..Because there are cellphone everywhere? But if you find yourself without cellphone in a situation,would some stranger lend you his for a call you want to make?
Oh its about profit...ok.. This is the situation in Denmark. There are practically no pay phones, so if your battery dies you effectively have to lend a cell phone from someone to make a call. Cell phones are cheap here, though, so people usually go along with this.
Not sure it would be as easy in the US, where cell phones are more expensive. Keep your batteries charged:)
No, TCP is connection-oriented, but this connection essentially only matters to the endpoints; the routers only care about the IP info. The idea with flow-based routing is to make the router decide on the collection of packets that constitute a flow, rather than just on the individual packets.

Notice the detail above. It's almost as if you're a social outcast if you're a libertarian, and you have to explicitly denounce yourself in order to just touch the subject. I think this is one of the reasons for the "two party" problem of the US.

In fact, Ballmer only _thinks_ that there exists people who _claim_ that Linux violates their IP. I think that I know someone who claims that he has thought about what it would be like to claim to be someone who doesn't know anything for sure...
I know this may be slightly off topic, but as I was reading up on "1984" on wikipedia I stumbled over the following quote:
"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." - Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering, before committing suicide at the Nuremberg Trials
Shouldn't the article be: "There has been an upsurge in product placements on network television shows, and it MIGHT be caused by TiVo and other 'ad-skipping technologies'"

I think you're confusing WAN with WLAN. WAN == Wide Area Network (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_area_network)
Noooo. Wan't?! What was that?!?!?
Wa not? Want not? WAN not?
*sigh*
Preview lesson learned.
Good idea. I wan't to patent patenting and sue the Patent Office for infringement.
Hope nobody beats me to it...
As far as I recall Double Jeopardy only says that you can't be convicted of the same crime twice. If he wasn't convicted, it doesn't apply.
A new Bonnie and Clyde? Now with lasers?
Good point. But don't you still have the option of not testifying in an eventual court case?

If you're a creationist, everyone in here is a troll. What, with the science-voodoo and all.
"...is in orbit around the Sun..."? Then technically, what they found is not a planet.
Because the night isn't very long on the ISS. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISS: "...completing 15.7 orbits per day".
Score:1, Troll? Shouldn't it rather be Score:-1, Funny?

Wow, he's got a point!
Then you can save 1.5 billion dollars using your own database software...

Oh, and FP!
How many chairs need to be thrown in order to say "Infringes Our Intellectual Property" in Ballmerian? :)
Replace Turkey with "Soviet Russia"... :)

In order to view the article sacrifice your first born on the AJAX altar to the right. Use drag-n-drop pentagrams as necessary.

That is only relative, and says nothing about how "intellectually superior" he is
on the absolute scale.

In the same spirit one could ask: Why does it have to be Oracle?
If it is giving you all this trouble on Linux, why not choose another SQL server? Or is it ok to be bitten by the Oracle bug?
Forty seventh post!
What is this vinyl you talk about?

Seems as relevant today as ever.
