I'm guessing the second head is rather more expensive; in dual-sided laserdisc players its apparently more economical to have a mechanism for moving the head to the other side of the disc (a nightmare of mechanics in there...)
Congress isn't in charge of enforcing the laws. You're looking for the executive part of the government to make the crackdown. Of course, congress passes the budget, which has a line in there (or should have a line in there...) for expenditures in enforcing spam laws.
Its not like the 'large, easily abused' populations are getting paid an incredible surplus that makes them more likely to be targetted for spam. The whole idea is that you don't pay a Chinese or Indian worker anywhere near what you pay someone in America.
The majority of people generate income by exchanging time for money. There's no real reason why the inverse shouldn't be true (indeed, a business owner is essentially trading his money in exchange for employees' time, so that s/he doesn't have to do the work)
Reminds me of reading Ringworld; when the power failed they were so dependant on a particular kind of superconductor (which was eaten by a alien bacteria) that the entire civilization fell. It was to the point that buildings required power to stand up (well, float above the ground, but the drop kinda sucked)
Actually, they're not image adverts, but the much-lauded Google ads (you can, of course, select a setting to revert to traditional graphical ads if you so desire)
That was *supposed* to be a satirical adaptation of the parent... see, the juxtaposition of an absolute dictator and a party boss... the government sold to the highest corporate bidder...
Saddam Hussein = totalitarian dictatorship not giving anyone any rights only Saddam has power, absolute and totally corrupted power...
Liberated Iraq = democracy offering freedom for ANYONE to build a political party and candidates to sell for market value or give away free (whatever the the party boss desires)...
You are 100% correct. In fact, the first paragraph of the GPL says that the license is an a-typical software license in that it protects the user before the author: The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
All of the lines along which plates move apart on Earth are underwater; being that there isn't a goodly amount of surface water on Mars I would presume that we would be able to see the stretch lines fairly easily. The compression lines form mountain ranges; I don't know if there are any non-volcanic mountains on Mars?
I see creationism as a way of just not bothering to figure out the past. We don't have a good idea of what happened more than a few thousand years ago. Solution? The world simply didn't exist. Where did the universe come from? God made it. Even if they acknowledge something like the Big Bang, there's still an orign for that initial mass, once again the notion of a God relieves them of a need to learn more.
Every Outlook user I've tried to convert to Thunderbird has turned it down for lack of a calendar. Everyone else uses some form of webmail interface, because they can't figure out how to configure Outlook (or Thunderbird...).
Sure, provided GM had a good reason... like, hypothetically, they had a clear communication from Molech demanding the sacrifice of x children in exchange for continued existance.
Of course, no one is convinced by the ravings of people about signs from their deities, which is why there are so few believers today...
Most mainstream Linux distributions have far more extras than Windows does. My default Win2K setup gave me a basic text editor, a calculator, a simple graphics app, and WMP. The last major Linux distribution I installed (Mandrake) was 3 CDs, and gave me 2 Office suites, a calculator, 3 graphics packages including GIMP, and 3 media players (xine, xmms, xawtv). Of course, there are smaller distros available, like DamnSmallLinux, that give you only the basics, but the systems people would actually be using (Fedora, Mandrake, Debian) come with an incredible amount of excess.
I'm thinking they'll chalk it all up to piracy, then try to sue someone to recoup the losses. After all, its not like most of what Hollywood has churned out in the past few years was crap...
Why stay home? A theater has a brighter, clearer (35mm film is effectively 2-3000p) screen, and a better sound system. I can barely see paying $4 to rent a DVD-grade movie; $9-11 is just nuts.
Its really a bad blurb; more like the lack of units available for rental in the local vicinity (the closest one he could find was a couple hundred miles out).
Actually, in Outlook you don't need to manually click on the attachments to cause problems. The preview pane, unless otherwise configured, is basically a fully functional web browser capable of running just about any script you can think of (why you need that in email, I do not know...). Of course, configuring your software in a secure manner is a user responsibility (though, I would consider not running problematic software would be a user responsibility to; unfortunately that means not actually turning the machine on!)

You don't already have a big aluminum fin on there, to increase speed? If it weren't for that and these v-tech stickers, it would be unusably slow ...
