I chose Earth Sciences at Uni even though I love I.T and that kind of thing.
I felt I was going for the safe option but I wasn't listening to my heart. I don't like being stuck in one place and I felt that I.T meant I'd be stuck behind a screen indoors.
Note that this argument only applies well to the not-for-profit aspects of programs like Wine & Winelib.
My reaction to this and other situations is:
We must be able to get around all these problems if we had a system like freenet supporting free speech transparently.
There's the CVS part of i2p (i2p.net). But it's unfortunate that these measures still cripple.
I want to say that there's a way, to perk views up from troll thoughts, that at the very least we can quietly swap books of contraband source code as they did with PGP.
When something is patented it normally stops other companies from making a product. With software patents you're not only stopping software companies but non profit organisations and individuals from making the product themselves ; compiling the sourcecode and simply chatting.
A possible defense can be boiling the code down to the critical banned text. You then have a set of words rather than a product. Then, at the very least it's clear that communications are being banned as well as a product resulting from it.
You can now begin to argue for your right to free speech.
Patents damaging the economy is one problem. Patents being hijacked for censorship is a bigger problem.
Evolution as a definition is generally narrowly confined to biology.
The other silly thing is that we tend to think of evolution as progressive. Actually, the bacteria on this earth are much more APPROPRIATE than ourselves.
But I feel that that definition of evolution is too narrow.
If we include intelligence/psychology, sociology and everything, things pan out a little.
What seporates us from most animals is that we have an altered gene at the price of being more vulernable to disease, so we have to cook food more. The advantage is that this gene allows for the brain to develop beyond previous limits.
Now the evolution is happening in the minds of the individual and the many; socialogy.
We're at the stage where we can alter our own evolution but we have decided as yet to mostly not run with this; Hitler block with the Aryan project and selection of eggs and sperm right now still controversial. So I'd say that that sounds like the start of a potential change.
Then you got all the cyborg stuff but that's a different story. If that takes off I'd just class that as an extention of the mind rather than a full revolution.
Wow, I had an idea for cycling CC numbers and thought it hadn't been done. I was thinking monthly but even one-time numbers are available - exactly what I've been looking for.
Now I just need to find a sterling GBP £ card.
I haven't seen an online banking system I've like yet. Ones I've seen include:
- one using java; not really needed - a slick one from the Coop; light, fast and nice looking but nothing to stop keyloggers - a secure one from LloydsTSB that stops keyloggers by mouse selection of an additional password, but slows down login to about 30 secs
Only a few safety related aspects of onboard automotive computers were standardised into law (iso safety standards possibly).
Unfortunately not much is covered by the law, so when your Beemer goes wrong the mechanic can rarely fix it by the side of the road. You then have to have it to a BMW dealer who then can charge a premium. Anti-competitive and dangerous, exactly the sort if thing that affects my voting pen.
Morse is great and it gets a revival because it can be used in situations where other forms of communication can't; like banging on radiators, space or underwater.
It could and probably should be revised for the digital age? I say revised because the advantage is that it's not too technical and doesn't involve a computer!
The other thing with morse is that although it's very impressive watching my grandad tap at unbeliveable speeds, you need the person recieving to understand what it means as well and there's little motivation for this now.
Note that pilots still use Morse to identify NDB navigational aids, so you can be sure that most pilots will understand you.
and also http://www.cryptophone.de/ GSM can now be decrypted in almost realtime, and the recieving hardware is only a few thousand dollars. Though personally I'd prefer a freeware OSS push to talk GPRS program because not many can make data calls

Nature contains not just birth but death as well.
We need more death for progress.

There's no shame in using sub writers
If they can't disable the lost key then I understand. If they can because it's an online service then I feel a replacement shuold be made.
I'm sorry, could you say that again?
I have rose tinted sunglasses on and I believe it has effected my perception of your sentence.
2 related projects, but they're also very different to freenet.
Tor is simply an anonymous p2p proxy:
http://tor.eff.org/
i2p is a fork from freenet. Similar to Tor but you can host your own site off it.
Both are not nearly as freenet. I'm loving i2p though because it's much more practical.
For a lowdown from the i2p people on these and more similar technologies see here:

I'd like to see some video of flying fish but it seems there's little out there

not a lot ;)

I wish they could take a load of us on so we could prove ourselves.
How much does it cost to dispose of?
Is it easier than getting rid of a broken CRT I wonder...
I couldn't get knoppix or knoppix STD to mount NTFS r/w.
/dev/partition /mnt` but it said that captive wasn't included in both versions.
I tried `mount -t captive-ntfs
I don't fancy having to roll my own.

- unpack leaking Windows Source,
1) emerge -f world or apt-get the source
2) unpack
3) run against IP Amplifier
4) reply to slashdot before the story becomes uncommentable!
Drinking is endemic to our social lives. It's hard for me to go out now I can't drink.
At least give those who can't drink alcohol a chance.

Sadly no, that wouldn't be as interesting. But still a race between 2 other peoples spermatozoa would be sweet.
This is getting scary
