They're requesting the MAC addresses of other devices, using ARP. The problem seems to be at least partially the fault of Duke's network. From TFA:
"The requests are for what is, at least for Duke's network, an invalid router address. Devices use the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to request the MAC address of the destination node, for which it already has the IP address. When it doesn't get an answer, the iPhone just keeps asking."

Ruzhou, China, November 26, 2004: Intruder stabs eight students to death and injured four others at a high school - the sixth such incident in China in four months.

"I personally think programs designed to aviod network security should be banned at the govermental level (that is a tenant of hacking, isn't it, - avoid security). This would force P2P and other programs to use easily identifiable port numbers. That would allow ISP's to present customers with clear service choices in an economically viable model."
There's already been something like that proposed. Details are available in RFC 3514
I say get rid of all the tax breaks on biofuels, get rid of restrictions on exporting and importing biofuels, and let the private market figure out what to do.
If corn ethanol really costs more than in produces, it will not be profitable, and private businesses won't invest in it. If there is a way to make it profitable, private businesses will be able to find it.
That's because that is what it is. It is a paid service. By socializing medicine, you aren't making the costs dissapear -- you're just having taxpayers foot the bill.
Don't do this. The government considers US passports to be its property not yours, and mutilating your passport can get you in trouble, especially if you did it on purpose. Plus, there will be a lot of paperwork to fill out if you ever want another passport.
I currently live in China, and Tor is great. China blocks a bunch of fairly random things, and some not so random things, like bbc news, wikipedia, and blogspot, and tor will let you view them.
If you actually read the whole article, you would've seen this sentence: "In fact, antipsychotic drugs were as effective as pyrimethamine, a drug that specifically eliminates Toxoplasma." (emphasis mine)
Even better than that, check out the HijackThis Log auto analyzer over at iamnotageek.com, they even give you cross-references to some of the nastier pieces you may have on your computer.
Deaf people do listen to music. It's basically all bass, and you feel the vibrations. If you ever go to a Deaf convention, you'll probably be feeling this music throughout the convention hall.
That would create a paradox, it would click a link because in the future you were to click that link, but since it clicked that link for you, you couldn't have clicked the link, and the information it used to determine which link to click couldn't possibly have existed, so we're screwed.
Yes, but it should be able to detect what link that it will choose for you in the future thus bypassing the paradox. Or something like that.
I've actually seen this done before on a browser-based game. In addition to an extremely weak captcha (same font, simple blue gridlines, no skewing or distortion, re-use of images), they actually had the real text in a hidden form field.
I grew up in Anchorage AK, and we'd get moose in our yard regularly during the winter. We just left them alone, as long as they weren't a danger. We actually had a bear at my school once; unfortunately it had to be shot, as it was a threat to the schoolkids, and tranquilizers don't guarantee being effective.
My DNA is already on record. My father works for the State Dept., and they have my DNA on file for posthumous identification in case of a terrorist attack, although I'm sure they could do whatever they want to with it.
Even better, try flashblock. It's an extension for firefox that will block flash files from being loaded until you click on them, get it at flashblock.mozdev.org
I believe the city of Austin, Texas tried something like this once. The city had a bunch of yellow bikes placed throughout the city for free use. Needless to say, people looking for an easy buck found repainting them worked wonders.
"Consumers have a reasonable expectation that they can replace the original product with a competing universal product without violating federal law," Judge Rebecca M. Pallmeyer said.
What's the difference between buying a third-party garage door opener and buying a third-party ink cartrige?
That's odd, try logging out then back in or something. I'm sure it's working, I've very recently (within a month) checked and downloads were working fine.

whoops, posted before I finished reading the article, the invalid router address has nothing to do with Duke's network.

I want to know where the hell you get your games.

Yeah, they're an extra $60 plus overnight shipping, and if you messed up on any forms then you have to pay it all over again.

Simple. Then the irish scan you.

Yeah, except that if an autogiro stalls (and they do), there is no way to recover.
