Cellphones add a delay of about a second when both phones are on the same network and talking to the same mast. I would have thought the kit to send signals to the moon would introduce an even longer delay. Then bear in mind that we are not always at the point of the earth closest to the moon, so that will introduce an even greater delay. I guess to have continuous contact with the moon, we would need to send the signal up to a satellite network which bounces it round to the nearest bird to the moon at that point, then sends it up to a lunar network, and round to the robot in question.
You are not allowed to install p2p software without the consent of the authorised computer user. You are not allowed to prevent the authorised computer user from blocking installation of p2p software. You are not allowed to prevent the authorised computer user from disabling or removing p2p software.
Or, in English. Don't install p2p progs without the computer owner's permission. Don't try to stop the computer owner from removing or disabling any p2p progs on his computer.
Seems pretty reasonable to me, and isn't going to stop you from installing emule or bittorrent on your own computer. You won't be able to install it on your work computer without your employer's permission, but you need that already.
I guess the most noteworthy thing is that the IP address used to create the account is kept forever. I'm sure we read a few weeks ago that Yahoo do the same.
When Russia wants to cause havoc in Europe, they just need to turn off the gas taps at their side of the border. No cyberattacks required. They did this last year and the year before. Not this year though, I suppose the fact that we are setting things up to enable us to get supplies from elsewhere has discouraged them from trying this too often.
They tried that already, and the EU sent them back for another attempt.
The first attempt had the top five browsers ordered by market share. It had to be five to include the Norwegian company who complained about it in the first place. Now it is the top five in random order. Hopefully the Windows eqivalent of/dev/random isn't weighted in favour of Internet Explorer.
Windows Mobile integrates with exchange without the need to purchase Blackberry Enterprise Server, or get a separate Blackberry Subscription from your phone company. You can also sync with Google services using Activesync, and with Hotmail / Windows Live services.
Microsoft currently target the phone as a poor man's Blackberry, and it serves that market quite well.
I have an app for that on my Windows Mobile phone, wmwifirouter if anyone is interested. The main problem with it is that it drains the battery very quickly.
Don't think that will work. There is a tax information sharing agreement, and as data flows both ways on that one, it isn't affected. SWIFT does international wire transfers and doesn't know what happens to the money once it has been transferred.
Anyway, if you want to avoid tax, you put your money in Switzerland or Leichtenstein, or maybe Cayman Islands or British Virgin Islands. Those countries are not in the EU.
The information isn't being pulled off the chip. That's the point. You have something that simulates a chip saying the PIN was correct, regardless of what you enter.
In Britain, Western Union's banking type services are provided by Clydesdale Bank. Paypal hasn't partnered with a local bank to provide any of its banking type services.
Not quite. You deposit $100 into your bank. They lend out $90 which the borrower spends, and it ends up getting deposited back in the bank. The bank lends out $81 dollars, which gets spent, banked and so on. Eventually, you end up with $1000 being deposited and $900 lent out from that original $100 of federal reserve money.
If the depositors request their $1000 back, the bank has $100 in the safe, and $900 in loans. But if those loans are 30 year mortgages, they won't be able to call them in to pay the depositors, and even if they are overdrafts, the borrowers may not have the money to pay the loan back.

From either the girl or the boyfriend's computer most likely.
Most of us did pick up that it was rubbish. We do prefer our anti-M$ rants to be based on facts.

'runas' in Windows 2000, XP and 2003 is more like su than sudo.
Electricity is generated using something. Depends where you are, but in England it is quite often generated using gas.
It was originally a fork of Mandriva, using apt-rpm rather than urpmi.
Firefox is actually a fork of Seamonkey.
In the order presented on my cheat sheet:
Safari
Chrome
Internet Explorer
Firefox
Opera
AOL
Maxthon
K-Meleon
Flock
Avant Browser
Sleipnir
Slim Browser
Some of those get into the top 11 because they are popular in China and Japan.

Because EON and Gaz de France are not household names in the USA, so their local press isn't interested and doesn't cover it.
I think the name people are going to recognise most in that list is Google, and Google have had lots of poster ads for their browser recently.
I use Samba to organise my music collection. I organise my music in directories by Artist / Album / Track. Works well for me anyway.

Windows 7 came out in Oct 2009, so Sept 2009 was low because people were waiting for it to come out.

It isn't just the EU. If you wire money from India to China for example, that most likely goes through SWIFT, and that gets reported to the US.

You can watch youtube videos because there is an app for it. For flash video from other sites, I agree with you.
The iPod Touch supports exchange, so I think it is fairly likely that the iPad will as well.
