ooh thaks for clarifying it. I guess I got distracted by all the hex stuff and thought they meant that the offest could only be 0-F, like that thing about needing only 15 (16) tries to break it.
Just think about it, if everyone payed all licensing fees and royalties and whatever on all software from the beginning, only the 5 richest people in the world could afford computers, and those computers would still today fill a large room and only have 640k ram.
We are where we are today, because not everyone was completely legal in writing and purchasing/using software. We would be in the technological stoneage, I'm completely serious. These companies need to realise that they have to take a hit on royalties or there would be zero, 0, nil, null, ling, zippo market for their software.
Do you understand? Someone inform the US government that software patents should be null and void, especially since there is no professional licensing for programmers. America and the whole World cannot afford monetary licensing and restriction on any form of software.
If software companies want to charge royalties to everyone who uses their code, they better cough up a buck for each 1 and 0 they've ever used and give it to the estate of Von Neumann and Turing or destroy all of their software and computers and get out of the business.
trouble. Really, the best way to stop music piracy is to keep releasing crappy music, no one will want it anymore, not even for free.
(oh yeah, and release everything that's at least 10 years old into the public domain, that'd be real swell)
they still need food and supplies, and according to nasa, they'll be getting them tomorrow. Russia is still on schedule to launch a progress cargo module to resupply the station. The previous cargo ship undocked this morning on schedule for its trip to take all the garbage from the station and burn up in the atmosphere. The Space Station is not in any way dependent on the space shuttle, only for some of the new components, otherwise it can run fully off of Russian launches.
This stuff has been around for at least 15 years. There's even a bathroom at some icecream shop somewhere that has glass walls. But when you lock the door they frost up...jokes on those who never lock the door behind them.
By the syopsis on/. it jsut seems someone decided, "hey, we can use an lcd projecter and use the windows as the screen"
nothing big, moving on...
why would you think the plane is too high to get a signal? the highest up you ever get is about 6.5 miles (10km) plenty of cell equipment work beyond that range. The real problem with cell phones on aircraft is that on the ground you have a strong signal to maybe two or three cell towers (line of sight, no obstruction) in the air, you can be in clear range of 10-20 cell towers. The negotiation protocol (which tower am I talking to/will talk to next?) on the phone and towers goes haywire, jamming up all the phone traffic on them. Besides, the cell phone is a decently powered (1/4-1/2watt? someone?) localized transmitter, so it can and probably will fuck a lot of avionics up.
You belived for the longest time. So is that some belief you developed in your own sociological studies? or have you been watching too much Star Trek in your life?
the real problem is that they need a reset button for the movies at least or else all the freaks out there will bitch and wind about the movie not being conclusive enough.

but what about a rose or lilly scanner?

That's strange, especially considering I picked my pin (not from a list) and it has nothing to do with my card number.

That's crazy!

and by sight, you mean vision? right?

yes, mozilla can do that, but I believe it's disabled by default

so, does this mean if I'm circumcised but not by a rabi, I can never have a relationship with an orthodox jew?
