Man, you have hit the nail on the head...(pun intended)......We as a group are forced to address problems in the MOST creative ways (We have done SO much, for SO long,.....) and then usually have to agree to someone (PHB) else's whims, that when it comes time to relax, but still be vital i.e...for PAY... it serves us well to do something that feeds our creative side, so we can also DECIDE how to interpret that (fleeting and fickle) artistic impulse.
I think you are ignoring the "Batman" factor. It's not whether you CAN "read" their blood pressure at fifty paces or that you can "see" their pupils dilate from the horizon...It's whether or not STUPID people believe it. Bertillon teaches us that "the classes that embrace crime are the ones LEAST LIKELY TO MAKE IT PAY" (emphasis mine). Ergo, if some tool is watching CSI in a vain hope of avoiding the joint, by "studying" what to do and not, let him ASSUME he will be caught by a test he ain't even SEEN yet. "let society be both weak enough to offer temptation, yet strong enough to hold it back" H. Alger.
Well.... The real question isn't who will use it, but who will use it WITHOUT ACTUALLY LOADING IT.......Let's see, a "browser" that connects for you, filters your input and "protects" you by censoring and "digitally checking" your music and images for copyright infringement. Then to be "safe" prevents you from "searching" for those nasty warez sites, and MP3 sites and cracker/hacker sites.......The list goes on. Big Brother needs to STAY THE FUCK OUT OF MY BOXEN !!!!!
Ahhhhh....Last millenium???? But surely you realise that XP and Longhorn will SUPPLANT and REPLACE the BIOS....thereby adding yet another way for M$ to cripple and censure anybody they chose to....for ANY reason.
Nice letter, firm and to the point, but in a CONSUMER context. The best thing Kodak can do at this point, in a BUSINESS sense. is to leverage their "code" in a recapitalization move by , let's say "leasing" this patent to say M$ or hell anybody vis-a-vis Sony's CD-ROM model. But that's the business vs. consumer model.
I have recently scavenged a P4 "M" class(2.0 gHz)
from a broken laptop (e-mail me and I'll tell ya the story....OMG) and installed it in a mini-ATX LANboy case I built.
No problems, standard heatsink, RAM at 1 Gb, and running Fedora Core 2 for a week with 0 downtime. Intel may be good-to-go with this idea, and we (geeks) may be the true winners here....
The same fact that this IT ne'er-do-well amply demonstrates TWICE is that he has NO EXPERIENCE. He's OBVIOUSLY some MCSE tool hired at minimum wage until "he got his feet wet" loading 300 of the same machine with the same AW-ffice $oftware. The central fact ignored by most of the people reading these parent articles is this : HIRE A FU%#IN' PROFESSIONAL !!!!!!
Ummmmmmmm...Please understand I'm speaking for NO ONE ELSE BUT ME....Now that I've made that clear, Please discontinue ALL religious rhetoric when discussing technical and information issues. Reference President Roosevelt's comments for clarity, should you need to do so.
Yeah, RIGHT !!!!! RTFA, and then rub a few brain cells together to get the POINT. You see, the POINT is Viruses DO "Just Appear" on your boxen, just by "surfing the web" and looking at nothing more tittilating than Fark. You know, with that same attitude, THOUSANDS of little boxen are being infected by PASSIVE pass-through virii, and so on and so on...and You certainly won't be part of the solution, now WILL YOU?
Well, I certainly get your drift about the next 200 bug-ridden relases of Micro$oft's product line, I also KNOW they would NEVER call a product 2600 ('cause of the anti-hacker stance of Micro$oft) BTW, contribute early and often to 2600.com
Great comment and almost totally on the money... Except of course for the "no benefit to speeding" concept. Speeding ALWAYS has a benefit, whether it's me hauling ass to a hospital I work for, to take a (small) part in saving a life, or just going to the store for milk. I really wish people would wake the fuck up and realize "Traffic is defined and structured BY THE FLOW thereof". This seems simple, but I have given up hope that people will start to understand this BASIC logic.
But, on the third hand (Larry Niven) we also might want to contemplate the Republican side and use the metals-extraction technology and null-gravity refinment technology to make oodles of bucks, thereby stair-stepping the building of this radio/emitter to contact this other similar system.
Oh...Yeah............RIGHT !!!! Next let's check the Fooselezer and the Rat-atatter and hope for the best when the Bring-atilly goes online for the quarkdrive.
