the machine's loader and engine. All control systems are designed for ease of use.
The operator-friendly controls are incorporated in a single joystick.
Some PBX phones will send the number you dial digitally to the phone system (SS7 protocol). Locally they give you the "bland bleep" as feedback that the button was actually pushed. This method is faster than DMTF, after I release the final button, the phone will start ringing on a local call.
They still have to a special DMTF generator to send the tones for those automated operators, etc...

NEW YORK (AP)--Web sites for President Bush's campaign and the Republican National Committee suffered outages for several hours on Wednesday.
It was not immediately clear whether a systems failure or a hacking attack was to blame. Campaign and committee officials would only say they were investigating.

My favorite bug too.
The whole purpose of a GUI is to use grahics and get rid of text when not needed.
They could count to five and with help from a friend, 25 i.e.,"hand of hands", after that it was "many, many".
**SPOILER**
Turns out they were space travlers, whose ship crashed and they degenerated into the wild state due to centuries of trying to survive.
The Complete Fuzzy by H. Beam Piper is still sold and has all three books in one.

The SEC has all kinds of rules to sue them for this fraud.
Stockholders can be next.
Lots of lawyers working for money managemnet firms.

The better dressed they are, the bigger lies they tell. It just screams "ENRON" to me.
