Actually he said that he uses 11 and 101 as terminators which means that '3' has a probability of coming up 5 out of 16 times, '5' has a probability of coming up 3 out of 15 times, and each of the other digits have a probability of 1 out of 16 times.

If I had to guess his pin, I would probably skip pins that didn't have a three in them, narrowing down my attempts. (a little less than 4000 instead of 10000)
Ameritech was one of the Baby Bells, however it started absorbing other Baby Bells around it. (Over the years I've had local phone books with AT&T, Wisconsin Bell, Ameritech, and SBC on them)
Yes, Debbie Does Rigel was my favorite. Those were the days, setup a nice planetary trade route (Level 4 citadel required) and watch the credits roll in, especially since you didn't use turns doing this.
There was much namecalling on both sides of the line, Especially since a few of my firends decided it would be a riot to wear the opposing teams jersey to the Con
You're two years behind, GenCon's last year in Milwaukee was 2002.
For perople interested in a place to eat after the Con, Milwaukee had the SafetyHouse (Spy themed restaraunt). Indy has the Ram (brewery & gaming themed bar -- owner is a gamer, open all night during the Con)
The problem is, the current model is about to break down. To televison stations recording the shows and not watching the shows are the same thing. This is because television is funded by advertising. Recorders allow people to skip advertising. Note this is mostly only true for OTA channels, cable has subscription rates to cover this.
I like to check the facts, and the White House has transcripts of every public statement the President has ever made. Iraqi freedom was not mentioned by the President before December of 2002, prior to that time anytime freedom was mentioned in relationship to Iraq, it was about the threat they imposed on our freedom. Democracy was not mentioned in relationship to Iraq before February of 2003, just before Colin Powell made his speech in front of the U.N. War with Iraq was mentioned several times prior to these months, as were Weapons of Mass Destruction. So you were right, Democracy in Iraq was a key reason first brought up a full month before we went to war.
Of course you can gneralize with just three samples, you just have to know how accurate your generalization is. Assuming that we are following standard sampling theory then the margin of error is 1/sqrt(N), or in this case, about 58%.
Yes, but based on subscription rates to some of the more popular webcomics, people ARE willing to buy. From what I've seen of webcomics, most start off as a hobby and -- depending on popularity and the ability to generate revenue -- become the artist's main profession. The most obvious example of this, in my mind, is Megatokyo.
But what tendencies would you give them, They're all beauracracies, but what else? Would you put apple in the weird category, possibly communist? How about Microsoft in violent, or maybe facist? What about Intel?
I actually don't like the CSM, but I had some time over lunch, it turns out that they have one 7 Pulitzers:
3 for International reporting:
Edmund Stevens in 1950
R. John Hughes in 1967
David Rohde in 1996
2 for National Reporting:
Howard James in 1968
Robert Cahn in 1969
1 for Editorial Cartooning:
Clay Bennet in 2002
1 Special Award, a Citation for Journalism:
Richard Lee Strout in 1978
Patents goign back to '76 are expired. In the US, patents last 20 years from filing or 17 years from the date the patent is granted (depending on what year you got your patent). Either way, it would have expired in the mid 90's.
The other good thing about US patent law is that if anyone wanted to challenge Microsoft, and could show that they had the idea first, they would eventually get the patent -- assuming they could survive while in litigation.
I beleive he meant it in the sense of the original developing team, and the team that reversed engineered the product. If he did not mean this then I agree with the parent.
I may be misreading this as I'm not a lawyer, however I belive the orginal SCO claim (as posted on Groklaw) was for infringement on Trade Secrets. From what I remmebr if this is the case then the law is even further limiting than with a Patent or Copyright case. The minute a trade secret ceases to be a secret it is lost. The only recompense in court is to sue for breach of contract (usually in the form of an NDA violation). Demanding liscenses for Linux, on the other hand, is beyond what US law is supposed to allow for Trade Secrets. But Like I disclaimered bave, I am not a lawyer so take this with a grain of salt.

The rules are somewhat more revealed in the further expansions, although they just add more confusing rules (part of the fun). My only main gripe with the game is that the ending is only tangentially related to how well you do in the game. But then again, that's not the point of killer bunnies. Can anyone say Quintuple Lucky Bunny with a Halo?
A Few years back, when I was younger and more naive, I installed AOL on a 95 box. It put in a hook that checked for an AOL header to the winsocks.dll file. I wouldn't have noticed this if I hadn't tried uninstalling AOL. I literally had to hack the winsocks.dll file with a hex editor in order to get my computer working without AOL.

We saw how well this worked in the case of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. Granted they aren't sharing the same body, bu still eerily similar.
I was under the impression that only fermions had three quarks,whereas bosons had two. Was I mistaken?
I also know of at least two Grocery store chains that require them for all employees.

Did you not notice that you obtained the correct result?
By the definition of XOR this has to work assuming you are not pointing in memory to the same location.
x^^x = 0
x^^0 = x
where x is any number
XOR is also transitive and associative
A(1) = A(0)^^B(0)
B(1) = A(1)^^B(0) = A(0)^^B(0)^^B(0) = A(0)
A(2) = A(1)^^B(1) = A(0)^^B(0)^^A(0) = B(0)
Independent of the numbers.

I forgot to mention that the 58% is +/-, so if the average score was 2 out of 5, you could expect anywhere from -1 to 5 out of 5 in service.

The only problem with Gallium Arsenide is that it has been "the next big thing" in semiconductors for the last 40 years.
