that's why you have multi-factor authentication. Just having a copy is useless. When fingerprints are the only system in place, it's not secure. Retina scans are better- once blood supply is lost the eye will always be different and probably have a detached retina- odds of a Minority Report thing are none I'd guess.
that would make for a good practical joke cube--- just as it's about to get solved, a couple tiles swap while you're rotating and never lets you solve it.
I doubt any judge is ballsy enough to want to set that precedent- though I agree it would drastically cut down the frivolous cases. Perhaps small claims cases could be excluded, but I don't think that would be any more likely to set a precedent. IANAL- just a disillusioned member of the masses.
you're both right. the thread was about mars rovers- you were replying to a mars rovers comment with a general statement about the space program - which is correct- those inventions and jobs have helped a great many people. The reply person, while I disagree with, was generally right in terms of subject in questioning how the mars rovers themselves have benefited people.
Perpetual income from real sales I believe in. If there's a demand for the original CD or the original Book- great for the author. I disagree about perpetual income for music when it comes to royalties for playing it on the air or making covers, etc. I think you're confusing the issue.
Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, the next-generation hypervisor-based server virtualization technology, allows you to make the best use of your server hardware investments by consolidating multiple server roles as separate virtual machines (VMs) running on a single physical machine. With Hyper-V, you can also efficiently run multiple different operating systems--Windows, Linux, and others--in parallel, on a single server, and fully leverage the power of x64 computing.
Key Features of Hyper-V:
* New and Improved Architecture. New 64-bit micro-kernelized hypervisor architecture enables Hyper-V to provide a broad array of device support methods and improved performance and security.
* Broad OS Support. Broad support for simultaneously running different types of operating systems, including 32-bit and 64-bit systems across different server platforms, such as Windows, Linux, and others.
* Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMP) Support. Ability to support up to four multiple processors in a virtual machine environment enables you to take full advantage of multi-threaded applications in a virtual machine.
* Network Load Balancing. Hyper-V includes new virtual switch capabilities. This means virtual machines can be easily configured to run with Windows Network Load Balancing (NLB) Service to balance load across virtual machines on different servers.
* Hardware Sharing Architecture. With the new virtual service provider/virtual service client (VSP/VSC) architecture, Hyper-V provides improved access and utilization of core resources, such as disk, networking, and video.
* Quick Migration. Hyper-V enables you to rapidly migrate a running virtual machine from one physical host system to another with minimal downtime, leveraging familiar high-availability capabilities of Windows Server and System Center management tools.
* Virtual Machine Snapshot. Hyper-V provides the ability to take snapshots of a running virtual machine so you can easily revert to a previous state, and improve the overall backup and recoverability solution.
* Scalability. With support for multiple processors and cores at the host level and improved memory access within virtual machines, you can now vertically scale your virtualization environment to support a large number of virtual machines within a given host and continue to leverage quick migration for scalability across multiple hosts.
* Extensible. Standards-based Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) interfaces and APIs in Hyper-V enable independent software vendors and developers to quickly build custom tools, utilities, and enhancements for the virtualization platform. "
how do they propose not needing a hazmat team stationed at each bin when all of the bulbs break and release mercury into the walmart air environment? Or did I miss something?
PHB: The smell of fresh ficus-- It transports me back to my youth. Summers in the Catskill Mountains. Ah...we'd all go to Turtle Pond to swim and laugh and play games amongst the wild ficus. One day, tragedy struck. A turtle made off with my trunks. I stayed in the water as long as I could but the water was cold.
Soon... A crowd formed.
They gave me a nickname on the spot--
One that still haunts me.
Acorn.
My awful, non-French parents even named their dry cleaning store Acorn. But that's all in the past. What do you have for me?

At some point, someone has to decide that old music isn't worth anything special and hopefully you'll subscribe for the new music. If there's no new music you like, then the industry is the problem.
The way I understood it's supposed to happen is to track the whorls and whatnot as points. It's supposed to be more than a simple image comparison. I thought good biometrics software mapped out a set of relevant points and kept those as a hash to store on your smart-card or whatever so that you can't recreate the print.
I suppose I disagree with Wikipedia there- why not allow encyclopedias so long as they're declared separately and the encyclopedia has its own primary/secondary cites?
Or better, the encyclopedia people who actually write the articles put in direct cites in wikipedia, but perhaps are allowed to then attribute the cite's creation to Whomeverpedia?
me too- only it was majorly cold and my throttle stuck open- only about 2000 RPM, but enough to make me keep going- I put it in neutral and revved and let off a few times and it unstuck.
Not quite- they'd never be able to have inclusioninsm due to each article needing oversight by a board. I don't know whether they also rank contributors knowledge, the article you linked didn't mention it.

Are these the same as the ones on the CSI NY episode like last year?

apparently you don't run a bunch of non-profit sites on your own dime or with a limited budget. Thanks for your support.

hey, I'm using my free hand to type you insensitive clod! Now, I need that hand back.

that was supposed to be a joke, but I'll take "interesting" :)
just chuck the bulbs in and... doh!
how do they propose not needing a hazmat team stationed at each bin when all of the bulbs break and release mercury into the walmart air environment? Or did I miss something?

Brain, is that you? Narf!
lots of people are actually faking it at night from what I understand, especially women.
At some point, someone has to decide that old music isn't worth anything special and hopefully you'll subscribe for the new music. If there's no new music you like, then the industry is the problem.
you mean, selecting only non torrents is totally fine?
Cartman, is that you?
Seriously, I read that in his voice in my head.
The way I understood it's supposed to happen is to track the whorls and whatnot as points. It's supposed to be more than a simple image comparison. I thought good biometrics software mapped out a set of relevant points and kept those as a hash to store on your smart-card or whatever so that you can't recreate the print.
good point.

No, there was a guy somewhere else who claimed he couldn't stop on the highway. IIRC they found nothing wrong with that car either.
After a quick search, it was France:

What are they thinking?
Or this one

from when this first hit slashdot.
Not quite- they'd never be able to have inclusioninsm due to each article needing oversight by a board. I don't know whether they also rank contributors knowledge, the article you linked didn't mention it.
Perhaps Britannica was a bad choice- but what if someone like them devoted their time to updating the research and putting proper cites in wikipedia?
