It would be better if they took those CDs and built a wall around AOL HQ. Hopefully, it would stop the crap from getting out and infecting the rest of the world.
Really, if frivilous lawsuits caused people to fear for their lives, something is wrong witht his world.
Shouldn't they? If people brought up frivilous lawsuits and suddently found themselves staring down the barrel of a gun...I'm sure they would reconsider abusing the law.
Maybe death is a bit extreme, but frivilous lawsuits shouldn't just be shrugged off. We ALL pay for them, one way or another.
The hard drive spins for a brief period of time to load the next song into the iPods 32MB memory. From there, all reads are done from the 32MB RAM.
The iPod also attempts to cache the next and previous songs if enough RAM exsists. If you hit the next song button really quickly you can hear the hard drive spin up and locate the song.
If your parents are poor you're going to have a crappy job at some point in your life. Case in point...I have an IQ in the high 140's. A couple of days ago I was pushing carts at Target.
If I were rich, I could have my parents lawyers help me patent my many inventions and continue to sit atop my pile of cash.
I am considering providing various parts of my relativley small town (16,000) with free WiFi. The only thing stopping me right now is time. Start a website devoted to the project.
A disruption tolerant internet would be great...but at what point do we allow critical applications to communicate over such a system? In reference to a recent article on VoIP 911 service...I wouldn't trust that critcal line of communication if it failed as often as my DSL connection.
So you mean to tell me you would put a price on your wife and kids, family, dignity?
While your comment doesn't address the actual convict...the convict was redirecting people who typed in toy sites wrong to porn sites. I'd say he's not of high moral character.
Just what operations are they moving to open source? Is this the standard day to day operating tasks such as word processing and spreadsheets, or are they writing custom software?
I seriously wonder how long before we have another civil war. There is already civil unrest. We have it too good right now to take up arms...but I wonder if it will happen within my lifetime.
Mass protests have done nothing to stop the war in Iraq...what would it take?
I know a couple of people who have turned down interacting with real people and instead stayed home to play the Sims.
I can't wait till they have a game that simulates watching TV. You get to see your character sit on the couch and watch TV. I bet it would be a smash hit.
I love how they start out, "I'm not a rich big wig...I'm an everyday joe"
Guess what...that everyday joe gets paid just as much as if you pirate the movie or don't...It's not like he's on a profit sharing plan. Pirating screws over the people who actually make money off the movies. The guy in the anti piracy commercial could care less how many times you copy the movie, so long as his check clears.
Flamebait perhaps, but how about putting the solider in a situation worth fighting for? Today, if they sent me to Iraq I'd be pissed because there's no reason for me to be there. If I were this age, 50 years ago I'd, willinly, be one of the first on the beaches at Normandy. It was a cause worth fighting, and going five days without food for.
In my limited understanding of the case, I would side with the woman. However, I believe this can be solved with the facts.
Sure, but the RIAA will fight dirty. Moral right and legal right are two different things. The RIAA could be killing puppies with hammers just for the pleasure of it. If there is no law against it...there's not much we can do.
Have you considering meeting with the heads of the school to tell them just how much of a problem this is?
You would be surprised at how responsive they can be. They typically don't know anything about technology (that's why they hire other people to do that stuff)
Explain to them that while their solution is good, it falls short on what the university should strive to provide. Tell them that universaly WiFi access helps their current students and increases their attractivness to potential students.
Am I the only one who titles my responses?

Cell-Phone Wars
·
· Score: 1
As I pointed out, we survived for hundreds of thousands of years before even the telephone, nevermind cell phones, came into existance.
We also survived before medicine. Ban the medicine! It's of the devil!
Simple solution to the annoying cell phone user, one that I'm quite fond of and have employed myself.
Tell them they are being rude, when they ignore you...
Go up to them, grab the phone out of their hands
Throw the phone as far as possible
Punch the caller in the stomach
Tell them to remember and learn from this incident.
It works great! For an added bonus, make sure they have a girlfriend present so they can be humilated in front of a loved one.

Deus Ex improved on the original in many ways. It had its weaknesses but it wan't that bad of a game.
The general populous uses Microsoft products, if those products prohibit you from looking at alternatives...well...that's a big damn problem.

He used the word "affect" properly if he meant emotional effect.

I don't watch much TV, so my opinon is skewed...but it was crap. However, it doesn't make much sense to cancel a show whose ratings are on the rise.
I would pay for Desert Combat just because I like it so much.
