I find it interesting that hobbyist have been directly exposed to lead fumes from soldering for decades, with no apparent ill effect. In fact, they go on to become great technicians and engineers.
One of my favorite quotes about the matter:
"Computer games can't affect kids that much. I mean, if Pacman had affected us as kids we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching pills and listening to repetitive music."
While the computer is on it's more or less at operating temperature. When you shut it down, the parts contract back to their room temperature size at different rates. This breaks solder joints and sometimes the interfaces inside of the integrated circuits as well.
"Computer games can't affect kids that much. I mean, if Pacman had affected us as kids we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching pills and listening to repetitive music."
As a matter of fact:
'Musical instrument shops must pay an annual royalty to cover shoppers who perform a recognizable riff before they buy, thereby making a "public performance".'
A 4 dimensional Minkowski space is necessary to get any meaningful predictions out of special relativity.
Four dimensions are needed to be consistent with Einstein's definition of simultaneous events and time. Specifically, you need at least four orthogonal coordinates to identify an event, thus the events exists in at least a four dimensional space.
Scientific honesty is the core and foundation of all of our discoverys.
If kepler modified his measurements to fit into the then current view of things, astronomy would have been set back 100 years.

Sadly, it grokked correctly anyway.

Incredibly, the slashcode provides the correct title: "Shteven's Comment".
Why can't they just catpure the stream at the PBX and email the daily mp3 files to the interested party?
Not if they get the data from OnStar...
Tell that to the soldiers in Iraq.

As long as those fools have money, who cares!

Hopefully it will prompt the user for each full album that could be transfered. Otherwise it's just plain madness.

I can show that we live in at least four dimensions, and it's suspected that we live in ten or more.
How on earth would your average 'linux user' wipe the harddrive?
At worst they would destroy their own documents, which should be backed up nightly anyway.
Opps, looks like it is.
How long before it's non-volatile?
I believe anything on television should be fair game to copy and share. If you were afraid of distribution, you shouldn't have distributed it.

We desperately need a distributed, redundant, peer-to-peer data storage system for wiki type web objects.
Volunteers install a program, and a user selectable amount of bandwidth and hard disk space is dedicated to the wiki system.
The main web site simply redirects the request to a peer that has a current version.
If the peer responds that it's overloaded, the server distributes the content to another peer, and redirects later requests.
Backup storage is located were the main servers are now, of course.
What happens when someone makes a worm that changes legitimate IDs to random ones from the pirate list?
