Oh no.. Quite the opposite from what I understand. Here in canada, all the wireless phone carriers and even ISPS are encouraging (read as PAYING) businesses to have themselves wired for cable or fibre. They then wire up APs around your business. You allow them to run an open AP (for their customers, and in alot of cases completely free, and they provide you with a roboust wireless infrastructure for your business on another vlan.
What do they get? They get to claim that they have the most network coverage in WLAN. See here for an example of shaw, a doing this. http://www.shaw.ca/internet/wifi/
Of course there are other open access points everywhere now it is almost expected. Like starbucks, plenty are going totally anonymous to make their offerings even sweeter. Sure they will run some kind of traffic filtering on them, but corporate VPNs will ensure that we always have tunnels available. So naturally I do think that there is more money to be made, by now it seems getting every wireless data user to use your SSID, that the content industries will most likely fight for a while in the courts before anyone sees any jail time over this.
But who knows because, conservatives!!! They can pretty much run over everyones rights unchallenged in this country these days.
" never mind any DNA evidence the thief left at the scene (hair, blood if he cut himself, skin, etc)."
Dude, have you ever had anything stolen? Did the police give even one fuck to you?
Perhaps if everyone in the neighbourhoods copper was being ripped off, it would make them look bad enough to do something. But no cop is going to do a DNA test "down at the crime lab" because you lost even a few thousand dollars worth of copper, which I would assume is far more than is contained in your standard 1500 sqft house. For instance, ( http://www.recyclexchange.com/a/view/0415.html ) currently has 1 ton of copper wire for $1200 USD.
Reality = Insurance pays, you pay more and some crack head gets high. Legalize drugs is the answer.
You obviously never had a mouse infestation. Shitting on and in everything, everywhere, on you at night, etc.. Making your family sick. You kill 9 and the 10th gets away and a month later there are 10 again.
fuck mice dude, they either survive or they dont. But its completely irresponsible of scientists to allow genetically modified animals into the wild because "it rained more than we were used to!".
In the lower mainland, I have not seen any reports of it being felt. Same with most of vancouver island. It was up by prince rupert and haidia gwaii. So for the most part, that area is sparsely populated. The closest major city would be prince rupert with a pop of 12,508.
But there is actually another small plate called juan de fuca that buffets the lower mainland (pop 2.5 million) as well as part of the northern US.
I guess no one really knows what this means in terms of more earthquakes down south in the populated areas. Earthquakes seem to be completely unpredictible. And living on the coast, you do tend to read up often about this particular threat.
You want people to be silent their whole lives because they are famous? Even obviously unintentional fame?
I can't remember him making too many overt political statements before. And besides, I hope to even americans what he is saying is completely obvious. You understand the whole world follows your elections right? Whose fault is that???
You are talking about decisions made by what seems to be an at least 48% insane people, which has repercussions for the fate of humanity, in various ways. People in the rest of the world have no choice but to pay attention and have opinions on it - please do not mistake it for adoration. Do a fucking better job america and you wont have the founder of linux saying mean things about you on the internet. Yes, I guess in the end it doesn't matter.
There is quite a bit of evidence that he stole this election though. Even though we had a great system, when you have harper's people calling people and telling them that their poll location has changed, only calling NDP and liberal voters. Well he should be strung up for fraud and treason. No poll locations had ever changed.
"I'd see it, I'd remember it, I just wouldn't be shocked or really care."... "Many people die, get tortured and killed every single day. I am well aware that it happens but I can't waste my life worrying or caring about all of them."
I think its a bit different when its there in your face in full 1080p. Hell I have seen movies, read fictional books, that have disturbed me, and I knew they were fake. I believe you are just naive and posturing. The true horrors are the ones just outside of your imagination. And in this case, there are even videos to help you along.
I feel like if the anarcho-libertarians around here go their way, civilians would all have modern technology while cops are forced to run around in loincloths with sharpened sticks.
So recording personal information in a database by a private corporation (run by civilians), would be allowed to happen in your country? On public land? So then the premise that civilians are held to a less account is clearly false then, yes?
"One would think that the ostensibly geeky audience of this site would understand that technology advances, and when it does, it helps everyone."

If you could search distinctly, as you say, by "brand model and milage" then the seller would have to type it in into separate fields. The buyer would need to know exactly what they want, and craigslist would have to have a billion sub categories or attributes for every conceivable product. Craigslist search can use some work in some places, but simply typing in the brand or model would get you a list of cars. Kms may be a "nice to have" feature, but it hardly makes the site "crap". ditto with apartment rentals. The information is there, but you obviously have to use search terms. In apartment rentals even you can filter by bedrooms. Anything else is just frill.
But don't get me wrong. I love padmapper and used to love byebyelist, and they have tried to shut those down. CL is still one of the most useful websites and i am more impressed with how they have kept pure. If this is the price to pay, I am happy to pay it. I mean look what google has gone and fucked up their homepage with graphics, a million different products, autocomplete, autosearch, thumbnails and precaching websites, etc.. More often if people change software products, they just screw them up.
So its nice and I for one think admirable, that craigslist has veered hardcore the other direction. Only changing things when absolutely positively, 100% necessary for most users.
And I use craigslist every single day. You may want to try making some RSS feeds if you are having trouble with search. Then you can be really specific with keywords and let the computer do the legwork for you.
