Absolutely NO amount of radiation is completely safe. I'm wondering if this will be a new disaster like the use of radioactive munitions by NATO in former Yugoslavia... You mean like the Depleted Uranium amo the US is using now in the middle east?

The sad thing is that "professional rioters" will learn quickly how to protect themselves. The only unprotected people - as usually - will be those innocent people that didn't foreseen or didn't wont any fight...
Should print a t-shirt with the label "Raw meat is going after you!" on the front side and "Ding! Bloody steak running away!" on the back side?
That makes it rather easy doesnt it? Once all the suvilians run away, waste anything still alive and standing.

Yeah, youre right, and I can take the FF source and recode it to delete 30 meg of files from you disk for every page you pull up. And still use the logos! Oh wait no, I cant that would give FF a bad name and they are trying to protect their name. I guess since Debian is so much more 'free' I will just make my own distro that deletes itself and they wont care to protect their reputation.
Thats fine, if they want to play games like this then get out your RFC template and write a new standard they cant block easily or legally.
Just a wild @$$ idea, bitp2p. The new spec outlines a new DNS tag, say BD. Much like MX records this can point to multiple servers weighted. Each server supplies the information to connect to a p2p network running its own DNS and encrypted data transfer. Since the users on this p2p network would be connected to various ISP's each will have its own advantages and disadvantages. The client software would send a page request over this p2p network and the clients will begin feeding based on whomever answers first but will stripe the data much like a bittorent tranfer. So 30 clients could each provide you with 2k of the transfer in encrypted form (which its a DMCA violation to decrypt) since the data is coming in encrypted and from many differnet locations the ISP's cant legally decrypt it nor would decrypting it do them much good unless they decrypted everything to your IP.
Now lets see Google and MS begin working on this together in an effort to show the Telcos that nomatter how many politicians they purchase, we will not be stifled!
Ivan, your argument misses one fact. In BS territory the majority of connectivity is provided by BS. If BS wants to they can force this upon their resellers as well. So earthlink may take on a whole different flavor down here in the south.
Yes bellsouth wants to charge you for both ends of that phone call. What else they want to do is force companies like VOIP providers to pay higher rates than say Google or Itunes and the VOIP provider has to pass that cost on to you. How much would bellsouth charge for such a thing, well probably something in EXCESS of what they charge the average schmuck for long distance service. Effectively making someone like Vonage charge their users more than BS has to charge its customers for the services.
So they completely plan on screwing the end user. But hey as long as they are loyal to their shareholders who gives a flip about you lousy customers, you cost too much using all of that bandwidth we are selling to you! This doesnt remind me anything of monopolistic business practices.
Diebold has fought kicking and screamin any examination of the code or internals of their systems. If its so damn good they should be more than happy to provide this information. Instead they have filed lawsuits, used the DMCA IIRC and strongarm tactics that would make Bill G blush.
Let em pull out, someone is obviously getting screwed. Keep in mind tho that pulling out aint good birth control.
Did it ever occur to you that feeds themselves are scripted automatic downloads?
Allow me to expand. The feeds are tiny in comparison to the average podcast or video stream. A RSS feed is chosen by a conscious decision to download a little bit of data at a regular interval. Joe Schmo sets something like this up and we could have 1000's of people downloading gay p0rn when a web site gets hacked, etc..
Much like breathing outside, having scripted automatic downloads of 'anything' in a feed isnt a great idea IMNSHO. Sounds like walking out the front door and having the exhaust from a diesel blown in my fact just because I said I liked trucks.....
enameco.com works for my domains. Last year I let one slip past the date, they put a LOCK on the domain for 30 days and allowed me to renew it late and keep it. Cant argue with that kind of service in my book.
Why? Radio is dead or dying for most younger people. All my employees under 21 podcast or listen to playlists. The RIAA doesn't really have any idea what they're chasing. Putting a Band-Aid on a corpse is useless.
Not Quite. The death of radio is much like the death of newspapers, printed books, and the movie theater. Granted each meadium has suffered from shrinkage, but none has completely disappeared. Even libraries are still widely used despite being able to research nearly anything at the Speed of Google!
Radio will suffer, but even now podcasts are gaining steam and picking up advertisers. It will be a slow transition but one that is inevitable. In the end the consumers will be satiated because they will get what they want, flexibility and choice.
Of course if the person pushing the cart had an RFID enabled ID card this wouldnt be needed. Of course this is slashdot and we are humbled by the concept that an RFID reader may tie our identity to our preperation H package.
What we need is cheap reliable SOHO AoE hardware. The average home users isnt going to buy a 3 U box with 12 drives. However a small 2 drive box with 1G/100Mb/10Mb capability for say $50-60 would be most welcome...
I still don't get why would I want one of these. I already have a PC with i/o devices, display and power. This portable thing doesn't work on its own. If it's about synchronizing files - I can carry a USB memory stick with me and keep my $HOME there.
Hence the reason for the contest they are running for people to come up with the killer app for the hardware. One would think before going to the R&D cost of building such a device they would already have the 'killer app'.
That said with its biometric device it could be the worlds largest high security key for your desktop. Or possibly a great transport for injecting that worm into any pc you run accross.....
Slashdot Mirror
Are they within the top 1/64th of an inch of skin? Then STFU AND RTFA

I'll take 2 shirts please!
our forefathers gave us the right to bear arms. To protect ourselves if needed against things like this. They will not take freedom of speech.

Are you sure you have a static or is it a rule based DHCP pseudo-static IP like most phone companies use now? If its not truly static.....
Hence the nightly tester tools extension that lets you get past the version # game with extensions and themes.
are belong to us!

Awesome. One of FF best features is its extensions, its worst is they break with every update until the authors fix them.

I wonder how much money they estimate is lost due to radio recordings.
Probably far less per hour globally than one RIAA attourney makes locally. But hey, what do I know!

There is no such thing as bad publicity. Geico just got their advertising courtesy of Google and didn't even have to pay Google for it. Slick move.
