If war is what he wants, war is what he will get! This is sure to drive him more nuts then the mosquitoes from his little ultra violet toy... Which by the way is about 5 times as costly as my solution. Use with extreme caution... The device I speak of is called "sonic nausea". This is the blurb from their site:
"Sonic Nausea is a small electronic device which can really turn one's stomach. It generates a unique combination of ultra-high frequency sound waves which soon leads most in its vicinity to queasiness. It can also cause headaches, intense irritation, sweating, imbalance, nausea, or even vomiting. Hiding this device in your inconsiderate neighbors house might put an end to their late night parties. The abusive bureaucrat's office, the executive lunchroom... the possibilities are endless for that small portion of inventive payback. The unique soundwave characteristics make directional source determination difficult. Powered by one 9-volt battery (not included). For extended run time two AA batteries in a battery pack with transistor clips (available from most electronics stores) can be used instead. Use with discretion."

If you do go with this method, please post a follow up or pictures:)
I was under the impression that prostitutes perform their services because they are in need of money and or drugs/alcohol. I never really imagined too many of them to go home to a computer and hop on the internet. Let alone know anything about programming a website. Maybe they head the local library to check their email between shifts. Do you think they send out spam? I bet if you went on monster you could find a slew of prostitutes (maybe the AOL member directory is a better place to look).
Bush should push for congress to create a new branch of government that builds virtual police that must be included in all games. I think this guys character should get the death penalty. Maybe old school style... "off with his head". Id watch that on a webcast! They could do it over and over again in a different way to please everyone.
The Xbox360 title will now be changed to xbox180. The HD-dvd drive will be replaced with an original xbox standard DVD rom. Wireless control will be replaced with an original standard xbox wired controller. 20 gig HD will be removed entirely. Launch date titles will include solitaire, minesweeper and Pac-man. Other retail titles include: demo versions of GTA5, Halo3 and GrandTourismo95, which are scheduled for release by summer of 2006.
Isn't the whole XBOX360 release starting to sound like the Vista release? Just a flashy (better graphic engine) version of the original Xbox/Windows XP.
Virtual red light district! Who cares! Its not illegal. The "red light district" in Amsterdam is a bunch of prostitutes. The use of.xxx doesnt even compare to that. Not like it very hard to find.com porn anyways.
Oh its safe and secure. When they see little johnny with a laptop hooked up to a slot machine. big Tony, Vinny the slug and Jimmy the hand bring you in the back to introduce you to the hammer and the vice. Hows that for security?
Did everyone forget about google wallet? Mix that with itunes. Now you convert itunes into a web services (I hate the software) and you can use google to make micropayments.
The IM industry is no where near perfect. There's a lot of room for improvement and change. I personally use an old version of AIM because I hate the new bulky version with all the stupid games and junk. Every time I click for someone's info I accidentally click that send a greeting crap. If anyone could just into the industry and make a presence it is google. They dont need to put ads in the client itself. Look at the desktop search, theres no ads in there. Theres so many neat features they could add that would not weigh down the client either. Many people have mentioned logging, with access from anywhere. Well if this was web based it can easily have some text relevant ads on it. If they made a web version of the IM client, they could do the same. Theres no positive effect of google making a cross platform instant messenger that is in use with there competition. Why would google help Microsoft or AOL? Theres no benefit from it. They would develop there own protocol. All the geeks and techies would download it and try it. I would surely love a client that isnt full of crap. Google could also sell corp instant messengers. There huge money to be made in that industry. Integrate IM with gmail and blogger and you control the way people communicate.
I spent 3 months working for a medium sized business (popular enough that I cant mention it). The company has several offices and about 500 employees, 300 employees that use computers on a day to day basis. The IT department consists of about 8 people. What did I learn? One of the poorest setups I have seen. I would say they are lucky the system runs on a day to day basis. I will give them some credit, they hired a new guy to run the department just before they hired me. He is making changes in the right direction. But im very suprised that a company like this would be so poorly setup. Like many other interns I did a lot of sitting around doing nothing. Played on the internet. But when I was needed I provided more value then they were expecting I think (should have paid me more!). Overall a good experience. I learned what not to do and def picked up a few things from the seasoned staff.
