America probably turned one of the russian agents, sending them all back together muddies the water and might make it harder to figure out who is the turncoat.
Either way, it seems funny because if there is any speculation that one could have been turned then they all will be out in the cold anyway, so whatever is happening here is going to involve something happening quickly as they are all burned.
How come SPAM(R) vs spam? How did the use originate, and who was the first to use it to classify junk email?
I've seen the comments about nobody wanting neither SPAM(R) or spam, but where did it come from?
What could we call junk emails from Hormel if they started mass uce-ing?
I hope the monster brings some batteries when he is awoken by kim jong. I've been looking for a seamonster battery for ages. My computers clock no longer keeps the right time (or date!) and I can't find one anywhere.
A computer guy told me I needed one of these to fix the problem.
I wonder if the indian 'computer' police still staple floppies and compact discs to their crime reports? Or still equate taking a monitor away to taking the 'computer'.
Seriously, what can I do to stop the indians even getting access to my data in the first place? I would rather my particulars were held with some kind of sanctity.
Absolutely nothing we can do probably. There ought to be something though, right?
I think they are that size because that is roughly how big they are in the image search results page. Full-size images can often look a lot different when scaled down.
I think they are looking for the concept eg a 'tree' or a 'man', rather than 'ash tree' or 'president bush'
The content of the page would give the extra detail maybe to deduce that a particular tree is an ash tree or a man is a particular person?
The co-op sounds like a mod could maybe create a 'Space Harrier 2005', a superb two player that redefined co-operative playing of video game, thought it was made by Taito, but it was Sega. I might buy this after I see the demo, I always though SS was more like 3DRealms than ID and thought the humour was cool.
It's probably so you can CC another of your email accounts when on the road? Or if the blackberry is being loaned or hired, the hiree can get a copy of the mail elsewhere without cc'ing each message.
You are not wrong, these guys are still selling 80's collected (electoral roll, sweeping) data to other orgs when a HUGE percentage have gone away, died e.t.c. Moving into a new home recently I received several of the same 'qualified' list mailings for the same product, addressed to 5 different names.
The time I see a commercial offer with a returnable card saying 'are we writing to the right person?' on it I'll believe big co's give a shit about our info.
The problem is most people will think 'hey, i've just got five coupons for $shit', then THEIR name goes on the list, so next time they get SIX!
:Cartoon:? I still have my original comic book with the beetle t-shirt iron-on. Or maybe I missed something, like the 80's (which is worrying). I havent seen the cartoon aside from the 'beastwars'.
A roll up keyboard (somebody has created one which projects onto a surface which works) and the rest of it would be cool, but you would need to build comms and storage into it to do anything useful.
Doesn't mean they use it or haven't passed it on to someone else since. Seriously, I've seen MANY people get one and just not bother esp. in older generations. What happen to all the old phones as well, CBA-TRFA?
Who cares if Microsoft or Google do it, someone will eventually, then will they begin to obscufate the mouseover on links, or status bar display?
Someone is going to do it and there is nothing to stop anyone from doing it. We are witnessing an evolution in a huge business, my guess is those who miss the ads miss the potential business and what it means as well.
Using Google and the likes of Moreover you can make a self writing newspaper in a few lines of code. Really gets the cogs spinning when looking at our UK tabloids!
At our office, lots of people use computers for other things than office business. Using car and football talk forums, using Word to do hubbys sales meeting notes (for another co.), all whilst on work time.
Once someone who doesn't really give a fuck about working can use a computer and gets a job, they think that's it, nevermind distractions, they are there to do at most 2hrs work a day out of 8 and then waste the rest of the time on their own business.
The answer isn't to persecute those of us who use IT, or those who are getting into it enough to need wizards e.t.c. IMHO we need something like a 'solitaire guy' wizard from an earlier/. article to alert those able to come down on time wasters like a ton of bricks.
Is there anything in development for wikiwiki that could act as an anti-plagiarism component?
Do you worry that if any lawsuits crop up interest in the project will fade away or attract irrepresible trolls and promote groupthink, that the wiki become consumed by chaos?
Their numbering must eventually end and what will happen then?
For VINs 'doppelgangers' might be a solution, using some other marker to identify in conjunction with the VIN, like the area those VINS were issued in.
Remembered a link here to credit card numbering logic, interesting read.
Why go to the moon and never go back?, Why improve on ideas when the old ideas are great?, Why fix it if it ain't broke?
I can't honestly comment on the technical aspect of how big a problem everyone using this tech might cause but someone ought to let D-Link
know.
It's like the ringtone industry that is starting to develop, you pay them and let everyone else hear it, if it truly is bad for comms in general, the world should know how bad it is, and what it's going to cost to fix it so we can all use the wires already within the walls for what they are possibly capable of.
I am really pleased about this, a nice present from Yahoo this morning. The previous limit wasn't bad if as others mention you transfer text or zipped docs, now it can be more like my USB pen drive.

It could be a smoke-screen that hides something else that has happened / will happen somewhere else in the system?
That 'limited liability' will no doubt come in handy when they start throwing old people down the stairs and hiding their medicine.
The link to the pictures of the robots seems to be wrong, or has it moved?
Seriously though - is this really news ? Shouldn't we wait until it's confirmed one way or the other before it makes sense to comment on it ?

Might be something like the 'Guaranteed Pop' product from http://www.falkag.com/ ?

Sco Fucked Up, Shafted Open Source.
There is an extension called 'Magpie' that might be easily modified in this context to provide what you want.
