I get headaches pretty frequently but I think that is also partly due me needed to get a new prescription for my glasses.
Actually, it might be to do with the fact you wear glasses. Throw them away, and read Perfect Vision without Glasses (now in the public domain) by William H. Bates. It works.
I think security is meant to be fairly light, about the same as at a brick-and-mortar library:
"Couldn't someone just book out an audio tape, and copy it onto another audio tape?"
"Couldn't someone just take out a book, and run it though the photocopier?"
Like the above examples, this method won't prevent determined copying, but is just meant as a way to enforce a limit for the majority of legitimate users who use the library, and it seems suitable enough for this purpose.
It's not what the technician should have done, but what the police should have done. They should have obtained a warrant to continue searching the computer. This is simply a matter of incorrect police procedures. Somebody guilty of a crime can walk away free from court on these sorts of technicalities.
Absolutely. You have to keep an eye on the competition. They look at Opera and Firefox and see what they do right and what they do wrong. No doubt Mozilla and Opera devs did just the same with IE. Standing on the shoulders of giants - it's good for the user!
A great idea, but I have an even better one: you can instead secure your network and servers to ensure that no malicious connect attempts succeed! No blacklists to maintain, no fuss!
Wrong. Have you ever fired a gun? It actually fires a gyroscopically-stabilized projectile that takes a discernable amount of time to reach its destination. Hitting a non-stationary object reliably at long range (800m-1000m) is next to impossible.
This matters at the physics level. If you are going to fully implement the ballistics you are going to have implement the motion of the bullet, the atmospheric drag on the bullet, the gyroscopic stabilization, the effect of gravity on the bullet ("bullet drop") not to mention the effects of the individual specifications of the bullet itself, and perhaps some entirely random factors (the world isn't perfect).
And if you are implementing a game where players can fire an assault rifle full-automatic (600-700 rounds a minute or more, depending on too many factors to list - which might need to be implemented and calcuated by the computer, of course...) you can see that the CPU is going to start needing some help to work it out.
And that's just the bullets.
The gun example is just an example of the sort of jobs a co-processor might be required to do in an FPS environment. To cut a long story short, if you are going to be simulating life, even a small approximation of life, accurately, you are going to need to be calculating an awful lot of physics.
It's a great idea, but, I think some factory in the far east could chuck out conservatively-specced ARM-based Linux systems with 14" color screens at a unit cost lower than you can collect and get the old hardware up to merchantable quality. We are talking about millions of units here, and I doubt it will scale that far. We are a throwaway society I'm afraid.
You really ought to do some research into British-mandate palestine. That's the main historical precedent here, except it's even more complex because there are three ethnic groups fighting for each others destruction, as opposed to two.
'Nuff said.
Tzieg!!!!!

They're old/crap even by ARM standards!
Actually "Bounty" makes me think of a horrible-tasting coconut-filled chocolate bar.
You send much worse information when you surf. Like the last page you visited in the Referer: header.

Comparisons to Windows are beyond the point: the fact is, the CUPS interface undeniably sucks, that is the point of this article.
So there.
is in the interest of the science in this case.
If there is no record of him entering the U.S., how could he possibly have commited the crimes in the U.S.?
No, I don't think the court would get it, either.

How could it be "lost"? Bahrain is only about 650km squared in size.
