I don't know this for sure, but wouldn't the RFID just bust out a number as an anti-counterfeit device? I mean, it's not like you're going to be broadcasting your personal information... right?? Are we worried about people replicating the rfid in fake passports? Because if we are, I just see it the same way I see any of the replicable content of the US passport.
I agree. WMA is a joke. But I don't think most people care.
However, while I think most people don't realise there's a difference in compression formats, good luck dislodging iTunes & mp3s from my 60 yr old fathers hands. Anything I can successfully get my old man working with is bound to be around for a LONG time.
"A coordinated online strike against Internet servers by terrorists, dubbed "electronic jihad," may or may not strike this week, security experts said. One security researcher in Moscow warned that Thursday would be the day in question."
Have to love reporters. "may or may not strike this week". Yeah, the world may or may not end this week. "One security researcher... Thursday would be the day in question" I bet I can find 10 guys withing 5 blocks of here claiming the apocalypse is nigh.
Personally, I think maybe congress should outlaw testing on crows. If a few of them get ahold of cell phones for instance, it's difficult to say just what kind of trouble we'd be in for...
I don't think cellphones would be dangerous untill the crows learn to drive.
From the article... "The many-times world champion Shredder will take on Hydra, a Deep Blue style hardware program which was originally developed by ChessBase and is now being maintained by the Pal Group of Companies in Abu Dhabi."
The article says their PR machine hasn't made any noise yet, but they really should be capitalizing on this. Maybe it's because most people don't seem to think about the possibility of spam on their cellphone, but they could have called it "proactive customer protection".
It's all pump-n-dump as far as I can tell. If you look at their 1 and 2 yr stock charts, you'll see that they were doing better. I think it was due to investors thinking one company had a shot and legally licencing all the linux boxes in the world. Of course, that's ridiculous. So now their company is in the toilet.
This is looking a little bit to the future, but if a company goes bust... can't the remaining individuals still sue if they believe their copyrighted code is being misused?
I guess ultimately my question is, does SCO going belly up mean the end of these lawsuits?
That, in and of itself, is my success story with Firefox. Much of my family didn't even notice for a day or so that I had even switched their browser. The buttons look the same, everything pretty much acts the same, and it's just as intuitive. Using the added features like tabbed browsing involve going a little out of their way, so they don't even notice.
The secret plane would be one that is pilotable, I guess. If I'm reading other posts properly, no actual pilot could fly this thing. Which makes me wonder, if it's not fast enough to escape the atmosphere, how does a manned NASA rocket n' shuttle do it?
When does spaceship one get one of those engines.. the sooner we get off this rock the better.
The funny implication is that when you leave, they'll take you somewhere where the gov can't control you. I'm betting against that ever happening. Anywhere you can go, they'll go first.
I've always been a bit mystified by this concept of them losing money on the console to make a market inroad and hurt competition? Doesn't this qualify as "dumping", an illegal activity?
That's a good article, but the article for this says that the guy can be located "anywhere". That gives me the impression that you don't need to be in close proximity.
I'm more interested in the HOW part, myself. I'd like to know if they managed to strap or adhere it to a bone. I'd also like to know what kind of technology they use to make that thing strong enough to be locateable "anywhere". I guess it can't be passive, right?

Apple Computer has decided to adopt the DBA of
"Lemon Computer", citing "bug problems".
That doesn't leave him much room for PC hardware.

Is this what you meant?
As I understand it, Russia is a bad place to get busted for anything. I wonder what they do when the crime is in the 50k range.
Anyone know anything about modern Russian legal?

Yeah, my temperature concerns have just escalated. Looks like my future drive coolers will have to be made by Frigidaire.

Even for LAN firewalls, this is, or should be, normal behavior.
I agree. And this is the most insightful and noteworthy product of "VeriSign's principal scientist". Wow.

I really like how this page isn't compatible with firefox. (the text overlaps pictures)
It is compatible, you just have to refresh. It's one of those weird Gecko bugs that's gone after a refresh. Meh.
What a brilliant place to showcase such a bug! [Obligatory] "DOH!"
Sure. Glad you asked.
Here's a good starting point... pretty much everything you'll need to know. It's from an article that originally ran in the NY Sun in March.

Then Google "Kerry VVAW Witness" and read to your hearts content.
What I meant was, people were saying the G's are just way to high. Not, "how do they go that fast".

It was a nice idea, though.
I'm guessing closer to 1700 gallons per mile.
Looks to be very much like it.
It only seems to work with MS+IE though.
I was unaware of this dashboard deal... but now I want it.

...EVERYTHING is removeable. The question is what happens when you do.
