A problem inherent in a decentralized single signon system is that there are more and more providers popping up, and not all of them are trustworthy or taking the necessary security precautions to lockdown their sites. Caveat emptor, I guess, though. I run my own, and so I'm responsible for my own security.
I sell lightly-used computer hardware (mostly PSUs and cases) on eBay when I'm done using them for a brief period of time. I usually sell things for approximately 25%-40% off of the new price. I have two items which I've listed several times, and neither has sold, even after cutting one down to nearly 40% of its original value. It's not a commodity item, nor is it not in-demand.
eBay just isn't doing it for me any more. I'm going to try Craigslist from now on if I can simply sell things the various forums I peruse.
As many others in the "745 More Comments" have probably said, I've had no problem with my routers not rebooting. I own a WRT54G v2, WRT54GS v1, Buffalo WHR-G54-HP v1, and Asus WL-500W. The WRT54GS has only been restarted when I've upgraded it or when the power has gone out, so that's probably 10-15 times in the past 4 years. The others have had uptimes in the 100 day range because I update them more frequently.
If you don't like the entirety of something, you shouldn't vote for it!
Why?
Eventually, someone will hold you responsible for the part(s) you didn't like, and all you can say is, "But I didn't like that part," to which they will respond, asking, "Then why did you vote for it?"
This is why legislators like Ron Paul vote against things: if they don't like the whole thing, they vote no, no matter how important any one part of the whole is.
Gotta love how LA lawmakers wasted LA taxpayer money creating, discussing, and passing legislation that will be struck down entirely in a matter of months, having had no one actually follow the law during those brief months of effect.
Call your Senators now and remind them who they are supposed to serve--the people, not the government, not private corporations.
Also, look into your state's "vote of no confidence" proceedings. There must be at least one state with enough people and gumption to unseat a senator or representative because of this passage, especially when Dubya signs it.
Study Latin. You'll learn more about English and other Romantic languages than you could ever learn learning a single one of them. However, if you can't be convinced to take up Latin, but want another language quickly, check out Esperanto. If you want another language with which you can communicate with people immediately, find a large contingent of native something speakers at your school and befriend them, i.e. learn a language which your peers can help you learn and practice. It might even score you a girlfriend/boyfriend.
AVG was once a good product. Then, it got bloated and started eating up kernel memory voraciously. It was impossible to play games with it running in the background, especially Crysis (skip the jokes, my system could handle it maxed once I replaced AVG with Avast!). Now, with this development, I'll be sure to replace AVG with Avast! on all of my machines, not just my gaming one.
Every single user of the Internet should be OUTRAGED about this judge's neglect of basic privacy statutes. I dispatched an email to YouTube about this order, urging them to fight it with all their power.
What's the use until programmers start learning effective parallel programming? Right now, it's game developers who are winning that game, with graphics and movie editors right behind it.
I bought most of my books on eBay from international students (I'm in the US). I rarely spent more than $150 per semester until my last semester, which was heavy on liberal arts classes--I paid almost $400 for books that semester! A Physics-major friend of mine had a scholarship which paid for all of his books, which he got new all of the time: his were upwards of $800 per semester, and one semester, he topped $1,000.
Take an IT job and brush up on your shell scripting or Batch/VBscript skills. You can make just as much running an IT department as you could as a senior programmer somewhere.
You could also look into grad school for HCI or IT management--you may never have to look at code again.

Hooray for Launchpad!
I never knew, that German, was quite so, comma-happy.
Can they legally do this? Can Psystar owners be legally required to return their systems, obviously getting their money back?
Mr. Turok, mathematical physicist and dinosaur hunter, to you, pal.
I can finally do the Explode open/close window Compiz effect on my 10 MP display!
A crust that rises.

Exactly. I bet she'll win this one.

war = will
I'm tempted to write a research paper in Esperanto just to contribute to proving your comment correct.
I would mod that comment up if the spelling wasn't so terrible.
And we spend > $100 billion on fighting an undeclared war in a country which has little capability or war to defend itself.
