Some sophisticated audio analysis technology that I'm too lazy to dig up.
I didn't realise Napster had that. If it could accurately filter out the blacklisted content and it was available to the Grokster developers, then I can understand requiring Grokster to implement it.
One document that came up easily mentions speed-limiters, but it seems they are only required for heavy vehicles. Further research seems to confirm that all vehicles over 12 metric tons require speed limiters in the EU.
This document is quite dated (1995!), but it seems speed limiters were suggested for all automobiles in the UK, but it was eventually dropped. I was not able to find very much at all about limiters for regular vehicles, so I would say they are not required over there.
This report from 2002 also mentions no other country requires them. (The US government does not, but allows the states to set more stringent regulations.) It also mentions the obvious argument for why: There are plenty of cars out there without the limiters: Imposing speed limiters on only new vehicles could encourage people to purchase "hot rod" style used vehicles, which would be less safe than standard new models.
I remember AudioGalaxy agreed and permitted the RIAA to flag certain artists/tracks so the files could not be downloaded.
The RIAA discovered that it was not effective in the least. People would simply rename the files.
Considering there is no way effective way (that I know of) to teach Grokster to identify content that should not be shared, I really don't see an alternative to creating a database of hashes or filename patterns, neither of which could stop the sharing.
In other words, Grokster is likely refusing because they understand the futility and the difficulty of creating the easily-circumvented ban lists.
Most cars nowadays are limited. Most drivers will not see this limit, but generally around 120 mi/h 200 km/h the car will disengage the engine until the car has slowed down some. Not surprisingly, some people remove the governors.
Of course, there are very few roads which permit driving anywhere near that fast. I believe many states in the US require vehicles to be sold with the speed limitation.
P.I.E. has a list of IE CSS bugs and plenty of workarounds, mostly using other IE bugs to hide CSS rules from other browsers.
CSS Zen Garden's highlight is the main page. Hundreds of others have created different stylesheets for it which completely change the appearance. The special effects set has some very impressive effects accomplished with pure CSS.
The bad thing about the CSS Zen Garden is it's depressing. Few people designing sites professionally for a company are able to really use CSS, only using the pitiful amount it supports correctly. It's depressing because the web could be so much better if only IE would go away.
The only problem is that using symbols generally makes it more difficult for users to memorize their passwords. A better way to increase brute-force time is to add one more character.
8 characters results in a huge number, so I'll use 6 as an example. My results assume 62 characters in the no symbols set (letters + numbers) (26 * 2 + 10) and symbols provide an additional 32 characters. (Where I work, the admin tells everyone to use one of the symbols from the number keys, so 32 is far more than the 10 symbols users would choose here.)
6 char, no symbols: 56.800.235.584 combinations 6 char, symbols: 689.869.781.056 7 char, no symbols: 3.521.614.606.208
7 char without symbols has 5 times more combinations than 6 char with symbols.
I'd rather go with a password they can remember, and if paranoid, increase the minimum length by a character. On the other hand, if a user voluntarily uses a symbol, I wouldn't complain. I just feel forcing the use of them makes the password more likely to be written down or forgotten.
They are persistent. But this worked for me: Say you joined the Navy, Marines, or Air Force. If you say you're in another branch, they will stop trying to recruit you.
I found a screenshot of what you're describing. One thing I like about Firefox is how slim I can make the interface. This is the opposite, "let's make the working area as tiny as possible because big toolbars are user-friendly!"
To me, it looks like Microsoft is trying to "embrace and extend" Apple's iTunes and QuickTime interfaces with that obscenely large button. Too bad Microsoft is so terrible at UI design.
Those other two toolbars below the big one look very out of place as well.
I would guess Databass is referring to the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty which forbids ground-launched cruise missiles which serve as a weapon delivery device and are capable of travelling over 500km.
A review of the treaty concluded that predators with hellfire missiles were not in violation. From what I understand their reasoning was that the UAVs are not missiles delivering a weapon, but rather an unmanned aeroplane carrying a missile.
Automatics shift differently from manuals. They don't use a clutch; the transmission is always engaged. They use a torque converter instead. So no, automatics don't necessarily need a neutral state. (Of course, all cars do AFAIK.)
To the grandparent, Priuses (Prii?) can be put into neutral. It's pretty apparent from the stick alone. Although it does take a second to shift to neutral (my guess is so you can keep moving while shifting from D to B; some have suggested it's for safety).
This is true, but those prop planes aren't what a terrorist would be interested in anyway. They don't carry as much fuel as a trans-atlantic jet and they don't have as many people to scare. Plus they're a bit of a pain to stand in, but that might just be because I'm taller.
I took into the deception and was trying to figure out how the : was running it indefinitely and piping data into another no-op and such. Then I realised it was much, much simpler. It is simply a recursive function with a cryptic name which calls itself twice simultaneously.

It's not really Open Source, but the development of Armadillo Aerospace's ship has been thoroughly documented at their site complete with a lot of information about their weekly progress, photos, and movies.
If you had the time and money, you could probably reconstruct their ship. The hardest part would be writing the stabilization/guidance software. That part of the development appears to be closed source.
Armadillo is doing rather well. They are the only real competition to Space Ship One. They just had a very successful launch of a test vehicle. But the engine is nearly dead from all the tinkering the did with it. They will need to create a new engine as well as the final ship before launch. John estimates it will not happen by the end of the year. They still seem to be in good spirits. I am still hoping they win, unlikely as it is now.
They use GPS, and there are "generals" communicating to the players from a control room. The generals can see the entire board so the players don't need to carry anything more than a cellular phone.
Yes, but there truly is a difference. That page lists vulnerabilities for linux packages, not Linux or a specific linux distribution. For example, I see scorched 3d in there twice. You probably would not say an AIM security flaw is evidence of Windows insecurity.
Next, a lot of these will not be running on all systems, especially considering several are vendor specific.
Most are not remote, complete system takeover vulnerabilities either. They tend to either be DoS, run arbitrary functions as a daemon (www-data, nobody, gid games, etc), or local exploits.
Plus, many aren't so much privilege escalation or DoS, but rather is a way to evade auditing or monitoring, for example the Squid vulnerability.
Admittedly several of those are pretty bad (the pwlib and ipsec-tools ones for example), but this is a poor comparison. To really compare, compare vulnerabilities found in an out-of-box installation of a single distribution. And even then, only use it as evidence of that distribution's insecurity.
And not that it matters much, but 12 April to 7 April is five days, and today is the 13th. There are only two items listed for the past three days.
I seem to recall an openssl, openssh, apache and linux kernel exploits making headlines at slashdot, but you can't expect every vulnerability for every package to be listed. This news of 20 vulnerabilities being fixed at once seems newsworthy.
Recently (October, I believe) SuSE announced OpenExchange. I am not sure what your needs are, but it seems to be the project attacking Exchange. OpenExchange
It is commercial, but the costs would still be significantly less than that of MS Exchange and runs off a Linux server.

Late reply and further off topic. Anyhow, that is a great page.
