"Because a law will come and require this kind of tech in all sets"
Then they better also ensure that the power supply for the TV and set-top box are hardwired into the wall, and that the mains fusebox is protected by a combination code. Otherwise, some knucklehead customers are going to switch off the entire setup at whatever access point is available, just out of principle.
For me, the 4th and 5th pages are usually meta-search search pages, which have picked up the results of previous search queries by other people. Sometimes I go to the very last page and there will be a few useful pages but which are not linked to anything else.
California's Bureau of Unclaimed Property do the same with lost bank account transactions. Just enter a surname and city, and you can find a whole list of people from the individual owner search.
Not any more. While you are free to send E-mail using the sendmail protocol, the receiving E-mail servers are equally free to use RBL Blocks (Real-time Block lists) - when an E-mail server receives a delivery request, it checks to see if the source IP address is on a block list. If so, then the E-mail is automatically rejected. Many ISP's with dynamic IP address allocation will submit their entire IP allocations this way.
Could you imagine the implications if they had to turn this data over? Every minor study in the country would be trolling Google for user information.
And developers would probably write their own P2P web search engines. Napster did the keyword search for mp3 files. It would be trivial to modify this for web page searches - each filename would be replaced by a keyword string, while spider searches would be implemented through distributed processing.
If the Feds really want to find a list of IP addresses looking for a particular keyword string, all they have to do is set up a webpage with these keywords in it. For registered advertisers, google provides webpage owners to retrieve list of IP addresses and the matching keywords that made a hit to that site.
Look what happened to Cold Equations. The Twilight Zone version was very tense and concentrated on the decisions made by the pilot. But the remade movie bolted on a corporate conspiracy "only think about the money" theme.
Because they can't really afford to do anything else, especially if they are dependent on the state pension, and are forced to choose between heating and eating.
UK companies don't seem to want to employ anyone over the age of 45 (or even 30 for that matter). The only difference between the early retirees in their mid-50's and the "benefits scroungers" is that the first set had generous company pension schemes, and the latter didn't.
For me, it did work for a while, then the call marketers starting calling from abroad. Which annoyingly meant the APCB no longer applied, since the call was international, but was still anonymous, since the telephone systems don't know how to do international Caller-ID.
It's mainly because the City (London's Financial Centre) offers the highest starting salaries for graduates. Outside of London, being an accountant is considered a good career move because the number of course places available each year is regulated by the professional body.
Usually, they will already have the experience to do that type of work, and so won't have to be really learning that much. That's why there are so many job requirements that require previous experience.
As an example, it's a lot easier to learn a new skill in your own time, that when you are in a workplace environment working to a tight deadline.
To me, being permanently disabled would probably be worse; constantly worrying about medical bills and future infections. Do a google search for "rhinocerebral mucormycosis" and Mark Tatum to see.
It's always been like that. You used to see job adverts in the early 1990's fo r developers with 15 years experience of IBM PC/MS-DOS application development.
Basically, employers are looking for the fast-sprinters; the people who are the very first to learn a new technology without having to be pushed. Which in turn means you have be in one of two places; a company which allows/wants their employees to be working on the latest technology, or a position that allows you to earn enough money to buy the hardware and learn in your own time (assuming you can afford the hardware or have the time). Consequently, you have to avoid dead-end positions which have NCA restrictions or have managers who won't adopt technology they don't understand or trust.
In the UK, Management Consultancy, accounting and becoming a personal trainer are now the two most popular career paths for the most qualified students.
More likely, there weren't any game titles that were on the "must have" list for Japanese. I'm guessing these would be games like "Pokemon", "Super Mario", "Final Fantasy", etc...
That's a comment only discussed by two people. You should see the stuff that results from bouncing up and down through the committees of a corporate division like monster hailstones in a thunderstorm.
I'm genuine interested in that idea. It sounds plausible, like some of the reasons why one guy riding his breaks can cause a standstill three miles back, but maybe you can elaborate?
Because if you build a freeway, you have to add spurs (on/off ramps) to connect with existing roads. These then opens up large tracts of land for developers to build homes and businesses, as the freeway now allows a shorter commute time between commercial and residential areas. Home-owners need cars, and you end up with more traffic on the roads, which leads to more congestion, and eventually, you are back to where you started. And constructing a road, requires that some homes are demolished.
Taken to the extreme, you end up simply demolishing homes simply to build more roads so that people spend more time commuting.
The same principle applies to railway and metro lines. If you build a suburban metro line going out into the countryside, developers will build office blocks/condominiums/apartments above the stations, then shopping malls and fitness centres will follow.
In most UK cities there are small-trader marketplaces where anyone with a permit can set up a stall and sell just about anything - usually these are items like badges, union-jack keyrings, iron-on patch badges, celebration coffee mugs/T-shirts, etc... ), flashing LED pens, mobile phone covers, second hand books/CD's. Anything that can be carried in boxes from the boot of a car. The more dodgy of these traders sell pirated CDs and DVDs at cheap prices ($5 each) - these are obvious because the jewelbox covers would be off-tone and it would be a regular burnable CD/DVD inside.
The trading standards officers regularly visit these places to look for counterfeit products. In the past, if music CD's or film DVD's are being sold, they would be confiscated immediately. Now, since a trader has started selling legally distributable software, the trading standards officers will have to examine each CD in order to read the software license agreement.
The mathematics of rendering and lighting remain the same regardless of the underlying architecture or graphics API. That's the whole point of shading languages; developers can focus on the mathematics without having to worry about the small details (ie. which assembly language instructions are available on which card).
It has also survived multiple mortar attacks,
But more importantly, can it survive a slashdotting?

Close; I believe the usual question is actually "WHAT IF WE CHANGE THE MOON'S ORBIT?", actually.
It's already happening. The moon's orbit is drifting outwards by around 3.8 cm each year (Source: Sychronous.html)

Download it from a internet cafe to an external USB drive. Then your download can't be traced.
Don't forget to edit your robots.txt - You also want to make sure www.archive.org don't save your previous files either.

Would that project be called the "No Stone Left Behind" initiative?

this should be an interesting infinite loop.

Doesn't "Anonymous phone call rejection" work? It worked for me.
