A 15 year old could get a state ID, and they could somehow implement it into each states system. Each state could have a database of State ID and Drivers Lisc numbers to add a level of identification online.
...we have an old VHF system. The city fire department, police department and sheriff office in our area are all on digital 800 Mhz systems. In order to upgrade the county fire departments, there would have to be enough money to upgrade handheld radios of over 250 firefighters at about $800 a piece. Not to mention to repeaters and such that some departments have. Don't forget the personally owned radios that the firefighters have in their vehicles, too. Of the five volunteer departments in the county, with about 50 certified firefighters (they test and train just like the paid firefighters), new radios could break any budget unless federal grant money comes in.
He didn't really even spam for profit. He just mail bombed a bunch of people from his old work saying that they will "die in seven days". No clue what his employer did to him. Kid should be stoned.
and as a volunteer firefighter, and not a teenager than time, it seems that old people seem to have just as many if not more bad wrecks than teenagers. With old people, it seems that they have problems paying attention to what they are doing (for example, leaving a car in reverse and running while stepping out of it to check the mail, or running into a guardrail at a deadend at 35mph). With guy teenagers, it's always some punk kid in a brand new car (old older civic with a body kit) that trys to take a corner too fast and apexes it and front ends someone.
...I find my mom in the passenger seat on her cellphone to be more distracting than anything. When I have fellow teens in the car, I tell them to shut the hell up. I didn't pay for the car, only the insurance, but my mom wrecked it when we first got it off the lot. I'm 19 now, got the car when I was 15 (didn't even have a permit) and have kept it in mint condition. Some think that it's brand new, and are appauled to learn that it is almost half a decade old:D I take pride in the things that are given to me or earned by myself.
What kid won't either unplug the unit, or make up a GPS jammer to keep it from doing its job? These people aren't even trying to circumvent the minds of the younguns. It needs to be mounted under the hood hooked up to the battery. On top of that, the hood needs a key-locking mecanism by the pull lever on the driver side so that the teen can't circumvent this technology.
*gets stormed by MPAA troops and mickey mouse police.* I'm in a courtroom, and before me I see Judge Mickey Mouse and Prosecuter Donald Duck. Donald approaches me and asks of me, "Where is your EFF now?"
and lagging software development This means that Sony is pissed off because Windows/Mac OS X and the PC Industry aren't picking up Trusted Computing by storm.
The developers would need to know about development tools for the iPhone, so there is actually a possibility of it being previewed, or even released there. How much sense would it be to release a programmable phone, and then six months later mention it to all of the developers?
..there is no way you are from Europe. In the EU, mainly UK, fag means cigarette, and is not used as a derogatory term (afaik). You say that the American date system is faggy, and then go on to say that the European one is better. You must be an American-hateing American. Traitor.
I would have wanted to be processed through the court system. I would have cooperated and let him arrest me. Would have been made for a grand countersuit once your innocence is established. "Defamation of Character" "Slander" Any decent two cent lawyer would have you banking after that.
...the public will have this sort of response if more and more things like this are reported the way they are. They will think numberedlinks is an extension that will come in through firefox.
...This Cartoon. Seems like Fire/EMS are the only fields in America where pride is still a part of the job. How is this machine supposed to cut holes in roofs, pull people out of homes, pull people out of cars without breaking their necks, and ventilate a house? Not a firefighter if it can't do all that and more:P
They are. This was reported elsewhere, and the story was about what you are bringing exactly. It seems this story in particular was tailored for the gamer crowd and only mentions the game consoles.

I like the music, what kind is it? Anyone know what genre it would be classified as or what the specific author/title is?
....we need an open source equivalent to the GeekSquad MRI :)

I think we're safe here. I for one, have a girlfriend.

Yeah, sorry about that. So, since you're on slashdot does that mean you don't have a boyfriend?

hillarious! Hey, what site is this?
It's Nathan Lineback. You had me questioning my sanity for a moment there.

What is that program with the blue liquidy stuff that seems to move whenever he moves the window. Looks like oodles of fun.
