There is no automatic method of cancelling your account. You have to call the tech support line at https://secure.logmein.com/con... for your locale. All you can do on the site is delete the computers on your account. As of this post, I cannot get through to the US & Canada line, just getting a busy signal. Apparently I'm not the only one following this route.
As has been mentioned in other posts there are plenty of free options out there capable of the same features that a free LogMeIn account was capable of doing.
I think you mean 3% of the Federal budget, not GDP. See http://www.richardb.us/nasa.html. In which case, for the years 1962-1972, NASA's budget was 2.86% of the Federal budget.
Maybe you should read more than "Rush Limbaugh and Haliburton's Guide to Global Warming".

That's a lot of freakin' new volcanos since 1750.
IANAA, however I would venture a guess that the atmosphere on Mars does provide some measure of protection against surface impacts by meteorites. However, the reason that so many impact craters are visible on the surface of Mars as compared to the Earth is a combination of two factors, time and erosion. On Mars there is no liquid water to erode the craters as there is on Earth, where visible impacts have been nearly completely erased by water and wind erosion over thousands or millions of years.
Yeah, and now my RCA minidisc player, Toshiba MemoryStick MP3 player, and Zenith Betamax VCR's are all worthless... oh wait, these products never existed because most of Sony's failed storage medium formats are proprietary. That's why they fail, not because of lack of technical merit.
Assuming the strip is approximately 50 feet wide and 3 feet thick, and you're looking to sell reasonable pieces of on average say 4 cubic inches, you're looking at about 972 Million pieces. At $50 a piece, you should be able to fund NASA for a couple years. Now how do you list 1 Billion chunks of concrete on eBay? Dutch auction?
Yeah, he's such a PR genius that now everyone has a Segway. The old folks next door. The kids on the way to little league. There's so many out there you can't look out the window without someone riding by on a Segway.
QTime... always ask u to upgrade to Pro version etc etc while all I want to do is watch the video.
To avoid this, next time you want to use Quicktime, set your system clock forward ten years or so before launching and click "Later" when it asks you to upgrade. Then it won't ask you again until 2014.
(Don't forget to set your clock back.)
Fortunately those of us who don't have the money to buy the latest and greatest PC, but still have our trusty X-Boxes from years ago will be able to play a great new FPS. Which is much less than I can say for games like Doom 3 which are barely playable on anything but the latest and greatest.
That's why I keep a seperate folder of links for sites that were Slashdotted, so I can go back and look at them later without forgetting.
Of course now I have to keep a seperate server online for the 3TB of storage that the links take up, but at least I get to see reviews of cool stuff like light up mousepads.
It depends on the law of the State you are in. Some states only require one party to consent to the recording, even if it's only the initiator of the conversation.
Not so fast. The issue isn't whether or not the company was monitoring the employee's chat session, rather that they were monitoring the recipient of the employee's chat session. In two party consent states, it wouldn't matter whether or not the employee signed any agreement. The third party would have to consent to the monitoring.
"Oh and 2) Washed-up pro athletes in long-term contracts? Crap. All major sports athletes are overpaid primadonnas. Paying them millions because they can throw a ball only fuels consumerism. "Did you watch the game on Sunday? Wow!" mindless sheep.."
First of all, even though some athletes may be overpaid, on average the amount of money coming in to the leagues far outweighs the amount being paid out to the athletes.
Who deserves the money more? The athletes who are doing the actual work that is bringing in the money, or the owners, who got rich from another source and are just raking in the money by throwing a few million at an existing cash cow.
Second, on the mindless sheep point, I guess you're right - I coulda been reading Slashdot instead of watching the game:)
This isn't exactly true. Altavista.com did not look exactly like altavista.digital.com. Altavista.com came online shortly after or about the same time as altavista.digital.com. This seems hardly enough time to cash in on a brand name that had not really been noticed yet.
Not to mention the fact that altavista.com actually hosted a legitimate organization of the same name, or rather Altavista Technologies who provided web media software. It seems to me the inclusion of the redirect to Altavista.digital.com's search from their main page was a service to users who mistakenly typed their URL rather than the correct Digital one, rather than an attempt to trick users into buying their product. I know I did this at least once and was thankful they even bothered to let me know I was in the wrong place.
This seems especially true due to the fact that their URL reflected their organization's name. You also have to take in to account that Alta Vista is not exactly a proprietary or even unusual name.
http://www.altavistaflowers.com/ or http://www.altavistachamber.org/ or http://www.altavistapress.com/ or any other number of companies or places whose name are Altavista or Alta Vista might have been first to register the URL in question, but Altavista Technologies beat them all to it.

But we got Playstation 3
Built-in Internet Explorer. Set it to autoload on start-up. Not even any moving parts to break.

According to Google (how appropriate), 30 terabytes * 365.25 * 10 = 107.006836 petabytes.
Yeah, and all I want to know about my cellular phone is, does it make telephone calls?

What's most amazing is the incredible 12 year old teenagers they found. Must be mutants or something.

Didn't we go through this once before? Anyone remember Borland/Inprise/Borland??
Sounds like a solid 2 hour investment, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

I don't know how you spell it, so I'm going to check out the link to that aluminium apartment story a few posts back.

They make any good beers?
