I will never understand why we passed Proposition 71 which calls for three billion in bonds over the next few years to fund stem cell reasearch given that our state is broke.
Remember that there exists a certain malevolence about the formation of any social order. It is the struggle for existence by an artificial entity. Despotism and slavery hover at the edges. Many injuries occur and, thus, the need for laws. The law develops its own power structure, creating more wounds and new injustices. Such trauma can be healed by cooperation. The summons to cooperate identifies the healer.
Already times on the idea come, one with Windows XP installed WAV file with the editor to open? That makes nevertheless nobody - Microsoft will have imagined, nevertheless innumerable WAV files on the computer and those lie are to to listen to and to do not look at there.
Off-topic me all you want, but what's the point of providing a Google translation of these things. It's like posting an article and expecting no one to RTFA.
For it to be a non sequitur the author would have to have intended one point to follow the next. (ie: Disk storage has increased (therefore|so|but) blatant insecurities in hashing have not gone away.)
The author isn't drawing any conclusions in that statement. He's stating two facts that both make the letters only LM hashes easily exploitable via flat files.
...using the wire-tapping law seems like trying to fit an oblong peg into a round hole. Close, but no dice.
The solution here is either to encrypt your email or to create a new law specifically forbidding ISPs from reading your email.
I prefer the former method to the latter. Laws forbidding an ISP from reading your email don't protect your email. They can act as a deterrent, but first you have to find out it occured, and then you have to prosecute. And then your email has already been read.
Shame on you.
Ice Pirates is vastly superior ripoff of Star Wars in every aspect than The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones could ever hope to be!
Here's the problem: Exit polls aren't perfect, but at least, unless the media is lying, they are somewhat representative of how people actually voted. If there is a wide descrepency between the exit polls and the actual election results, we know something is up. With the media getting information from GEMS we don't have that.
What's worse, the media influences how people vote. If non-Bush voters think Bush has already lost they'll be more likely to vote for their desired third parties (if any) rather than Kerry, which could very well result in a win for Bush. So I think it's a genuine problem if even the unofficial tally can be corrupted so easily.
I'm not wearing a tinfoil hat, but I more or less agree.:)
While no system is perfect, physically counting the votes would avoid many problems. While it comes with problems of it's own, many of these can be avoided by having multiple counters, and adding representatives of various public and private agencies, as well as random members of the public (perhaps like jury duty) to oversee the count.
I've never understood why we can do all this screwing around with alternative methods for calculating votes, but we can't invest time and money to do it the old fashioned way to ensure it's done properly.
Computers could be used, but they should be used to correct issues like bad handwriting that make handwritten ballots difficult to read. You make your vote on the computer (by selecting a candidate or typing in your own) and it prints out your ballot, which is human-readable. Then put your ballot in the box.
You missed the point.
"card1.jpg" isn't an image of the Jack of Spades. It's an image of any card the player is holding in the first position in their hand. It might be Queen of Hearts, Jack of Spades, or two of Clubs.
The point is that in this case a robot would have no idea what card is held without examining the actual image.
Although, there would be very little overhead in doing what you seem to think I suggested. I don't think any server running an online gambling service would have any trouble creating 52 random links every 15 minutes.
Why would the software have to scan the screen? The card image would be a unique filename, right?
Not necessarily. It might reside on their servers as jack_spades.jpg, but what you get might be http://somegamblingsite.com/?player=23592361&card= card1 which returns a file card1.jpg which is a link to jack_spades.jpg.

You mean the Libertarians and the Greens, right?
Does anyone get to claim property taxes as a deduction?
I'm pretty sure it stands for Intellectual Property Television or Insane Patent Television.

It's true. I bet some people even think David Caruso is an actor. Maybe even a good one!

Oh, wait...
...John Ashcroft implies terrorism and crime not a threat to US.
From the article:
"I don't believe it is a true statement that our version of freedom doesn't have the features that our subjects want."
Ashcroft reiterated that features such as civil liberties are not important to US citizens.
No, it's not a non sequitur.

Yep. Just don't tell my wife.

If buy today's standards you mean Ice Pirates and Tron, then yes, I wholeheartedly agree!

No, no wait... what I'm really doing is stealing from Network Solutions, since I'm not paying them $9/year to hide this information for me.

Man, someone is going to have some serious case mod bragging rights after winning this bid.
Translation: "No matter how high we got, around 5:00am we realized there was no way we were going to get this project done."
Back home we used to call this "baffle 'em with the bullsh*t". (And then hope they don't notice that we didn't actually do the project.)
We have irrefutable proof those are not your photos:
