My eyes and monitor are good, but I can't tell what the labels are to. Couldn't anyone draw a line to whatever the item is that they think is the rover? I'm just not seeing it at all. It's like where's Waldo in black and white but with a much, much smaller Waldo.
If you're at the top of the scale, it doesn't matter to you. You can get insurance, bodyguards, etc. to protect you from crime. if you're at the bottom, it doesn't matter to you, because you have nothing, no one's interested in robbing you. If you're in the disappearing middle section, you're being victimized both by the lower end which steals from you, and by the top end, by virtue of not being able to afford the insurance/bodyguards the top end affords.
If the brain doesn't have to worry about forking over cash, that explains why free items are so ridiculously popular... even something that people would sign away their privacy or credit to get, like free t-shirt for credit card apps that you see all over any college campus.
Those things were staples of every computer room as a file server, plus they had great games and that classic mac shape. They are remarkably stable, etc. I still have a Mac Classic, its awesome as well, but not quite as boxy.
It's not illegal to hunt robot deer, it's illegal to hunt real deer. If you want to argue in court, it seems like a slam dunk to say that this in fact is not a real deer, so you can't be busted for hunting a real deer when you didn't actually shoot a real one.
While 5-10 minutes might be too long for a vending machine-to-individual interface, imagine if your favorite bookstore or library had a few of these. You could order a book they didn't have in stock and browse for a few minutes, and then pick it up instead of having to go elsewhere or maybe not get it at all (out of prints). That seems like the most obvious implementation.
I thought I heard that the new blogger was going to allow you to earn back some of the ad revenue from your blog, so that you weren't just generating income for the parent company off of your traffic. Can anyone confirm?
I've heard that a dog's sense of smell is a million times better than ours, and that they can detect a scent trail 3 weeks old. I'm pretty sure that if humans could really do that, we wouldn't need dogs to do it... not to mention that dogs don't seem to mind if they sniff something gross on the way!
There's really no point to competing with apple, because if they get mad, they'll just do a subscription service on the ipod, and since their install base is already so large, they'd basically be pulling a microsoft and killing all the competition for at least several more years, even with zero additional innovation.
"None of the Microsoft people I met had anything to say about their deal with Novell, working with the Open Document Format (ODF), acceptance of the GNU General Public License (GPL) as a legitimate software license, how DRM built into Vista may anger users, or other topics I thought might interest you."
This is just a way to regulate satellite radio, since it also simulcasts on the internet. All these guys need to take a break and take a page from Dick Cheney's public vocabulary: "fuck off".

Getting tricky in any language is usually a sign you don't really know what your doing.
Of course sales will go down to some extent. People are buying songs, and then since they don't: lose the "cd", etc., they don't need to re-buy the songs. Eventually they buy most or all of the songs they ever wanted, and thus sales slow way down.
I'd say any sysadmin that was good at being bad wouldn't have anything show up on a background check anyhow. However, if they are either good, or evil but dumb, then by all means, background checks help... assuming you judge the nature of the crime to some extent. Of course, if they've been busted for 5 computer-related felonies, then there you go.
100,000 is very low, on a typical home machine if you're getting hundreds or thousands of attempts by bots, then surely the biggest software maker is getting millions. However, if they mean 100,000 attacks by individuals per month, meaning someone directly trying to "hack into microsoft", that seems impressively high. Wouldn't at least several of those get in through social engineering alone (i.e. pretend to be hot girl, get password, etc.)?
if "Microsoft has responded by saying it has offered to completely cover the cost of systems affected by the update, including shipping", then I don't see how there'd be much of a case... they're offering to make good on the initial upset, so how can they also be expected to compensate those same people twice for the same fix (once for the actual shipping, and then again for an amount equal to that in cash)?
You graduate TO google. The reason this will not happen is that people are still heading towards Google to make cool products. They will pay you to work on your own stuff at least 20% of the time, what better investment could you get?

I was impressed that so many of the predictions hit on security and government regulation/censorship issues.
technological Jesus's mac doesn't crash. Of course, the miracle is that neither does his windows PC!
technological Jesus downloads just 1 song onto his iPod, and 500 people can listen to it simultaneously.
technological Jesus just has to touch a windows PC, and it turns into a mac.

doesn't know or doesn't care? I bet the dog can smell the difference but would eat peanut butter as soon as jelly...

"Bill gates' wallet" green? BSOD blue? "Beige box" beige? That would be great! Of course, queue the brown ~ crap jokes...

So which of those 9 shut-down options can we eliminate now? Probably all but the one that goes "shut the hell off"?

You got the saying wrong, it may not be politically correct, but it's "rich getting richer while the poor get children".
