That is factually incorrect, sir. I would post AC were I not being punished for trolling 'trollkore', a sad bunch of crapheads if you are unacquainted. I suggest you divert your efforts somewhere more fruitful.
In London I have 512/256 (had similar for 2 years) through Demon.co.uk who are great as they don't block ports like BT broadband. Cost is around GBP20 (= USD56 at Friday's exchange rate (GBP1~=USD1.8), though because the US economy is entering the craps the exchange rate is a record low over the past few years). 512/256 is not fast enough for a decent server but easily enough for fast surfing and batching up downloads. I presently transfer ~1 GB/day, mainly downstream, never had a word of complaint or warning.
Well, you could try a search for "bid ask spread" on Google. As instructed by grandparent, you could click I'm 'feeling lucky'. But there you go, any amount of effort to get a post on/. but no effort to gain a well grounded opinion about something you don't know about... no doing your own research of what someone else suggests. If you don't bother to do the work, I shall not share my opinion of it with you. Goodbye.
OT, but it is an AMD 1900XP+... nice when it came out but nothing fancy now (not overclocked, ever). Specified to work fine as long as under 85oC IIRC... it peaks at 78oC after several hours DivX encoding. Usually runs at 70oC. Has a heatsink (not copper) and 80mm fan above it. Room temp is ~23oC w/ 40% relative humidity. A little odd to put in my sig, but friends think it is some weird mutant processor to run so hot, so why not?!
Well, you could look it up if you're interested. A Google search for "bid ask spread" may be a starting point, you may even be 'feeling lucky'. I will not post a link... you may want everything on a plate, do a little work.
Is also doesn't describe why he provided 'material support', not simply support. What is the difference of a verb/noun and the same verb/noun with 'material' inserted before it? Is it the same as a 'material threat' or 'material evidence', like meaning there is no support or no evidence? Well, this phrase was very unusual before the present US administration, so I'm sure it is valid. Could someone educate me?
n33t0x0rs. And it also may approach the heating capacity of an AMD chip, so now I'll be able to install an Intel to heat my room instead of my present AMD incumbent.
I find "While it is unlikely that Tejas includes two discreet Prescott cores on die, there is a chance that the two cores (if they exist) could be sharing data caches and maybe other units. A multicore Tejas would explain the jump in power consumption, and it is in line with Intel's strategy although it does seem sooner than expecte" interesting.
The first Pentium was a stripped-together combination of 2 486-like CPUs, with shared parts. To describe this as "two discreet Prescott cores on die... sharing data caches and maybe other units..." brings together this similarity. Perhaps Intel is trying the same strategy in its journey into 64-bitness that it has tried and succeeded at in the past (hedging its bets if its present design doesn't work out too well)? Just a thought, but IMHO not an unreasonable one.
A question can be just as insightful as an opinion, can't it? If they were to list facts then they'd just be informative, no? If they had a mediocre opinion which didn't provoke thought (i.e. make one question, which insight is all about) they would be interesting wouldn't it?
I certainly would prefer people who really have something insightful to say. Do you think listening to your own advice means anything?

But... when that mosquito is biting your arm do you pour a litre of gasoline on it???
A weekend and only a 6-pack though... you're right he'd have to drink the gasoline to have a good time.
p.s. if you notice yourself being bitten by a mosquito tense whatever part of you body that is being bitten (for example if it bites your forearm clench a fist and tighten your bicep/tricep), the mosquito will not be able to release its sucker and will not be able to stop blood pumping from your body into it. Watch it burst!
"I supose bending the words fits in better with your supporting these violent people"
"m not bending any words. Four unsubstantiated statements of yours implied that all bootleggers are connected to violence."
And I originally said: "No one said...large scale copyright infringement automatically been deemed to be a violent act... but I supose bending the words fits in better with your supporting these violent people"... no breaks
Now, I am not even going to bother with the rest of your trolling.
They are not being punished, they are being dealt with heavy handed. I don't see their asses impounded, or being mutilated by these ex cops (as these gangs reguraly do to each other). RIAA methods of kidnap or mutilation would give the RIAA really bad publicity, ther don't wan that.
And they are not doing this. They are giving a warning. Warning... Punishment... See the difference?
Quit hiding your opinions as a coward... post logged in or continue to hide under a bridge.
Have you ever spoken with bootleggers? Have you ever wondered how they get DVD/CD images (we're not talking DivX w/ AC3)? That the distribution netword for these images is on a massive scale? That these bootleggers are the footsoldiers for the organised gangs who run the copying and distribution networks? Have you ever seen two piracy gangs to to battle (fighting over lucrative territory)? Don't you think there are big bucks to be made?
Well I have. It is logical deduction that where ever illegal money is to be made its location will be competed over. They will compete better if well organised. Bigger rewards will attract more intelligent, more forceful and more violent gangs. Bootleg music/movies attract very high revenue streams.
Oh, and besides this obvious deduction, I lived above a street market for a year (when I was a student), opposite a bootleg stall as it happens. I have seen it with my eyes. Seeing what I did in person I invited the police to set up a surverlance camera in my flat, and now there are several more violent criminals behind bars.

...a guy selling stuff on the street raid-style, scare the shit outta him...
You refer to missing the point... the point is these 'guys that get the shit scared out of them' know they are selling illegal stuff, they are not angels, they are not even people who've fallen on hard times, they are nasty characters helping violent criminal gangs.
If a bunch of ex-cops are sponsored to go and scare them then fine. These are people that scare intimidate others, that 'protect' (as in protection racket) others.
If the violent gang down me street had got pissed off some other gang and got roughed up by them fine, I'm happy with that. I know the other gang are not going after me. The police know this is gang-on-gang stuff, I'm sweet.
If you think that 'to scare the shit' out of these bootleggers is step 1 and step 2 is to scare you, so in turn you defend the violent gangs' right to break the law (by opposing their persecution), profit from others and abuse you, them you, sir, are missing the point.
I think it was both a parody on the old Southpark joke (adopted so well here at/.) and pretty funny (ironic) that someone would pretend to be a pirate buster, to bust pirates using a pirated logo.
On a serious note I am really glad they are going after real pirates, i.e. those nasty organised crime gangs that sell boot-leg materials, making profits to fund other nasty activities. If the RIAA concentrated on going after organised crime (people who make a profit on piracy) rather than individuals who are only after single-use and no profit-at-the-expense-of-others mentality, I may start to like them.
IMHO most people who download music will either subsequently buy the item if they like it (repeated use, better quality from a CD, associated benefits etc), or not buy it if they don't (like music from a radio, occasional use, but don't mind if they have it or not). Organised pirates take money destined for artists/labels from people who would otherwise be likely to pay full (fair, maybe full after discount sometimes) price.

*The onboard modem is a Winmodem, and does not work with Lindows or Linux. It does work with Windows XP
Great computer to sell pre-installed with Linux then. For a Linux-based ultra-light, I recommend these.
