Most that work with browser issues on a daily basis considered IE6 dead and IE7 a spasm.
I'm a web developer/designer and work with browsers on a daily basis. The sites I work on aren't extremely complicated, but their layouts aren't trivial either. I often develop against IE7 and Firefox as a starting point, but then also do cross browser compatibility checks back with IE6. Often there are tweaks that have to be made to "standards compliant" code to get things to appear correctly in IE6. Why do I do this? Because the people that pay my company's bills require it because their customers, the ones who actually will view the sites, still use it. Checking at a fewdifferentsites, it appears that IE6 and IE7 is used far more then you might imagine. Sure if your site involves debugging the Linux kernel source code IE support probably isn't paramount to your visitors. But to the general public accessing a bank, consumer goods, or public service type of site, IE6 support is still very much needed as is IE7.
AquaDots were a kids "toy"/craft that was sold on TV as well as in stores. They were little spheres about the size of a bath bead that when arranged next to each other and misted with water, they stuck to each other. A month or two ago it was revealed that the Chinese manufacturer had substituted some of the ingredients and one of them, when ingested, metabolized into Gamma Hydroxybutyric Acid or GBH, a date rape drug that one of the side affects is memory loss.
There is no hinges with the facts in the case. Both sides agree that there was a written purchase agreement that explicitly stated what assets did or did not transfer. The only thing left up in the air was SCO's claim that there was a non-written down transfer of assets as well that superseded the written agreement. SCO could not present a single piece of evidence to back up it's claim so the judge summarily ruled on the only legal evidence that was allowable, the original purchase agreement and amendments.
It's not that hard. Trial and error could have came up with it. What the Conquistadors saw was the last attempt that was successful for the Incans. What they didn't see was the dozens of past attempts and the unfortunate victims 150 feet below.
He means modal, as in the dialog box has exclusive focus and you can't do anything else with the application outside of that box. You can move the dialog box if it's covering something, but you can't pan the image, zoom in/out, etc.
Well at least they went after the small guys in Apple, Atheros, Belkin, Best Buy, Buffalo, Dell, HP, Intel, and Lenovo. I mean, it be an incredibly stupid strategy to pull a SCO and go after some of the the biggest computer related companies in the world like IBM, Novell, and RedHat. I hope the companies can find enough operating capital to make it through the lawsuit.
Because a jury just ruled that they were. They felt they weren't, and they probably will appeal the ruling, but in the mean time (and just in case), it still makes sense to determine a non-infringing way of doing the same thing.
I'm so sick of the "it's only bad when government does it" argument.
When the government does it, it usually means that you have no other (legal) choice but to accept the censored version. When a non-government entity does it, it's their choice and there is almost always an alternative. Yes it may not be as cheap or convenient, but there is still ways for you to get your censor-free music. It's not "bad" when Wal-Mart does it, it's their choice. Just like it's your choice not to shop there.
And my assumption would be that it's to avoid giving anything away about the location where it was filmed.
If that was the case, why not just stand in front of a black/grey/white/etc background. Even just a sheet would work. Highly portable. Easy to setup. Untraceable. Plus there is no post-production. I'm not a conspiracy theorist generally, but I think there is more to the background then just being in an anonymous location and showing off their "1337 skilz".
Sure, but they have spent so much effort defending the vile filth called pornography and removing religious belief from public life that most conservatives take a default position against them.
So why is your objection to pornography and your religious beliefs so much more important that it should override anyone's elses? It's all about freedom. You should be able to watch what you want, worship how you desire, etc without someone telling you how you should or shouldn't be allowed to do it. If you don't like porn, don't watch it. But if I want to, don't get in my face telling me what to do. If you want to worship in some particular way, then do so. But don't worship in such a way that you are forcing me to also worship in that same way.
I may not like the message that you are giving, but I'll defend your right to give it.
We had that a while back. Developers were trying to figure out the best way to secure only a section of the site that had to be secured, but the reset of the site didn't. We were dealing with some odd security issues going between zones. I just made the suggestion, "Why don't we just https everything?" No one had really thought about that and there wasn't a real compelling reason why we couldn't just do that.
Which version of AutoCAD retails for $17k? AutoCAD 2008 appears to cost around $4000. There are other "editions" that cost more, but nothing in the $17k range.
Typically you have been able to add additional storage space, if I understand things correctly. The Tivo S3 Lite just doesn't come with as much as it's big brother does.
You apparently don't work for a company with a draconian policy that requires you to shutdown your machine every night. That was my company several years ago. Recently they applied a new policy where you had to leave it on, but you must log out (and not just lock your machine). Updates are automatically applied during the evening and your machine may be automatically rebooted, regardless if anyone was still logged on and had something running/not saved. But of course that never happens because everyone logs out every night..right?:(
By the way, everyone was outraged about "Big Oil's OBSCENE profits" last year. Get this: Exxon makes about $0.06 profit per each gallon of gasoline sold. That's after discovery, drilling, transport, refining, and delivery to retail. The State of NC takes 10X that much (about $.57 per gallon) for doing nothing.
I have no idea if your numbers are correct, so I'll presume that they are. Exxxon made a profit of $.06/gallon after all their costs. Fairly decent I guess. The state didn't make a profit. Once you took out the costs for road repairs, snow removal, salt, maybe the state police, etc, my guess is that they probably broke even. I've never seen a state that makes a profit off of taxes. The state may not have costs associated with the production and delivery of the gas, but saying that they do nothing with the money is incorrect.
The motto for the site is "News for nerds, stuff that matters". I think the ending falls under the second part of that. While it may not matter for you, it matters for the expected 10m people that watched last night. If you don't want to read about the Soprano's, don't click on the thread. Seems pretty simple to me.

What type of CF lights did your dad use? I have a variety of CF lights around my house and they are all pretty much instant on to full brightness.

If you don't like the newer Start Menu, why not just switch back to Classic View?
If the beadblaster shoots the surplus AquaDots, the target won't remember what hit 'em.

Hey, it's our internet. We are just letting the rest of the world use it too.

To my knowledge Verizon Online (not Mobile) has never shut off someone due to service overuse.

I would have thought that non-Americans would have interpreted U of CA as University of Canada...
What good is a right if you can't exercise it?
Not as embarrassing as the whole English/Metric units of measure though.
Hell yeah. And while we are at it, why don't we get rid of the whole color monitor thing too. We should all just go back to line printer terminals.
