Maybe Yahoo! should fix their mapping software first. Whenever I use them to find out how to get from point A to point B, they always seem to give me directions with a longer route rather than the shortest one. Same thing with Mapquest.
".... the group recently imposed a 25-cent annual charge on.com,.net,.org,.biz,.info, and.name domains. With the forthcoming.net charge, ICANN's cut of those domain name registrations would increase to $1 a year."
I haven't seen this mentioned yet, but has anyone else noticed that the previous five (out of eight) tests of the tracking and targeting system were highly scripted?
In earlier testing of tracking and targeting systems, which critics derided as highly scripted, missile interceptors went five-for-eight in hitting target missiles.
The current chief weapons tester, Thomas Christie, said in a written reply to Reuters that the test, if successful, would increase confidence that the system "has some operational capability against a North Korean threat ballistic missile."
Coyle said the tests so far and the coming one gave him no such confidence.
"The target launch time and location, the flight trajectory, the point of impact, what the target looks like, and the make-up of other objects in the target cluster have all been known in advance to plot the intercept," he said. "No enemy would cooperate by providing all that information in advance."
I don't see how this system will ever work unless our attacker warns us in advance of the missile's launch time, its location, flight trajectory,....etc. What a waste of taxpayer money. People should be outraged.
"The modified consoles, some holding 15 or more games already copied to the hard drive, were on open display in the stores.
"They were burning games onto the hard drive and equipping the hard drive with copying software so that the average consumer could just go ahead and copy the software themselves," she said."
But would this be illegal if I purchased and owned the games already? I find this to be very useful as I could then "burn" all my games to my XBox's HDD and then put away the game CDs and not ever have to worry about them getting scratched, lost, or stolen.
Funny thing is, I didn't even have to do a search. It's right there on their main page, right next to where it says "Popular Searchs." Just click on "Internet Service."
And the people I know who are signing up are signing up so they can get free Internet service from them. Have you ever tried calling AOL to cancel your account? They'll offer you a month "free" if you stay with them. And then when you call a month later to cancel, they offer you another free month. How does AOL expect to survive with that kind of business model?
Last month, the company released a new version of its software designed to lure new subscribers with antivirus software and other online safety and security features.
When will AOL learn. People are leaving because competitors are offering cheaper and faster services. If you want to stay competitive, lower your prices. People are not going to continue to pay $23.90/mon. when they can get DSL for a couple dollars more, or dial-up for less than $10/mon.
I'm sure someone will eventually figure out a way to transfer the video from the PVR to one's computer. Then just edit out the commercials and burn to DVD.
For pirating U2's next CD before it's official release!
I could understand not bothering to RTFA, but the submitter clearly wrote, "The custom iPod will be made available the same week as the new album, which is slated for release in the U.S. November 23rd."
In other words, the U2 iPod will be released when U2's new album is released.
I was thinking the exact same thing. I'm thinking that Apple will either:
1) Include a gift certificate inside each U2 iPod box to download the songs,
2) Put the songs on the iPod so that they can only be accessed when as a harddrive to give you a chance to copy them to your computers HDD,
3) Put the songs on a CD/DVD and put that in the box (I think this would be the least likely since it would then cause further problems with Apple Corps.)
4) Include a mail-in coupon to get the songs on CD/DVD.
is MP3 Search. They sell tracks for $0.10 and no DRM either. Worried about giving your credit card to them? That's why I use a Virtual Account Number instead.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to ask Gillian Anderson to see if she's interested first?

Correction, that would be a $5.00 fee.

.... And I'll profit!

Sorry, but Dell does not manufacture their own PCs.

submit it again. maybe they'll do a dupe on it.
and then get a shit load of spyware, viruses, etc. at the same time? No thanks.
And that would be a bad thing?
That's why I just sit around all day and talk to myself.
for those photo bloggers.
Sucks being a geek.
*Sigh*
Not only that, but having other 419 scammers find out that you (a 419 scammer) were scammed would be pretty embarrassing too.

Um... Intel realized that when they switched to Processor Numbers earlier this year.
Nothing for you to see here. Please move along.
