July 7th was announced as national handcluffing day when hordes of hackers would be paraded around the streets in major cities.
A correction has been issued from John Ashcroft: " July 7th was announced as national handcluffing day when hordes of terrorists would be paraded around the streets in major cities.
Does this bill have any chance of getting through the two houses of Congress?
That and, will it make it out of committee?
Many bills are often "keyholed" and remain stuck in committees or are simply rejected by committee. So lets hope that it makes it out of the committee to which it is refered.
That said, maybe the prices of image editing applications will drop slightly when corporations don't have to pay fees to Unisys.
Ha! Hahaha. Like they'll drop their prices...
I bet your typical photoshop user has no idea that GIFs are patented. Which means Adobe will feel no pressure whatsoever to lower prices. Besides, people will still pay $500 for photoshop. And the price drop would be what? maybe $20 max?
Well, I guess I shouldn't have specified live journal. My guess would be that easy publishing websites (blogger, live journal, etc...) are more often (but not always) used by people who just want an online journal. Also, the name "live journal" implies that it's a journal, not a blog.
In fact, my first 'blog' was hosted on blogger. It was mostly a journal. Then I switched to hosting it myself with more advanced software (movable type) and my blog migrated into a more news-oriented feature. As a result, I split my blog into a more journal-oriented blog and a news/science/politics blog.
I agree completely that a blog is about getting what you want to say out there. That's what I use mine for. I was merely responding to a comment that indicated that all blogs were just about mundane things that happened during the day.
I agree with this. If you want to 'protect' your blog, the best (and possibly only) way to do it is with.htaccess and by assigning passwords to people you'd like to have access to your site.
I think you're confusing a weblog with a "livejournal". A weblog is similar to slashdot (or warblogging.com and back-to-iraq.com). In fact, my weblog (http://privon.com) deals with politics, science, and civil rights as well as opinion pieces I've written about various issues. A weblog is another source of information.
What you're thinking of is commonly called a "livejournal" and it's exactly that - a journal. Some blogs are also journals. For example, I've got two 'blogs'. One is the one I mentioned above. The other is slightly more journal oriented, with me posting about things I've done that my family and friends (and possibly others) might find interesting. For example, I've recently posted about visiting the Trek Bicycles Demo Day as well as some of my latest photography experiences.
It might be beneficial for you to review your definition of a blog. Blogs can be an excellent source of information, not just a diary.
That's probably illegal. Besides, I doubt the power company wouldn't be too happy with someone stringing up wires on their poles. Also, you run the risk of electrocuting yourself while putting the wires up.
Easy for you to say! It's much easier to tell people it'll be ok when your Mom still lets you stay in that room downstairs...
I got thrown out last summer.:(
As they spin, the momentum from their motion causes the telescope to move.
Well, it's techincally a litter different than that. The wheels don't actually cause hubble to translate within a plane. Instead they rotate hubble. By turning the spinning wheels, a torque is exerted on hubble, causing it to rotate.
And, to think I used to complain about having to get the tripod out for exposures that were longer than 1/8th of a second! I'll never comlpain about slow film or lenses again!
Yeah, and you'd think NASA could afford 1600 ASA film for the price they paid for hubble... I mean geez!
Slashdot Mirror
eh... the horrors of "Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V"...

neurostarnaw, there could be a combination of different weather effects, or different intensities of each type of weather.
neurostarBah, I've got an easier way of forcasting the weather (doesn't require a window)
*rolls some dice*
Apply a screwdriver to it; reassemble in the proper order.
My favorite "solving" technique was a lot simpler... peel off the stickers and arrange them into the solution.
neurostarmacbidouille(french, rather new, so reliability unconfirmed)
Ahhh... a "Freedom Mac" site. No wonder their reliability hasn't been confirmed...
Ever try posting about BSD in a Linux group?
Bah, that's nothing... Try posting about IRIX in the Windows 95 support forum...
The ultimate solution to the problem is to let computers write the software themselves.
Coming soon... "Microsoft HAL". This updated version of "Microsoft BOB" writes his own code and decides what's good for you.
One big paragraph!?!? AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! MY EYES!!
Have you no shame?
Geeks around the world are still expecting XXX :)
nope, they aren't.
Yeah, and if we're lucky, we'll get a dupe! Then we can get 'em twice!
how did he manage to make a copy?
Bah, that's easy...
tweezers, a really small magnet, and lots of time are all you need...
you'll be stuck running your code on a microsoft server
http://www.apache-asp.org/
neurostarCurrently just supports perl scripting though.
better than nothing ;)
Of course, password protecting webpages isn't something I've ever done or needed to do, so I'm not sure of the alternatives.
neurostaroooo, but i do... ;)

neurostarWhy don't you run coaxils along the power lines

neurostarChin up slashdoters.

yeah, good point. I meant that post as a joke... but I guess the mods that got those two got me as well.
neurostarheh.
