It's always strange for me to listen to Pink Floyd songs out of context from the rest of the album. It probably stems from listening to those albums start to finish in my youth, and many of the songs blending in to one an other. For example, at the end of Dark Side of the Moon, "Brain Damage" flows directly in to "Eclipse," and separating those two tracks should be illegal.
Usenet has pretty much digressed into an unregulated binary file distribution network. People who want it for discussion will use a web based news reader. People who use it do download files in a non p2p way will subscribe though cox or somebody else.
A single nuclear submarine carries over 150 nuclear warheads.
150 nuclear warheads?.. you sure about that? I did my time on a nuclear powered attack sub (688i class) and between our vertical launch tubes, and stuff that could be fired from torpedo tubes we probably had a total of 30 torpedoes/missiles... none of which were nukes. Do the boomers really carry that number of nuclear warheads? I doubt it. I would imagine

A lot of the UI functionality in Sharepoint depends on MS ActiveX controls. God help you if you use a non-microsoft browser. *VERY* painful.
Water is 8 pounds per gallon at standard temperature and pressure. Can be 7 pounds or less per gallon at very high temperatures since it expands, and becomes less dense. Of course on the moon it is only 1.33 pounds per gallon at standard temperature and pressue. Perhaps we should do our battles on the moon.
IANAL, but... I think that it is legal to perform music that has been recorded on any label. I think I could grab my guitar, sell tickets, and perform my version of any song without risk of legal problems. Isn't that what 'tribute' shows are about?
Similar story here. Signed up for Qwest DSL with Qwest internet about two weeks ago. We had problems with the phone wiring and the modem would not train... just blinked trying to connect.
I call them...
Me: The DSL modem won't train... the DSL light just keeps blinking. Qwest: What Operating System are you using sir?
Me: I've got 2 computers running XP Pro, and 2 running Linux. Qwest: Which one is plugged into the DSL modem?
Me: None of them... the DSL Modem is plugged into a router that does DHCP and NAT for the local network. Qwest: Why don't we try plugging one computer directly into the modem.
Me: Because it won't make any difference on whether or not the modem trains. Qwest: Lets give it a try.
Fucking morons.

Some spyware is also sold for the explicit purpose of helping spouses to spy on their partners, parents to spy on their children, and employers to spy on their workers.
So this guy really feels that employers who monitor company computers are spying on their employees? Should closed circuit cameras be taken down to prevent spying on employees? It's a company computer... they can load whetever software they like on it!
To accept standardization on ink cartriges you would effectively be preventing printer manufacturers from 'innovating'. A newer ink technology may mean that 'standard' cartriges would not work. There have been major changes in ink formulation and print head design over the years. Also, HP, Lexmark, and Xerox all hold patents on imaging technologies that their competitors can not use, or must license. Due to this I don't think there will ever be 'standard' cartriges. With color Laser printers the toner composition plays a major role in the resi of the imaging process... halftoning, the amount of bias required, etc..:diatonic:.
Shoppers could steal the Shopping Buddies, but there wouldn't be much point. The custom-built devices can't run ordinary computer software; they're good for shopping and nothing else.
We've heard that before... given a few weeks I'm sure some pimply 16 year old in the netherlands could have a linux kernel on it, using Mozilla to surf the web wirelessly.
I don't see how exposure to ionizing radiation could possibly extend a human's life. When a cell absorbs radiation, there are four possible effects on the cell. First, the cell may suffer enough damage to cause loss of proper function, and the cell will die. Second, the cell may lose its ability to reproduce. Third, the cell's genetic code (the DNA) may be damaged such that future copies of the cell are altered, which may result in cancerous growth. Finally, the absorption of radiation by a cell may have no adverse effect.
Cells that are damaged by radiation exposure can often repair themselves, if given the time. If a cell reproduces before it can repair itself is when you have problems. Cells that reproduce quickly are more suceptable to radiation exposure.
Besides these direct attacks to cells from radiation, radiation exposure can also create enzymes n the body which attack cells causing damage. I think the only way radiation exposure could potentially help a human being would be targeting cancerous areas and killing all cancerous cells.
The NY Times is 2 products; an offline and an online newspaper. You knock the online version out and you've killed half the products the company offers. Advertisers need to be repaid, workers have to be paid even though they can't do any work, etc. And you're going to lose a certain number of readers to other sites, some temporarily, others permanently. I agree that the numbers here do not seem unreasonable at all.
...but he didn't take down the NYT site, or make it unavailable. He trespassed. Would trespassing in the NYT building cause $25K in damages?.. even if he rifled through file cabinets? I doubt it.
Build a MythTV box... use the default MPEG-4 encoding, and you'll get an hour of recording for every GB available... you can even store to remote NFS or samba shares, distribute the recordings over your local network, and use your modded XBOX to watch Live TV (streamed over the network from the backend) or recorded shows. 500GB would give you 500 hours:)
Perhaps corresponcance marked as 'personal' could be limited to 250 emails a day (high enough not to be a problem, low enough to prevent abuse)... any email sent in addition to that could refuse to be routed, based on the certificate being suspicious, and notify the user that it failed... try again tomorrow.
It may be tough though to keep track of how many emails are being sent per certificate, unless the CA could somehow do it.
It can be hard to run a business when you are giving away your product for free. They would have to sell support services to say viable, and they must not feel they could remain in business long that way.
