I think it says more about the science education of the high ranking military officers...that doesn't mean that every idea in a sci-fi novel is worth spending tax money on.
Yeah, what a waste of meoney it'd be if it could only achieve 0.99c .
Google to me was most usefull as a NON-COMMERCIAL tool, to find information, not sellers. There are plenty of places to buy, and I know their websites. I don't need google to show me electronic stores.
Mostly I don't need google to show me so damn many stores. Whyen it was one or two at the top, with minimal screen space, it was, gasp, useful. Now it is approaching something less than useful.
Many of the games were like the Montessori method of teaching.
I've been teaching my 12-yr old daughter how to use a spreadsheet (Gnumeric) with various puzzles I find. I think the forced formality of breaking a problem into pieces that fit into a spreadsheet helps develop problem solving skills - I used a spreadsheet to help me to understand digital filters, for example, and to . I found her a few weeks ago building a spreadsheet to solve a puzzle on neopets. It was some sort of pyramid shaped set of blocks 100x100 at the base, and she had to figure out the cost of all the paint for it, I think. Very pleasing.
For $100,000 per violation, I don't know. My guess is that a violation is a provable installation of the software, which can add up fast if they had as many sales as were reported.
Since the CD will (apparently) only play on Windows-crippled (in the sense that it allows such an intrusive action) machines, then anyone who purchased the "device" (used in the sense of a threat), under the good faith that it will simply provide music, has been compromised. I believe Microsoft is complicit, from a legal perspective, because they provide an operating system that sanctions and facilitates installation of such debilitating software without informed consent - and no, Microsoft's gross distortion of an EULA is not informed consent - one needs to understand what one is signing - hiding it in the verbage doesn't cut it. The lawyers smell blood in the water - and it's gushing.
"I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch too, I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work."

You mean "cat > output.txt"?
Now who would ever read about this on, well, slashdot?
Consider which one wouldn't forget to deploy the sensor package after spending all that time and money to get to the target.
Every state has some sort of general consumer protection law they could claim was violated - if only every state's AG would get on the ball.
Explain to Sony that each coupon can be exchanged for either a free Sony CD or $100,000, at the choice of the victim.
