There might be a problem with the lowres bar, but in the full version, it covers the left bar only and doesn't encroach upon the comment space. Perhaps the centre top bar they used to use would be better for compressed screens, or even the first one which didn't even move with the page.
If you log into gmail then won't your search be linked anyway? (since mail.google.com would be proxied)
In the end, the simplest is to stop using google if you feel your privacy is compromised and try to find a company with a better policy. I tend to trust google enough to keep my search history, so what that they know you search for killing your wife or drowning barbie dolls, let them assess all they want, because you cannot be found guilty of thinking about a crime.
its a locked down fujitsu-siemens, the option is not available in bios. my boss would go ape if the machine went tits up by upgrading the bios for a *game*.
If you disable the firewall then won't a worm bounce around your internal network like wildfire? Sure, you can protect the machines from the great unwashed interweb, but all it takes is one single untrusted application running somewhere on your network to make this go BOOOOM.
Actually, its come full circle. AMD's cool n quiet does the opposite and at least for original Unreal tournament it runs at the wrong speed (sometimes too slow, occasionally too quick). My new amd 64 3400 runs UT worse than my older slower machine, I need an unturbo button which locks the processor speed for a while. timings in the game are based upon a test loop at the start, the cpu speed changes under load so you get the wrong speed, I know theres a parameter to attempt to fix it, but its just annoying to have my latest computer running a 7 year old game like crap, I've become fragbait in the office.
This is not a problem of trying 9 times to break in, this is a problem of somebody RECORDING whilst you enter your correct details into the account.
As you know, with HSBC, you are asked to specify 3 digits from your security key (which is 6-8 characters long)
This is fine and stops people shoulder surfing to get it once, but if someone keeps recording you they will have all they need.
I actually had more of a shock in the past when I managed to man in the middle the HSBC login, but after speaking to them (they called me back literally within seconds of me mailing them) it was cleared up and my worries were put to rest (there is a ~2 minute timeout where if you steal the cookies from someones machine who has logged in but not logged out where you can technically get at the information - this might have changed since, but it used to be the case)
Storing every single search performed by every person in the world across a whole epoch could pretty much give you the pulse of the world. Watching as news spreads and worries and concerns grow or when good news occurs or even just good publicity, there are millions of people all adding entries into the real hitchhikers guide.
Google will be almost certain of knowing the current number one chart hit at any location on Earth at any time simply by the concentration of searches for that artist/song, it could follow gun culture or tv plotlines or anything flowing into its servers.
In the right hands, this could become an amazing asset for the whole world. I believe the current owners of google are primed to achieve such a feat.
I however wonder what will happen when Page and Brin are gone or are sidestepped by the government.
The data is out there, what exactly could they do? Erase it from peoples hard drives, remove it from all the pipes that its in, drug everyone who has seen it?
The fact they have this data is one thing, releasing it to the public is another.
Yes, but the distance between the stars is growing all the time, consider what would happen to the pitch of sound along a tunnel with a 5mph wind going in one direction and you and a police car at either end. What would happen if the wind speed dropped or increased?
Think of the universe like a bubble. We are at one point of the bubble, and a distant star system is at another. Imagine setting off in a car from their star to ours. At the point the journey starts, the distance is X.
All the time, the bubble is expanding, so the distance between us is growing bigger and bigger, so when you reach the original halfway point, you still have 3/4 of your journey left.
"nearby" objects aren't affected as much by the changes because the travelling time is small, but as the distance increases the redshift becomes more pronounced.
Thats my understanding of it anyway (affect/effect errors be damned).
You never know it might happen - AOL could make a tender for managing this DB.

The system says you are an axe-wielding maniac, you are entitled to 25% off our powertools!
As the article says though, its unworkable, and doesn't even get round to web/telephone transactions and verifying the person on the other end is who they say they are.
You would need a pretty small brush to make them work fast enough to be really useful. Someone like Chinese micro-painter Jin Yin Hua who has painted an image of a giant panda on a single human hair could really do it justice.
However for simpler curcuits it could be good to do.
I personally would prefer to put this ink into an inkjet printer and get better results.
The talented editor can select whichever image appeals and can decide what to run with for his paper. HE can also see what other editors are doing and hopefully make an even more informed choice.
Don't reporters now have access to upload/download images directly and choose the ones they run with themselves (as well as ranking of the best recent images)? If not, why not? It sounds like your bog standard porn thumbnail gallery actually, it could work nicely.

Does this mean I get next week off work?
I wouldn't want to overheat.
Opening a portal to Xen could cause a resonance cascade.
Dr. Isaac Kleiner has been warning us about this for years.
Now your just boasting :P

Actually, just logging one session isn't enough to get into HSBC, they only ask for a part of your special key.

What happens though when Microsoft detects all 11 out of your 10 licensed machines online at the same time?
(this is of course hypothetical for now)
Which one will be the one that gets disabled?
Best hope its not one of the directors machines.
5 computers at office, 2 at directors home, 3 in the warehouse and 1 from a residential ip.
I wonder if the employer could extract customer details from the ISP based upon this or if they would have to go via a john doe lawsuit (like RIAA)?
Well I for one get the joke, shame you have been modded a troll.

Redshift is a problem of distance.
Think of the universe like a bubble.
We are at one point of the bubble, and a distant star system is at another.
Imagine setting off in a car from their star to ours.
At the point the journey starts, the distance is X.

I bet they bring one thing thats more powerful than ANYTHING these other IDE's can:
Age and history, don't forget, most of the managers now were code monkeys back then and a hell of a lot of them used borland.
But then my taxes will go up to support such a waste.
Why can't our government just do whats right and shoot this idea in the head.
