If it has 7 tuners built-in, I'd assume that there would be a single coax in which would be split among the tuners. There might be a RCA/S-Video in. Then there'd be an RCA or S-Video out.
Cue some joke about them running the webserver on the PVR.
Actually no -- something that would be simultaniously encoding 7 streams would need one hell of a lot of horsepower and RAM. So if they were running it on the PVR, it probably wouldn't exceed the process limit or whatever.
Unless of course someone screwed up and even with 7 tuners, it still only has enough power to encode 1 stream.
And now we need our phone to tell us what the current conditions are? Considering that you generally would have your cell phone outside, why can't you just, oh, look up??? If you really need it, have a temperature sensor inside the phone so the cell network isn't flooded with weather data. (Idea! Better patent it!)
This is true, however I was speaking in the context of length -- how long the thing will run before the power is gone (whis is unlimited so long as the sun is still in the sky), not how many amps are availible to the rover (which is very limited).
As I am not sure how robots.txt works, I cannot say for sure, but at the top, there is an entry for "mediapartners-google" that allows the entire site.
Does the following * user-agent also apply to Google or not? If not, he will indeed get on Google in no time flat.
We're functioning in a - with peacetime restraints, with legal requirements in a wartime situation, in the information age, where people are running around with digital cameras and taking these unbelievable photographs and then passing them off, against the law, to the media, to our surprise, when they had not even arrived in the Pentagon.
Am I the only one who sees anything wrong? My jaw dropped to the floor when I read this quote. Then I read it again to make sure I wasn't misinterperting. Shit, the attitude of this man... the attitude of the whole damn administration! Taking the unbelieveable photographs and passing them off against the law? What law??? We have a right to know. If my military is abusing or torturing anyone, I have a right to know.
But then people wonder, why do they hate us? Bush II can't be run out of office soon enough.
I'm glad that no one knows about it -- as if we need yet another reality show.
Except now, the reality show has infected our beloved internet. Well, looks like the Intarweb has now also gone down the shitter along with TV and radio. It was nice while it lasted, guys... Perhaps now I'll have to... go... outside? (The Horror!)
But that is the beauty of this spec: It's *not* designed to make you look at someone's damned ads. Sure, that is a application, but definately not the only intention. This is to save you from having to use your little keypad on your phone to type in a URL. That is all that is in these barcodes: a URL.
why can't the software be smart enough to read the printerd characters of a url directly?
Becasuse that would require OCR software which would use up gobs of memory and processing power that cell phone don't have. Plus, with the barcode, you get the bonus of it having error correction.
You might think about a link to Firefox (you're on/. so I assume you know what that is), making the explicit point that you can vary text size in Firefox just by ctrl+scroll wheel. Tell everyone. It's the better browser.;-)
Hate to bust your bubble, but you can do the same in IE.
I only have less than a gig of 120 left. It is actually quite depressing.
I'm not sure what's worse; the fact that I am getting depressed about using up 128 billion bytes, or the fact that I'd be able to fill up a terabyte pretty quickly if I had that much space.
My point that copyright infringement is not theft or stealing, it is copyright infringement. Unfortunately, "piracy" has been used as a synonym for infringement for quite a while in order to stir up an emotional response, so it made it into the dictionary.
And when you go flying out of control and careen into another car killing someone because you are irresponsible enough to drive 120 MPH, what then?
This is why I have always felt that we should have some kind of "graduated" program. You could apply for an endorsement on your licence which would, for example, permit you to drive above the speed limit on the interstate. Obviously, the DMV would want to be selective with who gets these. This way, the people who have shown that they are responsible enough to operate their car at a high speed can do so while keeping the people that still can't stay in their own lane at 65.
Of course, this brings up the studies which have shown that it is actually the difference in speeds rather than the absolute speed being driven. Here in Ohio, on rural Interstates, cars can go 65 but semis and busses are limited to 55. As a result, we do tend to have more accidents involving cars and semis simply because the semis have to go 10mph less than the cars. Read more here.
Who knows? Perhaps it is worth a shot.
Oh-- and to stay on topic... Ahem, looks like it is time to shut down ed2k... I mean...

So basically, no more cabling than your VCR.

It would have been George's dream!

Seems complicated at first, but is quite Kickass once you figgure it out. (You may need to buy some hardware in order to get it working.)
I don't believe your own right hand counts for admission to the mile high club.
As a side note, I also have something of a grizzly-proofing tool. It's called a gun.

Theoretically unlimited -- ah the joys of solar power! :)

That page does nothing. At all. The font sizes are fixed. (They are defined in pixels!)
Obviously bad since it requires that I point out that it was a joke.
Ah well, back to bed...
Nah, the copyright holder is the only person entitled to create copies.
...period.
External 1TB drive, for those interested.

Parent is a troll - please mod down, and do not click the link. (It redirects to some adserver who then redirects to an ebay listing.)
Or how about 507 or 508 or 520? A four-digit code would probably confuse some browsers.
Or, even better, just use 402! The RFC defines it as "402 Payment Required."
M-W does not disagree on the term "theft"
