The IQ average can not rise ever, since the average has been defined to be 100. This is also why you have enter sex and age when taking IQ-test in order to calibrate the test towards your demographic group.
CNN and NBC are quite slanted, it is amazing to watch the same newsstory in BCC and CNN, and just notice how a few key facts get omited, and gives the story a completely different feel.
And sinse I haven't noticed any important facts reported on CNN missed at BBC, I assume the slant lies with CNN.
I can understand why they doing it though, by being not nearly as evil as Fox they have earned a wrongfull reputation of being left-wing, which must really hurt the republicans running the censor-show there.
I think that would be mostle Alice trying to kill Eve, as Bob would just be trying to convince his girlfriend Alice that they should have a triangle with Eve; you know to save the human race and all...
Nvidia is pretty much the same. For all I like to bitch about Windows, the NVidia drivers are still the only thing that has ever made Windows 2000 "crash" for me (actually the desktop just becomes unreachable, due to some nview fuck-up, but same effect).
In the same tone, the only time I've had TV-output work easily on a NVidia card was on a pre-installed computer. Usually you can make it work, but it takes 1-2 hours of wrestling with Nview, a few reboots, and crying in pain, untill you find the right combination of booting with tv-cable in, hitting the right preferences in the right order in obscure sub-dialogs, before it finally works.
In short: if you live in a region that considers ISO-8859-1 to be a default, then 437 is for you, if you live somewhere else, you probably already know all this, and you have only read it this far to see if you could correct some of more glaring mistakes I have made.
I believe you mean 850, the international european codepage. 437 is US-only, and corresponds more to ASCII than Latin-1.
He is just a front figure of a large international cracking group. He has already been to court once, and is protected by a largely fair norwegian legal-system, so each time the group have something controversial (whenever they have something) they have him release it.
Think of a country like Sudan. $100 billion is not going to save that country's problems.
Actually, that is enough to save several poor african countries. The political problems involed in saving one country over another, and making sure the money gets spend right without destroying the local economy, or loosing them to corruption, just makes such a thinh impractically for philantropes that are only looking for good publicity.
Not really it has more to do with undocumented features and implementation of NTFS, like always with Microsoft.
I think writing to a NTFS4 from Windows NT 4 is supposed to work, but Microsoft introduced new wierd stuff and changed some old when they released NTFS5 with Windows 2000 and XP.
It still has many bugs. They've eliminated all the important bugs I guess, but freespace management is still fucked up. "No space left on device" errors when df reports 200Mb free. Free-space leaks, where space disappears until you call fsck.
I am using the most recent versions, but I am really starting to hate my reiserfs partitions.
Because sooner or later they will be forced to by a anti-trust settlement.
Because they have already been convicted of misusing their monopoly and thereby indirectly of having a monopoly with the special anti-trust rules that goes with it, they need to prove that _not_ releasing Office for Linux is a sound business decision for the Office part of Microsoft, and just for the company as a whole. If Linux gets enough desktop-installations they will be unable to prove that, and forced to make the Linux release.
KDE has always been working on Solaris, the hard thing is to make it work with Sun's own compiler instead of gcc. KDE also works on Tru64, HP-UX, AIX and IRIS besides all the *BSDs and Linux.
So. That's exactly why I want them to be legal. Without the competion of illegal copies, there is nothing to compete with and keep the prices down for console-games.
They are already more expensive than PC-games because they are harder to copy. Let's not let the prices get even more out of hand by copying less.
Seriously, I've been looking for a new phone with no extra features - just wanted GSM phone, which is light and small to carry in a pocket. It also must look good, but that's subjective. Something like this (Nokia 8910), but triband or at least Canada-compatible.
If thats what you're looking, for gods sake avoid Nokia. Try one of Siemens or Ericsons serious models instead. Nokia has always been about features, and features alone (who else makes phones that crashes and needs reboots) and their problem now is that they are behind in the stupid feature-game.
Actually the death plux x years _only_ applies when there are multiple owners, especially corporate ones. It wouldn't make much sense else (copyright is not inheritable).

Is taking a copy of something you own illegal?
It might be illegal to publish for the ones you download from, but it is not illegal for you if you already own the cartridge.

The same reason you don't prove every program you write is mathematically correct. It is not very compatible and a lot of hard boring work.
(In fact it is usually so much work, the chance of an error in the proof-reader is greater than the chance of an error in the proof)

That is _so_ going to piss you off after a few minutes use.

It seems rather useless to me if it doesnt.
No more useless infrared interference please.
There was a partial klingon translation some years ago. It was scraped from lack of maintainence (and usage).
Just use a GSM phone. They are can dial 911 without a SIM-card (and even if the phone has been reported stolen and blocked).

The World Cup and The European Cup are not nearly as bad, and they are the worlds two largest sporting events with the Olympics as a distant third.
It is: notice the 4 icons besides the story? They represents the sections this story is in.
Okay, I admit it, I was wrong. He is the man..

Of course Miguel could fork it, create a company called Yimian, and Sun would have to buy him again.
I bet it would have to GPL then, which is not as valuable as owning the original copyright, and be able to sell closed source licenses.
