Oops, this was my bad, I was just checking their system to see if it had any of my copyrighted works on it, it's gonna take me months of listening to find out if there was actionable infringement. a-chaka-hoo! Isn't that what us media creators do, access other people's computers without permission over the Internet to see if we can find our copyrighted works on them so we can start suing? Clearly their meager attempts at security are evidence of blatant premeditated efforts to elude detection of possible infringement and global file sharing, which will only make the hammer fall harder.
The map link is good, the linked article has you trapped on that site with no outgoing links and no real information other than "look at this map". Real journalists would also be answering who, what, when, why, and how, the answer to which is that this survey was done as part of "Mobility Fund Phase 1", a $300 million dollar payout by the federal government to mobile telco providers to service these areas. It's a reverse auction, telcos bid to put in 3G and how much it will take the government paying them for them to do it. Perfect opportunity for the phone companies to collude and bilk the taxpayer for the most money, and to make exclusive deals to ensure the most roaming billing possible happens when you are there.
Here's the public notice (pdf), a request for public comments, hidden well enough that nobody in the public will notice before it's too late. From the FCC auction 901 site.
.. For Google too. In fact you can find public Facebook pages in their normal search, too.
What you mean by this is Facebook is just another Google spammer. I tried searching for a local business, and pretty high up is a Facebook page, but you find out it is a "business directory" page that Facebook created for themselves from phone book info just to get web hits and undermine my ability to see relevant information from the business' real pages.
Or remove French. Problem solved.

Just an anecdote, but if you paid cash for the car and put the extra money you paid for the warranty and lease in a bank account to pay for maintenance, you could expect to drive it forever.
No, the actual crux is the rule of law. If a law is broken there should be a punishment. What should that be in the case of software piracy?
Being forced to pay for a $2400 software license that you would have never paid for in the first place? The company is $2400 richer than if the piracy had never taken place, and the defendant is $2400 poorer. Lawyer's fees excepted, where the individual always loses to the corporation.
The problem is hinted at above: you can publish your public key, link to it in signatures, but you can't get anybody to send you encrypted email. Likewise, who can you send encrypted email to?

That is, until the other user imports their contact lists with your email addresses and phone numbers into Facebook, and starts tagging pictures of you, and they correlate others's address books with you in them. Then Facebook has a good idea who you are and who your "friends" are without you ever logging in.
That makes Microsoft a blue-chip stock, like GM or IBM. They are not a bubble rally pump and dump stock. The ultimate value of a company is not what a wall street casino game of money chicken assigns to it, and listening to the gamblers is hardly the course that will find improvement.
"The flaw pointed out in (this) paper is that there is a negative incentive for miners to forward Bitcoin transactions." This is a big derp on the part of these researchers.
There might be 20 pools collectively mining, and maybe 100+ people mining by themselves at this time. They currently have more processing power than the top 10 supercomputers in the world put together. Miners strengthen the blockchain record of past transactions against cryptographic forgery, but their processing power is not what distributes the pre-inclusion transactions to other nodes on the network.
The forwarding of transactions around the network is done largely by the 40,000+ users who have Bitcoin open at any time, and form the peer-to-peer transaction distribution network. They distribute the newest transactions waiting to be included in the blockchain to the miners and to each other, and any miner will want to include any outstanding transactions in the next block theyadd to the blockchain, so they can earn the associated transaction fees.
If one mining pool doesn't forward transactions waiting to be included in the blockchain, then the dozens of connections each peer has to each other will distribute it everywhere else on the network in about a second anyway.
I just wrote a song, called "The Box", A sample of the lyrics: "I just rented Netflix and dropped it in the box, never again. I just went to the Redbox, put money in the box, never again. I just went to iTunes, typed my credit card in the box, never again." I just played it on my guitar and recorded it too, uploaded it to my website. I have never licensed this musical performance recording to appear on any other Internet venue, and have not authorized performance rights of the song to any other entity, with the exception of this lyrical excerpt I hereby licensed to Geeknet, Inc to republish on Slashdot.org.
I therefore am the copyright holder of "The Box". I hereby state that the group of individuals known as "all Slashdot readers" are authorized to act as agents for the copyright holder, myself. I authorize all of you act under the letter of the DMCA law when you have a good faith belief that unauthorized publication of my copyrighted material may have taken place. Use of automated reporting tools against sites like iTunes, etc, where you might think it would appear are encouraged.
Exactly, I was like, "wait, there's no server, it runs IPX over the LAN...." The good ol days, where C&C came with two game discs, so you can give the second to a buddy without needing to buy a second copy, and play LAN without constant permission needed to play the game you bought from game manufacturer's "command and control" DRM servers (tell me India couldn't shut down BF3 through a grand firewall because of DRM.)

So cat fur coats would be okay? Sounds good to me... PETA winter 2011 collection, wear luxurious calico and tabby.
Furs were big in the '60s, when the ultimate gift for a wife was a fur coat and glamour was Zha Zha and Marilyn.
Rotating your AP's MAC every hour should do the trick...

Ok, which is the version with the bugs fixed??
"literally falling down"?
Name me one bridge collapse that was due to repairs that couldn't be afforded.
Done. Now go back to your coward-hole.
Even if they can't do significant figures, at least they told us how big they are in International Hair-Thickness Units...
Not everything is about monetary gain. Sometimes people are just dicks.

This comment is only completely incorrect.
We would have had a $50 web browser with web technology protected by 73 Netscape patents acquired by Microsoft (including blatantly obvious patents they could exploit elsewhere, such as one for just making a menu bar hide, or showing how complex a password is while you type it in - used by many sites right now)
Apparently the UK version with a male voice thinks it's a MI6 officer.
