Me too, but that's because I didn't do the homework. That, and my teachers were sexist fucks. I mean, why couldn't I get an opportunity to sleep with the instructor for extra credit? It's discrimination!
That depends on if you went for a modern equivalent or a historically accurate reproduction. Once there were enough trained people, I'd imagine the time it'd take would be similar or faster, assuming everybody was appropriately motivated.
Interesting info on the lead mining. It's not one of the more popular metals for historical topics.
I wasn't doubting you. My head spins too. Hell, I'll admit I have a high quality of life compared to lots of people elsewhere in the world. Nothing wrong with that, but I'm more familiar with the "ugly American" reputation over hedonistic. Very embarrassing.
Funny that the parents are Canadian. It is something I'd expect from US parents, somehow. Of course, I have disappointingly low expectations from some of my countrymen. Personally, I think the parents should have just started homeschooling. If they had that much energy to fight the system like that and "knew better", then prove it. I like the part about there being no clear connection between homework and performance at school. Lawyerifically speaking, I'm sure that's true. It's also true that there wasn't a link between sex and pregnancy until somebody decided to start taking notes on the matter.
Unfortunately there was nothing to suggest that in the link. The link to his follow up blog pretty much states he's unrepentant and probably got his hand smacked by his boss. Naughty blogger.

Well, fire Greenbaum. STLtoday.com didn't reserve the right for him to track people down and harass them through their employer, nor did he use the agreed upon remedies outlined in the terms of service. I guess even the editors don't read those things.
Will they work on a way for getting that out of the system before deploying the beads? Long term effects on the area? I've read stuff like that is what holds up blacklight tattoos. When you figure the inks will be in the body just about forever, allergy and rejection considerations are important. Immune suppressants would make this technology a bit less attractive.
Everybody knows that there were no such diseases before the modern industrial food complex started shoveling processed crap down our throats. Ancient Egyptians were practically immortal. I mean, everything you ate back then was organic, there was no fluoride in the water and the ozone layer was fully intact.
Sorry. I was sarcastically justifying the action of spreading misinformation by those in the article. I thought I laid it on thick enough to be obvious. If you know enough folks like that to take it seriously, you have my condolences.
I'd disagree with that one. How about taking everybody's cellphone within a certain radius and only returning it when they left that area because one person was accused of having an improper conversation?
Or there could be a reverse sale on grades. "Hate that kid? Get them held back a year! $100 for an F, $50 for a D-. Ensure your place in the upcoming scholarship shuffle by eliminating the competition!". You know there would be some serious cash being spent by those with parents who want little Timmy to be Valedictorian.
So did everybody else, no? I'm happy for URLs. Back when you could only connect by knowing the correct IP, 69.69.69.69 was pretty much the only porn site on the web... well, strand.
That's what the DMCA safe harbor provision is for. You wouldn't be liable. From a tech standpoint, though, you might want to know what is dragging down the bandwidth in a specific area. It might be indicating a problem other than a heavy file download.
The actions of one individual caused a reaction that removed a public resource, thus denying it's use by others? Sounds like group punishment to me, even if the scale isn't city wide.
It's not different than revoking the drivers license of everybody on your street because one person might have been speeding. You didn't do anything wrong, but you're being penalized. That'd be considered group punishment, right?
Really? Then why is it the RIAA has to do John Doe lawsuits over file sharing rather than just suing the ISP itself? There might be a bit of legal terminology that's mixed up in this discussion, and I haven't participated in the conversations that ISPs aren't Common Carriers. They are shielded to some degree regarding the actions of their users. I can surmise that for a whole town of people, and only one downloading a movie, the action was drastic compared to what's probably happening on the normal home accounts.

Most returns I've seen for netbooks have been because "Cheaper = Worse" refers to the purchaser, not so much the product.

Money speaks rather freely everywhere, no?

A very possible option. If so, bravo. WHBT.

Just make sure the modifications to the PS3 or Halo ensure the following:
Slow
Buggy
Costs more than the intended solution.
Makes an indecipherable, yet compelling, resume bullet.
It's a project worthy of the pointiest PHB to waste funds with.

Oooh, that's a nasty, BOFHish, twist. I salute you.
You forgot the trojan that gets installed if your player happens to be a computer.
... for the porn industry to whip up something fun with this.

Most of the /. folks are looking for their favorite lesbian porn clips.

Not quite a fixed post, but close enough.

Awesome. Then you can explain or link the principle under which the RIAA doesn't sue the ISPs directly? Help me learn, please :)

War on Terror, War on Drugs, War on Filesharing, War on common sense. At least one of these if going on right now!
I wonder which one is closest to being "won".
