Theory 2 overlooks the possiblility that the "profit" comes not in the form of money, but that if two child molesters exchange materials, each gets "exciting, new" child pornography in exchange for easy and cheap to make copies of stuff they already have on hand that may have, from their point of view, have lost some of its "inspirational power".
Study after study come to the same conclusion, the single biggest factor in education bar none is the quality of the teacher.
Then every one of those studies must be severely flawed, because there's no way that the student's home life and parental situation are not major contributors.
Parents who care enough about their kids to help them escape the system shouldn't have to support the system at the same time.
People without children have to support the system. Public schools exist to keep the neighborhood from filling up with illiterates. This protects property values. That's why schools are paid for out of property taxes and why attendance is forced by law.
If I pay someone to write a new bible, the default position is that the publisher owns it.
Let's change the word "bible" to "book" so as to avoid having to deal with the extra confusion over what, if any, rights are retained by the divine inspirer of the work in question.
So, if you pay someone to write a new book, is that not just two parties to the transaction? How did the publisher insert himself into the middle of things?
Unless I'm reading wrong, this *is* PCI-Express all right, just a different physical interface with an additional (most likely optional) lane and some new, fancy I/O lines.
But why USB 2.0? That would be a perfect place to include 3.0, wouldn't it?
Well, first they have to sell as many with 2.0 as they can, and then come up with something that needs 3.0 to work right so that everybody has to buy new ones to replace the 2.0 ones so that they can sell twice as many as they would have otherwise.
And then it's time to change the physical interface on new products so that when you upgrade anything you can't use either the 2.0 or the 3.0 versions and have to start buying new stuff again. Don't you understand how computers really work? : - )
Perhaps not, but what New Orleans suffered from was failure of the levees due to the Army Corps of Engineers. Go over to HuffingtonPost and look at Harry Shearer's previous posts on the subject.
If you meant liquid crystal displays, then you meant LCD. Stands for Liquid Crystal Diode (which are the little thingies that turn on and off to make the picture), not Liquid Crystal Display. Not an Automatic Teller Machine machine or Personal Identification Number number situation.
Because I want to watch television on a television set, not in a tiny "window" on a computer monitor, and I don't want anything on the screen except the television show, and I want to be able to use all of my computer monitor's "real estate" for "computering".
I have a DVR at home built with leftover parts and a $40 tuner card that works just fine. I can also move those files between my laptop and any other computer, so I can take my recorded shows anywhere.
Can you watch those shows on an actual television set without having to use that set as the computer's video display?
Slashdot Mirror
Is your sig a direct quote of someone else?
I ask because the actual phrase is "for all intents and purposes".
Oh, and I disagree about the "no longer a word"-ness of "whom".
With the right heat sink the old Socket 4 original Pentiums could serve as waffle irons. : - )
It's sad that $1.4 billion had to be spent on the project before the discovery that this poorly conceived idea would not work.
Or perhaps it's sad that they were able to conceal the fact that it wouldn't work until we had been screwed out of $1.4 billion.

But don't put the least significant unit in _the_middle_!!!
Except that the date of the anniversary of my birth or of my next dental appointment are difficult to think of as the least significant. : - )
I was wondering where you found a recently manufactured portable reel to reel, and now I see that you didn't.
I also see that they cost more now than new.
What brand and model number is this portable reel to reel tape recorder of which you speak?
So, how soon until newegg.com has the fake ones in stock?
They've been using nuclear reactors for sub generation since the '50s.

Film at 11.
It turns out we won't be seeing that film after all, as it is currently tied up in a copyright dispute.
Liquid crystal displays are made up of Liquid Crystal Diodes, therefore LCD display is accurate and acceptable.
Yes, but a quick application of the Compressed Sensing Algorithm to the lettters CS will shortly reveal that it stands for Compressed Sensing.
If it stood for Computer Science instead, the algorithm would have been able to sense that, in a compressed sort of way.

...'Google's algorithms learn less common search terms better than others because many more people are conducting searches on these terms on Google.
So the problem is that Google is more successful because more people use it, or people who need to search for hard to find things use it more?
let's say for LCD displays...
I meant LC Displays

As it happens I've got a spare TiVo ethernet card knocking around. Email me if you want it.
If he doesn't have that Tivo anymore and if it's a Series One card please reach me at coastalnet.com
Why should it matter?
Because I want to watch television on a television set, not in a tiny "window" on a computer monitor, and I don't want anything on the screen except the television show, and I want to be able to use all of my computer monitor's "real estate" for "computering".
So you were in "Training Union" that night too, huh? : - )

So The Lomborg Deception isn't about some spy novelist's later works being heavily ghostwritten?
I can used the squeeze?
