One day a good friend asked me how he could get his computer fried so he could send it to the insurance company to get a new one. Me being the good friend, I told him it's possible and how. I left and later asked him about it. As directed, he had plugged in a bare 3-prong plug and touch the hot end to his motherboard. Needless to say it burned a hole right through it. He sent the PC in and got a new one right away.
I imagine the difference between her and these cleaning factories you mention is that the factories let it dry thoroughly before plugging it back in. You can wash a lot of electronics, but just make sure it dries completely before you plug it back in!
Would advertising it as 1 GB be then considered false?
Would you hold hard drive manufacturers accountable for false advertising then? Most advertise their drives in gigabytes, when they really equate to a base 10 conversion (think 1,000,000 kB for every gigabyte, as opposed to the actual 1,048,576 kB for every gigabyte).
That's a poor argument. Just because it is allowed by law doesn't mean you should do it. Of course, you mention it as logic and not ethics, so my point is moot.
Readability: XHTML is readable as long as it is structured correctly. Note: That doesn't mean having everything on one line.
XHTML can be done with a plain text editor just like regular HTML, though as always, it's best to use a text editor that at least has syntax highlighting.
I code valid XHTML nearly everday as a freakin' hobby. There's 3 useful things I've come to know:
Make it structured and it is easily readable. Tabs, line breaks, and spaces in appropriate places.
A text editor with syntax highlighting. A must.
Ok, so I forgot what the third was.
The above is true for nearly all programming.
Slashdot, home of the all-knowing arrogant beings.
Are valid XHTML 1.1 Transitional. Notice the slash on the end of each of those? You have to close tags this way that do not have a closing tag (img, doctype, few others).
I definitely call BS. XHTML is not much different than HTML (it is based on HTML, after all). CSS is very, very easy to use and much easier to keep track of than making changes to the presentation via HTML. It is also much more powerful.
The W3C validators help a lot.
You know what the best convenience device is? TP. That's right, Toilet Paper. I'm sure glad I've never had to wipe my ass with corn cobs, rocks, or the Sears catalog.
I'm not a quantum mechanics buff, far from it, but I can analyze your comment. You contradict yourself a few times. First you say that it is impossible to eavesdrop on a conversation. Twice. Then you say essentially say that The probability that an eavesdropper would be successfull is vanishingly small.
The virus is already on the inside with "root". It would be trivial for the virus to simply disable the firewall before spewing.
No, for a "reverse" firewall to make any sense, the firewall must be on a different machine.
Which is why in the FAS (F'ing Article Summary), He says reverse firewalls should be embedded in every cable modem and wireless access point for home users. Notice that he never says in the FAS that it should be on the same PC. Stop whoring for karma.
Simplistic... I never thought about it that way. 'Entertaining' is the word that comes to mind. A bit like the Harry Potter series. Simplistic, yes, but not nearly as so.
For me, there's nothing like sitting down, popping open a heavy, hardback and getting the first wiff of the book's pages.
Yes, movies are good, but books are much more detailed than movies can ever be. Ever read Lord of the Rings, or the Sword of Shannara trilogy cover to cover? I'm not sure if I can sit through reading another 4 pages of descriptive narrative in FotR, but Sword of Shannara is definitely a great series, as are it's "sorta" sequels. More information can definitely be found at terrybrooks.net.
Historians are always ranking every president the 'worst in history'. All presidents have had flaws in/out of office and have done bad and good. It all depends if you look at the bad side, the good side, or both and come to a conclusion. Historians seem to look at nothing but the bad.
It's because you're using the stock fan. Spend about $30 w/ shipping a buy a nice Thermaltake Volcano 7+ (the one I use). I've had it since my Athlon XP 1900+ and overclocking it to 1900 mhz and it has stayed with me to my 2400+. It cools better than most of the cheap watercooling kits ($100-$150) and is a lot cheaper. I'm overclocking my 2400+ to 2256 mhz (150 mhz FSB from 133 mhz FSB, 256 mhz overclock), the Volcano 7+'s fan controller is set on high, and my max temp is about 53c.
Also, make sure you have at least 2 fans in the front and 2 fans in the back (if they're 80mm fans). Two 120mm fans would probably do just as good or better.
The above post is +5 informative? Wow....

Nano is also packaged with Gentoo. I didn't like it, and I kind of like those obscure key-combination editors (re: vi/vim) :)
I'm really curious as to how you could've done this when you were only 2.

I know why he was pissed. He was asked by your boss to tell you he had been screwing your wife.

What is so damn hard about closing what you open, quoting attributes, listing a doctype, nesting properly, and writing tags in lowercase?
Maybe he was born in a barn.

So which is it? Impossible or highly improbable?
Don't you mean Doom 3? Yeah, I know since the specs were released Doom 3 requirement jokes aren't funny anymore.

Well, it could kill you, only indirectly. Ever read Kilobyte? Yeah, it's a stretch.
You just haven't read /. in the past 3 months.

Some distributors violate that rule, but most require you to purchase some hardware, even if it's only something like a seringe of Artic Silver II.
