Some places have very poor Internet connection, if not non-existent. And, if he needs to store them in the laptop, means that a 4Gb SD won't do it. I'd go for the DVD-burning solution then, better yet, a small external HD would do it.
How many lawyer jobs did it create? What about engineers working on DRM and other antipiracy methods? And the guys that make the trailers that say copying movies is stealing, etc, etc. Where would they all be without pirates?
Apparently the fate of our species now depends upon older guys hooking up with younger woman.
There's an old proverb (can't remember where I've heard it) which said something like: "Your woman's ideal age should be half of your age + 7"
So if f = x/2 + 7
f(14) = 14
f(16) = 15
f(30) = 22
f(40) = 27
f(60) = 37
Of course you would have to change your partner every year:)
Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and... Obligatory Spinal Tap quote:
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten? Nigel Tufnel: Exactly. Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder? Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where? Marty DiBergi: I don't know. Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do? Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven. Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder. Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder? Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.
The last track, past the minute 13, has a hidden message. It translates: "This is Ramón speaking, if you hear this please call amnesty international. I've been enslaved in a chinese CD-making factory. Somebody please help me!!"
Will Starcraft 2 have DRM or any kind of home calling "feature"? If yes, do you honestly believe that it is going to solve the piracy problem beside just annoying legitimate users?
1 - Didn't your wife told you not to post?!? Get back to work bitch! Just kidding. C'mon man, talk to her!
2 - Why don't you ask her directly instead of trying to caught her in the act? You know, some relationships actually benefit from being honest to each other... some even are based on that!
3 - You should have thought about that BEFORE having kids! Put your sh1t toghether, act like the father you are supposed to be and spend time with your kids. And you better enjoy it.
You are a PC doctor, when it feels ill, you have to trace the symtoms and find a cure. You must be procative to avoid it get sick again. And it's not just 1 computer, you are responsible for the health of many computers that allows rockets into space.
As usual, our firends at DARPA are always one step ahead. Use these to replace of the old CAPTCHAs.
1 - Develop a mathematical theory to build a functional model of the brain that is mathematically consistent and predictive rather than merely biologically inspired.
2 - Develop the high-dimensional mathematics needed to accurately model and predict behavior in large-scale distributed networks that evolve over time occurring in communication, biology, and the social sciences.
3 - Address Mumford's call for new mathematics for the 21st century. Develop methods that capture persistence in stochastic environments....
Can we please stick to the topic? You've probably included the human rights policies sentence to avoid bashing by your peers, so I'm really talking to everyone here. I don't see anybody add a "Despite Guantanamo..." for every NASA article that appears, why is that we have to bring that up EVERY time we talk about something happening in China?
We all know what is wrong, there's no need to reinforce the "China is bad on human rights" meme. If you really want to help solve the human rights problem, stop buying iPods, Nike shoes, Macs, and everything that is made in China. Period.
Now back to China's IPv4 space, I think you are right, specially for the hiper-centralized administration.
I couldn't agree more with that. I'm not a US citizen. I've used to go to the west coast quite often, almost on every vacation, prior to 9/11. My last flight was on December from that year I think. I got that same message right away just by looking at the marines holding the M16 with the their index extended right by the trigger, beign all alert, in the middle of the airport full of people. I remember I thought those guys were mad, they had set their minds to look for an enemy and a 10 year old kid running with a plastic gun could trigger the same split-second response the very Osama would, and it would have been a bloody mess. I chose not to go back since then.
Nowadays, I'm vacationing in Spain, where the food is way much better BTW. I miss some things from USA off-course but I won't risk beign treated like sh1t while I'm on vacation.

Put two white leds in the rear bumper and a wiimote between the headlights of each car.
Try these:
Workit, better, faster, stronger.

Damn I misstyped it! Well, I guess it kind of works well then. And yes I was drunk.
90 and 46, and I'm currently drunk. Didn't take the time though

Is it really worth it? Only you, have the answers, little grasshoper. Decide you must.
Imagine a big, pissed-off herd taking Bombay or any other city in India. Who would dare to stop them?

By symtoms I mean symptoms. My fingers are not in synch with my head.
You are a PC doctor, when it feels ill, you have to trace the symtoms and find a cure. You must be procative to avoid it get sick again.
And it's not just 1 computer, you are responsible for the health of many computers that allows rockets into space.

The license did not have a photo. "We're not certain that it belongs to Steve Fossett, but it certainly has his name on the ID,"...
Oh yeah we all have "Steve Fosset" written in our pilot licenses, specially the ones that like to go hiking.
Why don't these self-proclaimed journalists don't do some research instead of coping and pasting the Reuters cable?
Do all pilot licenses have a photo?
Did his license had a photo?
Is it in fact a pilot license or they are not sure?
That knowledge will be used against us... That's why I'm not telling them the answers...Please don't insist.
OMFG! I so need to strap a cat to one of those!
Yves Rossy has a long record of arerial stunts, he is definitely a pro. And he and his team have put a lot of thinking into this project.
If you think this is a stupid idea or that he'll end up in the Darwin awards hall of fame, think twice:

This priest with too much faith but no brains had the brilliant idea of "flying" in a paragliding harness strapped to a lot of party balloons. The article has a nice picture.
...I'm no fan of China's human rights policies...
