Trust me guy; Blackberry is THE STANDARD when it comes to corporate mobile e-mail. My dad is a system admin, and he uses the Blackberry with the Nextel Direct Connect capability. Just walk around New York City and see how many of the corporate suits carry one of these device along with their cellular and laptops (if they need them). Heck, last night I even saw a young boy learning how to use HIS OWN Blackberry from his mom and dad who BOTH had one. They even have an illness assiciated with it. Blackberry finger...it was so popular that it made it on the top news columns a few months ago.
...is that he's pimp and a gangsta. Look at them glasses he dons. Look at his demeanor. "Bitch, if you don't step down, I'm gonna have to backhand slap you with some nukes. Fuck the peace talks! Y'all ain't representing the hood right"
I agree. And judging by Google's history, they seem to be the company that will empathize with the global domain. They ARE a search engine (THE search engine), so they have an idea of how many queries go for international maps.
There is a damn difference, even if there is no life on Mars. What about the potentially negative effects that could reach Earth? We have no way of telling that a massive release of gas on Mars would not eventually come back to haunt us here on Earth.
The difference here is that Google is getting that information because you go to Google. Netcraft s a bit more "intrusive", but at least they aren't doing this to potentially charge you with some horrible crime. the FBI is a government entity with power to punish you for your activities. If they were able to do this without the will of judicial allowance, the government would not be serving in the best interest of the people.
Why do they have video games in the first place. Unless it's something productive, I don't see the relevance in a jail having video games. Of course the physical activity, and maybe the inspirational movie, concert, but video games?

From what I can tell, Slashdot is a place for "news for nerds, stuff that matters". Why does everything have to be related to Linux? Is a nerd necessarily running a Linux box, encoding his music in.OGG, worshipping Linus in the morning, etc..?
And from what I can tell, cryptography isn't exactly common sense. It can be classified as a science, or branch of mathematics. Those both sound like nerdy subjects to me.
I think the feasability of finding a job like that, especially in the software/hardware engineering field, is very hard beyond the large companies and public sector institutions/education. Much of what makes the computer industry is its innovation. The companies that make a point or get an edge are the ones that do something unorthodox, and I believe that most of those companies have employees with the sacrificial drive. Remember how Apple supposedly treated its engineers during crunch time for the Mac OS in the eighties? I think long-term jobs in the computer industry are a very small minority.
Sadly those "geek boners' you speak of overshadow when I have a REAL boner...thereby blowing any chance of a woman being impressed by my package.
I sympathize with your point, brother.
Also, to the geeky people who don't have lady friends: You can potentially meet some great women on the site who are generally interested in your writings (personality) rather than simply looks. I met some cool people in general (and dated a girl I met, even though it didn't work out too well) using Livejournal. You can make it something worthwile to use. It's not only about the teenage females athough some of you may like that too.
Unless that 95% figure was a hyperbole, you'd be surprised at the amount of traffic lights around here (Westchester, NY) that change in a few second of me pressing the crosswalk button.
I agree with the elevator button though. I mean that button never does anything and I know it. I still press it though. Psychology, eh..?
It really sucks at night in NYC when there might be very little traffic around. You'll be sitting there...waiting.
I can see how a system like this might help ease at least that problem. It might be a better solution than the induction sensors. And you know that in NY, every saved second counts - heh.
I wonder how effective a red-light running sensor would work in NYC. How many taxis would get tickets during the first month it was introduced? - heh
It just goes to show how "fear and security" are being used as major fronts while the increasingly conservative bureaucrats over in DC continually threaten to erode our civil liberties.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Republican (in the true sense of the word) meant a more hands-off approach when it comes to the government. Why does it seem like many of them are violating that ideology?
I actually empathize with some ideal republican ideals, but the current minds in office don't seem to be representing those.
As the previous commenter said, LiveJournal lets you blog "privately" You can set filters on each post you make. From totally private (only you can see) to totally public. It allows you to make lists of people that are allowed to view it when they're logged into LiveJournal. So If I only want Old Koreans on my friends list to be able to view my posts, I can make a list of OLD Koreans, choose that as the filter for a certain post (or as the default filter for posting) and it's done.

That would be somewhat ineffective since some people will think that some Spam are legitimate advertisements that they signed up for. Would it be wrong if you signed up to one of those mailing lists that happen to give your e-mail address to third parties and mistook a spam e-mail to be a legitimate e-mail from those third party vendors you chose to receive e-mail from? No. One further...would it be fair if you ordered something from that mistaken e-mail and got hauled off to jail/fined for it? No, IMO. Too stringent a statute you suggest.

Apparently not too well. Them servers are heating up! Lets hope the Brits don't hate us because of it.

Actually, I'd rgue that in many ways, Saab's quality has increased since being acquired by GM.

pretty sad state that a most likely $1000 is considered old when it passes a year
I think the Macintosh OS demonstrates the direct relationship of the two pretty well, even though other companies may not.
please do...
