You're probably thinking of black body radiation, which is decidedly different from this. For a black body to emit enough X-rays to do any useful work, it'd have to be pretty damn hot (something glowing red-hot is around 1000K). In other words, this seems to be an interesting discovery.
If you speak after being given your Miranda rights, you do not permanently give up your rights under the fifth amendment. That is, even if you say something potentially incriminating, you can then decide to keep quiet and still be protected by the fifth amendment.
What about public libraries? Libraries generally charge around ten cents to print a page, which isn't very much. Even so, I'm sure that libraries would be willing to make printing out ballots free-of-charge.
Well, yes, it all boils down to money in the end. My point was that all the other companies are directly affected by piracy - it makes sense that they are vouching to curb it. Cisco isn't affected by piracy, or if it is, not to the same extent. Based on the article, it seems that Cisco is only in this so they can sell the hardware to implement it.
And Cisco has the means to produce filtering equipment, while Microsoft has recently secured a patent to watermark music and track it through the internet.
After reading the summary, I wasn't surprised that Cisco is in it for the money.
I'm gonna start a pool on how long it takes before the guy using this gets 'detained' or otherwise harassed by the gov't for looking suspicious. I give it a month.
Except XHTML+CSS is hardly portable. Not to mention that it's really meant to be viewed on the screen, not printed, and thus you don't get things like footnotes, page numbering, pagebreaks, etc.
The price is also very good. At $99 for the base model it is cheap enough that you can pick one up just to play around with.
For most of the world, $100 is not something you can just spend on a whim. Then again, it might be for the people who buy iRobot products in the first place.
As far as tuning the radio goes, many new cars these days come with buttons on the steering wheel that let you change the station/CD track/volume without looking down or taking your hand off the wheel.
You can do the same thing with a Linux LiveCD and a thumbdrive. Or by connecting the drive directly to a Linux box. I don't see why having a Mac makes this process special in any way.

This is eerily reminiscent of the "mechanical hound" from Fahrenheit 451

It depends on the state, but many do have laws granting exceptions for drinking with parents.
Still don't see the issue?

Isn't that what Stargate was about?
What worries me more is that they are storing the passwords in plaintext.
Unlike sites with self-signed certs, sites with vanilla HTTP make no claim about their security.

I won't believe a word of what you said until Netcraft confirms it.

That's rather surprising, considering that he's not dead yet (cue Monty Python music).
You mean you haven't downloaded the iAED app yet?

You're assuming that the operator has the medical knowledge necessary to diagnose tuberculosis or cancer.
You forgot "Voyager".
If I were living in China, I'd be wary (and probably afraid) of speaking out against gov't censorship and control of the Internet.
Programs like PeerGuardian already block IPs belonging to RIAA and friends.
