It could be argued that the different states are different countries due to the different laws, but as the USA has a central government, it's more usually considered a single country.
It's a bit more complicated in the UK - Scotland has it's own parliament whereas Wales and Northern Ireland don't. Wales has it's own language, whereas all the rest just use English (I'm discounting Gaelic as it's not really used). However, England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are all separate countries.
Buffalo make some nice dual band routers that ship with DD-WRT firmware on them. I've had no problem with my one at home, but I only use it as a wireless access point.
I installed one at work in a remote office to automatically open and share a Cisco VPN connection and it works like a charm.
Don't forget their trackballs. I think their trackball (which they stopped making) is possibly the best designed one I've seen - the scroll wheel sits nicely under your thumb.
Not quite the same as you've got an expectation of privacy if you're in your house. This situation is more like a beautiful woman undressing on a theatre stage and not realising that people were watching.
I've heard it said that the difference between a straight man and a gay man is about 10 pints of beer. I suppose a similar thing could happen in prison.
Don't forget public mailboxes. Maybe we should put CCTV cameras covering all public mailboxes and ensure that dangerous/threatening letters can be traced back.
It's easy enough to get it unblocked. I tried to find the D&D cartoon on http://www.chick.com/default.asp and found the site blocked on Vodafone. It's just a case of phoning them and removing the block if you're over 18.
I've had mixed success with Ubuntu upgrades. About 90% of upgrades work, but I've had to re-image a few times when libc has got borked or when grub suddenly decides to get confused over the order of disk controllers. Sometimes the problems can be fixed, but other times it's just quicker and easier to install from scratch.
I think you're over complicating things and you haven't considered what happens in a disaster scenario when you need to access the passwords, but don't have access to your usual hardware.
KeePass with the file stored in a DropBox folder would be a lot easier.
Agreed. I tend to logical positivism in that it doesn't matter if it's real or not if you can't tell the difference. I think the big problem is with the definition of "real" and "exists".
So, you're saying that if you set up the simulation so that you can't distinguish it from reality, then you can't distinguish it from reality? That's not really a thought experiment; it's just circular reasoning.

How is linking (to someone else who may be infringing copyright) a crime in the UK?
I dare you to go to Scotland and call someone English! They most definitely are not the same country. Also, Wales is not the same country as England.
You must be confusing countries and nations e.g. Scotland, Wales and England are all part of Britain.

I thought the new phones always came out in Asia first, then Europe, then America.
You should try OTRS (http://otrs.org). It's a very capable ticket system and has a well behaved web front end and a decent iPhone client as well.
Yes, but putting information on a public website is actively publishing that information, not just failing to hide it.

I guess you'll have to try some other cheese. There's several varieties - you might find one you like.
None of them?
Fastest film funding.
When I visited Thailand, I got the impression that most Thais love their monarchy and didn't think that the law was unfair.

Agreed. Noscript is what keeps me using Firefox despite it's sometimes sluggish behaviour.
That definition would apply to an American shooting someone breaking into their house. Are they not allowed a trial?

When was it overturned? I didn't think it was.

He can still buy the "new" product as he still has the money.
In this case, I can't see any victim from this illegal act, so I don't think it's wrong.
