My service has gotten signifcantly faster for me lately. This is probably due to the fact that Netflix opened up a distribution center recently in Coppell, TX (which is a whooping 20 miles or so away from me) than any process enhancements on their part.
Another big problem with the odometer solution is that driving on private property shouldn't be taxed as you're not using a public road. If I own a big farm and put a large amount of miles on my vehicle hauling things from point A to point B on my property, I shouldn't be charged for it.
Using the GPS solution would allow the state to filter out miles incurred on private roads, but then you lose that whole "we won't track where you go" thing.
The Ligenfelter package itself costs around $23 thousand dollars. Add in the price of the Corvette, which starts at $44 thousand, and you're look at at least a $67 thousand dollar cost of admission.
The beauty of small engine tuning is that you take a car that almost anybody can afford and turn it into something better.
Unless, I'm mistaken, in Simon you're presented with a series of flashing buttons, and then have to replicate the pattern from memory.
In DDR, you see a pattern of arrows on the screen and move your feet to hit the correct pad on the floor (while trying not to look like a putz). Hardcore players may memorize the arrow pattern to improve their game, but it's not a requirement for playing. Otherwise, you only have to remember an arrow long enough to stomp your foot in the right place, and then you can forget it.
It's more like accidentally leaving the shade in your house open. If you lived across the street and pointed a camera into the window, I'd feel pretty violated. Telling me "you should have encrypted the photons you were reflecting out the window" wouldn't make me feel any less violated.
I used to have this game on my computer way back when. I was pretty young, maybe 10 years old or so. I used to really get into the game, and even had a pair of grey cargo pants that were my "flight suit" for when I played:) After a successful mission I truly felt proud of myself.
Slashdot people get all uppity about browser cookies from advertising companies and complain about their loss of privacy.
Then they turn around and say "cool, I need to get me some of that" to a device that lets you invade other people's privacy without their knowledge or consent.
Of course, Slashdot people are also "we hate the MPAA, when does the new Matrix movie open?" too, so I guess I shouldn't be too shocked:)
The GPL states that the source code be available to anyone who receives a binary copy of the source, not the general public as a whole. If you buy Lindows, you can get the source code from their "my.lindows.com" page.
The foam is quite a bit more rigid than nerf ball material:) It's more like hard foam some bicycle helmets and knee pads have in them... I used to intern at the place that makes the external tanks and had a chunk of the foam at my desk.
The average user doesn't know what either Phoenix or Firebird are. If you asked the average computer user to identify what Mozilla, Firebird, or Phoenix were you'd probably here "that lizard", "a car", and "some place in Arizona".
That should be "BIOS with an embedded browser in it", which mucks up the issue.

Easter Humor

· Score: 2, Informative
My girlfriend works at Petco. Their store actually stops selling rabbits for about a few weeks prior to Easter until a few days after, just for that reason. Lots of people buy them on impulse and most of them end up neglected or returned once Easter is over. She gotten yelled at a few times by customers who wonder where the bunnies are, and when she tells them they usually shut up and look guilty:)
Each of the 5 bits that have been added is slightly different, due to differing views on good and evil.
bit 1 - definately evil (contains pictures of dead babies being eaten by a man covered in feces) bit 2 - mostly evil (internal microsoft memo) bit 3 - pretty evil (download of a vi clone) bit 4 - kinda evil (how to enlarge your penis) bit 5 - just mischevious (b00bies)

As a continent, I find this to be a grave violation of my privacy. Can I at least opt out of this tracking?

About the only thing Simon and DDR have in common is they both have flashing lights. Simon challenges your memory. DDR challenges your coordination.
Would a query like this:
SELECT * FROM users WHERE userid = 'ahitler';
Cause the DB to crash, per Godwin's Law?
Finally a place to store my retirement grease!
I admit I didn't see all the episodes, but I don't remember seeing one where Wesley went around crushing boys.
Or VBScript, JavaScript, even PerlScript if you have the ActiveState Perl distribution installed. Windows Scripting is capable of some neat things.
But when happens when the site that is serving the .torrent files gets Slashdotted?
.torrent files.
.torrent2 files you ask? Well, "Torrent^3" is in the works.
I propose creating a new system called "Torrent^2" that distribute the load of transferring
But what about the load of transferring

In retrospect, I was a total dork.

In the past WinCE blue screens were pretty rare, but now that many PDAs have color displays it may be more common.
Screw that. With these guys, you can turn yourself into a CPU! When you die, your children can play Doom VI because of your remains.
The game engine is GPLed, but the game data isn't. If you want #3, you'll have to beg/borrow/buy/steal it yourself.
That's because you didn't include anything about the new RFC. You should have submitted:
Duke Nukem 3D Source Released with support for RFC3514 (no kidding)
Then it would have gotten posted up, not once but five times.
