IRS Publication 525 (2008), Taxable and Nontaxable Income
Illegal activities. Income from illegal activities, such as money from dealing illegal drugs, must be included in your income on Form 1040, line 21, or on Schedule C or Schedule C-EZ (Form 1040) if from your self-employment activity.
That thing will only do the infrared and some visual range stuff. It won't have some of the stuff Hubble does, like UV, which a ground telescope can't do.
Yes. I have a small generic self-powered USB hub that does exactly that. Worked nicely for charging by Motorola KRZR, at least until I lost that phone.
No, an unpowered hub is a single device as far as electricity is concerned, but it's multiple devices according to the software. Everything plugged into the hub would be limited to 500mA total. If you only have one device on the hub, it's functionally identical to having it directly connect, aside from some small amount taken by the hub's electronics, but if you had, say, 4 devices plugged into the hub, they would need to keep their draw below 500mA combined. if 2 of those both tried drawing 300mA at the same time, it probably wouldn't work.
As for the driver, how is the device going to communicate with the system to provide the driver unless a driver is already installed? It's a chicken-egg loop. Obvious solution would be to have a generic basic driver (like the now ubiquitous USB mass storage driver used for flash drives) to would allow for driver acquisition from the device, but you'd first need to standardize that and then get that driver implemented and widely distributed.
This seems to be a case of de facto functionality, as I have numerous such things that will draw more than the 100mA limit, like my laptop's cooling pad, which draws about 400mA, and the data lines on that are just left open, so there's definitely no driver getting involved.
Must be something odd about my laptop's cooling pad as it can draw roughly 400mA without any driver stuff. the data lines are open circuited, with the Vcc to the fan motors and the ground through a switch to same.
Sounds like a good idea. You just need to get the manufacturer's to do that.
Which is never going to happen without regulation, as they make a decent amount of money selling magical cables and power bricks.
I have only seen one phone with a real standard (not "let's put 2.5V across the data lines for incompatibility purposes" or "requires a special driver on the computer to bestow it's blessing to charge the phone" or other such nonsense) USB connection.
There's still several companies that make good mechanical buckling spring keyboards, such as Das keyboards, Unicomp (these guys also make various special purpose layouts, such as terminal keyboards), and others. And there are numerous sites that still sell the IBM model M keyboards.
As far as I understand, the problem with bacteriophages is that they're highly specialized. A specific phage virus only work against a few specific strains of bacteria, so you need to figure out exactly what strain of bacteria the person has before you can treat it, which can be difficult in many cases, whereas a broad spectrum antibiotic doesn't require that.
Consider that if you do a WHOIS search on a non-business IP, you're likely going to get the ISP's info, not the info of the person using that IP, so I would consider that to be more like an unlisted number than a number in the phone book.
Though I'm not able to find any precedents regarding whether a warrant is required to request unlisted phone numbers either, so this may be a moot argument.

No, it's plutocrats that donate.
How does the system even boot? Last time I checked, windows will fail to boot if you disable the remote procedure call service.
Requesting citation as I would be interested in reading those findings. And it would be useful ammunition in future debates.
Probably not, but it means that you are staight or bi.
Or live in Massachusetts, Connecticut, or California or Canada or one the various other countries that legally recognisance same sex marriages.

This isn't x86 either. It's ARM based.
We ban R-rated films from minors without a parent accompanying the kids.
Please cite the relevant law. I am quite sure that it does not exist.

And in all likelihood be far less significant, as the browser in question wouldn't be so damn tightly integrated into the OS.
And apparently so do both of my laptops for allowing it.
The issue is that 1.23 is from over two years ago.
I believe the current version of CPAN shell is 1.93.
Don't forget that IBM tried to sue Compaq (for copyright infringement on their BIOS, I believe) and lost.
AFAICT, most Linux distros (or maybe it's integrated into the kernel) have a generic "act like a dumb charger" driver for that case.

and possibly even digital optical output.
I believe you're thinking of SPDIF over TOSLINK, which looks like a 3.5mm jack and you can even stick a 3.5mm plug into it, but it won't do anything.
That's not the filetable, that's the 1024 vs. 1000 issue.
On a TB drive, that disagreement gives you 931GB.

Creeping along is more profitable than soaring ahead.

How about if the phone number is unlisted?
