I was showing my gf this site. I showed her one, told her it was pink. She said"Of course. all nebulae are pink"
"Set Course for the nebulae" I started zooming in. "But captain, our shields will be useless!" She almost peed herself.
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.
What does this have to do with online privacy?
This is part of Canadian law.
Now, if there is an issue that happens becuse someone gets arrested improperly, I am sure that happens everywhere. It is easy to manufacture evidence.
Look at what the states, have bben doing. Look out gitmo, here i come!
mmm nice troll...:)
Anyways. Its just nice that there is something there to protect you consumer vs. BIG UGLY GORILLA(of your choice). Instead of the usual way in the states, when you feel your rights being violated, but the US Constitution dosen't mean anything. Especially when you let them take things away piecemeal.
I am assuming this will hit the flametard mods.:)
However, as being a Canadian, who feels reasonably well informed. I also did read the article, it did make sense.
The laws are there to make for disclosure. Which according to many on this site, and others is a good thing. How many times is the battle cry 'how come they didn't open up this standard '.
I would rather have this sort of law pushed internationally instead of that dread dmca, as well as many other entertainment industry issues, as well as setting international trade policies.
At least this law is for the people.
This is the same law that people are using to smack Bell with. Many people seemed to think that was also a good thing. In fact I believe that CPPIC was the same group that also lobbied the crtc with CAIP.
I also for one would be using this law if I found out that some company decided to loose my credit card information. I think a few million dollars would do nicely to appease my pain and suffering.
The US doesn't block that kind of things because a lot of your former companies are now owned by the Japanese and others. How about when the United Arab Emerits tried to take over your port security.
Amazing how that was killed.
I think part of the issue was because it weas being sold to Lockheed martin.
Its hard to blame us, when you take eveything away.
The deal here in Hoser-Ville, is that the ISP's lease the bandwidth from Bell. They also pay around 20$ per user to bell.
So I dont see how bell is loosing out here at all. If the independant wants more, they pay for it.
It really dosent make any sense.
'Thats why I dont sign my doner card. When you get into an accident and the abulance comes, and they see you have that card. Do you honestly think they are there to help you?? Hell no, they are looking for spare parts.'
Or even better.
knock.knock: Door opens. "Yes, can I help you??"
'Are yu such and such'
'Yes I am'.
"We're here for you liver.";)
Exactly. I think that even here on Slashdot, there was a interview with Linus 9the man himself).
Thats preatty much what he said. Why would he want to spend time messing around, with the system, when he can spend that time working. I think it was Ubuntu, or Fedora that he is on.
How do you think we get power? Its all mechanical.
All you are doing is translating the power from the water, (Niagara Falls, Hoover Dam), and turning it into something that you can use at your house.
Even Nuclear and coal, use water, in the form of steam, to turn the generators. Whole lot of mechanical energy there. I think only form of non-mechanical energy would be solar. Even wind is based on the motion of the ocean.
I knew someone that had o2 box on her desk at work. That was a long time ago.
I also think that if they are looking at new markets, as they seem to be in chpt11(?). It would make sense.
As long as it is competitive.

Does your fridge run Linux??
Osram is doing that as well. It is claiming that it will release around 50-60w equilavent(if memerory serves me well). Google osram, superbright LED.
Maybe a couple of beowulf clusters.

Too bad I dont have mod points. Thats funnny!
I think it was meant to be funny.
Does your rock run Linux?
Just like the Nike's, with the LED that flashed every time you step.

Does that mean that you can cash in the phat insurance check??
But that's not the point. The point is that he had something that he attached value too. And he wanted it back. Microsoft should have complied.
Thats because no-one can get a conviction in California. Look at Oj, and Micheal Jackson, I am sure there are a few more.

Wouldn't breaking the encryption be a violation of the dmca?? I think that would be sweet.

Did they ever try to produce a graphics card?? It would have made sense.
