My first thought back when watching the originalepisode was pretty simple: Hold something (preferably colored glass) infront of your mirror. Your bright dot will be the colored one. Bonus points for a unique stained glass design you can use so multiple people can aim at once, but once you start coloring them you can fix your aim and move on to the next guy within 30seconds.
Instead of writing it down, just stick a number at the end and increase it every time you have to change. Not even close to secure, but overzealous password policies lead to insecure practices (like writing it down, having a password reset be a normal practice, etc)
Generally speaking, all generalizations arnt 100% accurate. Using them as such is bad, but they make great references for conversational purposes. Everyone is an individual in every way, but with enough people you start noticing trends, and then find commonality to use as a base.
Slashdot is the perfect example of why this is bad. Or everything2. Or wikipedia.
Large masses with moderation powers leads to centerist bullshit that tries to please everyone rather than being factually accurate. You post what everyone can easily agree with (We need to protect our children, microsoft is bad, firefly is good, apple and google are gods who can do no evil, etc) and you get modded up. You post something accurate that pisses people off, and you get modded down.
Personally I prefer my music player to take up zero persistant screen space. Ever since Winamp3 I've just had it set to use global hotkeys to control it, and kept the window minimized. I now use foobar2000 with the same setup(and hotkeys).
That way if someone is talking to me I can hit a key and pause my music without having to hunt for the window then hunt for a small button on it. Or if you're inside a game you can still jump songs without having to switch out. Definately worth trying if you've never done it before
Why not put them in the bottom of your boots? Odds are you wont get shot through there (unless you're prone and shot from behind, which shouldn't happen). Only risk is land mines, and if you step on one of those.. you're already not going to do too well.
First and most important: Who mandates it? Nobody has authority over the interwebbernet. That said, what defines adult content?
What about a national geographic-style site that would include topless women from some tribe in africa?
What about a site selling underwear? For example, you can see bush on this amazon ad: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000 7XLONC/ref=pd_sbs_a_4/102-1256598-6028138?_encodin g=UTF8&v=glance
What about webcam sites where people are free to be as nude or not-nude as they like?
What about informative sites teaching kids about their own body? (clitical, jackinworld, etc)
What about non comercial personal pages that include nudes (Be they self nudes, or "my wild vacation pictures", or whatever).
The gray area is huge. But again, more importantly, who can mandate such a requirement? Why would someone want to host their site in a banned by many.xxx tld when they can get more profit from a.com? Because of potential us law you propose? Only people that care about silly US laws are silly US citizens.
The better proposal is a.kids tld (or better yet, an entire arin assignment or VPN you could limit your kids inside), which anybody could set up and be responsible for. If you could get a few big isps behind it, you'd have a large enough base that the big names (Disney, Nick, etc) would want access to host their sites inside your system, and the only stuff inside would be safe.
Even if you could block a.xxx, you'll never block the millions of nude pictures already out there lurking in peoples personal sites, forgotten dir indexes, and whatever else.
But atleast now when you're watching underaged girls strip on webcam you have plausable deniability. Yahoo said you had to be 18 to join the chats, how were you supposed to know?
As an asside, thats fine for all the houndreds of thousands of gamers that stick to HL1, which only supports eax2(and gives a HUGE advantage for using it, about twice the hearing distance on average)
Most of us run firefox with enough anti-bad plugins that we don't even notice. Not trying to sound elitist, but when the submitter, admin, and everyone commenting doesnt run an exploitable platform, how are they supposed to know what its trying to do? Most of those things are subvert enough that with the right useragent they won't even send you the install code.
Er, already did sans the DVD burner part, and that wouldn't really add much to the cost. They could even sell it as an expansion to the 8000HD STBs that have the expandability (FireWire/SATA ports on the box, not to mention a spare set of a/v connections to hook a vcr up to so you can use the "Send to VCR" feature without having to watch it while it records)
Already have. If, say, 20%[1] of all customers stopped buying for a month, RIAA declares a 20% rise in piracy and a need for more legal power to protect their profits.
Bring the wireless with you. It wouldnt be the most efficient (or cheap), but if you had the right cellphone/pda/laptop/external aentenna/wireless router combo sitting in your car, you'd be able to take unlimited[1] pictures and have them stored remotely before anyone can destroy your setup.
[1] Atleast, a lot more than you could get out of a conventional rig. You don't want to slap in a new roll of film or another memory card in the middle of something like this. Hopefully this will be hackable enough that people can create stuff to upload only locally, so that all you would need would be a wireless router in your car and a network storage device.
At home you can watch whatever you want, rather than watching the latest crapfests in theaters. What would you rather watch, Trainspotter 2, or Empire Strikes Back?

I like hardware Just Working(tm) more often than on linux (I havn't used a mac and can't compare) eg, plug a mouse in, have it move your cursor a second later. I like having full surround sound audio in any app I use, as many apps as I want to use at once (Rather than messing with seperate sound devices, esd which breaks mosts games, etc), and I like the software available (Flashfxp, vegas video, foobar2000, google desktop search, all the games I play) in addition to all the standard software I'd use on any platform (MPlayer, vim, firefox,etc)
But how do you deal with modules? As thats written, all that you can't do is change the part of the code that sends its own source, but all you'd have to do is add in your own module loader and keep your private code seperate. The source-sender knows not of your new code, and thus most likely won't be able to release it. The only ways around this would get tricky as they could just as easily leak passwords/other sensitive info.
Kind of offtopic, but is there any easy way to tell how much your machines pulling? I *do* have two video cards, a couple of harddrives, even had a tuner card in at one point.

I'd also like to point out that there are plenty of bugs on those PS2 games, and you'll NEVER have them fixed.
Eh, you'd hope so, but no.
:(
Recipe for Quake4:
1 Part doom3
2 Parts shiny graphics
One regexp of s/demons/Strogg/;
Mix, Hope for the best.
Its just quake2 story on a doom3 engine, done by ravensoft so you can't even expect a good multiplayer
Oh well, back to quakeworld.

So wait until the myspace users turn 18 and get their first bank account and you'll have all the answers.

You(or your evil twin) should copy all of that info and release it over p2p, just for the irony.

Thats internet without the web, not web without internet as the grand parent asked.
Its just terminology. I assure you 9 out of 9.01 people don't really care if they call it The Internet, The Web, or "My AOL".
Learn to pick your battles, be glad the information superhighway died down.

Step 1) Copy once
Step 2) Remove protection from your new copy
Step 3) No more DRM.
