The FCC's doing a lot of things wrong- in fact they're doing the same thing wrong that every other governmental organization is doing. "Deregulation" increases competition in undeveloped markets. When there are already big players, all deregulation does is increase the competitive power of those players to squash and purchase smaller startups. What the government needs to do is to subsidize the startup capital and regulate the big players. THAT will increase competition because it will lower the barriers to market entry. The biggest problem with the FCC is that as a regulating body, they are not. Instead what's being done is state and local governments move in to tax the startup capital for telcos (which should be bought and paid for by tax dollars which are going to Iraq), and the FCC pussyfoots around with their "deregulation" to make sure that men with money don't have to pay shit to anyone.
This is how your small ISP in buttfuck, new jersey can get raided by FBI and have your server taken straight off the rack, but AT&T is rewarded for illegal wiretapping.
Well, at the very least the first and last parts are base-three and the middle part is hex. You see there's nothing higher than a triplet in the first and last parts? Then in the middle, we know the symbols are mapped to hex values straight up. You could actually take the entire number, concatenate it, and convert it into ascii if you wanted to.
NOTE: it looks like you have two conveniently unmapped symbols in the middle bit, A and 1- which could be mapped to S or that little squiggly bit. Tricky, eh?

I mean, most computer science departments love to use unix/linux because the OS lets you get down and really teach and use the core components, basically providing a much more solid development model for a lot of people. Windows, however, has the benefit of being able to pay lots of money and not have to worry about donations or grants to fund its progress. The only question is whether or not you think we're moving to stable free software as a workable model for most platforms.
You do realize that every single album Metallica has released in the last 20 years has peaked at #1 ? So did Chocolate Rain, what's your point?
(Somewhere, deep inside the band's studio...) Lars: James! James, check this shit out! It looks like Radiohead is making money on that thing we got all pissed off at ten years ago! Hetfield: Well, it would be nice to get some hipster groupies for once... Our fans are starting to get cellulite.
I was convinced that in the scientific programming world, people were still into Fortran as it grants a slight increase in speed over C for certain algorithms. Of course, this wouldn't have a broad _web presence_ due to the fact that realtime and mission critical applications aren't posted on the web. I think the limit of the fortran that still exists publicly would be the open source ATLASes and MATLAB clones (ie:matplotlib), as well as, of course, Linux itself.
Picture this, you could spend Petawatts of energy in two seconds to have lightning strike precisely where the leader of country X is standing. Can you? You will.
With those prices, I wonder how often they pay more for the bank account than is actually in it?
how do you find sellers? I want to sell my bank account info fro $1000.
1) Never 2) GFL
The price is directly related to how much money is in the account. Big accounts are $1000 (you can't just sell the money because it needs to be laundered and obfuscated- you need to have a trick to get the money out of the account, basically). People who sell bank accounts aren't dumb- they've just dumbed down the process; and if someone dumb enough to get caught buys one of their accounts, well... sucks to be them.
Does anyone here have a problem with the fact that HP is clearly not checking the contents of their drives before they leave the factory? Because I think that's pretty important.
Someone's going to reply "blah blah chain of supply blah blah limited liability" but (back in my day) a manufacturer was liable for tainted/poisoned product that originated at the manufacturer. Everyone should be able to demonstrate that a product works before selling it.
uh, you're misunderstanding a bit. Think about it like this: the signal that the DVD player holds is the "purest" A/V signal, since it is the closest to representing what's actually on the DVD. When it upscales the image, you don't (really) "lose" any information because you're just filling in gaps where there was no data before. When you compress the signal for the cable, you lose a bit of information simply by compression (unless you use HDMI).
As opposed to upscaling in the television, which means you're sending the original "pure" signal over the cable, losing information once when it's compressed, and then upscaling the bogus information loss on the television end, which incurs more data loss than losing scaled information.
Basically: (Picture * 10) - 2% is closer to the original than (Picture - 2%) * 10
Because the first picture offsets some of the data loss into "guessed" pixels anyway.
I know this sounds confusing as hell but I hope this helps.
Serious business, dude. I doubt you sincerely see this as anything more than FUD to silence smart people with prudent objections to the actions of the people in power.
I could stand in front of you and say that the charitable nature of Jesus's teachings make Christians good communists. It may even be true that Christianity is compatible with socialism, but that doesn't even imply that the vast majority of Christians are socialists. However, because of the stigma associated with terrorists and communists, I can start to shake your faith in Christians because of their socialist ideas.
Yeah, Engineers make good terrorists. You know who else makes good terrorists? Marines. See Charles Whitman, Lee Harvey Oswald. You know who else makes good terrorists? Mathematicians. Ted Kaczynski.
You know what else makes people terrorists? MURDERING LOTS OF PEOPLE. People act as if they can build a formula for finding at risk people, as if prevention is the number-one priority. No, we should be mitigating risk and increasing SECURITY. If we can figure out a way to do this without OPPRESSING A FUCKING SOCIAL GROUP, I would call it the biggest advance of the millenium.
One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist. There are people who think that the oppression of the English state justifies the actions of the IRA. For them, the IRA fights for freedom. For England, the IRA are terrorists. Buddhist monks are "terrorists" to the red Chinese- they certainly use tactics we would consider "terrifying", such as pouring gas on a reverend monk and lighting him on fire in opposition to the southern Vietnamese regime.
Right on AC. Seriously, I don't see why everyone's got such a hard-on for protecting the music industry. Maybe we're obsessed with this idea of the small musician being able to make it big, maybe we just like the sound of a corporation making money, but seriously, guys, SERIOUSLY. CUT THIS SHIT OUT. I'm sick and fucking tired of people defending the damn RIAA while they continue to make off with money they didn't earn. Did they compose the song? Is it part of their soul? A creation of their own? No! They sit there and exploit their artists so they can exploit their consumers. It cheapens the value of art, it destroys the beauty of sound, and it fucks us all over in a giant corporatist blood orgy.
Why is it corporatist? The entire legal backing behind a record distribution company- the idea of COPYRIGHT, is a law intended to CREATE a market for something unmarketable. Why can the music industry continue to use old, outdated media (CDs, record stores) when there is a BETTER media around? (FLAC, the internet) Because we are CORPORATISTS. We feel like we have the right nay the OBLIGATION to protect something someone made up in their heads. Fuck that shit. Music is meant to be enjoyed, not exploited. Seriously, FUCK that shit.