Restrepo dude. Afghanistan has a culture of repelling invaders. As in, it is in their shared cultural heritage and defines them as a people. It should be one of the last reformed places on earth. They just want to be left alone.
More developers should have the balls and control to do this. Kudos. But i have watched BBC.Panorama.2012.Homs.Journey.into.Hell. So you could say i am a bit biased. Burn that asad guy at the stake! war criminal beyond belief.
"I would suggest that one of the major reasons that US still uses Standard measurements in engineering has to do with "network effects" that date to the two world wars. During the second world war, European factories were heavily bombed and after the war they needed to be re-tooled. In contrast, American industry tooled up for the war, (using standard measurements) but was never bombed, leaving a surplus of high quality tools, many of which are still serviceable to this day"
Canada changed to metric in the 70s. This was well after world war 1 and 2. Canadian industry was not bombed during either war.
"You don't like people's lifestyles and you want to change them..that's Controlling and AGW is the club you are using to achieve it. I guarantee you, you will get a great big Fuck You from the majority of people when you take this approach. You will from me anyway."
It doesnt matter how stubborn you are, you cant stop the train. The environment IS changing. People ALWAYS have to be saved from themselves before its too late. Anti Global climate change people are pretty much the stupidest people i have ever met. "I dont want to change AT ALL, so im just going to stick cotton in my ears". How terribly short sighted and selfish. Grow up. Look at the bigger picture.
But just out of curiosity, why do you think that people are "pretending" that this is happening? What is the goal here? Do you honestly believe that there is some big conspiracy to "keep america down" or some such thing? I really do not understand this totally backward view some people on slashdot have. You just don't want to feel guilty? and you will damn humanity because of that? How terribly fucking childish!!! GROW THE FUCK UP
"Despite all the fancy electronics and the UI, it still seems to be difficult to get a glass of beer rather than a glass of mostly foam. Surely there is some solution to this problem in a combination of hardware and software?"
It doesnt even work! What they added: - a touch interface which downloads your facebook photo - solenoids to control the beer taps (useless) - thats it
And to answer the authors question, the reason they are probably getting too much head is any one of the following: 1) incorrect temperature 2) wrong diameter / length of beer hose 3) wrong PSI on c02 injection 4) its overcarbinated because of point #3 and needs to bleed 5) contamination 6) air leaks in tap / fittings 7) unlcean equipment
Im all for novelty, but this is crap. If you want to see a better project, here are 358 pages of them: "Show us your keggerator" thread.
"Despite the paniced bleatings, I firmly believe that companies should not be subject to lawsuits for co-operating with police or reporting people who are abusing their systems to perform illegal activities. "
Wow way to miss the point there! If they don't have a court order, then why the hell do you assume that their actions will be limited to "activities determined to be illegal". You do know the *purpose* behind a court order, dont you?
I can see what you are saying. It is easy to distrust all authorities when the predominant one for the last few thousand years has been preaching a) a horrible outcome if we do not submit to a worldview of destruction b) based on a complex system that was invisible to the naked eye.
but in this case, the "larger than yourself" system is the planets ecosystem. A system whose properties and boundaries have been determined and analyzed using the scientific method. The church on the other hand is just blind faith. I choose numbers over faith. Its a kind of gambling I guess.
Denying global climate change because you feel self empowered by the death of god is not the way forward. It really is a problem of apocalyptic proportions. Just because you believe human intellect is what, infallible? how do you think it got that way? Science and Reason. Science didn't choose just now to start being insincere.
"And what does it matter? Is my refrigerator a walled garden because it's hard to get into and fix? Is my dishwasher a walled garden?"
You have OBVIOUSLY never done appliance repair in your household. Most appliances have a drop away panel or backplate, that when removed, has ALL schematics, part numbers, wiring diagrams and in some cases full manuals taped to the inside. In short, the most help by the manufacturer that is physically possible in how to repair your unit. Not an afterthought, this is the industry standard practice. Boy did you pick a bad example!
"My car now has a fancy computer that needs a special adapter and software to interface, is that a walled garden?"
Actually, i believe that is the definition of walled garden. engha!
Wow. The germans are so pragmatically smart. No wonder they rule europe currently. This is exactly what every countries laws should say. It shows so much respect for the citizen. Even the words they used, as long as you are not trying to "enrich yourself". Which clearly defines the boundaries where you can stop abuse from happening to you - legally. This was not a theft. It was damage to someone elses property. To deform the example a bit, if it was not a phone but a giant rubber dildo, even if it cost $1000, should i just have to sit there and take the abuse of having it waved in my face?
The law should read; if people do not back off when you have given them sufficient notice, then anything after that is fair game. How does the paparazzi sticking their camera through windows of cars or whatever, do not count as harassment? that is the real miscarriage here.
That guy is a complete xenophobe. I wouldn't trust a word he said. He goes on "crusades" liberating Egyptian relics from museums in other parts of the world. He personally dictated if you got to see off limits spaces, off limits relics in "his" sites in the country.
He got kicked when the fascists were overthrown.
That said, this is very interesting because that is the one mystery left (unless there is another door:P). Is there alien shit in there? is it just a pile of poop? If you watch any recent documentary about the pyramids, its always leaves you with a mysterious allure of the It is like finding jimmy hoffa or something.

If this had occurred 500 km south, we would have had some major damage. Judging by this cbc article of eyewitness reports:
