Madonna recently left Warner for Live Nation apparently for the cash. Interestingly, Live Nation does not appear in the members list of the RIAA. Coincidence?
4. The password policy in place requires users to change their password periodically and be of a certain complexity level. Most users have their SafeBoot password written on a piece of paper and taped to their machine, now... This is why my co-workers and I always stick a label below the latop and write my latest password on it.
Making our ethanol out of the leftover waste materials is probably the only way ethanol will ever take off in this country. Who needs ethanol when you can go directly to hydrogen, and not just from crops. Microbes churn out hydrogen at record rate
Actually, it would be possible, according to TFA, to mount these sensors on the outside of a vehicle. So yes, it would help with the curb. Now imagine adding this to an aircraft, it would make piloting much more intuitive as you could potentially feel the airflow.
We're a tiny weenie bit off-topic but for argument sake...
Just like those thrown wooden crates of tea could have hit a fisherman - that just happened to be there during the "rebellion" - on the head. Give it enough mass and momentum and it becomes a lethal weapon.
Canada is not a "small" country - geographically speaking. Sure, there little Apple presence in places like Tuktoyaktuk or Ikaluit but it doesn't mean there's no Apple dealers in Montreal or Toronto. Then again I havn't been to Tuktoyaktuk or Iqaluit so there may be one there. All my relatives have some version of the iMac.
I agree. My biggest concern is also the language and the medium rather than the file format.
Whatever is worth keeping for a long time should be on paper and translated in more than one language. Who knows, in 700-800 years, the English we know today will likely no longer be the same. I can barely read Shakespeare and that's only 500 years old and not too technical.
I doubt that the now common CD/DVD/BlueRay/HD-DVD will be available in a few centuries.
Then again, maybe no one will likely care about this old stuff anyways. We tend to like to give ourselves a lot more importance than we probably deserve.
In that time, I'm ready to bed, we - of course, if we're still around to observe anything; will have mastered the laws of nature to the point where we will be able to shape the universe in any form we like. So any prediction that doesn't take this into account is flawed. The same way we're influencing climate on Earth, we will influence the "climate" of the universe.
this could also be made to filter essential nutrients. A notable use would be to dust it over a crop of opium plants maybe with the ability of filtering the active ingredients. It would be unseen and undetectable until it hits market making the product worthless.
Since dinosaures "evolved" into birds, does it means that we humans might eventually fly like birds do? I wonder what the airlines and the aircraft industry have to say about this. After all, if evolution is what it is, ie natural selection, there is plenty of "evolution" left to do! Looking at the size of NBA players, I can see where were heading.
I didn't read TFA and INAL but could you not simply write a registered letter to Yahoo, AOL, Google, et al. to inform them that you now refuse their license agreement and that you are cancelling your account? You can also then request in that letter that any information about you, stored searches, IP address records, etc be completely and permanently erased from all media, including but not limited to tape backups, off-site storage, etc... Once it's sent, it should protect you from any exposure as part of a potential subpoena. Any information they pull should not be admissible - as long as you keep your records in order.
INAL but it seems to me that citizens have rights above what is stipulated in such agreements. The constitution of the USA allows you to bear arms. If a contract you accepted violates those rights, then the contact is voided. In this particular case, Blizzard can call it murder if they want but it simply wont hold-up.
It looks to me like they simply reverse engineered the code in order to provide additional features. Something similar to changing a Microsoft DLL for my own which would allow better access to non-Microsoft file formats.
It doesn't make their application ethical but I don't see how it would be illegal.
Banning the Internet pretty much equates to banning education. Maybe it's time to return to the stone age. I hear there were less climate change issues back then.
Next we'll see MS shareholders suing Microsoft for the lower than expected sales of Vista. Unprecedented demand for Windows 2000 and Windows XP force Microsoft to reconsider Vista
Most humans all already 15% sheep. Some will say that if government has it's way, we'll soon see than percentage increase. Can the experiment really be to perfect the process then apply it to reverse humans and make them more like sheeps? Is Microsoft sponsoring the work?
Someone's vulture is another's capitalist. SAP has acquired a number of relatively small companies themselves but nothing like Oracle vs PeopleSoft but keep watching...
This is actually great and should server as a reminder to us all.
We should continue to submit rediculous patents just to show how counter productive software patents in general actually are. Anyone still have their first year CS course notes? There should be plenty of material to patent!
I don't mind they patent a hammer but not how it's actually used.
Remember when we thought there was only one continent, one planet (and a flat one), one sun, one galaxy? Now we have the concept of multiple (even infinite) universes! I wonder who will discover the first external universe.
We should adopt a naming convention for new universes.
This explains why Gates is not running. He's waiting for Jobs to do so then Gates will inexplicably steal the elections. It will later be discovered that the voting machines ran Windows for Democracy.

How about for helping CSI folks reconstruct CCTV footage of a crime.
Maybe even for UFO researchers get more details on so called video footage of a "real UFO."
Not sure if additional information can be extrapolated from the technique (I didn't read TFA), but it can potentially be in fact very helpful.

I think the city and the park's name originate from the river's name. A 300km river is hardly "tiny."

Because hard drives with liquid filled implants remind you of those 32DD belonging to Bianca Beauchamp.
I'll go even further...

Now who wants to bed?

I must be a computer/cyborg. I have trouble reading 50% of captchas (on first try). Can't wait to get this enhancement.

They may have a point as Microsoft "open sourced" their OS http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2006/jan0 6/01-25EUSourceCodePR.mspx. No doubt they went through it and discovered some bugs.

Benedetto Vigna should read this report http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/31
To fly we observed how birds did it, then instead, built wings as used in airplanes today, instead of wings like birds have.
Now if only I could get my hands on a Wii...
