It seems to me that requiring a boarding pass is less about increasing security and more about reducing the number of people passing through the security checkpoints. Can you imagine how long the lines would be if friends and loved ones were still allowed to see you off/meet you at the gate?
Typically, the camera body is the least-expensive of a photographer's equipment. The real money is in the glass -- without high-quality (read: expensive) lenses, that $300 camera might as well be a paperweight.
If they took a moment and actually learned for a few hours, it would make the implementation part much more effective, but people shun learning when they can just use what they already know as their hammer.
But, wouldn't you say that doing is an important part of learning? There's only so much one can absorb by reading a book. If we never implemented something incorrectly, we would never have the opportunity to learn from our mistakes.
The changelog of recent Mac-On-Linux releases show that the developer is moving toward a release that will build and run on both Linux and OS X. The latest development snapshot compiles cleanly on 10.3, but fails to run (perhaps it's just my inexperience that prevents it from running). I've seen reports in the Mac-On-Linux mailing lists that other users have gotten Mac OS 9.1 to run in MOL on OS X 10.2.
If you show your brand on 100 sites then you've increased your brand awareness, and you should pay those sites based upon the amount of advertising real-estate that you've used. You don't pay a magazine based upon the number of people who bought your product whilst reading an article, you pay a magazine based upon the number of people who read the article, and may have noticed your advert. Same with television, same with radio. Why should the web be any different?
The web isn't any different. While some advertisers still track click-throughs, many of the ads you see on websites are run on a Cost-Per-Impression model, meaning that the publisher gets paid each time an ad is viewed by a site visitor. Those ad views, or impressions, are counted by the advertisers. By blocking ads, you are depriving the publisher of ad revenue.
Obviously, you are free to ignore those ads, just as you are free to get up and take a leak or switch channels during a TV commercial break.
It's also the publisher's bandwidth, and as many others here have already pointed out, server bandwidth costs can be very expensive. If you don't like the conditions of viewing free* online content, then please don't visit those sites.
A click-through response isn't necessary. These days, a great deal of online advertising is sold on a Cost-Per-Impression model, where the webmaster gets paid a small amount each time an ad on their page is viewed. So by blocking the ads, you're cheating the webmaster out of their ad revenue.
Constantly using the LCD for composition and shooting will suck your batteries dry *very* quickly. My Olympus C4040Z will drain a new set of 4 AA's within a few minutes if I leave the LCD on, so I do most of my composing in the tiny optical viewfinder.
Opening a connection is not a problem in an of itself, it's when your web browser happily passes along these connection requests to the underlying system by direction of a link or meta-refresh embedded in a web page.
I'm not suggesting we through out all protocol handlers besides http(s) in our browsers, but at the very least, there should be some sort of system alert window that tells the user what is transpiring.
Note that GNOME (and I'll bet KDE, though I'm not familiar enough with KDE to know) also took this broken security design from Microsoft, and it's even bets that they have some of the same problems.
Yes, KDE's Konqueror suffers the same problem. Pass it a URL prefixed with ssh://your-server.com and it opens an ssh session Terminal window.
Perhaps the point is to bring clustering out of esoterica put a user-friendly interface on it, like Apple has done with it's auto-configuring Xgrid technology.
Their students will lack the access to information that other students might have.
Whatever happened to ethernet cable? Not that I disagree with the parent comment -- this case is complete BS -- but turning off a wireless network is not going to deprive these kids of an internet connection. In fact, wouldn't a wired network save the school district money, both in terms of hardware and maintenance?
Rampant filesharing on college campuses is a huge problem, and not just for copyright issues. P2P sucks up an extraordinary amount of bandwidth, taking it away from those with legitimate needs.
Actually, Rendezvous is very closely integrated with iChat. In the iChat preferences pane, you can choose "Enable local Rendezvous messaging" as seen in this screenshot.
The "Rendezvous" software of Tibco is messaging software. Apple's is networking configuration.
Rendezvous is mainly a networking/peripheral configuration system, but it does possess messaging components via iChat, so it's possible a judge could see significant overlap between the two products.
For once they were watching a movie that requires more than one sitting to really comprehend. IMHO, Hollywood needs to do this more often instead of constantly shovelling out brain dead crap aimed at the lazy lowest common denominator.
The reason many people didn't get the end of Reloaded is because 99% of the movie was braindead crap action sequences that suddenly ended with The Architect very quickly rattling off a textbook's worth of dimestore existential philosophy to explain What It's All About. It was a very jarring and poorly executed transition.
Motion pictures are a VISUAL medium that must maintain pace and continuity, and you can't expect your audience to shift gears that quickly without losing them.
Every day they delay is another couple hundred thousand dollars drained out of SCO's war chest by expensive lawyers.
Yes, but every day they delay squashing this problem is another day the FUD being spread by SCO chases away current and potential customers of AIX and their Linux server business.

True, but if you're transferring a bunch of photos and audio files around your home network, 11Mb/s doesn't quite cut it.

Capitalism doesn't know patriotism, it's purely opportunistic.
Hey...Americans didn't invent prison rape...we just made it into an HBO series.

We're talking about college kids here, not research scientists. Don't be so kneejerk.
...the article title as Flamebait?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...
and NO.
Do I need to make it any clearer?

I wish there was consumer demand for low power destop computing.
Motorola's G3 and G4 processors are known for their low-power consumption, as well as Via's C3 line of CPUs.
