Not quite. Just install lilo password, set up BIOS to boot hdd only, add BIOS password and install a really good lock on the case (plus thread a metal string through all devices) so they can't open it to reset BIOS. The worst they can do is DoS your computer by powering it off or try to damage the filesystem (same way). Your data remains confidential as long as the case is closed (and I assure you, you can spend hours and hours in front of a "login:" prompt and achieve nothing if you don't know the password. It's easier to hack through the net than from console without login) and it's old anti-thievery security devices that will assure the data won't be compromised. For example, there's just enough room inside a PC to safely fit a claymore mine.
HEY! TweakUI just makes it slightly easier. It's some built-in components of Windows that let you do it! Means, Windows is illegal and RIAA and MPAA should sue Microsoft for releasing such copyright circumvention software!
...yet, how do I change the default action on "autoplay" drives from "autoplay" to "open". I insert a CD, autostart doesn't launch thanks to TweakUI, then I forget not to doubleclick on the drive icon and instead of picking "open" from context menu I get autostart launched. Happens WAY too often.
Windows "out of the box" is as wide open as the goatse.cx guy. Linux by default usually has some tiny backdoors (say, unpassworded LILO) and is generally hard to break into. Now assume, breaking into the system using self-sustaining program (like virus - you deploy and it proceeds on its own, without "external help") is quite a bit harder than breaking in "manually" (i.e. trying diferent exploits, snooping, spoofing etc). If Linux is so much harder to break in manually, it's just as much harder to spread viruses. Plus the "flavour" factor. If there were as many as different "windows distributions" and windows was as customizable as Linux, the viruses would have much harder time to find "exploitable system". Now, when we are past the political differences, we may consider how "technically" harder is it to write Linux viruses.
I find "gel pens" very nice, but there are ballpens from Pilot with addition of oil that I found best. But when I have to scratch a note really quickly, usually there's nothing to write around and it all boils to:
More importantly, can these P2P services lure enough people away from restriction free Kazaa to make themselves successful, where P2P networks rely on a large user base?"
Yes, if RIAA is successful in its campaign and all "illegal" p2p networks are banned. Only the "legal" ones will be left, though surely not as successful or widely used as today's "illegal" top.
If they could catch you at your most inconvenient time, they would. In fact, if they could tell without having to call that you were not interested, they would not make the call.
Isn't that what the do-not-call list is made for? They could tell beforehand that you don't want them to call. But they insist they want to call you despite that and rule the list illegal. So, you're plainly wrong here.
"If a chance of failure of one element in the device is one to billion, in a device with a billion components something HAS TO fail."
KISS, the more complex it is, the more it will cost. Reentry and horizontal landing cost fortune in development cost, fuel, payload capacity and quite a few other domains. Carrying all the life support space and devices on flights that could be perfectly performed by unmanned devices is plain stupid.
Must range from person to person. I know some wise people who smoke and aren't affected at all. If I smoke I get very dull and stupid, can't solve tasks that would take me a minute before, good insightful imagination is broken for about a week... But it's not "toxic" as such, the effect is temporary, passes without permanent effects.
Theoretically - very good. Practically - spammers would keep doing what they do now, and one month you'd see you have to pay $1000 because several million emails have been sent from your account.
And as such, it's outlawed. As mostly everything. (you can throw it - it's a projectile. It contains chemical substance - air.) Did you notice car engines are illegal?
So... Say, under this term, say, a pillow is a destructive device.
I can throw it, so it's a projectile. It also contains "any other chemical substance." (EVERYTHING is made of certain chemical substances)
"or any launching device therefor." - say, like, your hands? You can throw stuff. Well, you can be accused of carrying your tool of rape all the time with you too.
"and is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade." like ebay?
"Any rocket, rocket-propelled projectile, or similar device of a diameter greater than 0.60 inch" - hmm, tight restriction on firework. BTW, wooden sticks are forbidden by law.
"Any breakable container which contains a flammable liquid with a flashpoint of 150 degrees Fahrenheit or less and has a wick or similar device capable of being ignited." - wow. Say, a deodorant. The dispenser is rarely not flammable.
Any sealed device containing dry ice (CO2) or other chemically reactive substances assembled for the purpose of causing an explosion by a chemical reaction. Like your car engine in which gasoline explodes many times a second.
You live in a country of freedom and your government is very wise.
Ok, I'm ignorant. What causes less asteroids coming from direction of the Sun than from "the outside"? the Sun's gravity may pull some into Sun's surface, but that's one really small "volume" of our solar system. The rest will turn around Sun on their elipse orbits, changing their routes, but that in no way causes that their route AFTER being changed won't lead close to Earth. (should be about the same number that "deflected" won't pass by Earth, as ones that get near earth right due to the same deflection).
What I can think of, is that far less people observe the day side of the sky. Most astronomers work at night, and if they want to see something "on the other side" they just wait half a year... Most astronomical objects coming from direction of the Sun simply can't be observed, as there's far less telescopes that can observe the sky during the day.
It's still a pain. I hate when my character can't step over a fence that reaches to its knees, crawl through a hole where you don't fit while crouching, can't knock out the enemy, tie him up and explain the misunderstanding without killing, break any (arbitrary) wall with explosives or pickaxe (loved that in Moria) or use anything not available in the game engine.
Rocketjump was pretty much a bug. (I'm pretty sure nobody at ID thought to implement it as a feature. It became one much later)
Normally Americans had to go to cinema, screen the movie and other countries could have it... Now finally it will leak a week before release through some 3rd world country and FINALLY americans will be able to see it before it's released and it will be the others who contribute:)
When was that? I have a vinyl record with a ZX Spectrum program (saved after the songs, as last track) with a quiz about the band featuring in the record. (would have to dig it up to remember the name). Was recorded somewhere mid-80's.
1) Set up a "trade site" anonymously. Very anonymously. 2) Get your hands on a spammer's mailing lists. 3) Send out several millons of spam with "new better penis enlargement" or some other viagra. 4) Receive all the offers. Even don't bill them, just send out the product. TRICKY PART: Don't send any viagra or other penis enlargers, send out cyanide or some other really lethal poison. 5) Run, wipe all your tracks before your mail reaches its destinations. Leave the "spamming server" with a note on the harddrive for the police to find: "These idiots deserved to die. As long as anyone answers to spam, such 'accidents' will happen. This is not our last action". Take care that it gets to the news.

Didn't pass with teletypes, won't pass with keyboards. Must be left with capslock firmly ON. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to write correctly "GOD".

adding obligatory header "x-spoofed-from" to email headers? Just like the new "evil bit" in TCP...
Means the list signing mechanism should be fixed, list remade, not cancelled.

Fear is a powerful weapon.
In that manner, you destroy the P2P networks at much faster rate than any RIAA/MPAA or other officials. Fucking leech.
