What phone/browser? Some browsers (blackberry , opera) use a proxy for image size reduction. Android (and afaik WinMo) connect directly and therefor cannot access it.
Ok, they're Steel subway cars, that need to be stripped before they're sunk into the ocean. What is so horribly wrong with these huge steel structures that they cant be refit for continued use, or melted down to make a frame that can be.

So, if a video game depicts acts of horrific violence, It should be rated AO (The equivalent of MPAA NC-17). But a motion picture (Hostel, Hostel II, SAW 1-3, etc) should only get rated R (Equivalent of ESRB MA) for "brutal scenes of torture and violence, strong sexual content, language and drug use."
Wii Mod chips dont crack the encryption, really they dont do much of anything. They wire to the serial programming interface of the drive controller, and tell it to lie to the console about the disc's authenticity. Past that the chip shuts off and any encryption on the disc is being decoded by the console.
I suffered the same issues with USB2.0, decent transfers for 30 seconds until it stops responding and the kernel resets the bus. Dropping back to USB 1.1 worked well, but in the end i just trashed the idea of USB external devices and went with firewire. So far everything works much faster than USB and takes alot less CPU for simple file copies and other general purpose use.
This goes back on an earlier poster's comment on the controller chips being cheap crap. 100% Truth there, every usb disk device I have seen has a cheap controller completely reliant on the USB host to baby sit and spoon feed it every operation to perform (I beleive this is by spec). Firewire on the other hand does not have this issue, the controllers are intelligent and are perfectly capable of controlling data transfer on their own.
Utilizing advances in modern food synthesis, scientists at NASA began work on a germ hostile spaaaaace meeeeeeat to be used into long expeditions in deeeeeep spaaaaaaaace!
Only recently has their hard work paid off.
As even more advances in the field of spaaaace meeeeeat have been made and applied to what is now known as operation meeeeeeat.
Seeing this as a way to end their streak of being sued by angry costumers poisoned by their burgers, the Mac Meaties corporation decided to try this miraculous spaaaaace meeeeeat.
Not having access to that technology, we make ours out of napkins.
Wait a second. Doesn't US Copyright law take precedent here. Correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't all works copyrighted by default. Couldnt the obvious prior art holders sue ultracade for any usage of their name.
In a nutshell, the amount of light coming from the sun/earth/moon overwhelms the stars, to expose the film long enough to capture stars would cause everything else to be way overexposed.
I think I speak for everyone (except Indians) when I say. Outsourcing, HURRY UP AND F%&$ING DIE. I can only hope this bubble bursts soon as tech support compaints rise and software quality declines.
I work in the 'PC Repair' industry, so this article really is of no news to me, as 90% of my business is pulling this garbage, and SPYWARE out of people's systems. I ask you, slashdot, are virus writers slowly getting in bed with these spyware writing scum suckers? More and more I see systems infested with a few nice worms, especially stuff along the lines of "Trojan.Startpage", the usually nastiness (B(e)agle, Netsky,) and TONS of spyware. Is this a sign that the two are going hand-in-hand, or just a giant example of the general idiocy of users. (I'm betting on both) Spybot/Ad-Aware/AVG only go so far. How are the tech-savvy supposed to protect these people? I've even had people try to claim that ad-aware or AVG INFECTED them a second time, because it wasnt there before, and they're system was working fine aside from mass mailing their friends viruses and throwing popups in their faces.
Will we reach a point when the constant pushing of garbage in users faces will make the internet worthless to the common man?

Parent probably confused Advil with Aleve, hence the "Tylenol? Doesn't work."

This makes sense how?

Think PATA/SATA vs SCSI.
And compiz fusion waits for 8.42 since this release still lacks AIGLX and now FireGL support too.
D'oh!
For those of us who really dont care about binary blob vs FOSS when you just want drivers that work:

The release notes say it is not intended for x1900 or lower, but be sure I'll be trying it on my T41p anyway.
Compiz Fusion awaits!
This is bad, Now its only a matter of time before code like this is used to corrupt P2P networks whos primary file checking is based on md5 hashes.
WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?

Uhh. if you want to lower your contribution to carbon dioxide emissions, I'd suggest to stop breathing. Carbon Monoxide however.....
