And while there are provisions supposed to let those found innocent get their sample removed from the database, when have you ever known a gov't to turn loose of any hold it has over its people, once it gets a good grip?
That may not work out exactly to the Govts benefit. It could constitute illegal search and seizure, in which case the court case would be thrown out.
Is it just me or is it a coincidence that this was in Warwick, also the last name of Captian Cyborg.
Read The Register for more info on Capt. Cyborg. I guess they can't make so much fun of him anymore:(
There's always the "Charge-Back" method, call your bank and tell them the charge was unauthorized.
The problem with EULA's is that they usually state something along the lines of "we can change this anytime we want without necessarily telling you".
Contracts typically require both parties to enter into a static contract. You never actually agreed to any contract after the first, even if you said you will.
Noone's put this to the test in court yet (as far as I know).
http://wipo.int/ is typically who you go through to resolve probelms with domains, however someone's name isn't really "intellectual property"
It also costs upwards of $2000 to start a dispute, which really isn't a problem for a Dem. or Rep. party member, however they would have a hard time proving a name is intellectual property.
As long as it's not libel (printed slander, aka lies) the domain owner should be fine, even if he does need a lawyer.
That's why people make rollback plans. If I had the budget of paypay I'd have my new sun servers ready, points my VIPs to the new sun servers and if everything goes to hell, go back to the old VIPs and back to the drawing board.
Odd, the maps of population density and NO2 levels show huge areas that are very heavily populated being near empty of NO2.
Granted, there are some sections of the map where large concentraions of people and NO2 coincide but there are many others that do not.
I'm sorry but I don't believe anything scientists say about the climate.
If you read http://www.newscientist.com/hottopics/environment/ it's quite obvious climatologists have no idea what the hell they're talking about as almost every article contains something about "this new information radically changes the way scientists think about xyz."
Don't get me wrong, we do need to stop burning fossil fuels, stop driving SUVs and shoot trash into the sun. Climatologist is still synonymous with quack in my book.
Why is the RIAA fighting P2P? Suing "pirates" for thousands is much more profitable, they may not have purchased your CD anyway which would only be a measly $25.
Perhaps they don't see that they are not taking losses in that they are not actually losing money, it's an opportunity cost.
I can only imagine they actually believe they are taking a loss. Just keep suing people, it makes better money.
Web services on the other hand, are very nice to work with.
I work with SNMP quite often and I hate it, web services are much easier to deal with. Let me tell you, if you've never worked with them have no fear for web services are easy as pie.
I'm sure you didn't notice this... but when your power steering fluid is low your car makes a light, almost grinding sound. That means you're low on power steering fluid.
The GM Hywire is the only car I'm aware of with drive by wire, and yes they did it right. The Hywire however is only a concept car, not production. You'd have a hard time finding the hydrogen to drive it.
The Scottsdale Police Department plans to create a cyber-crimes unit next year.
Well, might as well apply for the position. I only live 20 minutes away and if they're going to hire someone for the job it might as well be a nerd and not some suit.
I recently got my wife into (addicted to) playing Diablo 2 (yes it's old.. but baby steps:) Addiction is only a problem when it starts impacting your relationships and life in a negative way.
We stay up gaming together into the wee hours of the morning and I'm not getting fired over it... so it can't be all that bad.
Just waiting for WoW and EQ2 to come out now. Gotta love the womens who play games..
I think there was a previous slashdot article about a lawyer and lobbyist for MS or some such company. Doesn't the saying go "Any man who choses to represent himself has a fool for a client"?
God we need some good lawyers and lobbyists on our payroll... If we had payroll I guess.
I did it in a 2003 Toyota Matrix, with a labelled top end of 120. (needless to say the piddly ~120 horses takes a bit to reach 113:)) Anywho, it was not designed for driving at speeds that high, I could have taken my hands off the wheel, it was stable. But the slightest turn of the wheel was immediately apparent!
Can't say much about game title weakness, Sony tends to be pretty strong there. Maybe they should dump some cash into the research of those nuclear batteries?
Not to mention scary, the fastest I've ever driven on the freeway is 113MPH, and at that speed you're white knuclking the steering wheel. The slightest twitch will send you across a lane or two. I can't imagine searching for my cellphone, let alone dialing and talking on it at 120...

Allow Google to help.
Not to mention we could always install more CO2 processors

The line starts here!
As does my microwave.
I for one, welcome our new superhuman intelligence masters.

I believe the map shows NO2 levels accurately, I don't believe that it's necessarily a bad thing or even caused by humans.

Time to print out a template from http://www.blackvault.com/ Thank you Mr. Greenewald.
Exactly. However we ARE dealing with HTML code, that IS written by ANYONE and DOES NOT follow standards.
The standards have been laxed and there is a LOT of broken HTML out there. Geocities anyone?
