Let the parent be heard. Carrying around 3 days of CDs is *very* necessary. After all, during those 3 days you'll never be able to go back to your house or even car to exchange what you have on you with what is stashed.
Read the bill, not the news article. I would put any money on is having the phrase "without authorization from the copyright holder" or its equivalent in there somewhere...
So what are you going to argue? That the bits on your hard drive spontaneously arranged themselves in a manner such that you got the prerelease movie? Don't think so. In order for you to *have* it, you have to *get* it. Even if having it isn't illegal, getting it is.
Vary the keys. Give each camera a serial number when it is manufactured and after each processing, store the private key in a massive database (storage isn't that expensive, and I doubt this would be *that* widespread), then load that up when it's sent back in. When a camera is sent in for processing, read its key then deactivate the key so it can never be read again.
Okay, there's a problem if someone gets their hands on the database, but that would be much harder to do. And remember, this is what a college sophmore thought up in the ten minutes it took to read though the other replies.
That hasn't stopped people from failing to find a problem with it in two and a half decades, unless said problem is deep in the annals of some intellegence organization...
"We don't know where the 9 were at the time. Most likely, they were spread all across middle earth looking for Frodo."
There were at least a fair number of the Nazgul near Mount Doom. From p. 925 in my edition (the 3 vol. paperback with the movie pictures on the cover): "At his summons, wheeling with a rending cry, in a last desperate race there flew, faster than the winds, the Nazgul, the Ringwraiths, and with a storm of wings they hurtled southwards to Mount Doom."
"...even if Sauron immediately sent out every army he had to converge on Osgiliath it would still take of the order of days (not minutes or hours) to get there."
Most of The Nine (those that were around Minas Morgul) could have been there in probably an hour at most. It's about 25 miles from Minas Morgul to Osgiliath, so if the winged stead (because I can't think of the animals' name...) can fly 50 mph (not too unreasonable considering the above quote and the other appearances), they could make it there and back in under an hour.
I agree. I don't see any way to conclude the story without Aragon using the Palantir, and I don't see any way of him getting the Palantir except from Isengard, and see no way they can go to Isengard and not show Saruman.
Actually I suppose Aragon could use Denethor's Palantir...
Not nearly as precise as what we're getting here. For instance, the Perfect Solar Storm of 1849 (or whatever they call it) was probably stronger, but we have no objective measure.
Wow, not only do people think I was being serious with the "Yes, because the NRA advocates murder" comment, but they *still* think it after I reply chastising the mods for their flamebait moderation. Unless you thought that was serious too.
I fully agree with my flamebait moderation. Because you know, I was being completely serious in my previous post. It was not a comment made tongue-in-cheek or sarcastic in any way, shape, or form.
The point is that Symantec sells this to libraries and schools and other public institutions that have tighter first amendment restrictions than private organizations, and in fact that said organizations are essentially being required to subscribe to such services so they don't have to lose federal funding and drastically reduce service.
What do handguns have to do with this particular thread? The point is not *what* is being censored, but it's that non-obscene websites showing only one side of a political debate are being censored. One's views on gun control are irrelevant on this topic. I wouldn't want the NRA's site censored any more than a vehelment anti-gun site. (Okay, that's not true, but I don't like either.) The ends don't justify the means.
And the point the parent was trying to make was that while it might be the same to *you*, you are probably in a very small minority. I, for instance, would *much* rather be released after time in prison than be put to death.
So in other words, if you were innocent, you wouldn't care if you were executed or put in jail for 25 years then released for the next 25 until your natural death?
How 'bout set up a filter that will automatically send all of these to the abuse department of both RR and the original source (if the headers aren't too forged)?
C'mon scientists, usually you replace our understanding with something much more intricate and complex. But now you replace a fun story with something much more boring. Couldn't you have kept it to yourself?
I'm not saying that the 3 mi is the minimum safe distance for hearing a launch. I'm just saying that 3 mi is the distance NASA determined to be the cutoff for spectators to be, who don't have any reason to be close other than to say "ooo, that looks cool." This distance was set, according to the tour guide I had at KSC at any rate, by acoustic levels at launch. (IIRC; I didn't actually verify the distance, but that's what I remember anyway.)
He's saying that if you build a rocket many miles high gravity won't be uniform over the entire thing, where it is for all intents and purposes at the scale of a model.
Birds at least vacate the area; they have warning whistles around the launch site that go off a couple minutes prior to launch. Other small animals burrow.

Oh, right, I was thinking that Aragorn didn't use the Palantir until he was at Minas Tirith.

Yes, because the NRA advocates murder.

But you can fix things for the future.
You can't reverse all of the punishment, but you can reverse part of it.
C'mon scientists, usually you replace our understanding with something much more intricate and complex. But now you replace a fun story with something much more boring. Couldn't you have kept it to yourself?
I agree. Even Win98 somewhat rarely crashed. I have only had XP crash *once*. In over a year of use.

Yep. As with the Shuttle launches, the noise is actually what makes the safe distance 3 miles, not anything having to do with the rocket exhaust.
