Does anybody have any idea what the status of this on Bright House in Tampa or Detroit? I currently have RoadRunner Internet service, but it is through Bright House Networks, not Time Warner.
There are no caps now, and AFAIK, there is no plan for caps, but it would be nice if anyone with inside info into this could confirm that there are no plans for caps and that nothing TWC does would affect Bright House customers.
This is what the frickin' (X)HTML anchor tag is for! Humans get a (possibly short) readable link, the machine gets something that tells it where to go.

So, you're right. TinyURL celebrated its 7th birthday in January.

You're nitpicking and attacking a rather minor point. The OP stated that the Founding Fathers of the United States of America envisioned a country run by taxes. Since we are talking specificially about income taxes, the OP effectively implied that the Founding Fathers envisioned a country that was run by income taxes. I believe I effectively refuted this by pointing out that the income taxes were never envisioned by the Founding Fathers, especially since they wouldn't be enacted until well after they were all dead.
The fact that they passed an amendment had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the Founding Fathers original vision for the country.
At the foundation of the United States, taxation == property taxes. Income taxes were never envisioned, and when they were passed after the Civil War to pay for reconstruction of the South, many commentators thought they were unconstitutional. Many people still think they are unconstitutional.
How many of you check your local tax laws before engaging in a money making activity?
In most countries, as well as the United States, if you are engaging in any legal 'money making activity' you have to claim the income on your taxes, for sufficient values of income. (If the activity is illegal, claming it on your taxes is among the least of your problems.:)
Of course, lots and lots of income often goes unreported because people either forget to claim it or deliberately don't claim it. Getting caught entails high penalties in many countries. OTOH, if you get paid in cash and neither party reports it ("under the table") getting caught is difficult at best.
While I tend to agree with you, I do think that a couple of very skilled and knowledgeable black hats with a severely huge and well-distributed botnet who were absolutely intent on taking down the entire Internet, could probably do so using multi-pronged attacks (BGP hacks would only be one part. Remember, for example, the Pakistan YouTube thing a while back?)
Also bear in mind that 99.999% of attacks are perpetrated by completely incompetent amateurs.
Thing is, though, anyone with that much skill and knowledge would have far better things to do and would probably not benefit in anyway from bringing down the whole thing.
No, I'm not. I'm saying that most applications used in the enterprise, uch as CRM, SCM, and other business intelligence/analytics applications, etc. absolutely require relational databases. Flat-file databases are relics of the past, and nobody doing anything serious is going to consider them, cloud or no cloud. At all.
The difference being she can work in Canada or Mexico and still travel in and out of the United States, and the RIAA, no matter how many judgments they have, can't touch her income at all. Gotta love the sovereignty of foreign governments!
Again we see the conflating of 'receiving pirated works' (which is 100% legal) and 'illegal distribution' (which is a civil matter).
Except that the aforementioned movie was found on The Pirate Bay, right? So if he torrented it, he was certainly uploading as well as downloading. And that uploading constitutes illegal distribution, correct?
Of course they only terminated his employment. After all, I have lots of torrented movies and the MPAA hasn' href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/technology/technologynews/5105"
True, but only in so far as they don't file a federal lawsuit. Whether they can get a federal court to hear the case depends on jurisdictional issues that you often need a lawyer to fish you through.
There's half of the problem with the cloud: Cloud storage platforms that suck because they aren't redundant and lack other enterprise-class features such as snapshots.
Now the second half of the problem: cloud databases that suck because they don't aren't relational and don't offer much protection against corrupt data.
Oh, and for all of this to get widespread adoption, CIOs are actually looking for these platforms to be open source and open standards so that they aren't tied to one vendor. They're not interested in repeating the same mistakes that were made with vendor lock-in in the past.
Exactly. The RIAA would have to track her down in the country she moved to and then get a court there to rule that she had to pay up. Good luck with that, though, because foreign courts are rather reluctant to involve themselves of civil matters that happened outside of their jurisdiction. In fact, they pretty much flat out refuse to.
For that matter, she could flee to Canada or Mexico.

So, what you're saying is, if the wiimote does't fit, you must quit? ;)

You're not ignorant. You're right. In addition, recent Firefox browsers have built-in XSS blocking.
I tried, but they closed down the Microsoft Pub.
"The Fed" is owned (ed. note: no, I mean owned, not pwned, but pwned seems to apply too) by the big banks.
There fixed it for you.

Probably a corrupted FAT (there's two copies). Might be nothing wrong with the card.

Um, no.
Well, when you one day don't have health insurance because you got laid off or whatever, let me know how high quality health care is for you then.
You're at the emergency room
Desk clerk: He's uninsured.
Chief Doctor: Is he dying?
Intern: Well, no...
Chief Doctor: Okay, well stablize him and get him out of here.
