Also of note, AVR and PIC chips are available in a lot of prototype and home lab friendly packages. Many (most?) of the ARM chips are in xQFP, and you can use those at home, but it's quite imposing.
This, or disable them. Snip a wire or two, cut a solder trace, it's probably not tough. In fact, covering the ports with electrical tape would disable the camera completely, and most likely impair the microphone to a great degree.
Right. A bunch of the software in OS X, and a bunch of the libraries that software on it uses are made by the Linux/Unix crowd.
You enjoy Angry Birds though, i'm sure that will be practical experience for a job at some point.
Yep, watch out for Gitmo. The secret base, so secret that everyone talks about it all the time, and it gets referenced on almost every news site at least once daily (even if the story doesn't directly have anything to do with it).
I would mirror your sentiments on both the damage ratio between home and professional uses, and also on businesses not buying as much new hardware. Our company used to run a 3 year cycle on computer replacement, but now we only replace when it can't be fixed. Also, I worked at BestBuy about 4 years ago, and when you had business customers at all, it was usually a software issue. With people in general, it was often physical damage.
it is not the place of the US to incite rebellion in Iran
Oh the horrors! Someone put up a website! Now all the Iranians will have to login and read all of it. You know, people wouldn't rebel unless they agree. If they really are content with their lifes, they would see the site, possibly read it, say "I don't agree", and log off.
My dad drinks more water than most people I know. He had cancer. Granted, one instance doesn't make a trend, but still. I would imagine people like Lance Armstrong drink a ton of water, and there again...
No, he's right. Look at a list of the wars the US has been involved in within the last 20 years. You will indeed find that we are the biggest threat to peace, you know, provided you are into terrorists or the particular brand of peace/oppresion that dictators bring.
Actually, you're only stomping turtles that are trying to kill you. So, that one is pretty okay too. Going down random pipes in search of new levels though, thats the TRUE menace to society.
I saw the same behavior with a standard cable box. The display even changed from saying the channel I was on, to saying EAS. It locks it down, you can't change the channel until the display goes back to normal.
There isn't a single Apple product that could be considered "seamless", there isn't any large piece of software worthy of that title. I've had app crashes on my iPad and on my Nexus One (and on every computer I have ever used for a decent amount of time).
Apple's hardware isn't years ahead of anyone either. Their computers use largely the same hardware everyone else is using. They make good products, if the features are what you are after, but thats all.
I can attest that religeon (in general, nothing specific) kinda sucks.

He's in a legit line of work now, helping secure companies against the same type of attacks he had used to take your information, and you think he hasn't reformed? Part of your last sentence pretty much sums it up, "And he always will be in my eyes"... There's just no convincing some people, and your hard headed line of thinking isn't really his fault.
Outcome 7 epilog : Government cackles wildly, people laugh at their misfortune (because people always do), two days later, everyone forgets everything. Of all the places you could try and attack to make a statement, a social network site seems like the worst idea. If you manage to cause serious damage, you have more people looking for you, and a bunch of cranky people who can't post about that they had for lunch anymore (but otherwise will just go to Twitter to do it). If you fail, you fail in a setting where even more people than normal are aware that you failed. It just seems like a lose/lose situation.
As much as I dislike Apple in general (and a bunch of my posts reflect it). "bonch" is right. This clearly isn't as big of an issue as the person is making it out to be. There are a ton of people running Lion just fine, and Apple is looking into the problem for those that aren't. The only place they are in the wrong here is for censoring posts complaining about it (which is kind of an old news tactic from Apple).
I've found that a ton of cotton shirts come from Honduras. I'm note sure if that is because a lot of those kind of things do, or because most of them are coming from the same company.
No, it's the internet(s). You have to argue on them! What else is it good for?
By the way Brannon, I don't mean to sell engineering short. I am fully aware of fact that I wouldn't have computers to fix without someone designing everything from the materials themselves all the way up to the shapes and sizes they are built into. Just messing with you. Also, good call on Python, I have used it, though right now I am messing with C++.

Pirates don't pirate because of DRM. They pirate because ..... only to be hit with DRM.
So in other words... they pirate becuase of DRM.

Can, but almost never are. Drive down any busy road in any city as proof.

Oh no, you don't think he accidentally a whole iPad do you?

I didn't want to punch them, but the arm insisted it had to be done.

Furthermore, the license is convoluted enough that this is always the case, no matter which product you are using.
Well, some of them do anyway.

Not really. More like a more maneuverable RPG.

Not a single crash yet on either of my Windows 7 Pro machines (One 32 bit, one 64 bit, quite different hardware between them) :-)
