Why do people limit the number of members in a community anyhow? I'm sure there's 100 new people more willing to download/upload than within members 1 - 200. Time goes by, some people go away and all, and you're left with dead members just taking up space. Just my two cents.
at the same time, geologic action caused global sea levels to drop, Ward explained in a telephone interview.
What geologic action can cause global sea levels to change dramatically? I didn't know any could, I thought it had more to do with the balance between ice ages and warm ages.
I think something big needs to happen - massive hole in IE exposed or something - to get large companies to bother with the conversion on their intranets.
So... pretty much the daily norm continued for the forseeable future? MSFT will be happy to comply.
Pick them up and toss one by one? You're so inefficent! See what you do is delete the path leading out the park. Wait a while, thousands of people stand by the gates not being able to get out... then you lower the land under the remaining path until it's water. Then delete the path as the people still stand on it:D
Well if you look at it that way, then it's kinda like 'protection money' for Microsoft's site to be able to continue to operate. Microsoft doesn't patch a hole, the hole cripples Microsoft's site. Microsoft provides support to pirates, Microsoft's site stays up.
So, is this just using a secure connection on our internet, or did they go ahead and string up an all new internet for no one but theirselves to be on? I don't really see the point of the latter - why not dump the money into vastly improving the current internet and stomping out spammers and things that make the place bad?
Still wish we were allowed to use the bt network here. Times like these made me wish I went to a tech school. At least my chances of being understood might rise to 1% from 0.
Most people I know who have the time, know-how, and the means (including myself by the end of the semester) set up a box on a broadband line back home and connect to that.
Same thing has been going on here with those who know enough to do such things... probably work on it over spring break.
The school I go to has already ended the party, limiting the crap out of BT connections, so my speeds dropped from 500-600k/sec to 3-4k/sec for each torrent. What's the speed something has to drop to so that driving to where the server is, burning a cd, and driving home is faster than the download itself?
Any other schools out there get a similar clampdown?
I'd personally like to thank Nissan for coming up with yet another way to fck up the natural processes on this planet. Hate to infringe upon Nissan's bottom line but hail, like all weather, happens for a reason.
Maybe next Cadillac will come out with a devise that will make sure within a one mile radius the sky is always clear at night, so people can enjoy their moonroofs.
Precip. patterns? Things that need water to live? Bah!
Hey there. I agree wholeheartedly with what you said, and I added a little to it in a post on the matter on my board. You can take a look at the specific thread.

...at least Digg is still up and running. My article on it melted my server down. After it got dugg, of course.

Ahh, well thank you for that, I had no idea plate tectonics could have such an effect.

So does this mean they'll be fining the RIAA & MPAA, or is that acceptable spyware?

Considering the teams playing, it might be more of a mercy killing.
I agree. I also wonder if this could cause any charges to be filed for acessing personal information.
I was thinking more along the lines of Resistance is futile.

So as long as everything goes exactly as planned, we're guarenteed to be probably safe!
Seriously though, why do we need to trigger a new arms race?

Company profits vs. general good of the internet. I really wonder which one they'll choose.
(note that I left out writing better software)

Thanks for the tip! While not how it was back at the start of the year, at least things are humming along at 20 - 60k/sec now.

Thanks again for having the guts to speak out.
So... what are the chances of DRM following us to our (future) cars after it's rolled out? More specifically, the playing of mp3 cds.
Bam! We get hit tomorrow...
Sorry, I'm going to have to say Opera rules everyone.
