This is just another example of how Michael Bay's Transformers movie is completely ridiculous. Megatron wouldn't have had to send his Decepticons to break into the government's computers to steal the location of the all-spark.
As we can see, the DOD would likely just left that information open, available over the web.
If the average rural worker in china is making $300 per year (read my other post), then earning 30 cents per hour ($600 per year) is double what they'd make farming, say, rice, or goats, or chickens. outside. in the sun and the dirt. Seems like a good tradeoff to me.
The average yearly income of a resident living in rural China is about $315 per year. (2004 numbers). Urban residents like those in Beijing make about 5 to 10 times that amount. Which, compared to America, is still not a lot.
When The Consumerist published 22 tips for getting the best deal from Dell Computers, according to a self-described former Dell sales manager, Dell fired back with a take-down notice.
When are these companies going to learn that trying to suppress information on the internet just makes it multiply?
What I don't get is, why do creationists have such an obvious hatred for science, and yet they have a compulsion to explain their own beliefs using scientific-sounding words and scientific-looking venues?
That's what's so absurd about this whole thing. Nearly everything in that museum is owed to real science. From the depictions of ancient creatures and people, to the actual robotics and materials used in their construction.
You can't pick and choose which parts of science you like, and which parts of science you don't like. Talk about the ultimate hypocrisy.
Palm already has at least one device with Windows Mobile (the 700w) and soon will make a big push to Linux devices, maybe by the end of the year. But the Palm OS, which was top dog for a while back in the 1990s, and is still used by many people who own Palm Pilots or Treos, is going to quickly fade, it seems.
Ok, but what will the interface for those Linux devices look like?
Northwestern University researchers have found a genetic marker associated with aggressive forms of prostate cancer. Previously characterized mutations in markers at 8q24 are associated with a broader population than previously reported and with much more aggressive tumors.
You see, that's interesting, because I had always assumed it had some relation to markers at g04t53.
Vice Adm. Robert Murrett, director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, says that the increasing availability of commercial satellite photos may require the government to restrict distribution.
Reminds me of the old saying, "Beware of he who would restrict you from information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master."

Scientists Find Water on Extra-solar Planet
The only extra solar planet I know of is Pluto, and we've already had that discussion.

And a fun tidbit -- He mentions his 1989 memo to his boss at CERN that described his vision for the Web.
That vision is nonsense. I don't see any Web 2.0 buzzwords on that paper anywhere.
Researchers Prove Existence Of New Type Of Electron Wave
A ha... so that's how they accomplished that perpetual energy machine.
That AT&T, through the depths of its incompetence, could derail the iPhone.
It's not that they're incompetent. It's just that they don't care. They don't have to. They're the phone company.
if someone had told you even ten years ago that people would be taking out second mortgages to buy flat screen TVs, would you have believed it?
That sounds like a really bad deal (for the closing costs alone). Why wouldn't you just take out a personal line of credit from the bank?
(Obviously, the best solution is: don't buy it if you can't pay for it that month, but we're talking about the lesser of evils)
The four groups will be known as EA Games, EA Sports, EA Casual Entertainment, and a label simply called 'The Sims'.
That's odd. I would have expected the fourth one to be "Madden"

An anonymous reader clues us that the wildly litigious Canadian Wayne Crookes, who has been suing the Internet for defamation
Yeah, well, things have really gone down the tubes lately, if you know what I mean.
They don't, unless you assume that evolution is scientific fact. Evolution is a _theory_
I do not think that word means what you think it means.
Heliocentrism is also a theory. Are you next going to argue against the idea that the earth revolves around the sun?

which now join other items on the banned list such as tobacco, drugs, weapons, and prostitution.
Essay writing is just a simpler form of prostitution. You know the old saying "Prose before Hos".

The project, called Project Hydra, will aim to establish 'Secure Super Grids' that can withstand extreme weather and terrorist attacks.
But will it survive human error and project mismanagement? I think not.
Let me give you an example. If you are No. 1 or No. 2 in your industry, you hate open source.
What if your industry is open-source software?

That depends. Does the universe kill all the lawyer processes when it runs out of memory?
No, the lawyer processes just terminate automatically when the universe runs out of money.
The list is intended asan aid for both web application developers and professional security auditors.
Ok, so that covers China and Japan, but what about Europe and the U.S.?
...what kind of gun would he have been shot with had today's technology been around?
and don't forget, they didn't even have the catcher in the rye back then.
what do you say in interviews after getting fired as a fall guy at your last job?
I dunno, writing a book seems to have worked out for George Tenet.
'still no [1-Click] prior art has surfaced.'
How can something surface when you're actively trying to drown it?

Do you go around posting "You're using an argument from 1791?" when people defend First Amendment rights?
Cute. Do first Amendment rights have any impact on the basic technological feasability of shared spectrum use?
If your answer is no, then "no".
You can go put your strawman back where you found it.
