They are merely reciting all of the different types of cheese they have eaten in their lifetime. This is why more mature male mice have better songs (more cheese-eating opportunities).:)
What are they going to do? Mass packets at the border routers and run network simulations in an attempt to scare the US?
Fragment the internet? Yeah, right. Goverments cater to business interests and there's no way said business interests will sit idly while their governments screw with the business's bottom lines.
This is much ado about nothing.
Oh, and somebody needs to tell Zonk that the defintion of "slashdotted" does not mean 'previously appearing on slashdot'.
If you run the IT department, you need to market the IT department. Things like What We've Done For You Lately; Ways We're Making The Company More Profitable; etc... If you come from the frame of mind that IT should be invisible until there's a crisis, then when things get tough, the Finance guys are going to look at that big department that spends a ton of money and say, "Just what exactly do these guys do?"
If you market the IT department and prove its value to the company, raises are much easier to come by. Been there, done that, a number of times.
Typical american-zealot bullshit. It's either "the right american way" or "the evil horned trolls of the commie reds way!"
Considering that three of the biggest proponents are China, Iran & Cuba, I'd say there's some valid cause for concern. Granted Iran is not a Communist country, but it's not exactly a place that encourages any sort of free and open expression of ideas.
If I've told you once, I've told you a billion times to not exaggerate.
I think millions and millions is really overstating it. Sure, everybody in the/. community knows about it. That does not consitute millions and millions.
Most companies take some litigation prevention steps like verbal & written warnings, performance improvement plans, etc... At the end of the day, if they want to fire your butt, you're gone anyway, but, speaking as a PHB, it's a lot of work. In some companies, especially larger, profitable ones, it can be so much work, it's almost as if they want you to keep the dead wood.

If you're upgrading, chances are the HDD is fine too, and you probably already have a CD/DVD drive, both of which are purchased in the article.
Did you forget something? Are you sure? Uh, the case?
Is that the one across the bay from Berkly?
saying that he was going to lift up my tight leather miniskirt and spank my because I was a bad girl. (hint: I am male)
Not a fvcking thing. I guess some people flaunt it in the same way that guys making up for some shortcoming buy Corvettes, Porsches, and Vipers.
$500? Sure, it would go a long way toward getting rid of cybersquatters.

Considering that the average lightbulb creates more heat than light...
Kind of like most slashdotters!
Waterloo might have turned out differently. But he didn't. And Sweden didn't. Arguing hypotheticals is nothing more than mental masturbation.

It is lost on me why that doesn't bother people. It sure bothers me.
If you want to say "Made for iPod", pay the money. If you don't, then say something else.
That seems to never get addressed.

Let's see. I've been hearing that in one form or another since 1983.
or a slashdotter who doesn't know his ass from a... never mind
Here, let me lend you a clue. Try a reverse lookup on the IP
My kingdom for mod points. Finally somebody who understands that this is another issue that will decided by what's good for commerce.
if the US doesn't want to give it up? Airdrop a bunch of guys in robin-egg-blue helmets into ICANN?
Just like newspapers and tv. That's the business model. The content is there only to get you to look at the ads.
I think you'll find that, for the most part, there's a pretty big gap between "can" and "will"
