It's quite possible the person who was elected was only elected because of the problems of the last election. What is his motivation to have the system fixed?
One reason I'll never move from a PDA onto a cellphone/PDA (besides the fact I dislike cellphones and the prohibitive cost):
They all seem to have an attached keyboard. I like my keyboard to be big enough so I can use my fingers to type on it and detachable (so I don't have this big keyboard all the time).
I don't get your point actually. I'm assuming your question was asking how does this benefit Joe Public. If not then by all means ignore this post.
Joe Public does the exact same thing he does now. With the knowledge e-mails are from where they claim to be from.
Actually that would be an easy fix. I create a filter on my end which would go "IF domain not in address book put into folder SUSPECT" I then check, oh it looks like someone from paypal e-mailed me, why did this get put in here, I better look closer, oh it's paypa1.com not paypal.
DomainKeys makes filters useful by allowing me to be certain the person e-mailing is really from the domain they claim to be (i.e. they pretend to be e-mailing from paypal.com but are really e-mailing from omfg.com).
I disagree. "America was discovered, this invention/agorithm was created." To discover something implies it was there and you merely found it. Now if you want to claim Algorithms are discoveries because the potential of them exists then by that logic so are books, movies and machines.
Doesn't work like that in C/C++. Don't believe me? Try compiling it;) You won't get any errors and you'll see a vote for kerry == a vote for kerry and bush.
Public school kids (under 13) probably shouldn't be buying games without a parent accompanying them.
Who are you to say yay or nay to that for every parent? Who are the store clerks to say yay or nay for every parent?
Let's say my parents are very busy a lot of the time, they only get saturday and sunday off. They do their shopping on thursday late-night shopping. The last thing they want to do is go to the shops with me Saturday morning to rent a game. But I'm eager to play the new game so I go along with my buddy (whose parents are much like mine) and we go to the store. But now we can't play the game EVEN THOUGH OUR PARENTS ARE FINE WITH IT.
Now fortunately I'm not in that situation and never have been. But quite a few kids I know have been. And personally my parents didn't want to go to the store with us every time so I'd go with my friend. They didn't care what video game I rented.
And it was oh so very frustrating and annoying for my parents and myself (and my friends) to have to get an adult to buy movie tickets for us. This will be even MORE frustrating now with renting games.
If your talking about 10 year olds, how very sad. When I was 10 the last thing I wanted to do was carry a photo ID as a matter of routine, I didn't even have one.
I agree, I also think shop-keepers should only enter contracts with their own race. Everyone knows those whites are mostly immature and therefore wouldn't be able to handle a violent game.
You find it difficult to differentiate between reality and fiction. Not all people have this problem. And not all kids do. Should kids not be allowed to read Harry Potter books because SOME people can't tell the difference between real and fiction? After all, the kid might try to jump off a building with a broom stick thinking he can fly.
Should a kid be stopped from reading superman comics for the same reason?
If someone doesn't like a post they give it negative mod points, it doesn't matter how they mod it, as long as it's modded in a negative manner. Troll, Off-topic and Redundant are all used in this manner.
Currently they're surviving on advertisements (as far as I know), but they have a back-up plan if that ever fails. You see, they have a lot of your personal data that CURRENTLY isn't used for any malicious purposes. Currently.

Can't seem to swing a dead cat in my office without knocking a PDA ... I've personally tried

Just seemed amusing to me. Don't mind me

this guy sounds like a nut
He's an American what can you expect? Oh shit, maybe I shouldn't have said that. You guys are all canadian right? I can't ever tell the difference.
ooooh shit. There goes my Karma.

You're kidding right?
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
int c;
int bush = 0;
int yaddayadda = 0;
int kerry = 0;
int nader = 0;
for (int count = 0; count < 5; count++
{
switch (c) {
cin >> c;
case 0:
yaddayadda += 1;
case 1:
nader += 1;
case 2:
kerry += 1;
case 3:
bush += 1;
}
}
cout << "YaddaYadda = " << yaddayadda << endl << "Kerry = " << kerry << endl << "Bush = " << bush << endl << "Nader = " << nader << endl;
}
Oh you're right. So very hard. Took 2 mins.
At first that didn't make sense as I read it as "Wino shopping carts..."
I bet the shopping carts will also be pretty smug too.
And yet High school students aren't doing too well and 30 year olds are constantly in accidents, hmmm...

So which one is fictional? Bill Gates or security?
Nothing beats APPLE!
I believe gravity does. Don't believe me? Try dropping it off a building.

Oh yes, this is such a very good system.

In space no-one hears you freeze shit. But if you do it in front of the hubble telescope everyone sees you do it.

Welcome to slashdot, you must be new here.
And yet it appears to go Google's route with not offering support out of Microsoft products.
Tell me again how they're staying in business?

Actually a monopoly is when you have _no_ choice.
Phew, all this time I've been worried about the convicted monopoly Microsoft when they're not really a monopoly.
