Exactly why do you have a laptop if you're going to keep it hooked up to wired ethernet all the time? If it's going to be a hassle to pick your laptop up and take it away somewhere, without destroying all your network connections, what's the point? Don't tell me you need Gigabit Ethernet all day long?
I know for a fact that the Perl DBI module can do that too. I'm sure many other popular languages can do it to, point being that's nothing peculiar to.Net
They're a company, protecting their profits with nary a regard for their customers welfare. They're doing no more wrong than what's expected of any company.
Maybe not. Conficker 'patches' the hole it exploited in the first place, presumably to prevent the box getting subsequently rooted by some competing botnet owner.
Driving a motor vehicle on the public roads has never been a right.
A secure, inner-city carpark is a privilege.
A safe, fast, luxury car is a privilege.
Officers can speed to apprehend people as a privilege related to their job.
Use of means of transport common to the day is and has always been a basic right of the people. Just because you have to prove proficiency and pay levies doesn't make it any special privilege.
Easy. While I'm at work, my car usually remains stationary. When I drive home from work, I average about 80 km/hr . I'm doing well less than this when I pull into my garage.
How far is my work from home? It doesn't matter whether it's a quarter mile or the next city, that's how an average speed can be higher than a trap speed. Trap speeds on competitive events like a standing quarter-mile because the driver is still accelerating across the line.
I know what you mean, I've been pretty tolerant of my home DSL in NZ, sometimes my rate is great, other times, especially when school is just out it starts to get a bit annoying. Oh well, no biggie, because for my usage it's the cheapest plan around.
But when I buy an song off iTunes I feel pissed every time that sucker isn't downloaded right this goddamn second. I'm sharing the pipe with someone who's probably downloading a RAR of the album I just bought. And in turn seeding it back the other way, might as well hold up my ACK packets as well while you're at it.
You might be against physical punishment of your children, and personally I am to keep it at a minimum, but kids do not learn not to touch hot things until they've been burned at least once. A good ass kicking of a 6 year old saves 100 future punishments or more.
I live in a country (New Zealand) where anything in the form of a smack is illegal. On hand we've got the gum'mint waving their hands and assuring us the law is meant to protect child abuse, and won't make criminals out of ordinary parents, and on the other we've got the Police, who when commenting on the law said that they must investigate and prosecute every reported offense.
In dial-up most of the latency comes from serialization delay, rather than propagation delay. You'd typically see very short RTT times on short pings, and much longer ones for larger packets. You could improve the situation by tuning you MTU down to about 500 (from about 1500) to cut your "lag". It depends on who you're calling, but the PSTN typically has
When your latency comes from propagation delay, there's nowt you can do.
They didn't create the 'definition' of PC, they're just using terminology that is already mainstream. Would've been kinda stupid not to, don't you agree?
"Hi, I'm a Mac."
"And I'm an AT-compatible Intel-based computing platform running the Microsoft Windows Operating System"
I think the term 'PC' and its association with MS Windows predates the Mac vs. PC ads, just slightly.
Nobody said that. It's just that the Snow Leopard disc is so cheap because they assume that you have bought an Apple computer already
Nonsense. Upon providing proof of purchase of a new Mac within three months, I was entitled to cheaper pricing still. Now you're going to tell me I got a cheaper price for assuring them of something they'd already assumed.

That's why Insurance Companies don't have "experts", only baby-eating, lying, rotten scoundrels.

Wow! I'm sure the GP never realised the fascinating coincidence! Whoosh!
Uhhh, what?
Grab a dictionary. 'not knowing something exists' would be one loose definition of ignorance, but it has a rather different meaning than ignore. HTH.
Search Warrant. At both of John Doe's addresses probably, better be sure.

Compared to GPL the licensing terms are a breath of fresh air as well.

You're being utterly unreasonable. ISPs "usually" have DNS servers in the same way libraries "usually" have a dictionary.

How are other automobiles not susceptible to a (usually fatal) "0 second" 60-0 time?

No, not bitter.
A friend of mine has always said that if you want to do the job, you should be disqualified from being eligible for it.

And a peek at any Cocoa source code will back that up. Any class beginning with the initials NS is a NextStep class.

Not any more, MS have pulled support for IP over Firewire. Sucks, I know...
