Everyone except for Microsoft is aiming for ACID3 compliance. So just make sure your site is up to code as much as possible and handle IE as a side case.
Thats the thing, you can't do anything about that because your local cable company has been granted a monopoly by your city.
There in lies the problem to broadband in America, though it also is the solution. Let cities build out there own Fiber networks to the home, and lease access to it wholesale to ISP's. Cable/Telco's can be grandfathered in, but now they will actually have to compete for customers!
If Congress wants to pass Steam Cell Legislation this is sure to pass the Senate. There are 5 Mormon senators (4 Republicans, 1 Democrat) who voted for Embryonic Steam Cell research twice during Bush's presidency.
Orrin Hatch who the RIAA's lap dog, personally appealed to Bush to pass the legislation...I suppose that is about the only thing he is good for...
and when we see the Russians and the Chinese putting miltary bases on the moon with nuclear missles what are we going to do about it?
Sure it will be in violation of treaty, but how will they care if they can reign down Nukes from the Moon and LEO.
The threat of hostile nations doing things with the Moon we would not like is more relevent now then in the 1960's. China has stated there intentions of putting a man on the moon by the end of the next decade. Putin is bringing back the old Russia of the 1960's. If we want to mantain parity in the world, we need to get our asses to the Moon and Mars or we will find ourselves irrelevent.
NASA needs to be folded into the Department of Defense and given as much money as possible. This is a matter of National Security, and the fact Obama is treating it as an extra just shows how much he disrespects the one thing in the Constitution that Federal Government is authorized to provide. Not social programs for welfare dead beat moms who can't keep their legs closed, but to provide for the common defense.
In early America, post offices and post roads where crucial to communication between the states and the new national government.
One can make the argument that the Internet is the 21st century equivalent of post roads, and as such, Congress has authority to build such infrastructure.
As President, John McCain would continue to encourage private investment to facilitate the build-out of infrastructure to provide high-speed Internet connectivity all over America. However, where private industry does not answer the call because of market failures or other obstacles, John McCain believes that people acting through their local governments should be able to invest in their own future by building out infrastructure to provide high-speed Internet services. For this reason, Senator McCain introduced the âoeCommunity Broadband Bill,â which would allow local governments to offer such services, particularly when private industry fails to do so.
He may be against net neutrality, but he can at least see that local government could provide services when the private industry fails to do so. So there is hope that if a Community Broadband Bill does pass Congress he will sign it, and that would allow local governments to build out broadband infrastructure.
This may happen in the UK, but sense the US is run by religious fundamentalists, it will never happen here. Too many fundy's would be screaming mark of the beast at the top of their lungs before we would get anywhere close to this.
If the democrats tried to do this, then the Republicans, (the ones who believe in the second amendment) would revolt. Seeing that the military goes toward Republicans, we would be looking at a military coup.
If it was as simple as the power company offering a discount to those who installed this, then I wouldn't be alarmed. The problem is that the People's Republic of California has decided to enforce this by law. Leaving you with no choice but to comply.
hmmm, I wonder if the explosion was half-way between the Pegasus Galaxy and the Milky Way Galaxy. Isn't there a station out there that connects the Pegasus Stargate network to the milky way Stargate network?
McKay probably just pressed a wrong button again, typical.
I always like Organ Trail, I just wish they had a Mormon Trail version. Where you not only had to worry about surviving, but keeping your wives from killing each other.
Great I can see it now, Bush in a special address to Congress.
"To ensure the security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first [United States] Empire! For a safe and secure... society!"
Who held Congress for nearly all of the time Clinton was it office? The 90's were so great because no one party held control over any one branch of government. The Dems had the Executive, the Repubs had the Legislature and the Judaical was held by moderates.
Of course this was how the founding fathers envisioned that the government would work, three equal branches of government would check each other. Instead, in the early part of the 21st century, the three branches of government shifted dramatically to the right and began to collude with each other, instead of checking each other. The result is the fascist government we have had these last (almost) 8 years.
Because we fucked up royally when we let senators be elected directly by the people and not by the states. This took away power from the state and gave it to the Fed's. What we need to do is stop electing senators directly and let the states appoint them. The people already have their house, it's called the House of Representatives. Now, more then ever, the states need their voice back.

This will never happen as long as Phone companies have a monopoly on their networks (wired or wireless).
They will fight to the bitter end to not end up as just a "Dumb Pipe".
So in other words they killed a total of 65535 Humans?

In the Constitution, Article 1, the enumeration of powers, says that Congress has the authority to establish post offices and post roads.

Better yet, do a Movie/TV Series on the knights of the old republic.

Wait I thought Bush was the new Lincoln, both suspended habeas corpus. Lincoln was also the first Republican, go figure.
You do know that Puerto Rico is inside the US. It's not a state, it's a territory, but it is still in the US, and subject to US Federal Laws.

wow...if that isn't a perfect example of slashdot being a haven for those with geek syndrome I don't know what is.
But will it prepare us for global cooling?
