Now that you've won spectacularly, is it possible to pursue those damages?
Also, this caught my attention: "However, Vilenchik's deposition testimony was that Zubitskiy called him at the following number: 612-963-2900. What would make this phone number particularly easy to recall eludes the Court."
Assuming that 612 is the local area code and doesn't need to be memorized, the rest of the number is quite easy. 963... geometrically, it makes a nice line up the right side of the keypad, and the 2900 is trivial to remember as well. Perhaps 29 has some special significance and, even if not, how hard is it to remember that? Regardless, the rest of the defendant's is basically BS anyways but that point stuck out as being not implausible.
Many Take Two shareholders are suing the company for acting outside of the best interest of it's share holders. Nice. I like how in your parody of the Yahoo story you reproduce Slashdot's trademark grammatical error.
Have her make a pattern on the keyboard that she can remember. I've actually had a number of PIN codes that I didn't actually remember apart from the pattern they make on the numeric keypad.
So you have her start with her favorite character and then type in the pattern that corresponds with UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT A B?
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him to eat and he will fish forever. Just wanted to say your sig is awesome. Though I can't help but thinking there's a third part that starts with "Give him a beer...".:)
"NAT is a really, really bad solution. It creates two classes of internet user: those that may run servers, and those that may not; a second-rank type of internet citizen, so to speak."
I must then be imagining the public web server that I run over my NAT'd DSL connection. So your ISP assigns your DSL connection one private IP address which you then NAT to another private IP address?
Help me out here, I have a Pentium III 877Mhz processor machine with about a half gig of DDR ram that I purchased in 2000. It still runs fine. For some reason when I install Visual Studio on the Win XP partition, it does not work so well. Are you asking honestly or just trolling? In the off chance that it's an honest question, then the answer is that your specs should work just fine. If it's not working, then you'll have to let us know: what was Microsoft Support's response to your question that your machine which meets their specs isn't functioning? Did you file a bug report with them?
Where did you get your math from. 2.5 minutes is 150 seconds. If you averaged 32mb/s that would be 4800mb not 600mb. You actually averaged 4mb/s and probably pay for 6mb/s. Obviously the "600 mb" is meant to be "600 MB":
Works for razors - 2 is better than 1, so 3 has got to be better than 2. I'm not switching from Intel until someone comes out with 5 - count 'em, 5! - micro sharp cores... Is this proof of shaving by induction?
Why is that any better? He's still dead. If you were to die from cancer, or some other long term disease, at least you die with the people around you. He died alone, in some unknown place. That's supposed to be "better"? Either you don't get it or you don't agree. Either way is fine, you don't have to. But many other agree with the sentiments expressed by the saying.
Explain to me how playing a game on a system where coordination is a big key, is fun wile you are drunk. Or playing any game while drunk. This is something I just never understood. What is it about being intoxicated that makes playing games more fun? Depends on how alcohol affects you, but for a lot of people everything becomes more fun when drunk. A friend of mine has one drink and everything she hears comes across to her as completely hilarious. Similar to how I've heard everything comes across with a deep, almost spiritual experience when on LSD.
On the other hand though this is the beauty of open source. The problem is now known so I'm sure a fix is already on the way. Of course, the problem may also have been known six months ago. Not that that differs from closed source, but I don't see the openness of the code as a particular benefit in this case. The real benefit seems to be that when someone releases something as open source and they put their name on it, they're more inclined to be responsive to problems and provide quick fixes than when it's just some company's product and the developer's reputation is shielded by the company.
That's what it looks like to me as well. It's like the old generator-based lights you would mount on your bicycle. If you add more of those generator lights, your legs don't have the power to keep up and your RPMs go down while the amount of energy you have to expend increases until finally you can't move the bicycle anymore. Short out the generators so that they produce zero volts and it doesn't suck as much power, so your RPMs go up while the amount of energy you have to expend drops.
IPv6 is a standard. IPv4 is also a standard. In this case, if one standard fails, you can gracefully fall back on another standard and try getting the job done. If I'm trying to diagnose an IPv6 problem, are you saying that when I ping an IPv6 address it should recognize a failure and transparently ping the IPv4 address instead? Unless it's part of the standard that failures in IPv6 should transparently fall back to IPv4, you are suggesting that Vista breaks the standard for the convenience of its users.
Preventing would require that those comments were unavailable (or with great difficulty). Two clicks doesn't cut it, for me. If someone with an unpopular opinion were to get downmodded enough, they would be unable to post at all: "Due to excessive bad posting from this IP or Subnet, comment posting has temporarily been disabled." I'd say disabling comments would be considered preventing posting.
i'm with you on this. I had a jeep Cherokee that insisted on locking the doors when it got over 15 mph. some way to keep car jacking down i suppose. i got so tired of being locked out of my car and not being able to find the spare key that i ended up putting one underneath the car with a magnet holder. I don't get it... do you leave your vehicle with the keys inside while it's traveling at > 15 mph? If you're taking your keys with you then how are you being locked out?
Agreed. The Chinese execute people as well as the North Koreans. It's not terribly difficult to execute someone, so their proficiency at it isn't surprising.
Ok, if you are going to be the first person to post "what do they need cellphones/computers/internet for, give them food instead" type of post in this thread, I have something to say to you. You are an idiot. Please try to understand that you are an idiot and shouldn't be posting your idiotic opinions on slashdot or anywhere else. Instead, try to improve yourself somehow, take some classes or whatever. Would you recommend they take cooking classes?
Reading from write-only registers would give you weird numbers. Then someone figured out that these numbers being read were the last byte being read at that time by the video circuitry. Using this concept, I could fill a horizontal line with an oddball text character, then run a tight loop which polls $c0x0. When it sees this special byte, it changes display modes to hires. Then it searches for another oddball character expected in a horizontal line in hires more. At that point, switch back to text mode.
The net result was a solid image with text mode up top and hires (or lores) mode at the bottom of the screen!
Now, get off my lawn! Nice effect... I wish I had played around with that. And with that, I think your lawn's bigger than mine!
I used to use the same program, except I loaded the accumulator with the contents of a zero page location whose contents were constantly changing. $C030 also constantly changes, though I never did investigate how random the results were. Doing an LDA at that location does double duty to not only give you a speaker click but also to load a random character into the accumulator.

Same here. Fortunately, once the upgrade was installed it said:

I'm feeling safer already.

What's that? Silence? The same license that you agreed to in not jaywalking across a street.
