Not necessarily. You still have medicare, medicaid, HMO's, etc, but those are for insurance. I'm sure there has to be some better group to test it such as the organization that tests vehicle safety.
The wheelchair rides around on 2 wheels like the segway as seen in this article. Since this is designed for disabled people, would it be able to keep its balance when a person with constant siezures was placed in it? Even when the wheelchair climbed stairs?
Once the RPC/DCOM vulnerability is released and a worm spreads rapidly through the internet, Microsoft announces it will no longer work on the email client it bundles with its own operating systems. "Microsoft executives are hoping those users will now switch to the full-blown Outlook client (and pay for an Office licence in the process)."
I guess Microsoft isn't taking the joke in the WinBlast virus too seriously. "billy gates why do you make this possible? Stop making money and fix your software!!"
But if the RIAA condemned only the "guilty" and didn't make stupid mistakes caused by their automated scanning systems, it still would not be okay to demand ludicrous sums of money from music sharers in court.
Back during the days of prohibition, bootlegging was a huge industry. Sure it was "legally" incorrect but did that stop them? Nope. Gangsters made tons of money and often killed those who got in the way. I wonder if the mafia somehow got involved with the whole DMCA bit if the RIAA would cower away in fear or use it as yet another excuse to imprison random Kazaa users.
So you finish browsing slashdot, go to the bathroom and do your business. Your leave your wifi toiletseat up which makes your wifi alarm clock go off which wakes up your wife who gets angry at you and makes you go put the seat down.
Your neighbor aims his pringles can at your home, starts up your electric toothbrush, turns on your living room tv, and starts printing random junk on your printer.
Let's hope alarm system remotes don't include wifi as well!
Unless the judge is an actual geek who really understands what's going on more than finger pointing and worthless patents and whatnot, we might see the big corporations using the laws to force their ways upon others, see: RIAA
I hope I get called in for jury duty on this one. "Down with SCO! What were your arguements again? Eh, they don't matter." I've already made my decision on this case.
Thats a pretty lame setup. You spend $350 on a power drill just for the case. Then put in a crappy laptop. Great setup..
"Wireless wardrving" you say? As opposed to maybe wired wardriving? "haha! I've plugged my cat5 cable into your network and I see all your computers! I'm so cool! Now let me run away stealthily!"
4 feet? I'm sure someone will come up with a pringles can (hopefully w/o an RFID chip) and bring a new meaning to wardriving. If not, we'll be in much better shape.
If a company offered a computer without an operating system, chances are they would not offer tech support with an "unauthorized" OS such as XP, Linux, etc.
This would make their job easier since it's less for them to handle after the purchase, but they would make less money since service and support is usually factored into the cost of the computer.
If you're running Kazaa with this setup, all the decryption would be done before the files ever left your computer. What good would it do other people if your files were still encrypted and they could not open the files? You wouldn't want to pull another BuyMusic.com afterall.
If the police showed up while your computer was off and unused (however often that may be) and you had your key hidden, a judge could simply order you to present it.
Of course, the vast majority of law enforcement would simply confiscate the computer without a thought of secure ide. Only when they tried to boot or start extracting data would they notice something wrong.
The record industry has seen CD sales slump for three years, a decline it blames on online file-sharing sites where music can be traded freely and sometimes before it is even released.
But of course the economy has _nothing_ to do with the fact that people have less money to spend. Therefore, they are spending their money more on the necessities such as food and housing.
I forget the exact numbers but numbers have shown that the music industry has in fact been doing better than the rest of the economy as a whole. If everyone else was doing as well as them, we might bee in good shape!
If youre going to take organs from people sentenced to death, you can probably assume that these people aren't the "cleanest" people out there, ie. drugs, alcohol, smoking, etc. But if they are healthy, by all means go ahead.

Since when does the Food and Drug Administration have to approve advanced wheelchairs? Maybe if it was a big vitamin wheelchair.

Yep, they definitely put effort into it. Search for 'search engine' on Google and you'll see someone other than Google on top interestingly enough.

With the exploit code so freely available, link 1, link 2, I wouldn't be too surprised to see mutations out. It was released nearly a month ago.

If only these had been around for the Hindenburg. "WARNING: Our sensors have detected tons of highly flammable Hydrogen gas."

At least he can't possibly be worse than Hillary Rosen. Hey let's hope not. But don't jinx it!
Let's hope they don't pull an Enron and start all of the sudden shredding all their old logs.
Is there that much data? Only if they store data as MS Word docs instead of text files or some compressed format.
Actually, I think they were doing pretty bad for a while but later secured more funding and now they're alright.

Actually, I believe it is standardized to certain range rather than a specific height.
I'd love to see an application of this combined with wardriving. Warballooning perhaps?
And it's obviously much smaller. I wonder how it would do in a crash test. It looks like a dense bullet compared to other cars.
