So is it really the intangible property that weirds people out? Or the fact that the general media has no damn clue how online games work?
Thats it exactly. A guy can pay 6 figures for a $5 ball because some rich athlete hit it with a stick and then scrawled his name across it, but I pay $10 a month to fly around in virtual spaceship and I'm the loser.
Sounds like a logistics nightmare to me. Does my company based in Mexicao then have to cough up sales tax to every state for every customer that state is in?
I actually looked up Fiengold's record to poke some holes in your theory and was remarkably suprised. The man actually has a voting record I can agree with.
what a jip. These protesters take the time ane effort to get naked to protest they're very valuable cause and the media can't be bothered to show all that nudity?
I'm tired of the media censoring public opinion. Down with !
I don't bother. I've got 3 levels of password security.
Low level has 3 different passwords I use.
Intermediate level has 3.
High has a unique for each account but I only have abour 4 accounts that qualify as high
so at any given time I need to remember about 10 diferent passwords, which aint that hard. High level passwords get changed every few months. Intermediate about once a year. Low I couldn't give a shit.
Well its been duplicated. But its not really cold fusion.
" The current cold fusion apparatus still takes much more energy to start up than you get back out, and it may never end up breaking even. In the mean time, the crystal-fusion device might be used as a compact source of neutrons and X-rays, something that could turn out to be useful making small scanning machines."
:( and here I was all ready to make my own cold fusion car...
Instead of hate it and wish it gone, why not work towards this new technology with hopes to use it with fewer worries?
It won't happen. The larger and more established and industry gets the less willing they to change from whatever strategy they think works for them even when it isn't working anymore. Shit, look how long it took Blockbuster to adopt a subcription model while Netflix and the other online movie rental shops were kicking their ass.
well the vibration feature already makes it a decent "sexual aid" so I suppose that not such a long shot.
They do need to make it self cleaning at some point. It bad enough when the guy next to you have Cheetos stains on his cell...

"You hear less and less about the digital Pearl Harbor," said Dennis McGrath, who has helped run three similar exercises for the Institute for Security Technology Studies at Dartmouth College. "What people call cyberterrorism, it's just not at the top of the list."
We finally get rid of one useless buzzword and this idiot wants to bring it back.
The funniest thing about this is that from the sounds of it the whole thing is being run by CIA goons. I'm no "info-warrior" but seems kind of pointless to run a war-game with people whose tricks you already know. Wouldn't it be far more realistic if they setup a network and put out the word to John Q. Hacker that is open season.
Grado sr-60 Headphones. Best headphones under $100 for atleast a decade now. Made in Brooklyn. If you've got a lot of dough you can pick up a lot of hand-made AV components. Although most of the electronics contained therein problems comes from Asia.
thats my point exactly. I see kids at my school with five or six of em in different colors. I'll bet good money that the Lance Armstrong Foundation isn't seeing any of that money.
It might have meant something at some point, but like American flags in NYC right after 911, its been reduced to a fashion statement.
a few. Fortress has the device in the stomach. There's another I cant remember right at the moment where you neck thing is tied to another unknown inmate so if you try to escape it kills the other person. That way the prisoners wind up guarding each other.
my thoughts exactly. The problem I see with this is that the guards are going to start relying on it too much. Here's a bunch of guys with literally nothing else to do all day but find ways to exploit the system.
I'll bet it gets pushed into wide use. The prison system is a booming business.

just like at Genentech. Genentech employees have blue, contractors have red.

How does that work?

ok. I must have misread it. Faith restored!
Shit! Add that to all the money Osama is getting from all the weed I buy and I can understand why the gov cant find him in Iraq.
He's proably got enough cash to buy his own pocket Universe.
Oh no wait. He supported the war in Iraq.
So close...

Show us the nudity!
My whole system was running like a greased skillet until you mentioned that.
Now I can't remember a damn thing...
Low level has 3 different passwords I use.
Intermediate level has 3.
High has a unique for each account but I only have abour 4 accounts that qualify as high
so at any given time I need to remember about 10 diferent passwords, which aint that hard. High level passwords get changed every few months. Intermediate about once a year. Low I couldn't give a shit.
Its worked for me so far.

That would rule.

You aint kidding. Take walk over to Empornium and check out the Homemade section. Revenge porn is a booming sector.

And not a very good one.
