I thought Philips was getting ready to release those. In fact, I think I remember reading (on here in fact) that some existing drives would just need a firmware upgrade to write double layered discs.
Not that I disagree with your entire statement, but a dynamic entry is more meant to scare the hell out of the occupants of the suspected house/building, and move fast enough to not give them time to think, than to kill anyone. In fact, killing someone during a raid is a huge problem. Not only do they now have one less person to garner information from, but they have to deal with the bad press.
If a cop kills someone they are instantly suspended and an investigation is started (probably by internal affairs) however this part needs to really be open to public review. I mean, the cop just murdered someone and possibly the situation didn't warrant it and this will all be hidden from public view.
What? When did the bible ever contain a dictionary? To "witness", according to the dictionary, definition #4, means "An attestation to a fact, statement, or event; testimony.". There aren't any forms of lying that involve you not witnessing something.
Those things piss me off too. However, juggling all those things at once is not a permanent condition (at least for the duration of the car trip like being drunk is).
I really don't like laws period, but it seems some people cannot handle knowing when they are ok to drive. I am good at knowing when I am ok to drive, simply based on my driving record while intoxicated (yet still below DUI levels, I think), but I'd be willing to never drink and drive again if it would stop everyone from doing it too.
Only ticketing dengerous driving has the unfortunate effect of allowing drunk people to actually drive legally until they hit someone. Having a.08 (sorry I typoed on the 0.9 before) BAC is a testable situation. "Dangerous driving" is more vague, and people can weasel their way out of it.
I hate the zealot rush. I've been getting back into Starcraft because it's the only game my buddy and I can play due to his school's retarded NAT firewall. The million man march or the battle cruiser domination fleet is the only proper response;)
I, for one, would hack the damn tube out of my car. I think the better solution is to actually fuck up people who DUI. Like permanent license revocations. Repeat offenders spend 5 years in a damn sweat shop. You can always have a designated driver. Or save the money for your last two shots for a cab. Obviously there are some ups and downs to this (driving at.9, for example) but there's a point at which to be firm, and this is one of them. Maybe if people see their buddies never able to drive again they won't dick around any more.
I would imagine if the screwdriver could also have an enlarged square/hex head around it that mates to a matching male head around the screw, that would stop the torque from twisting you around.
Don't forget Mitsubishi, who used American POW's during WWII for slave labor in their iron mines. I know there was another company to do that too, I think it starts with an 'N', but since I'm not sure of the name, I'll leave it at that.
No one needs the source to do this stuff, do they?
Absolutely not. You really just have to search the disassembly (or even run a debugger on the WNDPROC containing the validation window procedure, using tools like Spy++ and SoftICE) for the routine that calls/jumps to the routine that detects a "failure". Put NOP's (No Operation) in the comparison instruction and possibly the jmp/call and you're set. You can also change the target of the "failure" jmp/call to the address of the "success" routine and it'll work too.
Get off your high horse asshole. You are increasing boost pressure by upping the wastegate relief pressure, thereby slowing down the exhaust flow, thereby lowering your initial torque. You have to make up for it by either launching and remaining at a higher RPM or increasing the exhaust area.
Toyota Supra, perfect example. Spends most of its time in shitty torque land. That's why even with 800 RWHP they run 12's. Because they have a peaky torque band. Get off your dyno queen masturbation HP numbers and actually put it to the test on a track. A flat torque curve will always win, unless there is such a disparity in numbers that the race is unfair anyhow.
And where the fuck do you get off telling me I have no idea what I'm talking about? Because you think you're smart? Please, shut the fuck up. I'm tired of snide little remarks from anonymous faggots on this site whose sole purpose in life should be wiping the shit off my ass because they have no better reason for being alive than to act like little cocksuckers.

You're simply boosting the wastegate pressure relief. Good luck with that, because you are probably killing your torque band.

