Beats the hell out of Fedex, who don't come within 100 miles of me, so they receive my package on Monday, sit (possibly literally) on it until Friday, then drop it in the mail to the bus station (Which is literally 4 blocks from the Fedex office in that city!), after which I can pick it up at the local bus station probably on Wednesday.
And don't even get me started on their inability to do simple math and calculate taxes and duty properly, leading to my package getting stuck at customs for a week, without them informing me that it was there because tax was due.
I wouldn't mind knowing too. Going by the specs on the Liverpool telescope, they get 0.135 arcseconds/pixel using their best camera, which is about 250m/pixel at the moon.
The "bridge to nowhere" is a hell of a lot better idea than pundits slam it as.
Go look at a satellite map of Anchorage. To the east, mountains, to the south, mountains and water, to the north, mountains and water, to the west, water. The city is out of room to build anything. Build a bridge across the Knik Arm and suddenly you have huge tracts of land to build on.
Then how about we tell the multinationals where to get off and push heavy incentives to actual local businesses, who make up more of the economy than the huge companies and can't hold regions hostage when they throw a tantrum about not getting treated special?
They do react when votes are threatened, when Bell and Rogers tried to bring in Usage Based Billing, everyone cared about it, and the Tories could sniff the political winds....
That was during the run up to an election. Since the Tories got a majority, no election is going to happen for 4 years, so they can do pretty much whatever the hell they like for the next 3 years without having much effect on their votes.
That sounds more like an unusual form of anaphalxisis than intolerance.
The "oh no I can't breathe" reaction is not the only way it manifests (though that happens in about 70% of cases.) . Migraines and gastrointestinal distress are other potential results, among others.
It's only perjury if you file a takedown claiming a file is something you don't have the rights to
...which is exactly what happened in this case, assuming you agree that Warner's agent knew or should have known that their automated tool was subject to error.
Nope, they had the rights they claimed to have. The fact that the files they wanted taken down had nothing to do with the films they had rights to is irrelevant to the letter of the DMCA.
Though hopefully the judge will be unamused enough to interpret in your view as the spirit of the law.
They're electron guns (basically little wee linear particle accelerators), and yes, which flies directly into thick leaded glass (which is most of the reason why CRTs are so fucking heavy) and doesn't leave the monitor.
Respiratory problems are not the only type of anaphylaxis. It's very common (70% of cases), but it often presents in other ways, such as a rash or hives, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fainting, cardiac arrhythmia, etc.
Intolerance means you a problem of some sort digesting a food (e.g. lactose intolerance, where you lack the enzyme (lactase) necessary to digest lactose)
An allergy means your immune system goes berserk in the presence of it.
Nope, the DMCA is more stupidly written than you think it is.
It's only perjury if you file a takedown claiming a file is something you don't have the rights to (i.e. I send a takedown request for a Disney movie, which I don't hold rights to.). There is nothing in the law as written that requires the subject of the takedown have anything to do with the work you are claiming rights to.
They never made RAM, they came up with the specification for RDRAM. And they then got their lunch eaten when DDR became available for the Pentium 4 and offered almost as good performance for much cheaper and without the eccentricities and then went sue happy over it.
Though their new XDR2 RAM looks promising. It's supposed to be used in AMD's upcoming 7900-series videocards.

Freepress.net has a lovely illustration of the history of the baby bells.

That's the same thing people said about Ma Bell..yet they got broke up.
Yes, after having a monopoly for about 60 years.
Here's a nicer graphical version.

Sasktel does the same thing with a 900m maximum loop length.
They're also rolling out FTTP, starting Real Soon Now, supposedly covering everywhere in all the major cities by 2017.
VDSL2 offers 50Mbps out to a kilometre or 100Mbps at 500m.
The local phone company uses a maximum loop length of 900m with FTTN and FTTP getting rolled out in the near future.
Hardly required. They offered it as a condition of being allowed to merge with NBC.
A kickback in the form of that they offered this so the NBC merger would be allowed.
If a person wants to keep something private do not post it on Facebook!
Furthermore, spy on everyone who knows your name to ensure that they don't post anything about you.

Creative commons licensing eliminates the possibility of your idea being patented and stolen from you.
Hah. The patent will still get awarded. Publishing it will merely means it takes 5 years instead of 10 years to get it invalidated in court.

Yes, that is what I meant.
Besides, the far edge prefixes sound amusing.
The Landauer limit gives a lower bound on how much energy it takes to change a bit at kT*ln2
Where k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the circuit temperature in kelvins.
So, near absolute zero, somewhere on the order of a yoctajoule per bit change.
to the relevant Court of Appeals -- I'm not sure what that is officially called for the D.C. Circuit
It's the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit

The router is a cheap switching power supply.
The laptop is probably a cheap ballast for the florescent backlight.
The CRT sound is a cheap flyback transformer and will sing at about 15.7 kilohertz, which is in the upper end of adult human hearing.

Intolerant != allergic.
