Well, you collected a bunch of things, and now suddenly the scanner stops working. You look around and suddenly you notice that there's nobody around. You could abandon the basket and go to another store, but that would take time and effort... Or you could "come back and pay tomorrow".

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
If I purchase a PS3 second-hand for the sole intention of rooting the device to run whatever, how would the "System Software License Agreement for the PlayStation 3 System" apply to me?
Or are they implying that either the units are not resell-able or the second owner is not licensed to run the firmware it comes with? I see the first-sale doctrine preventing the first and actually invalidating any other implied license between Sony and the second owner.
If you buy the razor, how are you obligated to purchase blades from the same vendor (stupid connector patent schemes aside), rather than using it as a back scratcher?
I haven't waded my way through more than a few before I realized I was supposed to be doing actual work instead of reading, but my comment is speculative of disclosing an agent in the field, comments fingering third-parties and general collateral damage.
I also agree with the reap-what-you-sow comment above, but I'm more interested in those third parties that may be caught in the cross-fire.
The real question is after many other countries digest the content, will there be any retaliation/action/bad stuff by the documented actors? Somehow I don't think foreign interests will give the US State Department a pass on this if it involves said interest.
I'm all for the "information wants to be free" mantra, but when it can come to a considerable cost to others, the disclosure can't wipe their hands completely of responsibility. Airing a politician's dirty laundry is one thing, but releasing documents that may have names of people that may be endangered unawares should be handled with some discretion.
I really don't like being on this side of the argument..:-(
How sure are we that the resulting data from this service is accurate? Is there a pattern between the times and resulting countries because they're mistakenly parsing the date/time of the log instead of the actual IP address? Or if they're only parsing every 40th entry maybe they're injecting bursts of "wrong" data as part of a trial?
I see no reason to jump to any conclusion as long as there may be doubt about the validity of the data you/we are looking at.
Or "6" if you're standing on your head... Possibly "l" if you're a neighboring digit looking at your two-dimensional buddy on the same plane... Or if you're a surrealist, the answer could be "rutabega".
It isn't. The only copies of Avatar are cams - there is no R5 yet, much less a 3D version. If you stumbled upon something like that, rest assured it's a fake, used as a honeypot by the MAFIAA, or contains an exe with malware.
I'd reply telling you it's not fake but I'm currently too busy oogling blue babe boobies (3B?) hovering in front of my face...
Wouldn't implementing this stop most external mailing lists from sending one of your user's email back to himself (or worse, that email from your user to another user of your system)?
My system has been receiving a bunch of spam as described looking like it comes from domain but the envelope is external. Several users (including myself) are active on various mailing lists, so it seems I have my hands tied unless I construct a white list - which would be high maintenance and piss users off until it hit critical mass.
What is the capability difference between their overpriced "partnered" LCD monitors and my 120Hz-capable CRT? Two things: Jack and Shit.
I wonder if CRT persistence would become a problem at that high of a refresh rate. I had a similar system (Asus had 3D goggles that were tied to a dongle on the VGA port, pre-DVI) but the 3D would get really blurry at refresh rates higher than 60Hz due to phosphor persistence (essentially 30Hz per eye, though it's probably not that simple since they're alternating). IIRC, that 60Hz was interlaced as well.
Made for some serious migraines, but it was neat to play Descent II in 3D for 15 minutes at a time until my head asplode.
I do have a 120Hz LCD monitor now, but I haven't sunk the extra dollars in for the 3D glasses. I love the frame rates I'm getting now - movement in FPSers are liquid smooth... very reminiscent of my CRT days, but I'm not sure I want to revisit the 3D stuff again until I see more user feedback.
While I cannot understand why you are so emphatic, I can empathize your position in this matter. We can expedite recreation of said research data and deliver it by air courier. Kindly prepare to receive a few drops presently, as soon as we fortify our research site with duct-taped cats and a tarp.
Dear eldavojohn - thank you very much for your interest in our research.
Unfortunately data collected on targetted facial responses is strictly limited to third-party hear-say information since the data collection stopped shortly after levitation was achieved due to personal safety risks to the research team if they were to have remained on-site. The time period of this research predates the "YouTube" era, and indeed no video recording devices were available that wouldn't prove too bulky for safe movement during the personnel evacuation window.
While my submission cannot be considered authoritative in this subject by peer review, it is refreshing to see other researchers interested in this field of study.
The dead squirrels did not seem to suffer adverse effects while they were levitating, though it must be said they were in this state only for a few moments and there were adverse effects after they struck their respective targets.

Truly a good title with multiple meanings. Is there hope for /. yet?
Mount an SMB2 network share as a drive letter in Windows 7. Tell Firefox to download a file to that drive. Enjoy your corrupted download.
This was biting some of my users after migrating a file sharing server from W2k3 to W2k8r2. This is the future?
I believe the pervs in IT were thinking of the children when they activated the webcams...

1/150 of 206 people = 1 whole person and ~.3733 of a person.
No doubt that could cause a bloody mess!
In all likelihood, Verizon merely just accidentally the entire site.

what, like '9' ?

The author is all for pancakes, so this is relevant to my interests.
I think everyone in, entering, leaving or has any tie with the US should have full encryption on all of their storage devices.

The answer to that question is curiously similar to the answer for this question:
Q: How can you tell when a woman has reached orgasm?
A: Who cares?

I'M GOOD ENOUGH. I'm smart enough, and dog-gone it, people like me. AL FRANKEN
Isn't it funny how some parents can't seem to let go after the child has grown, especially when they greatly exceed expectation?
