Uploading was ruled legal in a later decision. The judge equated it to putting a photocopier in a library. Just because you put the material in your shared folder doesn't mean you are actively distributing it.
What I want to know is why this guy gave his ISP his Social Security Number? lol. You know you only have to give that number to your bank and the IRS right?
WTF are you on about? Geeks don't smoke. They don't drink. That's why they're geeks. If they smoked and drank in high school they'd have been cool. Geeks are total straight edge. How can you maintain your GPA if you get high? Dumbass.
But who cares why Company X follows privacy legislation as long as they do? Their motives don't even enter into it for the average consumer. Basically this Star article which isn't about compliance but about the motivation behind the compliance is a bunch of bullshit and non-news.
Mitnick had a neat suggestion in the Art of Deception. The Consonant-Vowel Method. It provides an easy to remember password because it is pronounceable. You take the following template and swap in consonants and vowels: CVCVCVCV. The examples he gave are MIXOCASO and CUSOJENA. The point is they won't be in the dictionary but you can remember these nonsense words.

Please. How long did it take for the robots up there now to pick up a bloody rock or to even get off the landing vehicle? In the time it took a machine to roll 10 feet I would have been able to pick up sacks of rocks and dig a hole 6 feet deep.
As for the article, why bother designing the suits now? I'm sure that in 20 years there will be materials that will be much more advanced that we'll want to use instead.
But why does Sony want sony.org?.org was supposed to designate a not-for-profit group. Seems to me that if registrars only registered domains as per the orginal vision:.com for commercial,.org for not-for-profit,.net for network admin, etc. everything would work out pretty well.
What are you on about? When a Canadian is asked for his height he replies in feet and inches and when asked for his weight replies in pounds and it has nothing to do with "the large amount of trade between Canada and the US." A real Canadian would know that he orders meat in pounds, expresses temperature in F, indicates lengths in yards, feet, and inches, buys fish tanks measured in gallons, and uses letter sized paper. Get off your high horse and take a look around at what's really happening in Canada: We like Imperial units and even though the government has switched to metric the people absolutely have not.
But... What do you Americans do? Do you have half-Legal and double-Legal? Or do you have to stick with a few, non-compatible sizes?
I use tabloid. Better yet, use a custom page size and charge the client extra for the cuts. Stupid wanker. BTW, I'm Canadian and will hold onto my Imperial paper sizes until you pry them from my cold dead hands. God save the Queen and her letter sized paper!
Today's keyboard, telephone keypads, ATM machines and even door locks have a rubber membrane underneath the keys.
My Model M doesn't have a rubber membrane so I'm not worried. Then again you don't need a microphone to hear me typing on it. My neighbours can hear me typing. If someone were to stick a microphone up to it I'd be interested to know how much of their hearing they'd retain.
There's something similiar in Canada called Dexit. But it's not a credit card. It's a type of debit card with a $100 limit so if you lose it or anything you're not really out all that much. You can refill it anytime online, over the phone, or automatically from your account. It's used for fast food, candy, newspapers, whatever.
If they have severe social anxiety then how do they deal when the delivery man comes to their door? Do they leave the cash under the mat and e-mail the store a message saying leave the pizza on the porch? Your whole story is kind of fishy brother.
The government just can't win. I'm not saying this student is a bomber or was planning to shoot up the school but just for argument's sake let's say he was. He gets information on the tunnels and places a bomb in them. The bombs go off and the school blows up. Then the FBI discovers that the student requested information on the tunnels but no one flagged it as unusual. What happens next? All the newspapers are filled with stories about how the FBI are incompetent. I mean look at the inquiry going on now regarding 9/11. Remember Columbine? The sheriff's department there were villified for "not seeing the warning signs." So what kind of solution do you propose? Personally, I don't have a problem with the FBI simply talking to this guy just to clear the situation up before anything happens.

According to Snopes you're a damn liar.
Not millenium.

Consider yourself corrected.

Not true. The first time 'blockbuster' was used was to describe the hysteria surrounding Jaws. Click here.
Quark on a Mac. End of argument and end of this stupid thread. Last one out, get the lights.
I've got news for you: a robot can't "consider". It is just a machine built by a man. Sorry.
It's called a CD single. Look into it.
lol. Beautiful stuff. Oh shit, you're being modded Informative. Even funnier! Kudos to you sir.

Why is this a troll? Ad Muncher 4.5 does this. You can set it to display alternate text or no text at all. I haven't seen a Google text ad in months.

They get lint in the aperature or on the lens?
If you're unhappy about snipers then you must not be entering your maximum bid like you're supposed too. If you do that, then you can't be sniped.
Jet Grind Radio for the DC was pretty damned hard. I beat it but only after destroying a controller or two.
