My big idea is that I do not even have to RTFA to know that this is one of those pieces which is all about the world going to hell in a handbasket, no, this time for real. We are always less smart/less moral/less disciplined/less tough than our imaginary forefathers and apparently always will be.
"More work is needed to identify what the eggs are and what caused them to show up."
SOP for identification:
1. Purchase jar of Paul Newman pasta sauce.
2. Eat pasta sauce on pasta of choice.
3. Wash out jar.
4. Go down to beach and put some eggs and seawater into jar.
5. Take jar back to the lab and keep it aerated and at sea temperature until eggs hatch.
6. GIS whatever the hell swims out.
What Apply fanbois tend to forget is that you shouldn't have to jail break your devices in order to install what you want. Unfortunately the consequence of that is that you have to be mindful of what you install.
And what Android/HP/etc fanbois tend to forget is that the vast majority of tablet customers don't even know what jailbreak means, let alone want to do it.
There would be no point in banning links to a site that is blocked at the ISP level. And it's a stretch to say that google is "linking to it", you search for newzbin and they tell you where newzbin is. You search for "harry potter torrent" and it shows you pages that contain that phrase, including this Slashdot discussion soon. What it does not show you are a checked and rated list of links to harry potter torrents. It could be a news site about harry potter torrents being shut down.
Block that news site. It is telling people that torrents are available.
Holy fuck. I'm not voting for anybody of my federal representatives that are currently in office in the next election. Fuck'em all. Only a select few in congress have earned my trust. The rest need to go.
You only get to vote for a maximum of two congresspeople at any one election. It doesn't matter if Representatives or Senators from other voting areas have earned your trust or not. You don't get to vote for them.
Besides, remember the old truism: My guy's okay, but the rest of those pols are crooks.
On the morning of February 24, Rohrer took a break from coding and pedaled to the local Best Buy. He paid $19.99 for a 4-gigabyte USB memory stick sheathed in black plastic.
Any investment of money in a big endeavor which has to push the tech envelope will generate payoffs as we are discussing. Spinoff tech and inventions came from military spending as well.
No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's inspection Laws: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Controul of the Congress.
Bob the Angry Constitutional Scholar sez:
"The Constitution was written in 1787 in the manner of the day — in other words, it was written by hand. According to the National Archives, the version we are most familiar with today was penned by Jacob Shallus, a clerk for the Pennsylvania State Assembly. In the document itself are several words which are misspelled. Far from the days of spell checkers and easy edits, these misspellings survive in the document today....
Another mistake, though less obvious, is a common one even today: the word "it's" is used in Article 1, Section 10, but the word "its" should have been used."

There is, but its agent has demanded that said scripts can only be credited to Alan Smithee.

You missed the ending, where the cake explodes, destroying the igloo and penguin.
I have discovered a truly marvelous proof of this, which this napkin is too folded and greasy to contain.

He overpaid.
But he got a good deal on the extended warranty.

Why do we need two engines on all air planes? Running two is just a waste of money if one can keep the plane in the sky.
There was a time when the transAtlantic routes were only run by four-engine planes.
