And, as I recall, he used his real name. Several of them used their real names. Thatshould have caught them. but it didn't. and it won't if everybody has a national ID card. Of course, a national ID card is a giant kick me sign for anybody the cops want to harass.
I wrote a book called "Harry Potter's Guide to Magic Gardening" don't you think I would have Warner Bros on my case in very short order?
You probably would - Harry Potter is most likely a trademarked term, so unless you could demonstrate that you were talking about a different Hary Potter (like, for example, your uncle), you'd be in some hot water.
, would two fans (presumably the stronger pulling through the weaker is the best) mounted together both blowing in the same direction be effecient?
Your design probably isn't the most efficient, but it gets results, so who cares. The dual fan thing doesn't strike me as a performance thing so much as a redundacy thing - lose one fan and you still have active cooling
The power grid was built to carry power, not data, and it is singularly unsuited to the latter role
On the other hand, a couple of strands of fiber could fit on high tension runs with nary a bit of difference. The only complication would be that you'd need to send two crews out for repairs - one for power, one for fiber splices.
Windows is familiar. It's not that easy - if you ever get a chance to see a complete neophyte use it (like in a QA lab or maybe a computer store), you'll understand. Maybe Linux isn't that easy to install, but it's not that bad to use.
windows and sun both use proprietary implementations of TCP/IP. The protocol, on the other hand, is standard. AOL uses a proprietary implementation of a proprietary protocol - this is the problem.
If they would take even half the money spent on crap legislation and copy protection and used to produce quality art, they wouldn't have a problem making a profit
They don't have a problem making a profit. They have a problem making an obscene profit.
if I want to hold my ISP responsible for the spammers it harbours, but I don't want them to be responsible for copyright infringement on their network, am I being a hypocrite?
No.
You most likely object to the spammers because their behavior is disruptive and wasteful. They are also fairly high profile because of this. Copyright violations are almost invisible by comparison (unless they're sharing 3000 mp3s on a T3), so their actions aren't really disruptive.

Last time I checked www was a thing that came out Switzerland, last time I checked Siemens was still making ICs
And the last time I checked, the Internet itself was invented in the US. It's more than the www, you know.

Show me another industry that has that high a fraud rate - there isn't, why?
For starters, the Internet is not an industry. It is a worldwide public network
This is a troll, right?
No, it's a joke.

Enough with the Starwars quotes; they're almost as old as I am

Really high end means that the stereo will likely cost more taht my house.
Please tell me you're not paying $100 for audio cables?
And if you are, may I be of service?

You do realize that 2.4.0 had the paper bag bug that everyone and their dog has been mentioning, right?
I just think that Scott's talking out of his ass in this case, so seeing someone quote it as some sort of deep truth really grates
Ugh. That stuff that scott is spewing may work for the established artist, but try to make a name with it. Now for the Penny-arcade response:
I can't stop Talking!
how strange... I didn't realize that 2.4.0 was odd.
Nah, from looking at CNN, it's more like " All your base are flat as pancake."
but if the work is already done for the classes, it dosen't cost extra to make it available to another medium.
That depends on who owns the course material. In a lot of places, that would be the prof.

If we were to abandon PCI, what would you have us use? PCI is fast enough for mosth things, actually does a decent P&P, and is cheap.
I believe AMD is working on a completely new rating system to be adopted in 2002
What's wrong with SpecMarks? I mean, they test whole systems (memory + chip), but that's a whole lot more accurate that clock rate.
Try running in with a heatsink; your results might improve.

this is an amazing performance.
Now if they could only do a good job the rest of a time.
I'll give them a hand. Well, a finger anyways
