No, you don't loose anything. Nothing what so ever is loosened if you don't agree to the NDA. The first 1000 times I saw this, fine. What is so difficult about he difference between loose and lose? Seriously people. If you want to sound interesting and informative and not an AOL OMG NFW BBQ BBL leet speaker, get at least the most common parts of the language down.
And I heard from a non-native speaking friend of mine it's only the native speakers that screw it up. Because the way they think of words in there[sic] head, loose would never accidentally come out as lose.

But if you're going to argue that it is, then you have to argue against all of them. "Well its only a trademark violation if we don't like them" isn't much of a good offense.
However with Trademarks and Copyrights if you don't defend yourself against ALL the violations (even if you 'like' them), don't you forfeit the right to do so?
Or you're like my dad. Who filled out the relevant paper work. Then got his cards AFTER the expiration date stated on them.
And since he's already filled out the paperwork he can't get new cards issued. So what then? His whole argument was "If they're going to issue them to everyone, why the hell do they have expiration dates to begin with." So now he's without a converter and without the ability to get a subsidized one.
Not too long ago, there was a small furor in the local media about a major disaster at The State's Technology Services Division. The details were a bit sketchy â" mostly because The State was "unable to comment on an ongoing investigation" â" but what was reported was that, for two full days, employees of The State were unable to logon to their computers or access email, and that this caused business within The State to grind to a halt.
As the "investigation" carried on, the media lost interest in the story and moved on to more newsworthy stories like who Paris Hilton was partying with last weekend. Fortunately for us, a certain employee of The State named J.N. works in the Technology Services Division and decided to share what really was behind those fateful days.
When employees of The State came in to work following a three day weekend, they found their workstations overloaded with "cannot logon" and "Exchange communication" error messages. The Network Services folks had it even worse: the server room was a sweltering 109 Fahrenheit and filled with dead or dying servers.
At first, everyone had assumed that the Primary A/C, the Secondary A/C, and the Tertiary A/C had all managed to fail at once. But after cycling the power, the A/Cs all fired up and brought the room back to a cool 64. At the time, the "why" wasnâ(TM)t so important: the network administrators had to figure out how to bring online the four Exchange Services, six Domain Controllers, a few Sun servers, and the entire State Tax Commissionâ(TM)s server farm. Out of all of the downed servers, those were the only ones that did not come back to life upon a restart.
They worked day and night to order new equipment, build new servers, and restore everything from back-up. Countless overtime hours and nearly two hundred thousand dollars in equipment costs later, they managed to bring everything back online. When the Exchange servers were finally restored, the following email finally made its way to everyone's inbox, conveniently answering the "why"

Re: A/C constantly running.
To whom it may concern,
I came in today (Monday) to finish up a project I was working
on before our big meeting with the State ----- Commission tomorrow,
and I noticed that there were three or four large air conditioners
running the entire time I was here. Since it's a three day weekend,
no one is around, why do we need to have the A/C running 24/7?
With all the power that all those big computers in that room use, I
doubt it is really eco-friendly to run those big units at the same
time. And all computers have cooling fans anyway, so why put the A/C
for the building in that room?
I got a keycard from [the facility managerâ(TM)s] desk and shut off the
A/C units. I'm sure you guys can deal with it being warm for an hour
or two when you come in tomorrow morning.
In the future, let's try to be a little more conscientious of our
energy usage!

