Sorry, I forgot that printers always printed out things perfectly, without any problems. When was the last time you've seen an impact or thermal printer fail after only 500 pages? There's no requirement to use inkjet printers that run out of ink after 5 pages or print on sheets that jam.
Also you can make a ballot laid out or badly worded on a computer screen, just as well as you can on a piece of paper. But it isn't constrained by having to fit in a 1" square in 10pt font that causes the bad summary. Formating, font size, and page count are effectively free on a computer screen, not so much on a traditional ballot.
If you have so much stuff on the ballot that you can't put it all on a single piece of paper, then get bigger paper, or use more than 1 sheet. Also, why even elect officials if there is so much stuff on the ballot. Might as well just forgo paying them, and get the public to vote on every single issue. This is why you elect representatives. To represent you. So you don't have to vote on every piddly little thing. I see you've never voted and don't understand that electronic voting isn't about making the counting process faster, but is about increasing usability and reducing errors and problems caused by traditional paper ballots that make the counting process inaccurate or difficult.
If humans are re-verifying everything, then why have the machine at all? No hanging chads? No ambiguously filled in bubbles? No confusingly laid out ballot? No badly worded ballot issue summary due to space constraints? No lack of full ballot issue text?
Because it doesn't matter. Voters keep the vote taking machines honest by reading their own ballot, vote counters keeping track of 1-2 items on the ballots keep the tally machine honest.
Yes you're being factitious, but there was a real measurable difference in "catching one spammer"; Our MTA level reject rates were cut in half the day this guy and his accomplices were arrested and has yet to recover back to the prior rates.
However since the unwashed masses of Windows users won't ever patch their systems, will always open any attachment sent to them, will always install any stupid piece of software to watch the latest sex tape, we'll be stuck with botnets so large as to make SkyNet tremble.
AFAIK only the installer and Live require it, for non-technical lock-in/forced upgrade reasons only, and can be modified, the game itself does not. Same for Shadowrun.
Last motherboard that didn't have a boot from IDE CD option, must have been in the Pentiun I class. I doubt any machine of that class is still running Windows at this point in time. These days, one finds P-IV class machines in the dumpster.... Anyone still running a P-I class machine with Win95/Win98 is not going to change over to Debian. They have already proven to be resistant to change.
Just recently (last few months) I did an install on a LGA775 mini-ATX MB from Intel (I forget what model). It had one PATA interface and 4 SATA ports. You could put any sort of PATA device on the PATA interface, however the BIOS did NOT support booting from a CD-ROM attached to the PATA interface. I had to use a USB->PATA adapter to boot off the installation CD. The BIOS simply didn't have ATAPI over PATA support, it'd work over USB and SATA tho. This isn't really all that unexpected as PATA is slowly disappearing from new motherboards altogether and all have support for USB storage devices and boot from them as well as SATA.
But only because of all the other heavy cars out there. So really, heavy cars are more hazardous... to other drivers:P
Anyhow a heavy vehicle isn't necessarily safer for being heavy, it depends more on construction.
Maybe a pizza place where you make your own pie? They give you the dough, the sauce, the cheese...you pound it, slap it, you flip it up into the air...you put your toppings on and you slide it into the oven!
At 5c per gallon they're going to lose money on the $1.69 cup they sold the consumer? That's a lot of refills, perhaps they should charge for restroom access.
Not only that, it assumes that any DRM scheme could actually work. The "consumer" is always in possession of the protected content and the keys to unlock it.
Windows does have a fairly intricate permission system, and you can setup non-administrative users just like you can in Linux.
On thing I tried doing with the "fairly intricate permission system" is deny a user from running an application by placing the user in one group and only that group and not giving directory or file access permission for that group along with removing the psuedo group of everyone (IOW the directory and files had only specific permissions granted to a different user). Of course guess what, user could still run the application. Kinda useless to have a "fairly intricate permission system" when the OS doesn't even obey its own ACL's on directories/files.
The way I understand it won't be licensed if don't include the copyright signal.
Take home movies for instance; no camcorder company is going to pay the company creating VEIL licensing fees to encode video captured from the lens in this manner.
Only problem with that is they will be required by the DTCSA to implement VEIL. A consumer camcorder is the very essence of the analog hole, recording the "protected" media by pointing a camcorder at a (high quality, high resolution) TV.
Think about it - the USA does have a problem with Mexicans entering the country illegally, but how much does it do to prevent US-Americans from illegally entering Mexico?
To do what, spend money being a tourist? Mexicans aren't entering USA daily in the morning and returning at night to go to Disneyland over and over again. Perhaps you're claiming there are strippers living in San Diego that cross the border every day to perform the donkey show in Tijuana?

Does it have 33% more bugs than v1.5?
Because then all the ads on their website don't generate extra revenue, and the number of page hits goes down.
Good thing FasterFox in any of it modes doesn't enable pre-fetch unless you manually check that box.

The kind that spammers use.

You just need to register it in the Cook Islands.
So I take it you'll be wearing a full body leather gimp suit and goggles to the next rally?

Well you see, that was storage for all his porn he's "hiding" from his mother upstairs.

Video (music videos) most certainly did kill the radio star. There hasn't been a new non-photogenic singer with a hit album in decades.

As far as I know Newegg has carried Areca cards for at least a year, didn't know Newegg was hard to find.
They probably actually mean a missing pair of parenthesis, to force the evaluation order of some statement to be a certain way.
No they'd sit on it; there's no money in curing diseases, but a whole ton of money to be made in managing a disease.
