Totally incorrect on your part. SPF won't work much at all until every ISP on the planet implements it. Without that, the spammers can simply choose a sending domain that hasn't yet deployed SPF, or chose an ISP with a wide open SPF record. Either way, SPF will have little benefit while handing over an enomous amount of control to the ISP.
Disagree. It hurts nothing for the receiver to implement SPF, assuming that no SPF record => wildcard, and if a domain doesn't want the bounces, they just add the record. This has the nice feature of being compatible and allowing gradual migration.
and that same 1mm in an engine's main bearings would cause the engine to hammer itself to bits in minutes.
Closer to home, the engine in my car (1ZZ-FE) has had problems with the cylinder bore being off by about that much (maybe a bit less). You find out if it happened with your car when you use lots of oil, which clogs the pre-cats, which collapse, which eats your engine. The fun part is when the replace the engine without touching the headers and it eats another one.
And memory latency and bandwidth aren't a huge problem, because the P4 has one of the fastest single-processor memory busses you can find. 6.4GB/sec is nothing to sneeze at!
Unless you buy into the theory that EVERY OTHER MEDIA OUTLET is controlled by The Man, could it be that, oh, the public just doesn't give a shit?
Well, that's only about 5 companies, so it's entirely possible that 5 large, conservative corps would like to avoid angering the party that currently controls all 3 branches of government. Go figure.
It helped with my last job. The job was great. My boss was great. But then we hired a new VP of IT and he started adding his own people from the last company he was at.
Hey, that sounds like my last place - we got a bean-counter VP, my boss fell out of favor, and I failed to kiss the right ass.
just force it to go full speed when it hits the end of the line
I'm pretty sure you can force a train to brake from the outside if it's going too fast (there may be systems like this already in place). The difference between trains and planes is that trains can stop in the middle.
if NASA have as much trouble with their mainstream programs for space missions how the heck can someone expect them to reliably mine data for terrorists
I don't know, how about the fact that they're going to Space? Ever been to Mars? Didn't think so. Ever seen a terrorist? Sure, they're all over the damn TV. We have some idea what a terrorist wants and how they operate. Compared to thaat, we know fuck-all about operating in space.
if you make ANYTHING that was once illegal, legal it will cut down on crime.
Okay, how's this: legalize pot and most other drugs, decriminalize the rest. The soft stuff is available at the drug store, same as tobacco, and the hard stuff is available at a drug clinic, where you use it in a controlled environment. This cuts down on crimes such as posession of marijuana (of course), but also frees space in prisons for violent offenders, and cuts down on the crime rate by eliminating the reason Heroin and cocaine cost up to $500/day. The $1.8B that the DEA uses (cite) can be cut substantially, as all we need to di is extend the FDa to regulate pot, cocaine and other drugs, local cops spend less money on the property crimes that funded peoples' drug habits.
As a nice side effect, watch the murder rate drop, as drug dealers no longer have as much to fight over. Sure, some people never change, but we can probably retrain some of the dealers to work at the DMV or something.
This really throws into question what a "disease" is. If 20% of the population suffers from it, can it really be considered a disease?
Damn Skippy! One quarter of the people in sub saharan africa have sickle cell anemia and die young. Another Quarter get Malaria and die young. Most of the remainder are carriers for sickle cell anemia.
This colloquy reminds me of the Clinton impeachment scandal:
Well, that's the thing: the part used has a significant bearing on which laptop people choose. It's like when Bush lied about the WMDs to justify the war in Iraq.
It's the same thing the Saturn car company did, by removing the option of 'bargaining', they make the customer feel like they're getting a better deal, while in actuality leaving them in a position to charge whatever they want.
I haven't bought a Saturn, but I have bought from carmax, and the fact is that I'd pay an extra $500 for the experience. Of course, I do get a better deal there, so I guess your point escapes me.
Uhh... In reality there's almost no difference between AGP 4x and 8x with current hardware. It's kinda like how SATA is faster than ATA133; it's capable of higher speeds but under current conditions you'll never see the difference.
Which is exactly why these free trade agreements are so desired by the corporations who run the country. These agreements tie the hands of the US citizens and their potential representatives in congress from drafting laws that require such logical conditions for trade.
I don't see why. Bush had no problem at all backing out of all sorts of intetnational treaties - why should a free trade agreement be any different.

Are they still limited to 3 decodes/clock?

ubec hydro makes a lot of money and every watt they save to export to the US is another dollar.
Wow, and I thought my electric costs were high!
So, in theory, if you rub it against paper, it should leave a mark.
No, graphite is a fairly weak structure compared to diamond, so you'd have to rub that diamond really hard

Nice simplifiction, valid only for cubical drones who communicate to hundreds of thousands daily.
Sorry, we only have the spherical kind over here.
If telecommuting isn't an issue why not be up front about it on air?
Who cares? When I go to Outback, I don't ask where the steak is from, why do I care if some guy is in Florida 2 weeks at a time in the winter?

Only one problem with this scenario: I'm not buying, and neither will a lot of other gamers.
Yeah, if I'm going to put money into something every month, I'll just start modifying my car.
Actually I think you'll find that the University owns the copyright if the essay was written as fufilment a requirement of your course.
Not anywhere I've been. I own my papers, and the prof owns his lecture notes. Perhaps you're thinking about research?
It is the right to be free of the shared costs of potheads ruining their bodies and asking for my insurance fees to subsidize liver transplants.
Liver transplants? Are you sure you aren't thinking about alcohol?

many true cases of ADD/ADHD can be effectively treated through limiting of sugar and caffeine
Didn't work for me - caffeine/sugar have little effect on me.
When your sending like a billions emails a day even a 1% increase is significant.
No it isn't. You're already sending multiple emails to everybody with an address, so who cares if there's a few more dupes?
Hey RatBastard, What's up? I still have some of those stickers you were handing out.
Japan has around half the population of the US, and if you buy a car with a stereo system in Japan, you'll get CD, DVD and MD support
And how many people in Japan buy cars? They're more expensive, and public transportation is a lot better.
And top it off, hes not an American, so he has no free speech rights.
He's in the US, so he's protected by the Constitution. I'm not sure how you missed that.

Then we not only loose the jobs, but the tax revenue as well.
What revenue? Did you think companies like GE and Microsoft paid income tax?
