As a systems admin, I don't want to fuss around with kernels, deciding between a distribution, and all that jazz. With an educational discount, Windows 2003 server costs my department $142 (sure, it's more in a commercial environment), I can install it, set it up, run updates on it once in a while, run the baseline security analyzer on it, and forget about it. Give me a linux that does all this in an easy to use manner, and I'll switch. Sure, I could use apt and the others, but it just takes too much time, and you have to worry about various dependencies and what not. I'd like nothing better than to run a Unix variant, but until you bring me a monolithic distribution that just works, I'll have to stay Microsoft for now.
He could of introduced plenty of bills supporting his current election platform as a senator, why didn't he? What makes you think he'll do it now if elected president? Just asking.
According to news.com.com: The television had just exceeded its warranty. My guess is the guy didn't buy the extended warranty and had to tell someone about it (those guys at Best Buy?)

I don't know why anyone would bother with eMule anymore. The Horde is probably the best implementation of an anti leech system I've ever seen, and more importantly, it works well. You partner with other clients, and you both exchange parts you both need. Takes care of the leeching problem nicely, and gets you your download in a timely manner. Highly recommended.
If you haven't read the New Frontier series of books by Peter David, you should. The characters and story lines would make a great series, and would bring back the old feeling of the series that made it great.
Read this article about the NAB and XM radio, and all the stuff that the NAB has done over the years, and you'll be sick. The NAB makes Microsoft look like a saint.
So, if I buy some MPAA edition Cognac glassses, they would only work in certain countries, and only stay upright on certain MPAA approved tables? Also, I could not take pictures of them or share them with anyone else. Very poor analogy.
Rumor was that the new SkyFi 2 was going to have USB connectivity built into the home cradles to provide XMPCR functionality. Now though, it seems like this will go away, which is a real shame. Also, the USAtoday article says that the most of the current radios cannot be hooked up to the computer, which is just wrong. Anything you can hear, can be recorded. My question is, it seems pretty obvious to me that someone was going to do this, so why release the PCR at all? My guess is that they didn't want to offer online streaming like Sirius and wanted to pick up extra subscriptions for PCRs. Look what that got them. In any case, XM has a neat product and is doing well.
I don't know about that. If I were the CEO of Shell, or BP or the others, what would you rather sell? A product that is expensive, has to be dug/pumped out of the ground, refined, etc, or would you rather sell Shell branded fusion reactors or low cost energy from your Shell branded power plant? No one is holding fusion back, it's just somewhat underfunded. I'm also fairly certain that there is a lot of private funded research on fusion as well.
Let's face it, cable companies can offer one thing that the phone companies can't, and that's television. If this FTTP thing works out, things are going to be great. More choices is always a good thing. If they build their own fiber, they won't have to share, which I think is one of the things that are holding things back. I realize that regulation got us into this mess, but it's time that the phone companies grow up and do something about it, instead of whining about it.
While this is an extreme hack and what not, you'd be surprised about how much resistance there is to security on a university setting. When my university installed email/virus scanning software, it was a HUGE deal and nearly wasn't installed because of concerns of academic freedom. When I suggested turning on the Windows Firewall on Faculty PCs, I was told that it was a no no because it could interfere with Academic freedom. Freedom above everything else is the university motto.
You see, if even one of these items gets 'DiVX' certified, all bets are off. By providing what consumers want (DRM issues aside), they hope to blunt some of 'the damage'. Speaking of DiVX, the Philips DVP-642 DVD player with DiVX is an amazing device, and only $69.99 to boot.

Fastius Tasty-us and Apetitius Giganticus, are among the various latin type names that they get, which varies in every cartoon.
Nothing is free. They pay for all of that with very high taxes.
Just ask Gregor Mendel.

Looks like it'd be pretty hard to mod this PS2 design.
...by buying AMD next time I build a computer. Shame on them.
I wonder if the NAB is going to protest that having all this bandwidth is 'unfair competition', and not to mention cable/Comcast.

What's telling is North and South Korea. North is almost 100% dark. See this link for a close up.
I'm surprised that it hasn't been mentioned, but does this support the broadcast pira^H^H^H^H protection flag?

there isn't enough violence for me and we need to regulate it to get more.

He envisons a Microsoft DRM WMA future with Janus and its ilk. That's what he wants anyway, but he won't get it.
