"Sir, a zone transfer is when you type 'dig google.com axfr'. It is a standard feature of the DNS protocol and software suite. The only way it can be abused is if it is left unprotected by the network administrator, much the same as a house can be abused if you leave your doors and windows unlocked." if you leave your doors and windows unlocked it's still a crime to "abuse" the house, it almost sounds like you're arguing that zone transferring is trespassing

The answer is you don't use a wired ethernet - Xerox designed ethernet to be wireless back in the seventies, that's why it's called ethernet. Running it over wires was only ever supposed to be a short term hack while they sorted out getting the radio link working. And Apple fanbois aren't expected to be technical enough to worry about security issues.
even 30 years later i need one PC that can be connected via wire to the router to configure the wireless settings. i'm not sure i'd trust everything to work right configuring that over the wireless itself, since you're liable to block yourself out. that's pretty sporadic usage and you wouldn't use it all the time (just like a DVD drive), but if you do any traveling you might also want one for those antiquated hotels that only have wired networks.
It's quite obvious that cgi can only go to real life quality and not beyond. We're already there and we have the instruments to create a movie that could fool anyone believing it's non-cgi. i disagree, i still don't think i've seen a CGI depiction of a human that is that close to real life quality. Beowulf 3D was pretty amazing, but not nearly there. movies like the Matrix and Star Wars series had pretty amazing effects, but they're far better at making non-human characters or objects seem real than they are at depicting animated humans. there's just something to the way that humans move that our brain can easily recognize as right or not-right, and they haven't been able to overcome that. i can't get to the server that hosts TFA, but it sounds like they're not really making CGI people so much as replicating actual people that were filmed. while interesting in itself, that doesn't even seem that helpful to the process of movie-making since it's not making new things possible but rather making easily done things slightly cheaper (hell, aren't most extras volunteers?).
your friend didn't invent this theory, everyone cites it to backup every half remembered "history lesson". pornographers aren't the biggest spenders, they'll use whatever's cheapest which usually means what's already established and makes them trend-followers not trend-setters. regardless, it's obvious that pornographers have no use for anything that's only 3cm

you should submit an article about "The Origin of the Slashdot Article about the Origin of the IPhone", and then submit it again the next day with slightly different wording
I don't think that there was ever a time when Ada was a popular teaching language for any purpose other than coding in Ada. i don't know about popular, but i grew up next to a major air force base and i believe that both of the state schools in the vicinity used Ada quite a lot, because loads of their graduates went to work for one of the local government contracting companies and Ada was mandatory on a lot of air force contracts (and lots of their night school students were military or contractors). if the military is no longer demanding Ada to be used on their projects, these two guys probably have a lot to be sad about in general
(Speaking of which, the Blizzard downloader always closed right after finishing. How exactly is that helping anyone?) i quit playing about 6 months ago, but iirc it actually didn't quit until you hit OK on the patch notes that appeared after you applied the patch. besides, you're still able to do a decent amount of sharing of the partial segments that you get before you've got the full 100%. i regularly would get less than 5-10% of the full patch from the HTTP direct download, it seemed like the smaller patches were the ones that had the least peer-to-peer sharing and those are also the ones that should hurt blizzard the least.
So basically....don't use NSI for domain lookups. Use someone else. Maybe a company that won't try to screw you. or if you really think you want to get a domain name, figure out who has the best prices and then do your searches there so it won't matter that they'll lock you into them
I live in an area where that is not near any water, has only intermittent sun and wind so another power source is necessary. these problems are among many that go away when you move out of your parents' basement
it was confusing to me at first too, but this wording indicates to me that they've decided to split The Hobbit into two parts:
Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh to executive produce two films based on "The Hobbit"
i don't think they'd use that phrasing if the second movie was just "based on the characters" or "based on the world" and i don't think they'd try to invent new narrative anyway, so it sounds to me like it's really two movies about the one book. there was definitely a lot more film-worthy action in The Hobbit than any single one of the LoTR books, and by the last of the LoTR movies it was clear that he preferred to let things run long anyway so it's not terribly surprising that they'd split it.
actually they divided the buck into 10 dimes and then passed them all in parallel.
seriously though, it was only a few years ago that people were scoffing at the usefulness of dual processor desktop machines and arguing the value of being able to run multi-threaded apps and multiple apps faster at the expense of poorer performance on the vast majority of apps and games which people were running in isolation. it doesn't seem like applications or operating systems have seen a major overhaul since that time (just incremental gains), but the enthusiasm with which they're piling on more and more cores has drowned out all the questions people had. i think this has more to do with chip marketers needing to be able to trumpet something with great excitement than actual newfound utility of multiprocessing
"eliminating the 1500 lb airbags for landing has its appeal"
"Landing on land lets it be lighter, check."
The airbags are used for landing on LAND.
They are not flotation devices. Any thing that can fly is going to light enough float on water if it doesn't leak.
The airbags are to reduce the impact. this had me interested because i could have sworn that they did have flotation devices on the previous rocket capsules, but according to this page the only flotation devices were [presumably small] airbags that were used to right the capsule and a flotation collar that was attached by the pickup crew that ensured that the capsule stayed upright after the hatch was opened.
There are enough quality theme repositories for Wordpress that people can have top 10 lists of their favorite collections. blogs seemingly exist to create top 10 lists, so the fact that someone has created one in no way should be used as an indicator of the amount of quality anything. somewhere someone is working on a "Top 10 Numbers from 1 to 10 List" right now, and it'll be posted on Digg the minute it's done
that reminds me of a funny story. i wrote a bot several years ago that would send tells to people at random from a set of messages. if anyone replied to them, it'd send another message...as a matter of fact, it'd keep doing this until they stopped replying. they were really nonsense sentences, so most people ignored them from the start but even those that didn't quickly got the idea when it cycled back on the same message more than once. one time though i remember this one guy replying back to this bot as if it was a real person for almost 2 hours!
