Although the FBI can cooperate with foreign governments, the material may not be illegal where it is being hosted or the government in question may not be willing or able to stop it.
In some countries, 16 is not considered child porn, while in the US it is. In addition, certain types of nude material may be considered pornographic under Pennsylvania or US law but may be completely legal in the country in which it is being hosted.
Yep, they are in one of the shortcuts on the Hawaii track. Penguins. Not quite filled with frickin' penguins, but they are there. Both original SSX and SSX: Tricky have it.
The first time I saw them I was seriously baked and, well... (I mean how can you do anything involving a Snowboard without weed? Well, unless you are Canadian and it is the Olympics...)
I have a 20GB Archos Jukebox. After rebate, it can be had for roughly the same ballpark as your player ($199 v.s. $220).
I had a discman-style MP3 player in the past and found sorting my gigabytes of music out onto CDR's to be a pain in the butt, plus having to change CD's, etc.
Even if the capacity is higher, that is why I gave up CD's in the first place!
Battery life is excellent, although I have never bothered to actually benchmark it. The batteries are rechargable and it gets plugged into power in my car enough to keep it topped off, anyway.
With 20GB, I can store my entire collection, and with USB 2.0, keeping it synced with the MP3 partition on my PC is plenty easy and quick.
Oh, and did I mention it also functions as a voice recorder?
I participate in an IRC channel for people on the Autistic-spectrum, we have a troll who has made it his life's mission to evade bans and harrass us. I simply cannot fathom WHY someone would find pleasure in this, but he does.
This crocs a wild one, but I got me Acme brand knife stored in me trusty Toyota 4Runner and did I mention how fantastic it is? Never wanna be in the outback with one of these puppies, that's for sure!
The MPEG encoding/decoding process on PVR's is hardware-assisted, so in terms of raw CPU power, not much is really needed. TiVo boxes, for example, have fairly low-end PPC chips.
Yep. You hit the nail on the head. I have been in and out of psychologists and psychiatrists, etc my entire life trying to figure out just why I am so frigging, well, weird.
As it turns out, I am ADHD (which I have suspected my entire life) and mildly autistic (Asperger Syndrome). Only just now (at 26) am I figuring this out and that is from online research and meeting people in the community.
My current psychiatrist initially said I had an anxiety disorder (which I do), a depression disorder (which I do), I was probably ADHD, but I was "too high functioning" to have any form of autism. I started questioning him about his knowledge of Asperger Syndrome and quickly figured out I wasn't going to get any useful input from him. He was clueless. Utterly clueless.
Eventually I found a psychologist within my HMO who was somewhat familiar with it (and more importantly, was interested in learning, and actually read the research I had done) and agreed that it fit the bill eerily well. I am off to see an autism-specialist Psychiatrist next month to finally get my final AS diagnosis (not that it will make any difference in my life, I know who and what I am), but I have lost more respect for the mental-health field in the past year than I could ever place in words.
It's pretty close to that already. If you get pulled over and searched and you have a lot of cash without a receipt, the police will take your cash until you can document it. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty is beyond me.
Order something FedEx COD sometime. FedEx will not take cash for a Cash-On-Delivery shipment.
It is only a matter of time before retailers decide that keeping cash on premises is too big a security threat.... It will happen, it's not a question of "if", but "when".
Well, now we have proof that the Slashdot editor's don't even read the damn articles.
The DirecTV deal has nothing to do with rural customers. Rural customers couldn't get DSL from them before they went out of business, either.
The DirecTV story does not apply to their satelite-based system (DirecWay/DirecPC). This is what the people in the boonies use. The article clearly states this.

In most states, small-claims decisions can not be appealed. Period.
I can web-scrape all that same info off the site
And I quote the article (which I actually read)...
What's more, eBay will send the history of items he has browsed
I would like to see you scrape that.
Only on Slashdot would someone who obviously had not read the f***ing article get mo... Oh, never mind...
why not report them to the FBI?
One word: Jurisdiction

Let's see here, AMD's quarterly losses are up to $256,000,000.
Intel on the other hand made $686,000,000 in the same period.
Yes, Virginia, AMD does have issues. You can only sieve cash like that for so long.
You mean like SSX on the Playstation II?

He claimed to have a 386SX-40 in 1991
Fastest 386SX chip at that time would have been 20 Mhz.
Lindows is pre-installed on computers sold at WalMart aimed at people looking for the cheapest possible new computer.
For the most part...
Those people don't chat on IRC
They don't even know what a mailing list is
They are not going to be visiting technical sites for pleasure
Many of these people aren't even going to know what "Linux" is.
That's the point!

Although I would need something more valuable than your mother for it. Do you have any sisters?
I've brought them into cubefarms-a-plenty. Yes, it does bother people. No, I don't care. No, they don't ask me to take it home.
These are the only keyboards that I will use. Every system I use has one.
They are called a "type M" or "model M", depending upon who you ask.
They are actually quite easy to find. I have purchased several from goodwill for $5/each. You can also find them on EBay fairly cheap.
