.. it would have to rely on the randomness of the sender's email, which is a giveaway when you actually look at the sender. It's as jumbled as the sender's email for most spam emails. The catch is, as the above poster mentions, missing an E-Bay mail isn't something that's particularly desirable. And I don't think Mozilla's filter could work effectively enough - baysian as it is - on just the jumbled 'from' address.
Mozilla's filtering catches most spam for me, but some gets through. However, the only one that actually fooled me was quite a sneaky one - headed RE: Question from E-Bayer or whatever the actual subject is where you E-Bay something. Given that I sell on E-Bay, the spammers must have taken a gamble that enough people would read the subject and deem it worth looking at.
At least that's my take. One of the reasons I bought an X-Box was the ability to run games off the hard disc. And before someone starts on an anti-piracy tirade, I own legal copies of the games, but putting them on the disc and being able to play them by just pressing a couple of buttons, no cd swapping involved, is great. It may sound lazy, but it was a big selling point of the box for me, and if Microsoft drop the drive, I won't be buying it.
My girlfriend will mess you up any day in Halo. She rolls with my crew on the an XBox named "The Sack" under the handle, GirlNutz... It fits right in with deez, doz, dem, my, etc. Find us on XBconnect and she will prove that some girls do say, "I wanna play too!"
Yep, and with those large hands of hers she doesn't even need to upgrade to a Controller S. Oh.. wait a minute..
Well, several hospilizations later, at least I know why my super soaker filled with 'silver' thermal paste was having no effect upon the local lycanthropes. Damn you, false advertisers.
It's even more amusing when one realises that no self-respecting Australian will be seen dead drinking Foster's.
The only reason it's exported is because nobody's silly enough to drink it here.
Exported? Not in the UK it isn't - it's apparently brewed in the EU, as is Budweisers etc.
So the moon landing was real but the Mars Landing was faked? That'd explain why one newspaper saw fit to dedicate a double spread to how much the Mars landscape looked like a section of the Australian Outback. Presmably Beagle is being used as a barbie stand in Paul Hogan's back yard. Crocodile Dundee 4 anyone?

With so many IT call centre roles being outsourced to India, why not utilize India's Walking Dead. Specifically, there's an army - pun intended - of people who are considered legally dead in India due to corrupt officials declaring them dead so their relatives could get their hands on their land.

'A lawsuit has recently been brought against Rockstar, creators of Grand Theft Auto 4, by the Easily Offended People's Republic of China, a Chinese moral minority watchdog. The lawsuit alledges that the GTA4 mission 'Tickle all the Chinamen with feathers and tickling sticks because we don't want to offend anyone after that Haitian f**k-up' was clearly encouraging people to tickle Chinese people, and was directly responsible for a number of drive by ticklings. The lawsuit also alledged that it was grossly offensive to brand all Chinese people as ticklish, furthering an offensive sterotype. Rockstar's spokesman, a Mr Ken Dodd, denies all charges'
Particularly Microsoft themselves - if X-Box reaches a third iteration - I doubt this'll make X-Box 2. It may well allow them to put a stop to the old trick of soldering in a new bios chip that takes precedence over the onboard bios, thereby allowing the user to run all sorts of software, legal oses and programs and illegal pirate copies.
.. was that working with PCs every day, coupled with the hassle of upgrading my own PC to play the latest games got on my nerves. Currently, my PC does all I want it to do - can be used to go on the internet, play most older games, and so forth. I may upgrade at some point when I'm not dealing with PCs every day, but at the moment I prefer just being able to get a game, slap it in my console and know it'll run at a decent rate.
Probably will be easy to hack, Then you could just block the frequency the car uses for remote control.. Boom Police don't control you... If you ask me it sounds like something from that scene in Terminator 3...
It does. Though it'll come too late to explain how the movie makers thought they could get away with the terminator remote controlling cars that had no remote driving mechanism to start with. Maybe she spawned midget terminators who drove the cars just out sight..
.. it'd make the remote control traffic light changer yesterday's news. Someone cut you up? Hit your handy bootlegged car stopping device and speed past them. Until they do the same to you...
.. every time a probe/rover takes a shot of a supposedly manufactured phenomenon on Mars - the face, the canals, etc, revealing them to tbe natural, and those who claimed the structure was alien-made miraculously manage to find another artifical feature before tea-time.
.. am deeply disappointed by the lack of dog puns.. 'Beagle 2 fails to bark'... 'Down, Rover'.. 'Beagle 2 Space Probe has Ruff Landing'.. so much potential unfulfilled.

Yep, but we have better weapons of mass destruction *sniffles*. Hmm.. I can feel a cold coming on.
