Plain and simple. Regarding her due diligence in protecting her personal information, no action can be taken in regard to disemination of the informatin on the page she 'carelessly' threw in the trash. At least that's what my legal sense tells me (IANAL)
But the submittal of the form for a credit-card is another matter. It indicates someone forged her signature (even if the signature doesn't look anything like your wife's sig) and submitted the form, or someone accepted the form without a signature. Both could lead people in serious trouble with the law.
Tinkering like this will advance science at some point. Most good inventions had an air of mishap about them, something besides what was being researched was the important discovery.
It was extremely cool to go to the moon, a great feat of heroism and dedication. The most important technological advance made (for society) wasn't rocketry but probably how to aggregate large quantities of data.
There are probably lot better examples of what i'm talking about. Got any? Use the reply link;)
There are just too many valid defenses for them to settle. This would be an opportunity for the Libre Crowd to deal the RIAA a bloody nose. Somebody step up to the plate and get a defense fund going. I'm dirt poor (university student) AND a non-US citizen, but I would part with 10$ to see this girl DEFENDED.
require a specific OS so as not to have a support nightmare on their hands. A friend of mine is in an undergraduate Business Admin campus, no CS. They only allow Win2K, XP home/pro. Now he's an OsX nut and loves Apple more than life itself but hunkered down and wept while paying for a PC laptop. While I understand the reasoning behind the policy (These are after all, pointy-haired-bosses in training) one would think that anyone savvy enough to WANT a non-M$ box in that crowd is more likely to GIVE tech-support than NEED it;)
If ESA intends to get cheap access to space they should be looking at cheaper alternatives than a reusable space-shuttle. Even if the NASA model is made more economical, it's only going to be a fraction of the savings compared to looking at other alternatives
I think you should read that in the nature of the entire message. I mean he did paint SCO up to be the Evil Tower of Doom in the desert with Darl as Dr. Evil (snicker).
And please tell me: If he WAS referring to you, do you not belong to the group he refers to?
Oh sure, fix the problem by implementing something to allow remote code execution without alerting the user. Anyone want to bet how long before someone finds an exploit?
"We have rocket scientists who have applied their spectral recognition and pattern analysis to software, which has yielded amazing results. We have found needles in the Mount Everest-sized haystack," Sontag said.
It's good to see how they see it as very few lines amongst a great heap many that infringe;)
Mabey this will give NASA som clout to go to Congress with an aggressive plan to conquer the Red Planet before the 2nd tier space nations go where USA has gone before.
This will also be interresting in terms of the tech spinoffs. Remember, the tech had to be INVENTED for the 1969 moon flight. What is possible with todays tech and how will this expand our understanding of the application of todays 'best tech'?
another vulnerability in the system, this one installing patches automatically. Anyone want to bet how long before someone finds a vulnerability in the auto-patch code and steal the machine?
I think your fallacy is that you actually cannot be INSIDE the singularity when the event horizon forms. The explotion caused by the last energy/matter particle/wave that pushes the object past the threshold would likely expand from the 'center'.
Or am I taking a too classical view of the whole shebang?

Nobody is talking about hooking this thing up to the Internet directly. It's just a classic case of new tech replacing old.
Well, the underlying topic at least.

Any spam measure taken at a server level could induce false positives.
I manage paid-for e-mail e-zines which I mail using PHP and sendmail (read:forged headers until I'm big enough to run my own server).
Wouldn't most server-layer anti-spam measures catch my very suspicious HTML e-zines, even if paid for?
Lego ought to hire this guy on the SPOT, these are STUNNINGLY good, beautiful designs.
But wait, you are requesting the source of the video implementation and such right?
They have no requirement to release any software running on the GPL PLATFORM as GPL.
You can have proprietary code running on Linux.

Man does Spielberg SUCK as a script writer.
What's next? Han Solo digital actor?
Finally one can go to the page without feeling like having had extensive eye surgery.

should be our next step into space. Reducing the payload price from 10,000 USD to 100 USD per kilogram should perk some ears.
What is your opinion on http://www.highliftsystems.com/ ?
It seems to be the way to go.
Any language that allows:
