Michigan state has already enacted nearly this same law. I know, because I got felony charges for it back in 2007 after petitioning digg users to help recover some expensive stolen property.
Michigan law here:
(Public Act 475 of 2000). (That Act, which will take effect on April 1, 2001, prohibits a person from posting a message through any medium of communication, including the Internet, if the person knows that posting the message could cause two or more "separate noncontinuous acts of unconsented contact with the victim"; if posting the message is intended to cause conduct that would make the victim feel frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed, or molested; if conduct arising from the posting would cause a reasonable person to suffer emotional distress and to feel frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed, or molested; or if conduct arising from the posting causes the victim to suffer emotional distress and to feel frightened, intimidated, etc. Enhanced penalties apply under certain aggravating circumstances, e.g., posting the message is in violation of a condition of probation or parole, or results in the communication of a credible threat to the victim.)
If the name or address is in Michigan you might. I was charged with a felony last year for posting someones email address on the internet.

Beware. It could happen to you.
Oh no no no. Google has to remain neutral in all of this because we can't have them dictating web standards either. Imagine if Google decided to add their own "standards" to the list that would make pages rank higher. Then Google would be the new web standards overlord.
Apple employees find out about new products when they're being announced. Or online. Nobody knows anything.
they she goes on to give specific details about products that will be changed or released shortly. If Apple employees don't know anything, then neither does she.
I almost felt sorry for the poor broke kid until I realized that he is buying expensive electronics. An iPod is not necessary to survive unless you're not "cool" enough.
256MB on a graphics card isn't that uncommon anymore. I just upgraded my system and bought a $90 video card (Radeon X600) that is not even mid-range anymore and it came with 256MB of memory.
In fact, you can buy X300s and 6200s in PCI-Express and 256MB for under $60. By the time Vista is released they will be even cheaper.
I think you must all be remembering last year when a 256MB card cost $300.
1. Will it play regular MP3s, etc like the other iPods or just iTunes music?
4. Is there USB2.0 support? 512MB at 1.1 speeds will take a long time to transfer.
2. How much for additional memory cards?
3. How much for the phone?
If you think "real" $2 bills are hard to spend, try passing off Liberty Dollars. I've had some success with they before, but you will surely get some strange looks.
Consumers have accepted the idea of rentals which they also don't own. I think DRM material can find it's own place somewhere between the idea of completely owning a physical disc and renting material that they will have to return.
I personally use iTunes and have never been bothered by the DRM. It works fine on my computer, my iPod, and my truck's CD player (when burned).
This clip was shown in a part of a computer history video at my school. That exact same piece! This video has NOT been lost for decades as the story says...
Still, it makes me cry everytime I watch it.
And where exactly can use his fame in the open-source community? Wikipedia is our best work yet, but no serious scholar (such as Ken) would support it as a reference source. Furthermore, Wikimedia doesn't have the dollars MS does.
Sounds like you have all the right tools, but are lacking the finer points of graphic design. Might be worthwhile to take evening classes on computer design. I've personally found these to be helpful.
Longhorn isn't Microsoft's key to success. Since a lot of software will have to be rewritten/updated to run properly under Longhorn, this will give the perfect opportunity for people to switch to a non-Microsoft OS...such as Linux.
I know someone suggested awhile back that e-mail users should have to execute a piece of complicated code for each e-mail they send (was this Billy Gates idea?).
Anyway, why don't we allow people to send an e-mail for donating a small amount of time to a DC project? Just think, we could send free e-mail AND search for intelligent life at the same time!
That is funny, but Explorers are surprising reliable vehicles. I know several people that are nearing 200,000 miles on them and my dad has a quarter million miles on his explorer and still no major repair work done on it yet!

The Blues for LEDs
·
· Score: 1
My roommate at college has a G4 and the blue glowing LED light on the front on the monitor is bright enough to light up the room at night.
Problem is that you can't easily cover it up because these Macs have a clear plaster layer on top of the LED which spreads the light even farther. We had to use a half-roll of black tape to try and get some of the light covered.
You'd think that someone at the Mac R&D would realize that there are people that use these things in their bedroom.
Ebay has some form of Passport.NET implemented on their website, but I've never used it. I don't really see why I should considering that I'm already registered with eBay and my current username and password work just fine.

I've never used a Yahoo chat before anyways. There is nothing useful about public chat rooms. Oh, and FIRST POST!

Dude, you make a good suggestion, but it won't work if you don't provide the correct IP. Google is at 216.239.39.99, NOT the IP your gave.
