Because, if you just decompress the mp3s the only thing you get back is the larger file, the quality is gone forever. Re-rip the track or leave it compressed otherwise you just found the best way to waste the space, perhaps other then archiving slashdot.
Oh but we didn't give up with thoese guys. Take Sum 41, and avril lavien(sp?), simple plan, just from the pop-punk 'genre'. Not to mention that L.A. is the third largest Canadian city with more Canadian citizens living and working there then the popultion of Vancover(at least a few years ago anyway).
What slashdot really needs is a +1 *Groan* Mod, but I suspose you'd need to do some work under the hood for that. Someone should really get in gear on this.
Take up winter sports(complaining about winter is the most popular). I'd rather pay the tax and get the healthcare and education system over keeping the money and watching civilization slip quickly out of view. If we could only peirce the corporate veil and remove coporate personhood all would be well.
I'm not a sadist, I take no pleasure from pain. However I do think that is a good way to make people too fucking scared to commit the crime in the first place. Next time own up to your comment coward.
Good, the next step is to get those same people executed for a first offence. Preferably in the street in a manner chosen by whom ever gets 51% of the body. Assuming the sicko survives the process of division.
Given how technology tends to develop I'd say that your best bet to make sure you'll be right on the bleeding edge, or at least not left behind in your future career, go into porn.
I may be mistaken because they were before my time, but I think the 740K disks were usable in the 1.44M drives, but not vice versa, or at least not to their full utility.
This was already tried, didn't take too well. Zip Drive and
Jaz Drive where what came of the effort, at the time I remember media being rather expensive.
Learning corpspeak will make stories like this easier to read. The litteral translation of their sales pitch comes out to be "I'm an idiot; Give me money."
getting paid to be a nutbag off tax payers' and students' dime.
Thats the best kind of professor, or would you rather he brought a bible(or accepted textbook) to class and read directly from that. So what hes doing right now is 'worthless' other then perhaps he actually did he job as a professor and caused people to think, in this case about their privacy.
This has to be proof of a low UID getting a free ride from the mods, I don't mean to attack personally. Just because you can't see the value in something doesn't mean its devoid of value.
Also the professor was a Canadian so leave your tax payers arugment out of, we canucks are used to paying the government for useless shit doesn't seem to bother us as much.
Yea there isn't a high enough percentage of people in prison form the US. Lets put more NON-VIOLENT people who only commited a crime against property(If you tell me spam is a personal assault I'll come down there and smack you) Why not out grafitti artists in jail for 20 years, them sons a bitches attacked my PHYSICAL wall, and damaged it, can't just delete that. What about posters in major cities, 50 years, do you know how many posters they put up day, that can't just be deleted.
The problem is this is a technical problem not a social one. Fix it in code, not codify it in law.
That $10 usually goes right to the movies production company, unless your watching the movie weeks after first release. The theaters make their money on snacks(hence $5 farking popcorn) and the ads. I just tune them out, just like with TV. Let the baby have it's bottle. If you can't tune out a few minutes of noise then how on earth do you get by day to day.
I worked answering the phones for the US Consulate in Toronto for a summer, and it happens all the time. I got lots of calls fom people in just such situations. Hell up to last year anyway lots of you guys were comming into Canada without even bringing any photo ID. I mean thats just sad right? Well I digress... If you lose what ever documentation you needed to get back into the US go to the consulate. If you lost it in the US, report it missing. Very simple.

That must really suck considering the money you spent advertising it. How much did that UID cost again?
Well actually the TV show was first obviously, and the movie has to be nearly done as well. So, wrong.
I agree KISS, but single point of failure IS the problem in this case. So the problem as the solution doesn't make much sence.
To be fair, are you going to go to an asian country and try and smuggle drugs?

This is of course after all appeals.

I know, but I always wish that more people would have told me to go into porn when seeking career advice.

Do you people have some kind of alarm that goes off when ever someone mentions "low UID", is it like the bat signal?
