does this mean the end of hospitals/morgues/doctors? Cancer of the liver? Just cut it out, and grow a new one.
If it means the end of doctors, who will put the new liver in you? Besides, there are many ways to die other than organ failure. You can grow all the brains you want, but that's not going to help the person who had a bullet tunnel through theirs.
Possibly because they believe that those credit cards are fraudulently being used not from being stolen from their site but from just ordinary everyday credit card fraud.
Plus, not all of the cards are being used fraudulently. 7500 cards show possible fraudulent activity. I've been contacted by my credit card company when they thought my card was being used fraudulently when it wasn't, a few years ago my mother was detained at a store because the credit card company wouldn't put the charge through due to possible fraud.

To make any inroads they are going to have to have backwards compatibility with X
Berlin itself doesn't need backwards compatibility with X, it just needs someone to write an X server for Berlin. I display X applications on my MS Windows machines because I have an X server for Windows, this doesn't mean Windows has any kind of "backwards compatibility" with X. Windows has no knowledge of X. Berlin doesn't need any knowledge of X, just an X server that does.
Advertisers brought us magazines, daily newspapers, radio theater
That's because they were paid by advertisers. With spam, nobody is paid to carry the ad, thus nothing is funded by the advertiser. Magazine advertisers pay magazine publishers who give us magazines, television advertisers pay television companies who give us television, spammers pay nobody so we get nothing. Spam isn't going to bring us anything, because spammers don't pay anyone.
The problem with this lawsuit is that it states that microsoft as a _company_ has a corporate policy of discrimination against blacks. This lawsuit isn't saying "there are some bad apples at MS" or "all the people we had to deal with were racist" - it says that "microsoft as a company is run by a secret good old boy network of black-hating people that turn otherwise unbiased managers into agents of the white devil".
I don't think the lawsuit says that. If there are some bad apples at Microsoft, Microsoft is responsible for it. If a rogue Microsoft employee put some code into the next version of Word which would at random times replace every other word in all your documents with the word "nigger", Microsoft would be responsible for this and would have to pay out on all the lawsuits brought against it even though it was a single person who did this and not a company policy.
I guess the next step will then be the software to prevent you from changing channels when commercials come on
That's absurd, the next logical step is to make a television which sneaks into your room at night, takes some money from your wallet, and mails it to Hollywood.
I wonder what Microsoft would think about when someone else patents what boilds down to a simple set of calls to their OS?
If I were to make a time machine and used a Black & Decker toaster oven at the core of it, I should be able to patent this time machine even though only some or possibly none of the raw materials were actually manufactured by me, Black & Decker should have no control over my time machine (in the same way that the company that supplies steel to Black & Decker should have no control over the items that their steel is used to make). Similarly, if I use calls to Microsoft's OS in a new and innovative way, Microsoft was just the supplier of the raw materials (figuratively speaking, of course) for my software and shouldn't have any special rights over it.
What about all the other pop up ads that you see all over the place? I don't understand how NetZero can even patent that concept since they didn't even come up with it.
According to the article, they patented the technology for an ISP to display a popup ad, the popups you see all over the place are from websites and (i hope) not from your ISP.
You don't need to find a judge fluent in assembly, you need to find an expert willing to testify that it is likely that the source code was stolen. The judge can rule that source code from both parties be turned over to the court and the court can then make an informed decision about whether source code was stolen or not.
Are you saying that when the U.S. government made slavery illegal, that the former slaves were not actually free because they were "freed" by force? The former slave owners certainly lost some freedom, the freedom to own slaves, but when you give people absolute freedom they tend to take the freedom away from as many others as possible.
Yes, for if we find such a place, with water, air, light, and plants... but, with major earthquakes... we'll never find life there. Except for the plants... or did you mean silk plants?
He obviously meant power plants, who in their right mind would live in some place without electricity?
very muscular, with all that gravity. Wouldnt that be great, a race of super strong aliens, lets not piss them off
Piss them off all you want, if they ever came to earth they'd be very uncoordinated in a low gravity environment. They might be super strong, but they'd be way too awkward in our gravity to put up a good fight.

Indeed, it is better to be rich than poor. If you are going to fine the rich more than the poor, shouldn't you also base jail sentences on life expectancy and give smokers and others with poor health a lower jail sentence?
what's the point of setting the initial price to $500 if the reserve is >$17K
In a scam auction, the goal is to set the reserve higher than anyone will bid. When someone wins the auction, the seller can tell the high bidder that they will sell it to them for the high bid even though the reserve price wasn't met. Because the high bidder did not meet the reserve price, eBay will do nothing to help them when they get scammed since they did not win the auction.
Gandi and most of the Core registrars will register a domain with fuck in it. Gandi is in Europe so they'll charge you with those silly Euros, but assuming you don't have some real shitty credit card that shouldn't be a problem if you're outside Europe, you should be able to find a Core registrar from your country of origin if that's the kind of thing you're into.

What are the domain names, subhosts, etc for doubleclick?
$ nslookup doubleclick.net
Server: tenerus.speakeasy.org
Address: 216.231.41.2
Name: doubleclick.net
Address: 199.95.206.201
$ whois 199.95.206.201
[whois.arin.net]
(lameness filter violating stuff was here)
199.92.0.0 - 199.95.255.255
Double Click, Inc. (more lameness filter stuff here)
199.95.206.0 - 199.95.209.255
Looks like doubleclick has 199.95.206.0 - 199.95.209.255.
You may need to add a -h whois.arin.net or @whois.arin.net to your whois commandline.
Has anyone besides me ever noticed that O'Rielly books have the paper with the best smell and texture.
They have a nice texture, I've never noticed the smell though.
There's nothing like coming home from a nice workout all sweaty and settling down for a nice night of paging through O'Rielly techincal manuals
If you're all sweaty, you've probably gotten sweat all over the pages which is what is giving them that smell you like.
Surely, they've honored the GPL and made their source modifications public.
Have they given you a modified (or unmodified for that matter) slashcode binary but refuse to give you the source?

Are TV execs really that worried about bootleg copies of Will and Grace running amok on the 'net?
I think they're more worried about people copying pay-per-view movies.

flock(2) is a BSD system call, perhaps the babes aren't BSD derived. If the babes are portable, they'll use fcntl(2).
