I'm not saying that all Americans are uptight. However there is a certain skewed view of sexuality versus violence in America. GTA SA gets a M rating for shooting police officers but some think it should be rated OA because of sex? How can sex be more offensive than violence?
hear people touting hybrid cars and have tried many times to explain that the energy in a gallon of gasoline is more efficiently used to drive the wheels than charge batteries and that it's impossible for regenerative braking to reclaim all the energy required to get the vehicle up to the speed you deccelerated from. You'd think I was talking to a wall sometimes;-)
Are you saying that hybrid cars are no more efficient than conventional internal combustion powered cars? If so, then why is the fuel comsumption so much less for hybrid cars?
The quality of the food is just as important. There was a series latey that involved Jamie Oliver trying to have schools prepare non-processed foods. There was a pilot project. After the kids adjusted and began eating the 'real' food grades and behaviour improved significantly.

I believe that teachers work longer than normal hours. Also, the burn out level is quite high. Thus the months off are required.
I believe it was the first DMG by EGG who wrote that all rules were optional. Too many rules and books get in the way of the true goal of RPGs: telling a good story.
We need both AMD and Intel in order for innovation and lower prices to remain. If AMD destroys Intel we'll just trade one alleged monopoly for another.
Please, AMD do not use this in some SCO-like attempt to pump your stock price. Instead, advertise your products. Let the courts decide whether or not Intel has had an unfair advantage. Mud slinging just makes you look like you are hiding something.
Indeed. If the PIN and passwords were really aquired then there is something flawed in the system. Those types of things should be irreversible and stored as hashes.
What you say is true. However, I can download the latest Linux kernel with all its patches and installed it with only one reboot and no addtional vulnerable Internet time.
Windows comes with an older kernel that requires mutliple reboots and Internet downloads while still in a vulnerable state. While it true that I could probaly download all the patches prior it is still far more tedious than a single trip to ftp.kernel.org.
The lack of rigid structure and thowing a page together are the very things make PHP a potentially dangerous language. When in the right hands PHP is a good tool. However, it does allow for sloppy work.
I don't understand why managing email should be linked with a calendar. I beleive they are two separate functions. If you try to do both at the same time you loose productivity. Try using mutt versus any other MUA. I've found nothing faster for managing large amounts of email. Now if only I could find a calendar system that is just as efficient.
How does one go about managing LAN cables? Specifically those needed for demo machines and laptops? We used the Deskspool by Teleadapt but, they are not very rebust. We've had to replace all 16. Wireless is not always the ideal solution either.
When speaking to clients I've begun referring to backups as 'computer insurance'. When you compare backups as insurance and draw parallels to home or car insurance people tend to have a better understanding.
I deployed a test Reiser4 server at work. The data is stable and I have not lost anything. However, the Reiser4 partition is also an NFS share. This share regulary stops working. Only a reboot of the system returns the NFS server to a working state.
Most people do not need a V8. Indeed, such engines should only be permitted to people that have just cause.
Personally, I would not rely on GM for your future fuel efficient car. Toyota and Honda already have production hybrid cars that are selling out. Ford is so desparate to get into the hybrid game that they are licensing Toyota's hybrid technology for one of their trucks.
Most people complain about the price of gasoline. I welcome it. Only when we pay the true cost (not just drill and refine but, clean up aswell) will people and industry seriously consider conservation and alternatives. Triple the price of gas and you'll see the gas guzzling SUVs fade from popularity.

From a configuration point of view I do not think Microsoft's UI is very usable. Clicking through a large number of small windows that show a portion of my configuration options is inefficient. Once I'm on screen three I can hardly recall what was on screen one. Now, I have to go back and start over.
Mouse jockeys call the text configuration files of Unix 'primative'. I call them simple. The simple solution is often the best one. With single text file I can see all the options at once. Better yet, I can add my own documentation to help me remember why the settings are what they are. Finally, I can backup them for recovery or transfer them to another system. That is usable.
Coporate leadership would be biased by greed. Standards are important but, the chaotic state things are in now breads innovation. Life couldn't evolve without genetic variation. Unix has evloved in giant leaps due to its competing formats.
I too, am skeptical. Especially when I see Rambus mentioned. I keep looking around expecting to see a school of their lawyers circling. Biding their time until before a patent law suit frenzy.

Cheap for the vendor but not for the customer who is constantly caught in the costly and wasteful upgrade cycle.

Something like a wearable laser pointer. Use a button on the keyboard for a 'click'. This doesn't seem that hard. It would rock for FPS games.

Can't you just by cards made offshore that will not honor the broadcast flag? If there is a market someone will build them.
