It is a video game where you can regenerate health with the services of a prostitute, kill her when she gets out of the car, take your money back, kill a cop and steal his cop car, kill national guard members and steal their tank, and these people are worried about a little bit of clothed dry humping?
That is the only one that actually makes sense, since the rest of our numbering systems, including time, are big-endian. I happen to like a certain 13 month calendar as well, so that would be MM from 01 to 13, and DD from 01 to 28, or to 35 in a leap year.
This law is an Ex Post Facto law, making what was an illegal act legal, so if this law passes, it should be unconstitutional as per Article 1 Section 9 of the Constitution.
Note that judges have somehow taken that "No bill of attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed." sentence to mean that ex post facto laws that make the punishment worse are unconstitutional, but that isn't what the constitution says. Maybe that is one of those hidden things like in amendment 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10
And yes, up and down should both be reported, or perhaps, the smaller of the two should be what is reported. a 50mbps connection is pretty useless if one direction can only transfer 128kbps.
Advertisers want to sell 1 number, so it should be the smaller of the two.
I think one huge thing is that graphics is a hugely parallelizable task. The operations aren't very complex, so they can just keep cramming more and more processing units onto the chip.
Intel and AMD are having issues getting over 4 cores per die right now, while this card "... packs 240 tiny processing cores into this space, plus 32 raster-operation processors".
The GTX 280 delivered real-world benchmark numbers nearly 50 percent faster than a single GeForce 9800 GTX running on Windows XP, and it was 23-percent faster than that card running on Vista.
Why would Vista make the performance gains so much less? I could see XP running say 20% better with both cards, but why does Vista penalize the new card so much?
Digital Restrictions Management strikes again, I guess...
I think the repeater is a one-port USB hub, so they could be daisy chained for a while, as long as they get enough power from the original port. Maybe have a powered USB hub that the wireless receiver plugs into.
Or you use a USB-Ethernet Extender, which sends the USB signals over an Ethernet cable. I don't think that is USB over IP, so you probably can't plug that into an ethernet switch at all.
Except that might not help here. The issue is that VOIP is an application that needs low latency. You have to send the data you have within (.1 seconds? something small) a specific amount of time, and can't wait for the buffer to fill before sending it, compressed, encrypted or not. Thus you get packets that are different sizes.
This isn't sending the whole conversation at once, this is a constant stream of data with specific requirements on latency.
A solution would be to make each packet the same size by padding it with random data that the other side will discard. But that eliminates some of the benefit of compression.
Maybe just use a fixed bit rate, as opposed to a VBR encoding?
Straight Vegetable Oil (SVO) does require engine modifications.
SVO requires engine modifications if that is the only fuel going into the engine, true.
But if you have a two tank fuel system, with petroleum diesel in one tank, and SVO in the other tank, then the only modifications needed is a system to switch fuels when the SVO gets hot enough, and switch back before shutting the engine down. No replacing of injectors, glow plugs, or anything.
For one thing, most diesel engines can't run on biodiesel unmodified.
That is wrong. In a new diesel, it will run pure biodiesel with no modifications. In a used diesel, the biodiesel will clean out the fuel system, so the fuel filter will get plugged. That is the only change needed.
And, you can't use "fresh" vegetable oil, either. It has to sit in barrels and ferment in the sun.
Ferment into what? It is running in a diesel engine, not a ethanol engine.
For vegetable oils, it needs to be warmed up before running in the diesel engine, but that is also the only thing needed to do when the vegetable oil is heated up before being sent to the engine. One reference for running only straight vegetable engine in a car. There it did need modifications like different injectors and glow plugs, mostly to compensate for the increased viscosity.

Easiest solution would be to require lawyers to be paid in the exact same manner as the class in a class action suit.
If they class gets coupons, the lawyers should get coupons.
One minor correction to your post, although I agree with all of it:
There is no nudity in the Hot Coffee minigame as it was on the disc.

It is a meal, for some very young children
Yep, except the easiest way to actually do that is to bribe the US government.
Why do you think Mickey Mouse is still copyrighted?
For "bang for the buck", would attacking servers be more useful, since they tend to have much better internet connections?
Too bad they would be spending the money the took from me while doing that.
A bit off topic, but that is all that "gun control" does. Or does nobody have a gun in Chicago, New York, or DC?

But, it is interesting how they take the current robots.txt to apply to old content that used to be at that location...
And, it only takes one time breaking the DRM to make it worthless for its intended goal.
Advertisers want to sell 1 number, so it should be the smaller of the two.
You are missing some critical numbers:
Transfer limit (up/down)
And then a good one to have would be:
guaranteed minimum speed
What if the speed they reported is the lowest transfer speed (up or down) that could be obtained continuously for a month?
5GB cap upload? Max reported speed can't be more than: 16 kbps.
AND it still counts as a sale of Vista for their "look how well Vista is selling" Power Point slide shows.
No DRM for non-interactive material (that is video, audio and e-books) is immune to the Analog Hole.
If you can see it, hear it, or read it, it can be copied. No exceptions.
For games it is a bit harder.

Vista: where do we want you to go today?
So you get a USB cable that has a repeater in it.

Resellerratings says to avoid that store.
But, they don't have many reviews, so they might just not be very popular.

You realize that SwiftFuel is an attempt to replace 100LL avgas?
That is 100 Octane, Low Lead.
Avgas already has tetraethyl lead in it, right now. And it is definitely a hazard, as you point out.
That is wrong. In a new diesel, it will run pure biodiesel with no modifications. In a used diesel, the biodiesel will clean out the fuel system, so the fuel filter will get plugged. That is the only change needed.
