How many times do we have to see he truth before it becomes crystal clear. Companies pull this stuff because they know they can get away with it. White colloar criminals know that the worst they have to face is a slap on the wrist and maybe a little bad PR down the road. Even Milkin walked away a millionaire with boku job offers.
Most of the time the ringleaders are long-gone or retired before the dust even begins to leave the ground.
You're right about that. I live in Newport News and when you see this stuff every day you just don't pay any attention. I moved back to Michigan for a couple of months and the tech-throwback shock was horrible. Dialup 33.6K at best.

Not sure what it is, but from the looks of another user's screenshots it seems to improve font rendering. What can I do for !686? I'm running RH7.3 with Radeon 8500 on one machine and ATI Rage Mobility 128 on another. The fonts looks look crappy. Like reading a page where the ink has bled.
Not to mention that I can't get the screen resolution below max (16KX12K) on my laptop. I've run Xconfigurator a dozen times and tried the CTRL-ALT-Minus trick but it won't change.
I'll not pretend to grok the paper entirely, but a casual read remids me of a classic Far Side cartoon where a bunch of scientists are standing around a chalkboard. On the board is one of the scientist's Grand Unifid Theory. Smack dab in the middle of the equation is the phrase "And then a miracle happens".
This paper reads the same way... "When A is time-independent, this equation has the same form as the time independent Schrodinger equation for a particle (i.e., a Cooper pair) with mass m2eff and a charge e2 with an energy eigenvalue except that there is an extra nonlinear term whose coefcient is given by the coefcient x, which arises at a microscopic level from the Coulomb interactions between Cooper pairs [16]. The values of these two phenomenological parameters must be determined by experiment."
Personally I hold works of entertainment to any standard of accuracy only if they actually claim some sort of historically factual basis.
No doubt British actors are superior (watch this year's Oscars for painful side-by-side comparisons) but it is likely cheaper to produce with American actors.
Want historical accuracy? -watch PBS or the History Channel. Want entertainment? -catch this thrilling movie on DVD.
I remember an interview with, I believe Carl Sagan. In reference to global warming he had a simple response.. somthing like "how conceited of humans to think we could possibly do anything lasting to this planet. The span of the human race is a blink of the eye for the planet. At least three times in the history of the earth, 99.9% of all life has been wiped out. Yet it bounced right back again.".
So it boils(pun) down to our concerns about our species being able to survive. I think the fact that we are the only species capable of modifying our environment to survive in the most inhospitible conditions negates any real concern.
But the real point may be how long we decide to scream about the sky falling when the likely scenario is that the equilibrium will shift in other ways and provide habitat possibilites elsewhere. Just as they have for the entire life of the planet.
Had my Dell Inspiron 8000 for two months when the video started acting skittish. Called Dell customer support. By 9AM the next morning the service representative was at my workplace swapping out the LCD. No muss, no fuss.
I currently dual boot XP and Mandrake 8.1. At one point I was tripple booting 2KL,XP and Mandrake 8. No problems. The ATI M4 viedo card uses the generic ATI Rage 128 driver though in Linux. After a year Dell finally put out a decent video card driver with OpenGL support. Of course, newer models use GeForce cards.
If you work for a big company you get a beefed up 3yr warranty if your company has an account with Dell (most do).
I figure in another 12 or so years my kids will be grown and out of the house and my wife will finally stop talking to me. Short of that I figure I'm sill "practicing" my craft till conditions become ideal.
Even after ten yeas of marriage my wife still doesn't "get it" that each interruption costs me at least 20 minutes to get back into the groove. Thank god the programming I do for a living isn't really complicated.
I find my ideal times for working are from 10am-noon and 5PM to 1AM. Not particularly good when you have a family.
If you can't sit back and just enjoy a movie you really shouldn't be reviewing it for others.
Balde II was one of the best sequels I ever seen. I was glued throught the entire movie. The audience was cheering sporadically.
Do you like martial arts flicks? Did you like "Big Trouble in Little China"? Did you like Spawn? Do you like horror movies? If you answered "yes to any of these then Blade II is the best thing playing this week.
I think this guy will use the fact that Columbus had map charts to use for sailing here. I've read a brief synopisi that tries to chain from early Chinese maps through some Chinese dynasyt that mothballed their sailing fleet and destroyed most recorded history, but that some Spanish silor got ahold of a copy that later resultd in the maps Columbus had. I read the story from a link on DailyGrail.com, a great site for causual reading when your're bored and wondering what all the loonies are doing.
The uestion logically becomes who is responsible. The person requesting the information or the person who legally provided it on the other side of the planet. It all comes down to the government doing somthing it is lothe to do: 1) Crack down of the demand side or 2) make it legal.
I like the GUI interface to Gnucleus. Sure the biological install and update is neat. But if I type in "Andromeda" and get "0" results then its completely useless.
Of course KaZaa is getting so overloaded now that I can't download anything. Looks like I'm going to have to buy a bigger harddrive and start recording the stuff myself.

Certified mail is a waste. The USPS does a poor job of tracking these things. Not to mention all he letter certifies (unless the signature is verified) is that the item supposedly went from point A to point B. From personal experience and reading numerous investigative reports, the reliability of the USPS is very poor. In the past I've had signature papers left on my doorstep and certified letters with the entire form left on the package. I've also gotten plenty of my neighbor's mail and some from street address nowhere near mine. I could go on...
The problem with "fair use" is that it has to be proven and defended on a case-by-case basis. If New Line wants to fight it they wouldn't have a chance of sufficiently marketing it and still get it out for the summer blockbuster season.
I used to have a Mercedes Jeep. Origionally designed as Mercedes bid for supplying UN vehicles. It looked about like this thing, except it has a convertable soft top. The body is made by Mercedes truck division and the drivetrain by the car division. It had nifty featrues like a special lever to lock the universal joints in the drivetrain so sou can rock a stuck vehicle without damaging the universals.
I owned the Jeep for two years in the Mid-East. I spent many a day two-tracking though the desert. I slammed it into rocks. I drove it through sandpits. I even jumped it quite a distance. The skidplate underthe motor was like 1/4 inch thick. The only proble I ever had with it was the throttle cable coming off after jumping it about 15 feet. I'd love to own one again.

Using TrueType Fonts with Red Hat Linux

But then again, what do I know?

Sun want's to be a monopolist (or at least a market leader).
Microsoft IS a monopolist.
So behaviour in one company can be considered being competitive. In another anti-competitive.
