Did you look at the same profiles / pages on both laptops? FB logs GET requests. If you looked at a group of profiles with account A, and the same / similar group of profiles with account B, it assumes the profiles that both A and B looked at are mutual friends between accounts A and B.
Use a mouse that has switchable CPI. I use a SteelSeries Kana v2.0 and it has a button just aft of the scroll wheel that can be used for this purpose. I'm pretty sure you can assign it to any button you want. The scroll wheel even has an LED that glows at different levels depending on which CPI you have selected. Not sure if the Rival has these features or not.
I have three 2TB disks; we'll call them 1, 2, and 3. Disks 1 and 2 are RAID 1; disk 3 is stored in a fireproof safe. Every so often, I break the array and move either disk 1 or 2 (we'll use disk 2 in this example) to the safe, and rebuild the array with disks 1 and 3, using disk 1 as the source. This is only a means of protection if you have software RAID, since in a hardware RAID the third "floating" disk will only be readable by the controller that synced it.
Let's say this Twinkie represents the output of the factory prior to automation. According to our data, after automation it would be a Twinkie 35 feet long weighing approximately 600 pounds.
Class of 2001 here. Born and raised in rural Pennsylvania.
Middle school: Mandatory half-year touch typing course. Our class was the last to use Apple IIe's for this, before they redid our computer labs and installed Gateway machines. I'm told this is now done in the elementary schools with Alpha-Smarts. Back in my day, the elementary schools did not have enough computers for everyone to use one every day (1-2 per classroom and a single computer lab for the entire school).
9th grade: Mandatory half-year "Computer Applications" course. Touched on word processing, spreadsheets, and databases. I believe we used Works 4.0 for this.
10th-12th grade: All computer courses were elective. I think we had some advanced word processing / business courses offered, which I skipped because they weren't in my area of interest. On the programming side, our school offered half-year "intro" courses in BASIC, LOGO, and Pascal. In 1999, BASIC was eliminated in favor of VB. Full-year courses in VB and Pascal were available if you passed the intro course for that language. Also in 1999, "Multimedia" was added to the curriculum. I use that term loosely because there were two half-year courses offered: Basic and Advanced. "Basic Multimedia" was just a fancy name for Powerpoint 101; "Advanced Multimedia" was just a fancy name for Netscape Publisher 101.
During my high school career, I took all the programming courses mentioned, as well as both multimedia courses. The multimedia courses were pretty much a waste of time, since I had already more or less mastered HTML by then. I think LOGO would have served a better purpose as a middle school elective, because you can't really do anything useful with it, although it does serve as a great illustration of getting the computer to do what YOU tell it to, with instantaneous feedback. I also think BASIC was redundant because most of the concepts taught in that class were also taught in Pascal. I'm glad they switched to VB, because although it's not much use at an introductory level, it does serve as a good illustration of OOP. I think the Pascal courses were the most beneficial for teaching me HOW to program. One of the exercises our teacher had us do was to draw a chart to track the value of each variable at each line of code. I program large fire alarm systems in high-rises for a living, which mostly just use Boolean logic, but even to this day I still use that technique to track the status of each output at each line of code.
Or buy an MP3 player with MSC mode. Take it to a friends house and copy all of your music onto his hard drive. Then have him copy his music onto your MP3 player. (For the uninformed, MSC is USB Mass Storage Class mode, which means that your player presents itself to your OS as just another flash drive, meaning that you don't have to install any software in order to transfer files to/from it.)
Actual conversation during the first week of tech school:

Assuming Kazaa was logging all downloads, what server would be doing the logging? Remember, unlike Napster, there is no "central authority" that keeps an index of all the files shared by all the clients on the network. On the Kazaa network, all the indexing is done by a second tier of Supernodes. The only way all the downloads and/or searches could be logged is if every single Supernode (we're talking thousands here) was doing the logging (and the operators of said Supernodes all being in on the game.) The only way a network like Kazaa could be keeping a log of all the activity is if every single client did, in fact, send all of its searches to two servers: the network of Supernodes and another central server, which would be evident by looking at the source code.
Yes, but your remote doesn't have eyeballs. If you create a macro on your remote that, for example, turns your TV on, VCR on, switches your TV to the VCR input, and plays the videocassette, it is assuming that your TV and VCR are both Off at the time the macro is run. However, if someone manually turned the TV on before the macro was run, then running the macro would cause the TV to turn Off and the VCR on, which is useless. This is because, when you push "Power" on your remote control, the remote simply tells the TV "Change your state," rather than explicitly telling it to "Turn on" or "Turn off". If the latter was the case, then whenever the TV was already on and it received a command to "Turn on," it would just ignore the command.
Do the units you bought have a "Housecode" dial on them (Usually labelled with letters A-P)? If they do, try changing that. The problem is that other people in your neighborhood are likely using similar devices and they are set to the same address as yours.
No, that wouldn't work. In all of the letters sent by the RIAA's lawyers to those being sued, they said something along the lines of, "I affirm under penalty of perjury that I am authorized to act on behalf of $label." You are correct in that the RIAA does not own any copyrights, but they have been authorized to act on behalf of those who do.
...at worst they're only proving that the client had SOME of A FILE which happened to come together into the song in the end. For instance, let's say I had a song that began as a sample from an RIAA-copyrighted song but then broke into a song that I created. If they're using multiple sources, how can they prove that the song they have isn't the beginning of their song with a middle and end that belong to me?
That's not how Kazaa works. Kazaa will only download from multiple sources if the files each of the sources are offering are EXACTLY THE SAME (the MD5 hashes match) to make the download faster. If one person had the beginning of a song and another had the end of a song, Kazaa would see those as two completely different files, and wouldn't be able to combine them. When the RIAA downloads a file from multiple sources, they know (and are correct) that each source was hosting the entire file that they downloaded.
So what would happen if the RIAA discovered an IP address offering copyrighted files that they had already warned? How could they be certain it was the same person if the ISP never had to give the RIAA their name?

The article states that the FCC will "allow" broadcasters to use a broadcast flag, but it doesn't say anything about the receiving end. What's to prevent (aside from the DMCA) someone manufacturing a piece of recording equipment that throws the broadcast flag out the window (where it belongs) and allows you to make as many copies as you want, or is the FCC mandating that receivers obey the broadcast flag too?
I think that regardless of whether or not the phone company uses TCP/IP, the businesses who use FM radio as MOH (music on hold) still have to pay ASCAP fees, the same way a bar, store, or restaraunt has to if they play FM radio on the premises.

Or you could just modify the ID3 tag.
The RIAA can sue on behalf of anyone they want to provided that person had not issued a decree that the RIAA may not do so.
Then why, in the subpoenas, do the RIAA lawyers state "I affirm, under penalty of perjury, that I am authorized to act on behalf of $label"?
Actually, I think he's Unit 639622.
