Actually, I'm not even close to republican (I vote socialist...:) but whatever... I was simply stating facts about the last person I met who called himself a libertarian...
Oh, and by the way, you should have bought tinfoil, it's cheaper... quack quack
I'm no fucking libertarian. The last person I met who called himself a libertarian had a lookout post by his house where he was always sitting with a huntig rifle & binoculars, spikes on his road ( and sometimes on the public road), and had covered his house in steel plates to withstand gunfire... I don't feel like sharing a label with him. The other two are fine compliments though...
I think someone should disclose the name of the sponsor that pulled out, not to flame them (well, maybe...) but so that others that might be depending on them get to re-evaluate the economics of their projects. Anyone know who it was?

Kinda kicks you in the ass when people say "ok, what good is it?"
I
know what good it is. It's a way of keeping 'scientists' employed
(scientific welfare) so they don't pollute the job and gene pools.
I'm
considering doin research on the 'how', 'why', and 'classification' of
belly button lint. I'm sure there's a government funded grant in it. We
REALLY NEED TO KNOW THESE THINGS 'just in case' they are usefull in the
future.
Yeah, let's keep the scientists out of the gene pool, maybe even replace them with Christian Scientists(tm). I mean, why would we want people to have even the slightest hint of intellegence, I mean, the public, dear lord. You should let the current administration know you have devised such an excellect scheme for them...
Not that I'm saying this guy is a scientist, but whatever... Oh yeah, and you're a troll, but I couldn't help myself.
I am 26 years old, have lived in the US my entire life, and have never had a firearm of any kind pointed at me. That said, were I crossing a border into another nation, say mexico, there is an understanding that firearms might be present.
In Europe where I live, I have never had a gun pointed at me, wether I entered Greece, Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Denmark, or for that matter Russia. Have you been outside the US? Seems to me you guys are so accustomed to crap like the TSA, guns, the patriot act, not having any real control over your government (please fix this part, we have to live with it too... ) etc that you just accept it as a part of life. Please don't. And to everyone else.
Yeah, it's hard to slap a sticker on your mailbox...:)
Anyway, that's not a privacy concern.. The biggest issue, I guess, is all the unlicensed surveilance cameras that are popping up these days, especially in Oslo, and according to some spokesperson I saw on the news, you're right, they don't have the cash to do anything about it... Overall though, I'm still quite satisfied with them... (If you live here though, I guess you knew all this allready...:)
I am Norwegian, and I am quite happy about the current regulations. There's even a nice government agency that you can report violators to. In addition, they are 'active', in the way that they actually go out and look for violations, instead of just relying on reports. Very nice. I can actually avoid getting my mailbox full of ads every day, even advertisement addressed to me. Not like when I was in the US...:/
The thing is, I think, their usual environment was drastically changed over a very short amount of time. This can be very unsettling for animals (stress=no mating), and fatal for plants (can't move, highly specialized). The big carnivores prey on omnivores and herbivores, and the total amount of food to go around in the system decreases. This, coupled with the (maybe) stressed out dinos, could be part of the explanation. However, I am not a biologist.
I cherish the few times where ___ is evoltion, as I haven't reached the point where I get tired of telling people how ignorant they are yet. Best part is if you can get them to go to the library and get any intro book to biology, physics (astro) & chemistry. I only did that once though... But one soul saved, etc...:)
Forget mini-itx, I want to know when Nano-ITX will be availible... I get the distinct feeling that it's a vaporvare promo trick... it's only 2/3 of the size of the mini-itx boards and 10x as useful/easy to put into things.... I want one:(
Back in the day, I actually made a CS map of my old highschool... was kinda fun to play with all people who went there... I got the building plans from the office cause I was in CAD/architecture class:)
Can't post it though, I like being able to use my dsl connection, and it'd be swamped by 2 people downloading from me... Wish I had SDSL or something...:/
You know what would be sweet? Imagine sitting at some airport with you pda, waiting. You decide you need a file from home/more space/whatever. You mount the hd of your home computer with samba over a ssh tunnel over wifi...:)
Perhaps they need to personify the broadcast flag into a cutesy anime character
Reminds me of the video the kids have to see before they kill each other in Battle Royale...:)

Please explain how Linux software and transmit data via a wireless network without any hardware. While that sure would be a neat trick, I'm going to have to file this under the "you dont need to spend 90$ on a wireless acess point! Just spend 300$ on a computer, 50$ on a WAN card and install Linux for FREE!!!" brand of zealotry.
I'd file it under 'get an old pc from work/take one you allready have, slap in a wifi card and voila, you have something you can play with', unlike the stupid prefab access points that just sit there...:) I'm sure you could make custom stuff that would extend it's functionality beyond the prefab stuff...

Read about UK gun laws.

Fun stuff.
Have you tried contacting that company? Say you're an OEM and that you want 10 sample boards, can't just ask for ome... and give me one too... :)

Put a paper bag over your head.
Don't forget to fasten it with ducttape.

Use linux, install or avoid installing drm drivers, it's your choice, at least for now...
Forget mini-itx, I want to know when Nano-ITX will be availible... I get the distinct feeling that it's a vaporvare promo trick... it's only 2/3 of the size of the mini-itx boards and 10x as useful/easy to put into things.... I want one :(
dunno... it takes effort...

I think their main motivation is to stop the spread of virus attachments
Maybe they should start distributing their security updates that way?
A USB hard disk

Just wish it was smaller & cheaper...
This is just like The Matrix, except this time it's us using poor algae as batteries :(
But fear not, my algae-loving friends, for the Chosen will surface and free you all from the evil sausage-fingers of humanity.

Or maybe they'll sample us instead?
