I bought one for mapping some wardriving stuff, and was pleasantly surprised at how handy it's been. Driving in NY (poor signage at 80 mph) has become infinitely easier, and now I can chart a couple of different routes home to see how much traffic will affect me.
In the woods, I use it more for mapping out honey-holes than getting rescued. It's a tool, like any other. It depends how you use it.
Diebold is simply selling shitty hardware/software, and really getting away with it because nobody else sells this kind of hardware, at least that is well known and accredited.
Why is anybody selling this stuff? Does everything have to be privatized? You'd think something like voting, that is as critical to the health of a so-called democracy as anything else, would be fully open for inspection.
I haven't picked up Max Payne 2, yet, and I sincerely hope this is not the case.
It's exactly the same as the first one, which is either good or bad depending on what you're expecting. There's some witty dialog, but a lot of it sounds forced, and some of the funniest parts (like the TV episodes) are just run into the ground in the second. It looks exactly the same, and they even reused a couple of the worlds, so that's pretty weak. I won't give away the ending, but ugh. It's a definite renter.
But the word is they're going to really demonize him by showing that he is planning to destroy the U.S. by diluting and undermining the sacred institution on which all of civilization is founded, you know, the one that will simply evaporate if the goverment fails to regulate it adequately.
I'd like to see the community really engage the guys in Munich to ascertain 1. what the problems have been 2. what we can do (new software, utilities, companies, services) to alleviate these transition pains.
Perhaps even a/. interview. As troll- and IANAL-bloated as Slashdot is, there are some people here who can make decisions about thousands of systems, and are watching Munich with great interest.
No, but "they" don't have as much money as "we" do. This stuff isn't something you just cook up in your garage. It's like the weaponized anthrax - there are only a couple of countries that have produced it. All those envelopes flying around the post office and Congress weren't from Iraq.
LOL! What, healthy people got infected and died in a matter of minutes?
No, but some people drowned in their own blood in a matter of hours, which would be perfectly valid if you s/trolley/train/g.
I'd stay away from whatever the hell NPR is if I were you - sounds like they haven't a clue about viruses.
I love how people slag on NPR from the hearsay of J. Random Stranger on Slashdot. Very enlightened. Bill Gates is the Devil. I read it here, it must be true!
Because you can only elect from those people on the list that is essentially chosen for you. And you don't get much of a say in who goes on that list.
You know what I find odd though, is that when there is a choice (like, say, the Green Party), people complain about it and claim they're taking votes from an electable party. It's sad that America is completely dominated by two parties, both very similar (race to the middle, anyone?), and any apparent deviation from that is met with great hostility ("Nader cost us the election!"). It would be nice to be able to vote for something, instead of a reflex vote against what you don't want. I see people as voting for Nader because they believe in his policies, rather than because they don't want Bush to get elected.
But who knows? The voter turnout for 18- to 24-year-olds in the 2000 election was 9 percent. Nobody cares anyway.
It is best if you can account for all of your time while unemployed.
What if you can account for most of it, barring some minor blackout periods where you wake up in the back of a hardware store, naked from the waist down lying in a pool of your own vomit? Theoretically speaking, I mean.

How can a monopoly grow since, by definition, it is the only game in town?
Is Microsoft a monopoly?

distcc is your friend. Everything's better when you have a 6 GHz processor.

He's marrying another man?
On a similar note, the search for Bin Laden is finally underway.
Who?
Maybe a better analogy would be, say, chopped up Supras to the sports car market. They're popular, but you wouldn't want to race a 959.
I guess the logical conclusion of all this is if you use IE, you have a small penis. Or something.

It's not fair use. It's a public broadcast, in an advertisement designed to make money. Nice try though.

Tell me which portions of the Patriot Act that trouble you.
Blanket search warrents.
Nationwide roving wiretaps.
The stock price from last Friday? That stock price?

When Google says they're not going to resell my information or track my moves, they've given me no reason to disbelieve them.
Google has logs of every search ever run. According to your paranoia level, you may want to react accordingly.

Or sco.com is down, and Google doesn't link to downed sites. Not much of a conspiracy here, I'm afraid.
