Inkblot Passwords

only for awhile.. then the users will remember the password.. then im sure you would be able to "hide" the inkblots.. unless you forgot something. This is only being used to help a normal user not use "sex" or "spike123" as their password.
I hate to think that we will be moving to digital cinema in the near future... ultimatly.. it is just like watching the best tv screen in the world as opposed to watching 24 cells flicker through light, which can be quite hypnotic and wonderful and should never go away.
Video needs to stop pretending that it's film. These are two great mediums and George Lucas needs to see that.
I am for a multi medium projector setup at theatres.. but I assume that execs and such who don't know cinema will see the cost difference, and actually be only pro digital, which could be the fate of the film.
Someone needs to start getting a community together now against the digital projection as a standard or the only standard, so that film still has a chance.
I find that it is bennificial to troubleshooting network issues and program problems... I enjoy the feeling of thinking of 12,000 things at one time. I don't take any drugs, and never have wanted to. Sadly my organizational skills are hindered dramatically. I also can't expand on this issue anymore because I have to go do something else.
despite the humor implied, this seems like it would be a problem... This is the first thing I thought of upon reading.

802.11g Slows Down

· Score: 4, Insightful
the IEEE didn't make a mistake.. This spec had to be approved by them and the current 802g products on the market aren't IEEE certified. Now that they got arround to cert'ing it they brought down the speed, thats all.
Try reading your contract agreement.. If it doesn't mention it.. you are in the clear.. if it does, you need to learn how to make your NAT gateway not reveal the IP TTL.
That is.. if you are actually worried about anything.
Suppose you had 8 billiard balls, and one of them was slightly heavier, but the only way to tell was by putting it on a scale against another. What's the fewest number of times you'd have to use the scale to find the heavier ball?
This seems normal.. Companies often need that initial capital so they will promise a lot upfront, give you your movies for awhile then make you wait once they have you "hooked".
And hopefully you won't notice this since your first couple weeks of subscription, you had excellent response times.
The Inquirer like everyone else has updated their story...:
Update
It would appear that the original version of the story was correct. Intel has put the 800MHz FSB 3.0GHz P4 on hold. We received the following statement from Intel:
"Due to recent analysis, and given our commitment to quality, Intel will be placing the Pentium 4 processor at 3.00 GHz with an 800MHz bus on ship hold temporarily. In the course of our final testing in our validation lab environment, we have observed an anomaly on a very small number of the 800MHz bus processors. We are working to understand and resolve the issue and we hope to ship this new processor as soon as possible."
Are you defending flash 6? Do you work for sorenson? What are you saying?
Thats all fine that it uses the sorenson video codec, and thats fine if its the same as quicktime.. You are missing the point.
It IS being compressed and it isn't displaying 29.97fps. This is what it was most likely shot at and the flash file is not displaying at that speed.
The reason I said it would be hard to tell where the computer generated *break* in reality is, is because im watching it ON a computer, vis a vis a codec that is digital. Thus seeing the compression artifacts, and then making it even harder to spot one frame of generated images.
You are probably the type of person to go into best buy and try to show how much smarter you are than their tech department. Get a life.
What this version of the video has in it's favor is it is compressed in the flash format.. So it all is "masked" by the compression that flash uses so it would be pretty hard to actually tell where the 1 frame of computer generated cell is... In fact.. during the compression, that frame may be non-existant anyways.

Hopefully the porn industry latches onto this technology.

I personally have a 30 character one that is locked in my brain now... but only use it for things I would actually be worried about.

Microsoft really means "the ability to overwrite and combine IE and the API"
because I just put away 180 bucks at a local casino, and I may have been able to see this article earlier.
funny but.. *bitting*
Those screens were actually someone in the theatre taking a picture of the screen...
Notice the keystone effect in the original image?

if you haven't heard.. WEP is hackable.

We will just have to wait... the 28th might not detail Universal and that could all be speculation.
Wouldn't it be sweet though if they did make this move because of apple, and then it turns out to just be a rumour?

That one is simple.. because any other shape would allow the cover to fall in.. But what about the others??
What kindof answer do you think you would say? What are you supposed to reference for the gas station question?
Does microsoft want me to say that I would assemble my blinds with the latest bluetooth spec and then controll it from my computer?

I would sell it for probably 400.. I dont use it and haven't used it really....
"If you need more than 64 GB of solid state storage, you probably shouldn't be running on an Intel."
If you need more than 64GB, why are you spending it on RAM? Get laid!
