I more meant something that would convince my sister that it was a bad idea vs. actually stopping her from doing things. It was meant to be funny but I think I was a little off.
That convinces your little sister she doesn't need a barbie IE brower theme or a cursor that looks like a puppy dog.
Hold that, I want a program that turns the cursor into a weapon of some fashion that I may use to smite that damend purple monkey on my computer. That's worth my website traffic being shipped of to who knows where in itself.
From some previous posts it appears you must be registered to attend a public college/university, I attended a private school and didn't know this until reading it yesterday. Also, I don't think the only way they know about me is via the registration. I would guess, granted this is a guess, that they would start looking at drivers license info and other stuff of that nature. I'd probally go first but there's also the fact that I do consider it somewhat of a civic responsability. I didn't live through the Vietnam but I know that many, many people that went didn't believe in it. What they did believe in was their country so, as misguided as the war was, they fought. I would also fight if drafted. I don't think there should be a draft and I definately don't agree with W, but if my country calls, I'd go.
Isn't it moderately illegel to not register? I'm guessing that if there were ever the need to draft they'd start going after people for not registering. Guessing they'd find lots of creative ways to run people down if they set out to so I don't feel like I really walked into something overly terrible by registering.
It's a good thing we have states like California with the nutsack (and economy) to stand up to The Man and fund research into "controversial" areas such as stem cell.
Granted, I'm not from CA but last I heard you didn't have the budget to do jack crap. I seem to recall you're last governor getting run out of office mid-term due to being billions and billions of dollars in the hole.
And speaking of CA's "balls" to do "controversial" medicine I read this today. I bet that won't be abused as an end run around drug laws.
I think the first order of business is for the hero to judiciosly take a chainsaw to a cgi-animated fellow that bears a distinct likeness to Jar-Jar. Enought of a likeness to be funny but not so much as to bring the wrath of the Lucas Arts lawyers. Because, as we all know, lightsabers trump chainsaws.

I picked it up at midnight and played about 6 hours. Your teammates are smarter. There's a scene where you're driving a scorpion tank on a bridge with 2 soldiers one, one with a rifle and one with a rocket launcher. They're picking targets up and telling you about targets before you even see them. Immediately previous to that I was driving a warthog with a gunner that was quite efficient while another, completely AI filled, warthog was right next to me taking down covenant like it was going out of style. Much better AI across the board.
Because they seem to be the largest growth industry as of late. This is ridiculous, just like the Eolas patent.....Ben Franklin's descendants should try and patent electricity, it just might go through in the systems current state.
I could be way off but I'm under the impression that people pay for support more so than the license. I also know some companies that would rather pay for a license then get something for free. Some people don't like/can't handle the idea of not paying for stuff. They feel the license fee provides them some form of indemnification against lawsuits or some other sillyness. Old habits are hard to break and it used to be, once upon a time, that people didn't have sweet open source apps to use. Poor, poor people.
Unreal....I agree with your observation. It looks like something bigger than the boat load of fines will have to happen to M$ before they change their ways. Silly silly bill.....he must have left Ballmer alone at the wheel again.
If you watch Dell's website, when they are selling the iPod, you can often find the 40GB, $499 retail, for anywhere from $420 - $475 depending on what coupons they have active at that point. Here we see Dell selling the exact same product for considerablly less. Able's still turning some profit and they're getting more numbers out the door. At this stage in the mp3 player market it's big to have recognition and get your product out there. What people start with and what they're comfortable with is usually what they'll stick with. It worked for M$, why not Apple's iPod?
But then we'd h ave to agree with other countries as to what color our lazer weapons would be( USA = red, russia = blue, france = pink, etc.) so we can finally have a full scale GI Joe-esque presentation. If you've going to have war you need to see who's winning.
Does this mean we'd have a robo-geraldo "entrenched" with the other robots?
If this is the sign of a starting trend, the trend being to use patents to build a revenue stream at the cost of a more open tech. industry, we're in for a rocky road.
In light of the
recent mistakes the bigger issue isn't for people to make sure that their vote was registered to the right candidate but to allow them to trace the behaviour of the system. It is important that the right vote is registered but I would think that systems that can't even count right would be a bigger issue. Also, the post to which I responded mayd the comment that this system wouldn't even matter if they voter didn't check their vote and that is wrong. The very fact that this provides some type of documentation over nothing, which there is now, is an important step in the right direction of holding these companies accountable. I'd much rather see an open source voting system with the source available to all, but I don't know if that will ever happen.
Time will tell and by not investing you still retain all rights to your soul. It's impolite to make money off of the doomed, even if it is used for the betterment of society or beer or whatever.
Are you retarded or do you just not read anything before typing. In the article, which you had to click on to post your comment, it says
This receipt will not be retained by the voter, but deposited at the polls and may be used to audit electronic election results.
From the actual article which it would appear you didn't read in your haste to enlighten our lives with you post
With a receipt, voters will be able to verify that their ballots have been properly cast. However, they will not be allowed to keep the receipts, which will be stored at voting precincts and used for a recount if any voting irregularities arise.
"No other company in the world has succeeded in operating such a flying machine, capable of independent flying without remote control."
There's a difference between pilotless and remote control. Remote control has a pilot, they're just not physically in the vehicle, much like the US predator drone. This helicopter was simply given series of coordinates and it used sensors and what not to adjust direction, throttle, etc. which is the difference. The computers drove the vehicle, not people. Your post seems like a quick, unintelligent post to get on the first page of comments. Poor form.
Gotta love using the ibook for the forces of good. That's really all I have to say, just a little fanboy post. I think what they are doing is commendable and someday I aspire to have the skill required to do things like that.
It seems really dodgy that something as big as a security update would be withheld from an OS that was "current" until a week ago. I'm just going to wait and see what happens. My guess is that they'll patch Jaguar in the near future.
That little purple swinging fruitcake will not leave computers. I swear, he's like the freaking plague, your mother-in-law and an itch in the middle of your back where you can't scratch it all rolled into one. That's all I've got, just a rant. But an honest one at that.
I'd note the key phrase is "after it had been out for some time". Maybe they'll do the same with Panther, maybe not. Jaguar had a lot of "fixes" that made the general computing experience better than 10.1 and I think apple had something to prove with Jaguar. Panther doesn't have those same hangups to get over, Jaguar did that, so I don't think there's as much motivation to prove anything with it.