There's a whole lot of back and forth going on here. The only thing everyone can agree on is that the spammer deserved the fine. Now everyone wants to know why Microsoft is entitled to that fine? I personally believe they are entitled to it. First and most obvious they are the ones that created the law suit and did the actual suing. Microsoft isn't a government agency, what they win shouldn't be stripped from them. In all honesty if Microsoft didn't sue this guy, he would probably still be spamming. In which case no one is better off. Secondly anyone and everyone can sue. I know I'm going to get shit about how the American legal system sucks and blah blah blah. But that's a perk/pitfall of living in this country. As far as Microsoft donating the money, it's a brilliant move from a business standpoint. As mentioned earlier the cost of an advertising campaign would far exceed that of the $5m donation. The donation created goodwill and great PR. It's almost impossible to put a price on goodwill. People need to stop looking at Microsoft (and other corporations) as a public service. These companies exist to make money. Period. Microsoft did a good thing, they are the heroes here. They are the only ones who stood up against this guy and dished out the cash to do it. Yes the Million bucks in legal fees is pocket change to them. But I don't see anyone else willing to anti up. Plus if you really wanted an argument to show they are directly affected. They own an email service. I'm sure millions of this guys email has gone through there servers at some point, costing them money and inconveniencing clients. Congratulations Microsoft on your victory!
Everyone who thinks that Gates is going to dress up in a batman costume is very wrong. The costume would be more like Howard Sterns fart man!
I think they did. Don't you remember the most clever, inspirational, and brilliant line in the whole movie?
"This is where we broadcast our pirate signal and hack into the Matrix."
But they really only broadcasted from the ships. Thats like using a sat. dish in conjunction with your pda. Just doesnt seem practical. But the point I was getting at was it would be cool to go anywhere and "jack in". After a long night of boozing with Morphius and bad sex with Trinity, you can jack in for a quickie with the lady in the red dress.
I would actually think Bed, Bath, and Beyond's return rate would be slightly higher. Considering any bulk mailer they are sending is probablly to an existing database of customers. Granted the random coupons in the circular may be more along the line of a 2%-3% return rate. But targeted mailers usually are higher then "unsolicited" marketing. Plus everyone could use a new set of silk sheets.
Everyone keeps mentioning that amazon has dist centers. Well what about Walmart? Its not like they dont have enough locations, companies, money and customers. They seemed to have failed in a matter of weeks. I encourage the competition. The entrance of Blockbuster has lowered industry prices. With an entrance from Amazon, price should drop even more. I wish them luck.
Many movies that take place in the future seem to still use hard lines. The matrix is a prime example. My question is why didnt they just use wireless (WiMAX or the like)? It would hurt less and they could jack in from up to 30 miles away! Granted using current wifi, agent smith could easily hack the poor encryption. But from what I hear WiMAX has good potential.
Anonymous Coward you absolutly right... As a consumer I would really like to pay more for my products just because I feel bad that a company like sony doesnt already make enough. Maybe we should just do away with international trade and selling and keep all the money circulating within our own country. Yes it is "Sonys shit" and they can do what they like with it, but I would like to see them remove products from retail stores/resellers and see how well they do on there own. If the profit margin was going to be higher they would have done this a long time ago.
Sony is being greedy over a few dollars. This company is buying and selling mass amounts of usits. Sony should be happy they are getting there wholesale rate, im sure it doesnt change that much from country to country, its all relative. The whole point of internet commerce is having the ability to find competitive prices and order from anywhere in the world.
I think many people are overlooking the issue. Cisco has there thumbs up there ***. If they don't know how the password got compromised in the first place, how do they expect to prevent it from reoccurring? So everyone changes their passwords, the same exploit or hack is utilized again, and we are back to where we started... This just goes to show that even the security provider isn't secure, no one is safe, nothing is secure and its time to take security seriously.
Find the root of the problem... and cut it off at its knees...
wow. What a huge difference. It actually loads fast. I think they have a lot of work to do. Googles is pretty quick, especially compared to Microsofts.

How long would it actually take the elevator to travel from earth to within reach of the moon? Or even further...

I will just tell my clients that my email provider was having trouble connecting to MySQL and I apologize that I couldnt get back to them

What use do you have for youngcumdrippingteens.com or bendmeoversidewaysandplowmeforaweek.com.
Virtual red light district! Who cares! Its not illegal. The "red light district" in Amsterdam is a bunch of prostitutes. The use of .xxx doesnt even compare to that. Not like it very hard to find .com porn anyways.
Theres are positive features of this for the government. Any newly formed .xxx sites can easily be managed and blocked for net-nanny purposes.

wow. What a huge difference. It actually loads fast. I think they have a lot of work to do. Googles is pretty quick, especially compared to Microsofts.
well I blame MS for sucking. That rubbish "start" is a poor excuse for a heavily loaded and slow version of google (kinda)
