These guys have been at this since the late 80's/early 90's. If you look at the reviews section, you'll see Dave Beegle from Fourth Estate. I used to work at a pizza joint in Fort Collins, and the manager would always encourage us to go around and see that band...they were friends. One of my friends at the time invested quite a bit of money into the guitar (which Dave Beegle designed/co designed, IIRC)
and if they truly are...then these 'exempt' companies just got a great new method for generating revenue....doing telemarketing for companies that aren't exempt.
Kind of like how credit card companies insist on filling your bill with thousands of ads, up to and including the one you have to peel off before you can glue the envelope shut.
2. Wait until they are marginally technically proficient.
3. Outsource your support center to said country, employing these newly minted corporate flag-wavers.
4. Garner praise and kudos from world community for raising the quality of life in 3rd world.
5. Utilize praise/kudos in global marketing blitz.
6. Profit!
The debris seen floating away from the ISS pales in comparison to the latest piece of ejecta.
Apparently, the communication module for the ISS broke away last week, and was large enough to survive re-entry to the earth's atmosphere.
Officials tracked the piece via radar until it impacted somehwere in NYC.
Officials now say they have located the piece, which is in the possession of a street rapper named J-pod. When asked if he would return the piece to scientists for further investigation, he replied, "No WAY, dog...this thing bumps so loud and picks some so many stations...I ain't givin' it back to NObody!"
(with apologies to SNL for their original piece on skylab way back when)
with a one-bit bus (our mouth) that's going to be pretty slow.
I suppose we could add ten fingers, two eyes, and three toes to the mouth, and get a 16 bit bus, but that's going to be pretty hard to process. Not to mention it will be half duplex at best, since you'd need your eyes to see the other person communicating. Not to mention that a bit shift could very easily have you firmly planting your foot in your mouth.
Umm...then turn around and think about the guy who hates your guts for posting something on your website that he disagrees with. Let's pick a simple, non-controversial topic like, say, religion.
Psychoboy then does a whois on your domain, gets your name, address and phone number, rustles your wife, rapes your cattle, scratches your truck, etc.
Not to mention the fact that this then becomes an easily trawlable database for marketers. (which, by the way, they already do)
I, too, just went through this. I ended up shelling out around $300 for the 'camera' phone, because the low end phones had terrible form factor, and didn't have the battery life I need. This phone is nifty, but it has a LOT of stuff I don't need or want. An additional thing they didn't tell me was that, by default, location tracking was enabled. (I turned that off, I'll take my chances of needing 'someone' being able to find me without the use of my phone. They also don't happen to mention WHO can locate you via the 'location' feature.
As far as the camera, all I've used it for was to take a picture I could use as the main screen background. A picture of my glass of Maker's Mark sitting in front of me, with a caption that says 'I'd rathr B drnkn'

..goes to...
This Inanimate Carbon Hypervelocity Rod!
(applause)
D'Oh!
it just doesn't make any scents.
badda-bump-bump.
...some shot glasses, limes, and Tequila!
If true, I can guarantee that Fraternities the world over would spend every nickel they have in order to host the first ever "Mars Shooter Bash!"
er...oh nevermind.

Thank you. Thank you. I'll be here all week.
I find it amusing that it supports 256MB of RAM.
If it were to find and use a screen with 32kx32k pixels, then 256 color support would max out the available RAM.

my conclusion is that you didn't change the default behavior...."Do Not Search From The Address Bar" is an option under settings.
does it take to change dark matter?
None...apparently it never existed in the first place.
Thanks. Thank you. You've been a great crowd. Don't forget to tip your waitress.

too many drawbacks, not enough gains.
I'm buying the first console that is backwards compatible with my old IntelliVision games.
TRON!
The sign on the window next to the entrance of OptInRealBig's offices in Westminster leaves no room for misunderstanding. Or irony.
NO SOLICITING.
Jar-Jar Binks could kick this thing's ass.

Finding life would provide a simple answer to a simple question. Not finding life leaves the answer unknown.
The question is: "Are we alone?"
From a more practical viewpoint, easily mined water resources=cheaper trips to mars and higher likelihood of colonization.
Colonization=redundancy mechanism for human survival.
Human Survival=Human's primary goal.
Therefore, easily mined water=first step toward achiving primary goal.
Very cold, very dry. Prime conditions for build up of static electric charges. Martian soil just has a bad case of static cling.
All of these worlds are yours, except OrIo and Europa. Attempt no further landings there.
