The bluetooth headset is a godsend. Not having a wire running from your ear down to your hand makes it much more convientant, and I don't keep pulling the earbud out of my ear every time I turn my head.
One wonders if using writing as a form of punishment could be giving kids the impression that writing is an unpleasant task, which would diminish their desire to spend effort on any future writing tasks.
It would seem this school's definition of "hacking" is "Doing anything that isn't on the lesson plan / assignment for the day".
If anything a 'disrupting class' argument could be made by sending that message; if everyone in class started playing with that it would get very hard to get work done.
LaTeX is not only for math textbooks, it has macros for quite a few structures you'd want in a book; chapters, headings, Title page, etc. \documentstyle{book} gets you quite far. It also doesn't choke at all on large documents and lets you get on with writing the book instead of spending a lot of time getting Word to be consistent with tabs and whatnot. The output looks very professional, and can be easily converted into PDF.
Oddly, the linked Trafford page uses Javascript to disable right-clicking. I can't imagine why they bother with that.
Sure; you could consider that analogy if MS already had a copy/defination of the lost object in hand and merely had to copy it to your account for you to access it.
The money that doesn't get spent gets put into some sort of financial instrument, which then is put back into the economy in the form of money that can be used as capital. It certainly doesn't just 'dissapear' unless the owner keeps it all in larg bills under their mattress.
This is the downside of Just In Time inventory -- the system has little resiliancy to burps in the supply chain. Every step should have enough buffer to handle problems (ie bad weather, computer problems, disasters, etc).
type-notifications are handy since they assist in the '20 second attention span' problem. It may take me more than 20 seconds to type my reply, but that way the other person knows something is coming and shouldn't divert their attention elsewhere.

Wasn't this a feature of a Neal Stephenson book?

This reminds me of a line from 5th Element:
"Korben Dallas MultiPass!"
Ahhhh, TA... one of the best RTS's ever. It still rivals most of then in playability.
At my school the policy was that reusing one's old papers was not allowed.
There has to be a reasonable expectation of that or else noone is going to bother with higher education.

Parking that thing would be a pain; I'd recommend a Harrier Jumpjet instead.
What about the concept of poisoning wells or salting the land?
You don't need to use NAT to set your firewall to deny access to your publicly-addressable fridge.

Don't trust someone else to keep that data; either save the 'full' pdf (with all the schedules and such) or print it out. Or both.

Presumably the ISP is servicing multiple customers and doesn't want to set up a configuration that would impact everyone else.
Somehow I doubt that 'indemnification' gives the customers the legal agency to bind IBM to a given settlement.
Rising stock price does not necessairily mean current profits, just that (in theory) the Market believes there will be profits in the future.
Disabling PAM would only be a problem if you had only allowed PAM-specific authentication methods.
Joining mailling lists with the intention of getting spam seems counter-productive, in that case you do seem to be legitimately requesting the data.
I believe the problem is incomplete documentation on NTFS internals making it rather difficult to build a 'safe' r/w driver.
Please post the additional information, this sounds interesting.
