AMC had a couple of Stoog-a-thons during the past couple holidays. I taped them, and have ensured that my kids at least will have had this vital part of their education filled out. ( they loved it! )
I agree, the copyright extentions and DMCA should be thrown out. But it is more important that Disney keep Mickey
And who has gone mad with the mod points? Why is the parent at zero? The main point is about copyright, and the parent post is talking about copyright. Its not flamebait. Wassup with this?
For an observant Jew, the shellfish issue would be a real one. For a Christian, this is no problem. 1 corinthians 10:23 thru 29. Also, there is the preface to Peter being sent out amoung non-jewish people. "Eat Peter..., no Lord, no unclean thing..." times 3, then Peter gets it. I dont rememeber the exact reference just now.
That with the PC, they are running code that I would not chose to allow to run. Code, not data. In TV land the commercial is DATA. My TV is not changed afterwards. Also, it is well known where these commercials are, they are not trying to hide from me. I go to them *if I choose*, knowing what is coming, and I am free to avoid them *if I choose*. By and large, these popups do not afford me this choice.
Make it so that web sites that have popups have a.popup TLD, so I can tell before I click the link, and you have a valid point.
Sounds to me that the RIAA wants to move consumers ( and I use that word specifically ) off of CD's and on to DVD's, where they can take away the fair use of the material due to DCMA. See, first they need to get the players out there, without canabalizing their existing base. So, they do both, wait till there are enough players for the DVD side "out there", then drop the CDs.
"Your right to wave your fists around ends at my nose". At least, I think it was him, in one of his novels. Either way, I think it applies here. ( I'm agreeing with you...:-)
Understood. I was attempting to reinforce the argument in that a re-write of the data is not needed. The machine could miscount from the very start, and there is no way to know outside of extensive code audits and security ensureing that the binary on the machine matches the code reviewed, OR as you suggest, having the machine print the ballot.
I like the print the ballot option, the issues about intent ( hanging chads ) and such are taken care of, the voter could verify that their intent was correctly captured, and the printing could be OCR'able for quick machine counting, then hand counted in the case of wanting to verify, spot check, or recount.
I like what you say, but the forgetting to charge the car the night before leading to not going somewhere will keep this from being considered, I fear.
My understanding is that it is the *kinds* of pollutants, not the amount that is at issue with diesels. Note that diesel fuel is at a different distillation "level" than gasoline ( I.E. gasoline is more "refined" ).
Unibody has been the standard, except for trucks and the CrownVic. I owned a Mustand and I currently own a CrownVic, no leaf springs. Also, both where powered by the new 4.6 liter engine, which is an overhead cam design.
Agreed about the max profit and min effort, but all the big boys are doing that, no?
If they could produce an 80 mpg diesel, I would think they would. That would trump the other manufacturers till they caught up.
Course, I did hear from a family member that was a service writer for a Ford sales blob that Ford once fired the designers of the front end components ( long long time ago, like 50's 60's or smoething like that... ) because they were not getting enough in selling replacement parts.... It could be wrong, but...
Let me be the first to welcome our extra-terretrial corporate overlords?
Company store for the oxigen. Ticket back? Gotta settle the debt, first. Boo hoo. Back to work! You owe us 17 billion. Opps, forgot the complaint handling charge, 17 billion 400 million now. Back to work before I double it! You cant go back! No it is not slavery, we dont own you. Food! Get outta station!
While Ritalin, I am sure, is overprescribed, it *does* help some people. It is not snake oil. I am a case in point for that, it helped me in my early years to get a to a point where I did not need it anymore. I am gratefull that it was available when I needed it.
I am surely for doctors not overprescribing medications. The availablity of the medications nor the safety of the medications is not the real problem.
That middle man, while he has grown a bit bulkier than strictly needed, is needed. Unrestricted, unchecked greed would bring us back ( slowly, but surely ) to the snake oil days.
The only advantage of something new would be that it might require less electricity and floor space.
They are getting more out of the system without doing more than provide it with electricity and maintainance, if that. How is that not maximizing their return?
Something for you to google for, I recall seeing something about reducing the boom by heating the air in front of the plane with lasers. The air would expand in front of the aircraft, making it less dense, and the boom less of an issue. Dont remember just where I saw it.
Perhaps this is a bit out of date, I have not read any EULA's recently, but the ones I recall all had "no fitness for any particular usage, even the one we claim it is fit for" or somesuch in the "terms".
But MS chose to use technology that requires admin priveledges to run. I think more than "some" blame attachs to MS. Granted a good deal attachs to Macrovision.
Also, one of the reasons for an OS in the first place is to *remove* the need for "all access everywhere" by providing regulated access to system resources.

What are you arguing for here? Streamlining things so that they make sense, or throwing out the regulations entirely?
And is it all regulation? For the CYA part, it seems that fear of litigation, not regulation is the prime mover here.

How about just working from home? I could do it, for the most part, but....
My understanding is that it is the *kinds* of pollutants, not the amount that is at issue with diesels. Note that diesel fuel is at a different distillation "level" than gasoline ( I.E. gasoline is more "refined" ).
How about this?
I think you mean Chevy. :-)

Who said ( in the absence of audit ) that it was written "correctly" in the first place?
if( vote for party 1 )

else if( vote for party 2 )
if( ( current_time mod 2 ) == 0 )
p2++;

How would you know?
brought you Enron? Worldcom?

I would be more worried about him taking the contacts out of my eyes!
What more could a newer system do?
The only advantage of something new would be that it might require less electricity and floor space.
They are getting more out of the system without doing more than provide it with electricity and maintainance, if that. How is that not maximizing their return?
Look up!
Sorry, it is your employer that owns that.
Isnt the robust management of the devices and particulars of the hardware the OS's responsibility?
Sounds like he found something that should be handled better and wasnt.

On "implied fitness",
Perhaps this is a bit out of date, I have not read any EULA's recently, but the ones I recall all had "no fitness for any particular usage, even the one we claim it is fit for" or somesuch in the "terms".
It is *all* about politics, it is just not as partizan as some make out. :-)
