Do you expect me to pay $60 a year extra to rent the smallest sized PO box just for a domain I'm using for email? And my friend who does the same thing should pay as well?
Of course the brakes could still fail if the brake line breaks or springs a leak, the later of which has happened to me. Luckily I noticed before I left my sidestreet. And don't the cars involved in the recall still have emergency brakes that are not electronically controller?
Well, the article makes it clear that they were downloaded. It is a bit unclear as to if they were sent via physical media through the mail as well. "Little is from California but was tried in Tampa after investigators here ordered his videos through the mail and downloaded them over the Internet." "Ordered his videos through the mail" could just mean that they sent a check to pay for the downloads. Or it could mean that they received a DVD.
Which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for almost all of them failing within a few years. And instead of sending back a new model that doesn't fail as much, they send back a repaired model with the same flawed design. (At least that's what happened to my friend with a first generation Elite. I got a Falcon back for my Falcon as well.)
One of the nice things about AT&T U-Verse is the 2-Wire gateway has WPA turned on by default with a unique key on the label. The system password is also unique and printed on the label. As a result my grandparents had a secure network without even knowing what WPA was. I'm not sure how the keys are generated, though. Hopefully they're not generated from the MAC.
I'm guessing these people have never used a Nextel/iDEN phone? I don't think anyone could miss the interference on their speakers, especially with all the people who like to use their phone while driving...
They do that with Heroes too. Sprint logos and phones everywhere. I vow to never subscribe to Sprint because they advertise too much. (I also play 1 vs. 100 on Xbox Live, where a vast majority of ads are for Sprint).
Same here. On some left turn lights, there is a green arrow when you're allowed to turn left, a blinking red where you can turn if there is no oncoming traffic, and a red light when you have to stop. Of course they also have solid green lights that you need to treat as blinking red lights if you're turning left. I still don't like those.
There's something screwed up with the DRM for the extra codecs. If you delete them (I believe it's called the "Optional Media Update") and then redownload them with an account that hasn't downloaded them before (you can create a new silver account) you can use the codecs offline.
Actually, the GBASP and the original DS use the same power adapter. DSLite's is different. I'm not sure if the DSLite power adapter works with the DSi or not. Also not sure about the GBA Micro. The original GBA used AA batteries and didn't have a power cable.
Does anyone know how much Netflix has to pay to stream a movie or TV show? Is it less than what is made from advertising on OTA TV and Hulu? If not, why isn't more content on Netflix? I'm paying right now, but I'm probably going to cancel as I just don't use it enough. I'm not a big movie person in general. I might reconsider if there were more television content on the service. For example, I watched the first two seasons of Dexter, but some reason they don't have the third season. They apparently had the first episode, but it was taken down after a week or two.
Thanks for the link. Actually, Microsoft added them as a Windows root CA last month, so now it does work in IE. I already had it installed in Vista. On a side note, does anyone know how to import and use the certificates generated by StartSSL for Remote Desktop on Vista? It will create a self-signed certificate by default, but I don't see a way to generate a certificate to be signed for a qualified domain name or import a certificate and private key generated by the site.
As far as I know, there still isn't an option anywhere in the GUI (even about:config) to disable the new tab button. Why? It's useless, just press CTRL+T. I have to use custom CSS to get rid of it. I like having a separate search box as well. If not only to keep something in persistently.
So you want public documents to be retroactively taken out of the public domain? Derivatives of public domain works are copyrightable. You get a bit of a paradox or at least a loophole if you require derivatives of non public domain works to become part of the public domain.
You're referring to the SERO plan? That's not public/nationwide, so it's not really fair to compare. "Sprint wireless service is available in the 49509 area. However, this private online program is not available in this market for Sprint products. Weâ(TM)re sorry for any inconvenience and we invite you to take advantage of our latest promotional offers:" It's apparently because of iPCS. Those are the assholes that are blocking WiMax here as well.
I also have amblyopia, thus I hope this 3D stuff dies. There are already more showings of the "3D" versions of movies than the regular version at the local theater. Luckily I don't get a headache watching them, but it's still an extra cost and an uncomfortable pair of glasses (especially with me wearing my prescription pair).

Convince some libraries in Michigan to get the book. Then I'll read it.
"browsing web sites, reading and responding to email, writing documents, working in spreadsheets": Are you talking about UAC prompts? You don't need admin privileges for any of that. You also shouldn't need admin privileges for moving your personal files around. If you need to do a lot of copying of files in the program files or windows directories, it may be easier to just start an elevated command prompt. Although I guess you're talking about all kinds of dialog boxes. Only thing I can really see is deleting files and doing a save as on an office document.
Where did you see that? I'm pretty sure Microsoft by default handles all of the server for matchmaking and leaderboards. I remember back with the first Xbox that Microsoft had to develop a protocol to allow Live games to communicate with the game company's server. This was done at the insistence of EA, who would not release titles with online play unless they could control the servers. This is why you have to accept a separate EULA and make a separate account to online with some EA games. I remember games like Burnout 3 and Revenge not working right for a few days after launch because of problems connecting to EA's servers. This is also why old EA games like Timesplitters 3 no longer work on the Xbox while you can still play all(?) of the older games that rely on Microsoft's servers. As shown by what they've already done, EA has enough leverage to force Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo to allow cross-platform play. I doubt you'd find any resistance from Nintendo, as they lack a truly unified online play system like Microsoft and Sony have.

Can you give examples of this?
Spammers like hijacking Facebook accounts so they can send spam to that person's friends.

They still have no idea how to stop the Server service, patch it, and start it again without a complete system reboot.

It COULD be Baidu trying to eliminate competition. Although the fact that their domain was hacked makes that theory very unlikely.

Apple doesn't really want a larger developer base. If they did, they'd release an SDK and allow development on Windows and Linux.

Interestingly enough, I've had Symantec antivirus on a windows computer detect and delete a Linux rootkit I had on a USB drive.