As for the employee who sent it, he decided to take an early retirement.
Every single OSX app I know does that on startup. Everything in the/Library and ~/Library is done on startup. I'm not an OSX developer so I can't explain how it works. Check out TVShows.app because that sets up quite a few things (and is a very basic program).
Who says that I want it in/Applications. Maybe I want it in ~/Applications. Or at least for testing I want it on my desktop on my MBP to decide if I want to spend the money on a Mini. If I want to trash it, I drag it to the trash. It's gone.
Installers give me the heebegeebies. You don't need an installer for this type of application, don't have one. Look at 95% of the properly designed OSX apps, they don't have one. They have a DMG with a.app on it that you can drag anywhere.
I just downloaded it... The BIGGEST thing is that Plex acts like an OSX application. You download the DMG and you place it anywhere. OSXBMC comes with an installer, why in God's name does something like this need an installer? Everything should be self contained in the.app.
Second response seems to be quite a bit better with Plex vs OSXBMC.
Again. I haven't had a chance to check out the 'official' release. But the difference was Plex has had a release now for 4-5 months. This means that I could have actually run it prior to now.
Plex also incorporates Sparkle, which is the autoupdater framework for OS X. (Which would be ideal for a set top box).
CenterStage is also something that is likely to only be in Plex and not OSXBMC.
I downloaded it on my work laptop (XP) and the thing I didn't like is that it 1) changed my resolution 2) started up full screen immediately.
Someone has ported XBMC partially to the Wii. Problem is he won't release his code or his binaries. A very few people have them and say it works great (for alpha).
If you can code donate some time to the XBMC group and get it working.
What do you use to get the feeds? I currently use pytvshows. It works great, but I wasn't sure if there were any others out there. (There is TVShows.app for OSX, but development has stalled).
This group forked from XBMC a while ago. It was originally called OSXBMC but to differentiate from the 'official' OSX XBMC release they renamed to Plex.
I've played around with it for a while and it is absolutely gorgeous. Each release gets it more and more integrated with OSX. Apple remote, mouse, local file system, etc.
They've also teamed up with CenterStage to work towards a more OSX like GUI.
Currently my XBOX, bought for $75 used, is going strong. Served via the XBMC protocol running on a debian server with 2 TB of data. pytvshows and rtorrent are nearly as good as a DVR (considering I work second shift) and... There just aren't more words to describe how awesome the XBMC project is and how far it has come in the last 3 years I've used it.
I'll have to check out the other release tonight to see how it compares.
Which is why I said Slushbox. As in one of the fluid coupled devices. VW's DSG is a kickass technology that actually gets better fuel economy than a normal manual (How many of you can get do 100ms shifts)
NOx is a very very broad term. It includes NO, NO2, NO3, N2O, N2O3, and N2O4. What you linked to is caused mainly by NO2. It's been a LONG time since Chemistry but I'm sure it has something to do with free electrons and stuff. NO2 will 'stabilize' itself at NO3 with sunlight and time.
I can't find the exact paper right now but something like 90%+ of NOx coming out of a diesel is of the NO3 type. The "good" stuff. It's like pushing legislation through banning Cl and Na because independently they're not good for you. (See also: Environmental engineer's mathematics handbook
NO2 limiting would have been better for everyone in the end. I bet a suitable catalyst could have been found to do NO2 to NO3 rather cheaply compared to urea injection.
Ok. My 1998 can get 50 MPG. My friends 2003 can get 50 MPG. VW (and the rest of the germans) have made 50 MPG cars for ages and all that meet safety regulations.
Oh, the other "problem" is that it is manual transmission. Slushboxes suck up fuel economy like most people don't even believe.
As someone else pointed out if California wasn't so anal about the NOx more diesels could be let in. Most of the NOx is the 'good' kind (NO2 or NO3, I forget) and not the 'bad' kind. But somehow a 8 MPG hummer is Ok.
I once heard an argument between two people the other day about the "new" V6 some company released that only has 245 HP while some other company's V6 can get 255 HP. I drive a 90 HP turbodiesel. It tops out at around 125 MPH. Most on ramps are long enough to get me up to 80-90 MPH. We have some huge hills around here and it's one of the only I4s I've been in that can accelerate you up the hill (torque rocks).
Diesel is much quieter on the road. Where gassers are turning 3000+ rpm I'm around 2000, and at peak torque, no downshifting.
And on the subject of "safety regulations" I've heard countless people talk about buying or riding their motorcycles more in the name of 'fuel economy.' How safe are those things? Most people don't understand there can be a middle ground between an awesome MPG motorcycle and a tank of an SUV? Personally I'd take something 100x safer than a motorcycle that got me 50 MPG even if it was only slightly less safe than an SUV.
Simply put. Most of my American brethren are absolute idiots.
I'm looking at setting up a new server in my house.
Currently I have a old AMD server running debian with VMWare server on it running XP which I can Remote into to do my Windows Only stuff. (Rather than waste space on my MacBookPro with VMWare). XP is doggishly slow (It's only 1.5gHz mobile processor).
I'm looking at turning that into an OpenFiler or FreeNAS machine (it has 2TB of HD on it) and getting a newer machine to help with iPod transcoding, other processing and virtualizing XP.
What should I be looking for in processors? Stuff that supports virtualization? Multiple cores?
You were one of those kids that pointed out Santa wasn't real, how ugly 'everyone' thought someones girlfriend was.
Seinfeld didn't become the #1 show in America because it was unfunny. Neither did Friends. However I didn't particularly like Friends, but I wouldn't say it was 'un funny' just 'not my type of humor.'
I'm sure there's a regularly scheduled showing of Ow My Balls you could enjoy.
The difference is that that removes ALL history. "Porn" mode just stops recording things. If your wife/boss/kids/parents look at the history of a 'cleaned' IE or Firefox it will show no history, no cookies, nothing.
If you just turn on porn/privacy mode before doing your thing then turn it off you still have your 5 month browsing history. Cookies to login to google but nothing what you did while the session was 'on' will show up.

It was largely co-written by David and Seinfeld...

To differentiate between the two I, and everyone I know uses spaces. Takes it from one noun to a noun and adjective.
