I don't really know what a typical number would be.
3.
You to an intermediary. Intermediary to exit node. Exit node to destination.
There's been a great deal of discussion over the possibility of any further benefit to anonymity by adding more than one intermediary hop, but no significant evidence has been put forward that it would (any attack that would disclose the origin through one intermediary would work through many); so in the meantime we conserve the bandwidth of all those other nodes.
If only there were some standard unit of measurement that expressed power over time... oh well, we'll just have to post bogus maths 'till one is invented.
Now, we're back to where we started from, AND we're pissed off that we have to click 'Allow' all the time like a damn popup ad.
It could be worse - they could put ads on the UAC popups... and a 5 second timer on the buttons... and have them move away from the mouse when you try to click them... and play obnoxious sound clips...

A moments consideration, please, for those who would have to break such a system to support this mindset. They make it difficult by law (p28 sec202 a1) - thus also placing the reponsibility for maintaining their system on the shoulders of the device manufacturers...
Consider for a moment that the alternator, during normal running of the vehicle - produces enough electrical power to drive every device fitted, and still charge the battery - hence it is producing (especially when the battery is full) more power than is used, but still causing the same amount of load on the engine.
The hydrogen seperation process could be run for instance, only when the battery was above 90% capacity, assuming it did drain more than the excess power generated (as allueded to in the above posts), and maintain a small reservior of H2 for when it was needed (engine under heavy load during acceleration or ascention).
This reservior could be expended either by computer control or manually... whatever. Just my two yen.
Precisely! Especially because at the time, the Earth was flat - as it exists in such a quantum state, that it was not round untill it was observed to be. Derr.
While I agree entirely with your argument, if everyone were to go out and buy legitimate licences/prints/copies of all `their' software/books/music tomorrow, and never infringe copyright law again - would the publishers, authors, and artists really lower their prices, or just take advantage of the market boom?
I guess someone with mod-points thought it *WAS* interesting.
Shame on Slashdot for having community moderators. We should band together and force the rest of the Free Slashdotting-World to use our own system; wherein we could intercept posts that might incite groups to take action against our reign of power.

I was talking to a Chinese exchange student at University recently, on a similar topic. One of the interesting points he made was this:
I learned to read when my parents bought an Apple Macintosh Classic.
This computer, complete with it's failing 20M SCSI harddrive is currently sitting in its carrying case next to my desk, as I contemplate weather it's useful for anything with only one of those round Mac serial ports for networking...

I know! We'll publish a summary of the comments to a reaction piece of an interview about a topic - it's top-notch reporting!
As we all know, nobody tests their own work.
Speak for yourself.
I don't know anyone that tests their work as thoroughly as the next person to find a mistake in it.
I don't really know what a typical number would be.

And yet you are modded down for saying so, by the very community you defend... wow.
I'm really not sure I see the advantage of this point:

Which is why we used to hose out ours; *wet* ash turns to mud. Hard to read mud.
They just made it easier to use.

- all that extra R&D doesn't come free...
Yeah, someone didn't verify their facts before posting on slashdot.
In other news, Earth discovered to be round.

I'm sure they would if they could...
No, IR is *low* energy radiation. That's why it's difficult to do any damage with it.
But yes, most IR is in the form of heat.

well... if you lived in Winnipeg... ^_^

At least their opression is overt.
didn't want those civil liberties anyway.
Where exactly do you `take' a 90+% user and software market share from?
Oh, like the setup program?

Even the Great Democracy can fail when the choice is between two opressive parties...
