Funny thing is that this is a somewhat recent change. My old hp c400 inkjet (really slow and ugly) had print cartridges with refill holes built into them.
I think that firebird's tabbed browser extentions has that ability. Instead of opening your homepage, it can open the tabs that were opened when you closed the browser. I'm not sure if it works after a crash though.
Alternately, once he discovers that his scam is about to be busted, he raids his own compound and cries that he couldn't finish his research because it's all been stolen. He then promply moves to the bahamas.
Yeah! We could attach a flat panel screen to them, perhaps in a folding or clamshell style. And maybe stick a keyboard to it so you don't lose it on the way home. And then, since we don't want to lose the mouse, we could add a touchpad or a trackpoint. And suddely, we have something amazing, which the world has never seen!!
Oh.......wait.......
They do. They imbed url's in the images so once you find something you like, you're enticed to check it out for more of the same. It's free advertising.
I disagree. It's not just for smartphones, but a way for you dvd player to talk to you pc, which, currently, it can't.
Granted, it's more than likely that whatever scheme they come up with will have DRM (sony is an riaa member after all), but I don't necessarily think that the driving point is to add drm to already existing standards.
That's fine. The idea is that by the time the hour has elapsed, vipul's razor or some other such method will have been updated to catch the spam. The author states several times that this won't really work that well on its own.
I really don't think that MS put the original clause in the EULA so that they could spy on your computer or download evil top secret DRM goblins into your computer while you sleep. I think that it referred to exactly what it did: downloading updates from winupdate in the background, and was just worded poorly. Since some (a few slashdotters) complained, they changed it to terms that, for their purposes, mean the exact same thing, but don't piss off all 50 slashdotters who actually paid for their copy of windows.
I would assume they have multiple roots. They have to seed google with some list of sites. In fact, I would guess that every site google sees gets added as a root, as well as any site added by google employees.
On the AP tests that require lots of writing (most of them do, including the APCS) you have to fill out a statement, several lines long, to the effect of I actually took this test, and I didn't cheat etc etc.
On my first test, I tried to write it in cursive, since it said to not print. It took forever and wasn't legible at all, since I hadn't written in cursive since 4th grade. On the next one, I just decided to print it. If printing is my handwriting, as the above post regarding signatures mentioned, then I should be able to print things like that.
Actually, WASTE wasn't really about file sharing at all. Sure, it could share files, but it was really about creating a small community within which everything, chat, filesharing, anything you needed to do with them, was encrypted. It didn't scale beyone 50 users, making it pretty useless for Kazaa/Gnutella style file sharing. But perfect for groups of friends or groups at a company who needed to be in constant communication and didn't want to be spyed on.
On the other hand, this is simple encryped IM over aol's servers. WASTE had no servers and was completely decentralized. This IS interesting, but I doubt AOL will make it easy to use. As it is in this beta, the options are buried in the already obscure preferences panel, and I still have absolutely no idea how to go about getting a certificate. It just tells me that I'm not "subscribed..."
Well damn. I spoke too soon. While all of you are deriding this product as stupid, a little announcement sneaks out that apple may be making the exact same thing.

I know, I know, it's the reg, but they're right some times.
The article is also rather uninformed. The author complains about the need for windows pro xp, without realizing that the technology the smart displays use does not exist in any other windows os, besides nt terminal server edition and windows 2000 advanced server.
Also, he complains about the single user problem, and while that is an ms-introduced limitation, it's been present in xp pro since day 1.
Finally, in his conclusion, he complains about this being a rehashing of old technology. Perhaps it's slightly old technology (rdp has been around for a few years, as has 8.02.11b, as has an rdp client for wince) but no one has ever put them together. I saw a rumor for this sort of product about a year ago, but with an apple logo on it. Microsoft has already released it. It is new, it is a novel idea, and coupled with lower prices and a more media-centric connected pc, this could be a huge boon to home users.
Off topic, but imagine instead of a small remote to control your media pc, a 12 or 10 inch lcd panel with a stylus that could even display everything on your tv. Guide in your hand with a live-video preview of the channel you're thinking of switching to, while the tv still shows the last channel. Modify your party's playlist while the tv still shows a visualization, all without leaving the couch. It's not quite there, but the idea is amazing.
I wish it was so for my nokia 3360. it was in my pocket when my friends decided i should go swimming. A few seconds after falling into the pool, I remembered it was in my pocket and pulled it out and threw it onto the side of the pool, where the batter popped out.
After some intense drying with a blowdryer, i turned it on. screen and such worked, it rang when you called it, but all the buttons just stopped working completely.
But the support was great. I took it back to the att store, where, after informing me that any water damage wasn't covered and I'd have to pay for a new phone if they found any (I assured them there wasn't any), they mailed me a new phone, free of charge. And I've kept this one dry.
And actually, while very few teens use AOL (at least the ones I know), almost all of them use AIM (teh standalone im client). No one user MSN messenger or yahoo. All teens use AIM since all their friends use AIM. It will take some killer app (like this) to get them to move.
Of course, this will get them to use MSN messenger with these 10 friends, and AIM with all the others, but once everyone has both, maybe MS can convince them to just use MSN Messenger...
Which is exactly why you shouldn't use single user windows systems. MIT has athena, a huge unix-based system. There's no way (barring finding the root password) for me to do this to any user other than myself.
About the GPS missiles, I recently took a tour of the Trident Missile facility in California (Moffet Field) with my school. The trident missiles, which are basically our doomsday machine, not only don't rely on GPS, but don't even really have any electronics. The gov is so worried about radiation and interference and such, that they use pressurized tubes to send signals, and orient themselves by actually looking for certain stars through a little hole in the side. Of course, they refused to explain how the "magic inertia" device worked.

Yeah, but don't forget about the guy who had to go to the hospital after his dell laptop burned his crotch.

You don't. Just add him to your whitelist (supported as well) before he sends it. Or, better yet, add his whole domain/company.
Exactly. The one hour delay only applies to the first time someone sends you an email. The next time, it's automatically white-listed.

That's why the US does tons of torture tests. Someone above mentioned them, so I won't retread here.
I believe that's true. I think that the regular theatre already shows each frame twice before moving to the next one. Why? I'm not quite sure.

So you mean to say that Amazon beat Bush to taking down iraq?

my school has a dorm called "new house." The next dorm they build was called "next house."

That could be true, but this article is talking about dynamic database based pages. There's a huge difference.
