The new title will be Sim Carmack. It's a simulation type game where you design some great 3d shooter games, and then do nothing but roll around in money for about 4 years.
Well, they did say original, so it's all in realtime.
It's OK, with enough practice one day you'll be able to use big words like the rest of the world.
We do not have a two party system.
We have the illusion of a two party system, where people who wouldn't normally be in the same party will put themselves in the same party just to be accepted. In reality we have huge divides in both major parties.
If you undermine one party, you don't always help the other. Politics isn't that simple and shouldn't be treated like a simple task.
Simple politics eventually give us things like 'Mission Accomplished' signs. Complex politics eventually give us things like 'The Bill of Rights'.
Doesn't something disturb and worry you about a shopkeeper whipping a polaroid camera out and snapping photos of customers that they don't like so that they can put them on the wall?
No. Why should it? By going into a store, you surrender your right of anonymity. If the store wants to take my picture and put it on the wall, there is nothing I can do about it - other than not entering the store, putting up a ThisStoreSucks.com web site, etc.
Actually, I think intent has a say in this. If all they're doing is putting up photos, fine. If they're doing it to intimidate you, you have a shot at a harassment charge. It's a longshot, but it's there.
Either way, back to the original story. The bartender, Rachel, confiscated a fake ID being used to buy a drink by someone underage (Ashley)... Great, a crime right up there with excessive littering.
Of course, that wasn't enough, the bartender decided to be an asshole and the girl's friends retaliated. She crossed the line with a cutesy semi-poetic blog post and got smacked down for it. So, the next step is to try and turn this into a discourse about DMCA and how the license was fake and copyright shouldn't apply, when all it boils down to is... you were acting like an asshole and you got called on it.
Now, back to the DMCA violation, even if the ID is fake, the photo isn't and should still be protected by copyright.
I think we can all remember certain service packs that broke various versions of Windows NT pretty much completely...
Actually, I don't. Was it before Windows NT 3.1 beta? Because that's when I started using it.
I do remember service packs that broke verious versions of windows NT that had some software loaded on it that really shouln't have made it out of beta testing.
Get out of the licensing business, push that off on the accounting/purchasing people. Best advice here.
Actually, I'm assuming they bought at least 1 copy of Office and they're not downloading ISOs and keygens. That makes it a licensing dispute, not piracy. (I love EULAs sometimes).
The newest rev of T-SQL has TRY and CATCH. If I ever migrate over to it, I could avoid most GOTOs, it might make the code look better, but honestly, I don't know if it will be more efficient.
Actually, I was describing a VPN system where you terminated in some country that doesn't have rules like CALEA.
So, I would tunnel to a friendly country like Sealand (example) and send all my packets out from there.
Aren't there VPN ISPs that terminate in neutral countries that can circumvent spying?
Design for what you want to use today and in the near future, don't design for a few years from now, you'll never get it built.
That being said, mirroring might be the easiest solution to upgrade, but you'll sacrifice speed and space.
If you want speed and redundancy, you'll have to go with something like RAID 5 or RAID 10 and just have a painful upgrade in the future.
Except if you're part of Microsoft.

That's why there's a problem, especially in the EU, where they are not very happy with these types of special arrangements.

I'll go out on a limb and predict that the false positives will eventually get Sentinel sued out of business.
MySpace has a little protection by outsourcing, but I'm guessing we'll see a few richer lawyers when all is said and done.
It's Connecticut, so we can expect the same quality level of computer experts that we saw in the Julie Amero case.
It's not worth it to modify the hardware. It might be easier to put the thing in a fancy wooden case of some sort to hide the base.
If you do it right, you can make it look like a jewelery box, with, um, a screen sticking out of the back. Ok, the idea needs work.

Half of the list starts with the letter C. It's a Conspiracy, I think.

In today's Washington, that is defacto support of the Democrats
Don't you mean anarchists?, oops, sorry... communists, oops, sorry... terrorists, oops, sorry... liberals, oops sorry... illegal immigrants
I forgot, which witch hunt are the conservatives on this week?
Actually a nice table would be useful, we could have dates/times and check boxes, that way we'll all know who the bad guys are.
Leave some extra space on the bottom for lines like 'if you're not for us, you're against us' and other innane quotes.
Hey, I found one, it seems to fit in very well, "War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength." .
You are talking about that Richard Armitage guy, the big Democrat supporter who outted Valerie Plame.
Not supporting the Republican party does not automatically make you a supporter of the Democratic party.
You forgot to mention the annual 14th street substation explosion and fire. Bring beer and franks, it's a blast.
Also, the fun brownouts in central Queens. Hey, your voltage is at 90 and the outside temp is 100, party time!
Well, I figured out what the CON stood for years ago.
consistent interface and connections, and it would be easy to configure and understand.
So, completely different from every other open source project.
Why don't you just google for links instead?
duh...
There are probably a whole bunch of other advantages not listed here.
You forgot more efficient DoS attacks.
Wow, I pretty much agreed with twitter on something. A sure sign of the Apocalypse I think.
Coming up next, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria.

Actually, it stood for both. Marketing called it New Technology, Development called it N-Ten. I beta tested it, so I have a little more insight.
Either way, it was an upgraded VMS system that ran Windows software, which was pretty brilliant when you think about it.
I think we can all remember certain service packs that broke various versions of Windows NT pretty much completely...

I agree, GOTO's are useful. Especially in error handling.
Granted, I write mostly Transact-SQL stored procedures nowadays which makes BASIC look OO.
And a new study conducted by me says everyone is unique in their own way and reacts differently to different situations.
Yay, I saved billions in research, someone send me a new gaming rig, my old P4 is showing it's age.
(If you don't, I'll play a few levels of Doom at you.)
Oh, hold on, does that make your writing of it illegal?
Nah, this is crossing state lines, so it's all federal and I get to call them names.
You, however, are guilty of willfully and persistently being a foreigner, I think it's a Class A felony nowadays.
(Mods: That's a joke)
