I think they're a splinter group of Destructicons which had some philosophical differences with Megatron. They've been having some trouble with Terrorcons lately.
It is illegal to ride a bike without a helmet. They are useful - mine saved my skull. They have to conform to government design and manufacturing standards, and cost about $30. Of course, you can still buy a $200 helmet if you really want to.
A state-wide study conducted in the first four years after the introduction of the law showed a 42% reduction in hospital admissions for cycling sustained head injuries.
Yep, we just bought a StorEdge 3510 and the 5 drives we currently have installed all have SUN firmware.
We've also bought an Arena 8511 to test how an identical-but-IDE unit compares, and we're using standard Maxtor 7Y250P0-3(the fast ones with 8Mb cache).
It'll be interesting to see how the V240/3510 compares to a Xeon/8511. Both are dual CPU, with fibre. channel.
SI = metric system, something the US is also adverse to adopting
In 1866, Congress authorized the use of the metric system.
In 1875, the United States solidified its commitment to the development of the internationally recognized metric system by becoming one of the original seventeen signatory nations to the Treaty of the Meter.
In 1893, metric standards, developed through international cooperation under the auspices of BIPM, were adopted as the fundamental standards for length and mass in the United States.

Incidentally, the Australian system requires you by law to vote.
Correct, however as it is also required by law to be a secret ballot, there's nothing to prevent you casting what's known as a donkey vote. This is a ballot paper which has been not filled in, or filled in in a manner which disqualifies it as a valid ballot.
From the linked article - Agents did learn that victims live all over the world, including three in Virginia Beach, one in Chesapeake and one in Newport News. None was identified in court.

Oh, I forgot to mention. You can easily find a few of the fronts by using their search facility and the whois database. The shysters often have several websites with different names, layouts and slightly different prices, but their search engine functionality is identical(code re-use) and the domain contacts all point back to the same couple of people at the same address, usually on Broadway.
D-Link trumps 3-Com, however. They have a 10/100 card which has one model number, one ROM revion, and three different controllers. Each from a different manufacturer. The rest of the board has the same form-factor and layout, just different circuit paths. I've been lucky enough to have all three cross my path.
The windows driver disk for the first one has one driver, the second has two with an INI file with two chip detection strings, the third one has three.
To use them in Linux, you have to read the chip's ID before you put in the system - lspci only gives enough info to guess the module for one of the chips, not the other two. Really cheap card, from a really cheap company.
You've never bought a digital SLR camera from New York -based website, have you?
Yes, great price, 15% to 30% below everyone else. Then once you order it, they call and mention that the camera doesn't have a warranty, that's extra. You know, the plastic lens mount is of lesser quality, you'd be much better of with model with the metal mounting ring. Of course the battery charger and battery is not included in that model.
Whoops, the price is now 25% above everyone else, and you have the standard package that everyone sells. Those other models you've upgraded from don't exist.
Of course, if you stick to your guns and insist on the advertised price, it's mysteriously never in stock or gets lost in the shipping system.
BTW, there are 3 or 4 genuine web shops in NY, check DPReview forums, etc to find them.
I believe that this would allow the owner of a ROM to rip it to another format and use it in an emulator.
This does not affect the copyright holders' ownership, or allow the owner of a ROM to distribute it - it just stops the copyright holder using the DMCA to prevent the owner of a physical ROM making a copy for personal use when the original ROM platform is no longer commercially/reasonably available to buy.
No, HaloZero used the "M" word, so Eeek! is the appropriate response. Of course, HZ is free to use Argh! as much as necessary when Librarian inserts him into his own mini-tower case.
Most traffic lights are wired to a central control system. They can be given a private key on a per day basis and the vehicle is given the public key. The command is entrypted with the public key before transmission.
Each intersection controller needs a firmware/hardware upgrade to do the crypto, the vehicles need a similar upgrade, and a mechanism of distributing the public key to the vehicles needs to be put in place.
Nothing too difficult, and of only moderate expense. The infrastructure for key distribution is already in place, except for someone walking a CF/USB disk from the vehicle dispatcher's PC to each vehicle every day.
The "latest RPM" is, by definition, not stable. It has not had the testing period that a "stable" package has.
If you want a more recent version than is available in stable, pin your machine at stable and install the "testing" package(which satisfies dependancies), or run testing itself.
You can also find a third-party debian source(eg http://marillat.free.fr), or compile it yourself, though that also defeats the testing period.
Bullshit. Any property can be examined for/as evidence, no matter if it is public, private, or who owns it.
Police can search your house, do DNA testing on the bloodstains on your shirt, the dirt under your fingernails, ballistics tests on your gun, match fibres from your passenger seat, match paint left at a crime scene to your scratched fender, or any number of other things.
USB drives are block devices(512bytes/block for the few I've used) and can be treated like any block device. They usually appear as SCSI disks(/dev/sda, etc) and have partitions(/dev/sda1, etc) which can be fdisk'ed, mkfs'ed and mounted with whatever filesystem you care to use.
I usually use vfat for compatibility, ext2 for deliberate incompatibility, or a raw device/partition for a bestcrypt container.
Even though modern [USB|IDE]/FLASH bridge chips use tricks to spread writes across cells(to stop bits wearing out too fast), I also mount them nomtime,noatime to reduce writes. Oh, and ext3(or any journaling fs) is a good way to prematurely wear them out, too.

And secondly, what are Americons?
I think they're a splinter group of Destructicons which had some philosophical differences with Megatron. They've been having some trouble with Terrorcons lately.
I mean, how many times have you been chased down the street by a gang of gun waving thugs?
*pant* *pant* Oh, about 30 seconds.
Can't talk, they've found me again! And this time they've got pitchforks and flaming torches, too!

We have Burger King here, be we call them Hungry Jacks.
My three Accusys 7500 modules are working fine, too. I've not had a drive fail yet, but I've faulted them manually during testing with no problems.

Wow! There's people who've never heard of Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo? What a grey, joyless childhood they must have had.
.gov.au does not enjoy a similar reduction of spam. I'm happy to say that our users get a many and varied selection of crap every day.

Thank you! I've been leeching these thing manually from day one, but now and again there'd be one that just didn't want to work no matter what I did.

There's RTSP rippers available for windows, and the RTSP spec is public, so it's possible to write one yourself.
As far as mms is converned(Windows Media streams) you can get mmsclient.
Both can be played directly with various versions of xine or mplayer.
