I once bought a computer from a small shop which I intended to use as a linux server. The shop put windows on it as a test and right before they gave it to me told me they would wipe the disk "so I couldn't use their copy of windows". The guy hit enter on some erasure program and immediately said "okay thats done" so obviously it wasn't erased, just unlinked.
I'd be very interested to hear about the technology NASA invented that would be capable of landing anything in such an inhospitable environment... or for that matter, simply making it to the surface still intact and somehow managing to communicate this fact to us.
Police in my state got into trouble once for printing out license and registration data and using the printouts as scrap paper in their front office, so if they had to write something down for a member of the public they might get somebody else's details on the back.
I found it a bit creepy when searches like that started finding the slashdot article I was currently reading. Presumably something to do with referrer links which trigger the google spider.
whoops. I got Dotcom mixed up with, uh, Julian Assange (who I believe is an AU citizen, yes?). I'll just go back to nursing this booze now.
Yeah Julian is one of us. In fact I know a guy who had the pleasure of having his system broken in to by Mr Assange. For a geek he is strangely concerned about what people say about him. Most of us don't give a shit.
That's where the FBI's case is going to go. Everything I've read tells me that the FBI, their Australian exponents, and the other parties involved broke too many regs to be able to bring a real case against Megaupload. This is just one more nail in the coffin.
Don't you mean NZ? Australia doesn't really have a role here. Which is not to say that the australian security services wouldn't jump at the chance to help the FBI in a case like this.
The whole point of the Hamas missile campaign is to draw fire from Israel and harm civilian populations in Gaza. I mean, its not going to make Israel go away, is it? Hamas wants to hurt people in Gaza who don't support them, and radicalise more of them into supporting extremists like Hamas.
So why is the Israli military working for Hamas? There is an election on, thats why.
Our NTP sync came from a remote site and they were doing Y2K testing. Clocks jumped forward to March 2000 and screwed up the timestamps on our binaries. In the end we had to touch backwards to get our build system working again.

I thought maybe it was in firmware but that doesn't explain how it phoned home.

Lots of landers have operated on the surface of Venus.

Yeah its a hoax
The kidget would be useful for running cables under false floors.
recommend an angle grinder over a wood lathe.
A contractor actually did cut aluminum with a saw in our computer room and got aluminum shards over everything.
A few LED torches
A tool for checking power outlets to see if there is any power
Maybe a breakout box
How about a hand held vacuum cleaner?
Because you make more money on maintenance. Thats on the of the biggest problems.

Sounds pretty normal to me but companies hate mailing lists. They hate maintaining them and they hate people broadcasting information.

They test for psychopaths when selecting managers. How else would we get the psychopath managers we have now?
More than that, if they're right, then introducing that gene into other species should make them sentient?.
No beacuse other ape species are sentient anyway.
The enemy in this case is less than 100km away so the missiles come in very slow.
Okay what is your alternative?
Its on public transport and in pretty much every workplace. If you want to opt out then go and live in a hut, otherwise get used to it.
It won't open any doors then.
