Simply changing the color of the gun would not help because it can be painted over in black. The best way would be to alter the shape AND add color to make the gun unrecognizable as a real gun.
He makes a good point. Intellectual property is something that should be defended in order to preserve good order and for the sake of those who do the work. If there is no incentive to make money in a certain field, progress will suffer in a society such as a capitalist one.
College: where you don't buy lectures, you buy grades.
This has been a know fact for some time now. College students soon find that college professors are called professors for a reason, they don't teach. Teachers are for HS. In college, you pay for a degree, not the lectures
Actually, the program that you wanted can be installed with such a setup. I attend the university of michigan and they have a similar setup there. You can install anything you want (so long as a restart is not needed) and it is cleared away upon a user's logoff. Simple.
The ironic thing is that most foreigners who learn English learn the grammar rules better than a native speaker. It might not sound right to a native speaker, but actually it could be grammatically correct in English. Pity on the grammatically correct foreigners.

Yes, a 10x optical zoom is nice, but it is not necessary. As a professional photog, I can say that there is more than 1 way to zoom. Simply moving towards an object is a way to zoom in, although the flexibility of being able to zoom in and crop with the camera takes precedent. Kodak's camera is not revolutionary, and is in fact another in a long line of average cameras. A DSLR is much more suitable to the purposes that Kodak is aiming for. I have a Nikon D70, and it has a point and shoot mode. Coupled with interchangeable lenses that allow one to have a low enough aperture to zoom in far without having too much camera shake, and it a killer combination. One of the problems of a 10x optical zoom on a point and shoot is that in order to zoom in that far, the camera must up the aperture so high that the shutter speed must be really low. With the target not in range of the flash, the picture will be underexposed or blurry.
I currently attend the University of Michigan, and have encountered much frustration in tracking down books. The university has several libraries and finding some books is nearly impossible. Additionally, the University has old collections and manuscripts that are barely indexed in the University's system. For the purposes of research, scanning the books is a dream come true. Searching for keywords, the ability to quickly find books, and the ability to view old manuscripts that one would normally need to be present at the library (and under supervision) to view. The copyright issue is important, but the books that are in public domain (primary sources especially) should definitely be scanned. As for the copyrighted books themselves, Google does not allow the full book to be viewed. If anything, Google advertises for these books. For a student such as myself, I would not buy the book as it is, so what is the harm?
I was wondering what the market share is compared to IE? I am finding that IE is used so much because it is convenient and not because people haven't heard of Firefox. Once I show somebody firefox and what it can do, they realize the error of their ways.
What would stop someone from the Netherlands from just driving a few kilometers out of the country, buying an mp3 player much cheaper, and then driving a few kilometers back? Not much.
Nikon is not only excluding adobe, but in effect is doing the same to all professional photographers. I do not know any photographers who dare use anything but photoshop. Nikon's proprietary software is barely usable, and few professionals would want to use it. Nikon should give their customers what is wanted and make the format open.
The purpose of this media is to make money. Obviously they can make much more money by making a simplified version at first that has more space than all but the largest hard discs, and then space the release of larger versions. This model is used to make more money... which is the purpose of any commercial venture.
Image clarity and image quality are two different things. Yes, extremely sharp pictures make up for lack of resolution, but only to a point. I am simply saying that a 6 megapixel camera will perform better than a 1 megapixel camera given the same lense.

Stability and accuracy are great, but what about clarity? It does no good to have a satellite that can barely take pictures for us. The images from the hubble are disappointingly low resolution. The technology available now would make a far far far better telescope. Though it would cost more, there are improvements across the board. The truth is.. the hubble WILL be replaced eventually. I am a firm believer in euthanasia of satellites. If a satellite keeps wanting to die i wil help it.
Other than some high pings, there is no reason to not just make every data center in the artic circle. The cooling would be free, and then we wouldn't have to argue about what costs less.
Where are us 19-20 year olds from Michigan going to go to get wasted legally? This is an outrage! How the government do such a thing to us underage michiganders? Not only will this be a big hassle, but the cost of going to Canada will be raised by about $100 (passport) by this outrageously crazy scheme.
This all goes to a book written by Alduos Huxley called A Brave New World. Huxley talks of a society where behavior modification is used to an extreme... might this be the start of it?

And if the UN is as good at regulating the internet as it is good at ensuring peace throughout the world and ensuring unity throughout the world, then I am sorry but I don't want the UN to regulate. The UN has a spotty record at best at getting anything done but spending money, and lately has almost failed. Why don't they try to get good at what they already do instead of extending themselves as far as they can get.
The first person to wirelessly transmit power, Nikola Tesla, demonstrated such a feat before 1900. The wireless transmission of power is simply the tranmitting of electromagnetic energy. The process is very inefficient at high energy and it is likely that NASA simply wants a more efficient way to do so.
The ones who don't get this concept will just quietly go under or be bought up by other news organizations that "get it". This is exceptionally silly on AFP's part since once a user clicks on a link from Google News to go to AFP's site they can display banner ads to help pay their costs.
They won't go under because google will be giving them a huge settlement.
Has anyone read Maddox's opinion on suicide?

Its true, the infrastructure needed such as phone lines and cable lines carries a large price tag. Mom and pop can't afford such a price tag.

Well first off, I was JUST JOKING, and secondly, I don't consider a solution that lasts (only) 50 years to be temporary in this computer age.
