Ask yourself this.. if American soldiers were attacked and defeated.. and then the attackers came back and creamed the wounded, how would you feel? What sort of outrage would you see in the American press?
During the 2004 Canadian federal election there was a similar phenomenon with discrepancies between polls and the actual results. An observation was made by Rex Murphey on the CBC the day after, and it went something like this:
My wife has been answering calls from pollsters and was exit-polled after she voted yesterday. After receiving so many questions in such a short period of time she came up with a plan to protect her right to privacy while still answering the questions: She lied to them.
At first when I read the post title I thought Microsoft was going to have an actual baking competition. "Wow," I thought, "That would be an awsome way to spread the antiphishing message to the common Windows user." Alas, it was not to be. Maybe I was just overcome by the image of apple pie cooling by the monitor, fresh from the gentoo box. *sigh* Memories...
As sweet as that sounds (and it does sound tasty), blu-ray has a higher bandwidth than SATA which would be a greater boost in overall performance.
As for multiple disk games, well, I'm sure that we haven't seen the end of those. Multi blu-ray disk games could be just massive, although again this wouldn't directly mean an increase in enjoyment.
Personally I'm waiting for multiple dedicated AI cores so that the damn bots will find cover when I shoot at them, maybe get some decent squad movement happening.
I agree, the massive storage increases on blu-ray would allow game developers to pack more content into one game. Although, this wouldn't neccessarily result in better games or higher selling ones. The potential is there, though.
Since they are on the high seas, there is no regulatory body with jurasdiction, and they can use whatever spectrum they want, however they want.
This is true. However, there is also no regulatory body to protect them. The 200 mile international limit includes the provision that ships can exercise flag state jurisdiction in cases of piracy or slavery outside their waters; one could pay a country with a navy to protect oneself.
This is already happening. In fact, it seems to be a hobby for wifi enthusiasts to cruise around their neighborhoods mapping the access points. There are already several scripts to put the GPS data onto satellite images and a company called SkyHook is currently gathering information about wireless APs for an E-911 system.

Do you remember Operation Anaconda?
You, my friend, have described what's happened to Vancouver perfectly.
What's that? Is it a VPN? Is it a P2P? No! It's...DARKNET!

Hot damn, I love a good slashdot shakespeare thread!
I likes the sounds of that! It's no fun losing your sound effects halfway through a lighstaber battle, but can it boot gentoo?
I would buy a new macbook just for this feature (well, that and tri-booting osx, xp, and gentoo).
I think somebody's done this before. You people and your sequential processing.
UPS, on the other hand, remains friendly to software pirates worldwide.
When will scientists get around to what's really important? When will they make hot snow fall up?

Who rhymes "pirate" withe "ran great"? Who, I ask you?
A lot is two words, you insensitive clod!
Leave it to Jack Thompson to get kicked out of Alabama for improper behavior.
Beat me to it.

This is by far the most helpful post on the entire thread. Way to earn that +5.
Then I suppose the boat would have to be registered somewhere else for this to work.
It has a battery, yes? Haul it out.
