I think the term you are looking for is "Salami Tactics". I believe that Sir Humphrey Appleby had something to say on the subject. Into the Wayback Machine, Sherman!
"They know if they launched an attack. I'd press the button."
"You would?"
"At the last resort, yes, I certainly would."
"And what is the last resort?... If they try anything, it will be salami tactics."
"Salami tactics?"
"Slice by slice. One small piece at a time. So will you press the button if they invade West Berlin? Riots in West Berlin, buildings in flames. East German fire brigade crosses the border to help. Would you press the button...? The East German police come with them. Then some troops, more troops just for riot control, they say. And then the East German troops are replaced by Russian troops. Button...? Then the Russian troops don't go. They are invited to stay to support civilian administration. The civilian administration closes roads and Tempelhof Airport. The Russian army accidentally on purpose cross the West German frontier. Suppose the Russians have invaded West Germany, Belgium, Holland, France? Suppose their tanks and troops have reached the English Channel and are poised to invade? Is that the last resort?"
"We'd only fight a nuclear war to defend ourselves. That would be committing suicide!"
"So what is the last resort? Piccadilly? Watford Gap service station? The Reform Club?"
So where is the real danger? When your first amendment rights disappear? ("He shouldn't have said that. It's unpatriotic.") Third? ("Support our troops! And have breakfast waiting for them in the morning, please.") Fourth? ("If he wasn't a terrorist, he would have nothing to hide.") Sixth, Seventh and Eighth? ("They're enemy combatants, not people.") Or should you wait until they're all gone to start worrying?
Hey, as long as you have the twenty-first then things are all A-OK, right?
I'm kind of excited about this thing but at $350 you could buy A LOT of paperbacks before making up for the cost.
Or you could buy a good number of comic books which you would then destroy by treating them the same as you could treat an electronic device. Bringing that mint copy of Detective Comics #27 out on the bus with you and stuffing it in your pocket when you get to your stop would cost you enough to buy a thousand ebook readers.
When these systems are vulnerable, it's just as easy for ANYONE to take advantage of that fact. Not one party or one political stripe.
The phrase you are looking for is "Plausible Deniability". If you design a machine that can only be comprimised by a single party then you're clearly a crook. If it can be hacked by a pre-school class with plastic hammers then you can claim to be merely hopelessly incompetant.
If you really want people to watch your advertisements, make them _want_ to watch. Make them interesting. People will go out of their way to watch them at least once, and share copies with all of their friends.
Of course, the down side to this is that you may have to actually pay someone to do the job.
Sure, losing power will also lose you the services on the cloud but your business most likely has bigger problems to worry about when the power goes.
Yeah, like the fact that you're trapped in an elevator and the VOIP phones suddenly, mysteriously, stopped working at the same time as the power went out.
Burger King, an international chain of restaurants which has been in business for over 50 years, designs a new mascot and gets 127,220 MySpace friends.
Christine Dolce, an unemployed twenty-something cosmetologist who may well have been conceived in the parking lot of a Burger King, bleached her hair and took off her shirt to get 1,022,716 friends.
I think the jury is in on just what the Internet is used for.
I _think_ you can run as many as physically possible in your box.
You can run as many as are physically possible on your _network_. If you were a major cable-hound, or running a PVR service for your entire building, you could stash a room full of back-end servers in the basement with half a dozen tuner cards each and then network them to tiny front-end machines that sat on top of everyone's TV.
There really is no limit to how many channels of late night porn you can record.
More than that it was the first TV series to show black people in the future. While watching everything before Star Trek you really had to wonder what happened to them all in the future.
What you really should have done was petitioned to have the "Star Trek" name removed from everything they have worked on. Call it "Andromeda" or something and it would be better.
Don't all the Firefly fans already have it on DVD?
Heck, they have it on DVD, their friends have it on DVD, they use Firefly discs as place settings at family dinners, they bring copies of it to baby showers, they even reshingle their houses with it.
All those guys in the funny brown jackets are turning Firefly DVDs into the AOL Coaster of this decade.
On the other hand, history has shown that the majority of voters are most happy when handed small bags of (their own) money shortly before election time.
Well, I heard some guy say that you had an unusually small penis. The fact that you continue to blatantly wear pants in public only confirms that my sources are correct.
No, if your users are bitching that the net is too slow then you should schedule a three day long upgrade window during their peak usage times, wander around the site changing all of the patch cables on the access points from blue to yellow, and then turn it back on again five days later without changing anything else.
They'll be raving about the increased speed for at least a week and then forget that anything ever happened.

See if you can spot the minor changes, particularly in how the interactions between the lead characters have been subtly emphasized.

Get re-elected next year or die trying.
These marketing drives are aimed at younger consumers, but (from the article): "About 36% of MySpace users are people [...]"

Gnome vs. KDE?
EMACS, obviously.

The great thing about Heisenberg Compensators is that you always know exactly what they are, but have no idea of what they do.

That's because they're all living in SIN.

I think that would be "link-zotting the zap-ups".
You may have noticed that they are still in business. Somebody has to be buying all that crap.
If he had called his own feces by the code name of "a pretzel" and referred to being whacked on coke as "taking a nap", he could be another famous W.
Still not anyone whose opinions I would trust, though.

That's Naibed Linux/UNG to you.
This could be even better than the Japanese version of Red Dwarf.

He didn't say what kind of quality it was.
