I just did... you can too. It can be done in as little as 3 business days. No paperwork required. Just have all the indians say they will quit in the next 2 weeks. IT STILL WORKS !!
Don't let anyone fool you. If you gain physical access to a device... you will get in. These n-factor authentication schemes... may delay you... but I doubt it.
Step 1: Remove hard drive from device. Step 2: Run away really fast. Step 3: Rule the world.
Asbestos is a naturally occuring mineral. Just because something is natural, doesn't mean it won't try to kill you. Take... for instance... my dogs toot;)
I'm far above all of these numbers. I also live in a more expensive part of the country.
The numbers quoted in the article didn't seem to take any of that into account. This is mostly why I don't believe a word of it.
Further more... I've spoken w/ friends that live in less expensive parts of the country. And they seem to be at about the same salary w/ about the same experience.
Moral of the story. Negotiate your own salary.
But if you don't feel that you can. I'd be more then glad to sell you a few sheets of paper w/ over-inflated numbers on them.
"quoting one academic as recommending even well, the death penalty - as a deterrent... Let's face it, businesses are becoming more dependent on their computers"
Computers / Software / OS's were never designed for business. It's not the hackers fault. They're useing the machines as they were designed / intended.
How about the death penalty for the folks that push this digital-heroin on the masses.
Only draw-back: They do not innovate w/ new tech-ideas. They immotate what's allready out there. (Some would argue that they do a better job at immotateing then the ppl that they're immotateing.)
In that sence... I don't feel that it hurts the job market.
People who are the first to do something... generally want to reap the reward / profit.
I thought there was something wrong w/ my browser for a moment... I read the same post last night... and replied to it... then poof... it's there again... w/ fewer replies... had this been the good ol' days... I would have smacked my monitor... damn flat screen... would probably come right off of my desk.
If "they" do not want to use the internet to distribute, why does that beget the acceptance of copying the content without paying?
I wouldn't argue right/wrong legal/criminal w/ you. Clearly, the behavior is neither right nor legal. We are living in interesting times. Most people want to reamain honest. However, that being said, it's hard to remain honest when it's difficult to identify right/wrong. When it comes to music, no one had to pry the back cover off of their cd player and install new hardware to play a cd made by a friend. The issue becomes even more morally ambiguous when one considers second hand cds. If the music industry had their way you would only hold a non-transferrable liscense to listen to the music you purchased in the format that you purchased it in. This would get rid of second hand music industry and ppl would have to purchase brand new $15 cds all the time and never have the option of purchaseing someones old cd for $3. Is it wrong to buy that old cd? RIAA doesn't want you to be able to. But is it a fair use issue? If you don't like it you I suppose you can remove yourself from listening to music all together. Perhaps remove yourself from society all together. After all you did purchase a cd from a corporation. You need to adhear to the rules they set out under the EULA. Did you read the fine print though? They said that by listening to this music you agree that slavery is a great idea and will slave yourself out for two weekends a month to maintain your liscense. Extreme example of corporation going off the deep end. But what I'm trying to illustrate is that just because one forms a corporation and sells a product doesn't mean that they're now a soverign country that gets to tell you what right/wrong is.
In summary... Steeling wrong. RIAA/MPAA not my moral compass.
"We're going to bypass what the music industry had to come up with, and that's to get ahead of the whole piracy thing,"
Agreed. This is the right attitude to have. But they should have had it a long time ago. I don't know how one gets ahead of piracy this late in the game.
Thanks so much for shareing it. When I read the origional article...
I came away wondering if it was / wasn't cheating the ISP by intentionally shareing an internet connection. On the one hand a cable company could argue that you can't share your cable w/ a neighbor. Why should you be able to share your internet service? But on the other hand... how do they charge folks that sponser WiFi hotspots? There in lies the real answer to the question. What if an apartment complex supplied a WiFi hotspot to a unit. What would the be charged by cable / ISP providers? I wonder how labor intensive it would be to identify folks that were shareing their internet service. The real problem is that there is little to physically keep people from engaging in the activity. This makes it harder for people to recognize that they are doing something wrong. If one had to pry the back off of their ISP provided router and subsequently add some sort of hardware modification; it would be much easier for the average joe to realize that they were doing something wrong. Honest people like to remain honest; by and large. It's not like they broke a window and routed around your underwear drawer after all;)
In the States... Whatever you do w/ your own property... Not a problem... As long as you don't... lie... cheat... steal... or share your work w/ anyone else... no problem.
But from the story... it seems like the person wasn't... trying to further his own research... but instead... stole... and stole for profit.
"there are now fewer 'important technological developments per billion people'"
Should we blame over-population... and the capitalistic-tyranny... that has created a generation of have-nots ??
note: I didn't say republican-tyranny... nor did I say conservative-tyranny. By and large... I wouldn't associate either of these 100% w/ capitalism.
note: Capitalism is what makes someone total a car w/ a small amount of body dammage. (wasteful) A conservative would fix the car themselves, possibly put it up on blocks in the backyard 'till they need to use it for spare parts.
note: Republicans... I couldn't even tell you what these people are about these days. So I won't even guess at what their adjenda is. I used to think they wanted government out of our lives. As of late, I'm beginning to think that they want government in everyone else's life. Perhaps this is to win the, so called, culture war. If that's the case... Isn't that same adjenda as the Liberal-Democrat? So the Republicans... They're just confused.
They will probably be based on digital ink... Won't it be fun when they get hacked... And all of those delightful popups begin to display on the horizon;)

They'll get here and the planet will be a big ball of water.
I like my wireless / usb / microsoft mouse. ... the suck ass.
It's tooth fits into the bottom of the mouse when not in use.
It rocks.
And cords.

I think the penalty for this sort of behavior needs to be higher. Keep people from thinking there's any benefit to trying to be "clever".
Burning at the stake comes to mind.
I was showing the pictures to my wife ...
... come on ... it's not like it's even a "nice" kitchen.
Her first response was exactly the same as yours.
I mean

Is it only a problem if I have my cell phone against my head? How will I fair w/ my wireless hands-free?

I was thinking the same thing
Isn't a google toolbar pretty much a built in feature of Firefox.
Interesting research,
...
... how do they charge folks that sponser WiFi hotspots? There in lies the real answer to the question. What if an apartment complex supplied a WiFi hotspot to a unit.

They're just confused.
I know what the word Ubiquitous means.
I know what the word Computing means.
