Well, that may be true, but then they just call out the "drug/bomb sniffing dog" and yank on its leash while it's near your car so it barks, and then bam, "probable cause."
the data is based entirely on the number of Google searches containing each distribution’s name per unit time as reported by Google’s search insights tool.
Even worse than that, it appears to be based off the percentage of each term related to the other ones they selected for.
And it also reminds people that making your house, or secret military base, or corporate headquarters, appear as an unexplained blank spot in an otherwise comprehensive public database draws more attention to you than leaving it there in plain view would.
I would consider my reputation pretty tarnished if people thought I was endorsing some old guy who drove around in a VW beetle claiming you should join in on his rap sessions with his big invisible friend in the sky...
Actually according to Der Spiegel there is no brewery in the town. Just some random company decided to name their beer after it. Either way I think it's brilliant marketing. Unfortunately I cant seem to find any way to order any, it may not have been released yet.
No. Every once in a while you see ones for $1-2 per task, but then you realize each task is something along the lines of writing a 3 page research article.
Humans are actually pretty miserable drivers, especially the distracted, tired, intoxicated, bored, old, trying-to-outrun-the-cops, and other pathological case ones;
The way things are going I wouldn't mind an automatic car with a mode for this.
Yeah, I was wondering how they planned on stopping people from driving into oceans, volcanoes, mines, etc. Will this car keep you alive for a week buried under a dozen meters of mud when the whole mountainside above you gives way? (No, I didn't RTFA.)
I would say it's more Analogue Ripoff Management, as the only "right" involved here is the right to charge you an extra ten bucks for a two dollar part.
Oh, and it also has absolutely nothing to do with copyright. The only creative expression in this series of resistors is the creative use of bullshit scam-artistry. Maybe it falls under patents? "Method And Apparatus For Fucking Customers Via Voltage Transformations And Douchebaggery"?
My fiancee is going to hate you. I go through periods of different genres of music. She dreads my classical kicks, and I have a feeling this thread will certainly set one off.
You seem to have gotten confused about how this internet thing works. You can't merely throw off the word troll and win the argument. The person you're responding to has to actually be trolling. That means making stupid or outrageous arguments merely to illicit a response. Considering his arguments are currently moderated +5 insightful and yours are modded down into oblivion, I would certainly call foul play on your use of the term.
What if it's NOT encrypted, and that's just noise left over from stress testing the drive with random read-writes? How exactly would justice be served by holding that guy in jail? Apologies if you were being sarcastic.

I think that's exactly the GP's point. $3k isn't worth risking your job over. $30k or $300k might be.

I believe this is the likely end result, but the road there could get pretty fucking ugly.
Well, they sure as hell have changed around the wording for every story I've ever had accepted. If that's not editing, what the hell is it?
So, as a bisexual I am uniquely suited to compromise this persons account.

Or a P!
Ok, so we don't actually have any candidates yet, but hopefully we will within a few years.
if it makes a loud point of pledging to not rape your privacy,
Kind of like these guys?
Yeah, I'm not normally even awake at 6:30am. Guess I should have known better than to post on slashdot that early!
I thought this was already done to some degree with the popularity contest.
In several years of hitchhiking the most dangerous thing I encountered was being nagged to death by people telling me it wasn't safe to hitchhike.

Whoever modded this informative should have actually read it first. Parent copypasta'd the article and then edited in homophobic bigotry.
I used to be one of those people. The poor ones who couldn't afford the games and thus pirated them. Why no longer you may ask.
I'm still poor and my video card is too old for any of the new games. >:-|

I haven't read the patent, but the way you describe it sounds like 'computer runs a scheduled job it was down for upon booting'.

Ah yes, I can see the conversations with our son now.
"Daddy, why aren't you and Mommy married?"
"Well, you see son, every 6-8 months I listen to classical music for a few weeks and Mommy doesn't like it very much." ;-)