Yes, that's what he said. You are reprogramming the wastegate and should probably get high octane gas at that point. If you aren't detonating on 87 octane, I'm very surprised.
If the law is retarded, like this one, then there is reason to get pissed. As has been mentioned, Canada levies a fee on all recordable media being sold, for the specific purpose of recompensating the recording industry for pirated materials. So this means they pay a fine then can't copy anyway. That is stealing, plain and simple.
I meant the cost passed on to the end user. Since you have to pay for closed source development in every instance, making perfect software adds up quickly. In an open environment, people donate their free time to make a good application. It's money all the same (time = money), but it's also paid in pride and a job well done.
Ada forces you to handle all exceptions, sort of like Java, but much more insane. It's perfect for a mission critical app, because no run-time situation is unaccounted for. I wasn't saying it was a silver bullet either, just that it is a very professional and specialized system, running on usually very professional and specialized equipment, where errors need to be minimal, or at least recovered from gracefully.
I like open source too, I sort of don't understand why you thought I didn't (maybe this is a tangent, I don't know). I think redhat is more guaranteeing their professional server software is stable enough for production use, which is why it costs more. Plus having someone on the phone you can call, that's always a benefit to some companies.
I really don't see how your gripe is relevant. It takes manpower to create any code, and when you start getting around millions of lines, it probably doesn't even matter at that point. I doubt the F22 code has this in it:
a
:=
1
+
2
;
simply to inflate the LOC count. I will bet that over a million lines about the same amount of work is accomplished using Ada as opposed to using C.
And my example between OS's and the flight control system of an airplane holds, because both are created from scratch and I will guarantee both are very modular.
Closed source will never be like that simply because the sheer price of developing millions of lines of code to near perfect standards is astounding, and no one will want to pay for the end result. Look at how much the F22 Raptor development costs. How many millions of lines of code are there? It's less than Windows and Linux both, it's written in a near crashproof language (Ada) and yet it still needs to reboot. It still fails, yet it costs phenominal amounts of money to even develop it to that point.
I'm still looking for the "Gayniggers From Outer Space " movie you reference in your crap floods on bit torrent. Get your asses in gear! I want to see it!
You would have to seriously be within a few inches to sniff it. The speedpass gadget is totally unpowered, it uses a tiny antenna to act as an inductive power source for an insanely weak transmitter.
Depends on your goals. The only 2 highschool classes I took that were worth a damn were CompSci AP and Digital Electronics. Everything else was retarded.
Take me for example, I had more interest in fractal geometry, math and assembley programming than I did any of the rest of my subjects during highschool. It's no wonder why I was in AP CompSci, because I could do the homework in class, finish it in a day or two and have the rest of the week to screw around. Now I have more interest in histroy, religon and cars, while I should be taking collegiate courses. Oh well. Next year I may have more interest in medicine, who knows, the sky is the limit.
It's sort of blowing a lot of people off to call it laziness or closed mindedness. Regular classes WERE cake for me, but I never did homework because I felt school had already wasted 7.5 hours per day of my life (and usually more via detention), and deserved no more. They would never have admitted me into any AP courses but Comp Sci because of that. I almost always devastated tests, and usually set the curve in science and math, but I didn't care enough to do the, IMO, "extra" work they wanted. Homework usually being worth a good 30% of my grade, I ended up with a 1.67GPA. Almost perfect test and final scores, usually 0% on homework. English was always the worst, because all the papers usually drove the homework grade up to about 50% of the total, so I usually had to actually write a paper or two then rely on the final. On more than one occasion I was sitting at 59% going into the final and my English teacher would be giving me all these "You better do well on this" speeches, when it would have sufficed to get a 60% on the final.
It's like that quote from Office Space "It'll only motivate someone enough to not get fired." Well, replace "get fired" with "fail" and that's me in a nutshell.
Besides, a student who does bad during K-12 years doesn't suddendly become a model student in college without a significant lifestyle change.
Not necessarily. K-12 is a joke, and the more intelligent kids realize this. Most of the "underachievers" you would see getting straight D's just to slide on by are very smart, they just don't do anything. They have better things to do than to waste their time on homework. Once they hit college (if they're even admitted), they realize that classes in college are much less silly, and not so much of a waste of time.
Damn synchronocity... I just saw that movie (Brazil) yesterday. I must say, I have to watch it again, I was too tired to fully appreciate how insanely complex it is.

You're reading too literally into the word attestation. Not only that but you seem to have ignored this definition:
1 To affirm to be correct, true, or genuine.
This is probably the wierdest argument I've had since the guy who got all huffy about what a Knot is...

See, but what's funny is that you may have just lied right there. Unless you know who the parent poster is, he/she may do business with you every day.
"To bear false witness" is a fancy way of saying "to lie."
