I know that i never allow programs that have crashed to send debug info to microsoft. I am worried about my privacy, so will there be a way for me to disable this, I have purchased a program with the expectations that it is complete enought for use, however i have been bitten by several incomplete programs.
Onenotes: unbearably shitty, it works well for a time, but eventually it just runs into a bloat baloon and steals all the resources
Windows explorer: huge ramsteal on attempting to open corrupt avi files,
Macafee spam killer: again with the ramsteal, and 99% pc utilization on a 3 GHz machine.
well... say that each same music file put out by a record company had the same code. so comparing it against another copy of the same file is useless? and on top of that the code is perhaps made non- compressable(i am assuming certain portions of a waveform only get larger when compressed, so it works out better to just leave it)
ps, putting the 'id' code in the inaudible spectrum will be bad, because most compression will strip it out, perhaps going below the decibel limit of hearing would be best.
ps. i have been thinking about this for quite some time.
Well at guelph, all the programs have suffered a huge enrollment drop from 2003/4 year to the 04/05 year because of the "double cohort", basically there were twice as many graduates from highschool two years ago because the 5th year of highschool was phased out.
In the engineering program the enrollment dropped by 60% over those two years, the compsci people should also take into account the number of people who are instead taking the ES&C (electronic systems and computers iirc) engineering program, which combines engineering with computer science,
lol, i cannot believe you went. i am really amazed. ill fix it up for real now,
all i had was a fucking shitty flash movie up, and it was suppose to link to www.theserver.cis.uoguelph/2100de/mfadock/dupe.htm l but i forgot and put in the old page, default.htm, and its blank now.
2. 'Human resources' (i hate that word) are cheap.
3. Profit.
As someone else posted, only local markets will be affected....but a local market for 1 billion people and industry that can set up shop and USE ANY METHOD known to them for production of a product will surely have an advantage over those paying.15 cents per light bulb based on some patent.

i believe you would be the copywrite holder, so there is no problem there.
i just d/l'ed it for a check, it does seem more responsive, and quicker overall, im looking at about 11,000 K of a footprint with nothing in it, not too bad, but also not so great.
Pretty decent but what I really want is a good free pdf editor that works with pen input. (that would rock so many worlds.. esp mine... being able to write notes on the pdf would just kick ass so hard.)
It's these fellows who have been lobbying so hardcore for filtering on reststops. Think about it, no free internet PORN = a garunteed purchase by male truckdriver/camper/12 year old of a 10 dollar titty mag.
They have found out that rewriting an entire operating system to clean up bad code and faulty processes because of undocumented bugs, and other Big Business Corporate Manhandling problems is a HUGE waste of time. Apple writes good code that can be reused and reused! No need to throw things into the mislabled Recycling Bin, you can keep and improve them.
Too bad for Microsoft, even those 5 years of operating expenses saved up cannot help that much.
"High costs are due to low unit sales, thats just the econimics of the thing."
I being only 19 years old and an undergraduate engineer, would love to get my hands on a couple of subscriptions the journals for reading, I cannot afford it however, it would bankrupt me.
I believe in economics that the profit of an item is always equal along the supply and demand curve, you say demand is low? Lower the price and demand will increase, here is a situation where something that costs more money, is assumed to be more valuable.
I know most undergrads would like to get into more depth into their field of choice. My buddies all would like to get subscriptions, too expensive...

I remember some statistics that your family and close friends are the most likely to kill you. In addition they are the most likely to go on multiple murders ending in a suicide.
It turns out that by being mean to your own family, you breed resentment and bad feelings, these multiple murders are just Darwin's discovery getting back at you for antisurvial behaviour.

ill probably watch it. I noticed a bit of a Death star in the background... some kind of metallic moon.

supporting information...check
patents...gotta wait till the courts are out on this one
copyright...check
liscensing...check
having lots of high priced lawyers.....priceless.
three things about this.

unless im misunderstanding something
"Now, let me get this straight. If I take a home movie of my kid's birthday party (which I know has not been commercially released) and I put it in the "Shared Documents" folder on my home computer, I'm now a felon?"
i believe you would be the copywrite holder, so there is no problem there.
looks like the internet is a turning machine, the internet manages to mimic real life and emulate it.
i have some thoughts on this, but i will be writing them in a book. which you dudes can buy sometime.
"A pub is private property that allows the public to enter. "
resaurants are public property, not private, unless specifically stated in a sign at the door "members only"
works out ok, wanna smoke? join a smokers club or something.
smoking is bad, get with it.
i believe that is an attempt to relate the innovation of a project to the amount of "leaderness" in respondants to a survey
//30 people surveyed(sample size)
//poisson something? (i don't know this one)
//end school
n=30
p=.002
adjusted r2 is the correlation coeffiecient between leaderness and percieved innovation, (closer to one is better, more of a relationship)
adjusted stands for removing outliers (data points which are not like the others by a significant margin)
y=2.06+.57x is just a least squares attempt to correlate the data into a linear function.

ARG. worst. cockblock. evar.
its a blimp, it will gently touch down with 4 years warning.
a 80 meg file???? WTF
you trying to kill them all?
what you, speak up?
stupid irresponsible editors

err, temperature of the vacume???
Vacume has no temperature, im sure it is instead the average temperature of the lunar surface.
depending on what materials make up the moon-base, they could be quite warm(ie, black coloured materials, or uv->thermal materials.)
but someone would have to go outside to clean the buildings off every 600 million years.
if windows continues to commit suicide with its liscencing and heavy handed approach to business linux won't have to do anything.
We won in Brazil, we can win elsewhere.

Dude1 : Hi there, would you like to particapte in a survey?
Sample#59822 : sure
dude1 : Question one, do you know what a blog is?
sample#59822: a wha'?! i gots no idea'r whatcha's talkn' bout
dude2: should we censor their speech?
sample59822 : right as rain, these here blog'eis is undermining ours rights.
end of conversation..
With 1/3 of people not knowing what a blog is, i suspect that the margin of error should be +- 30 points then... making this a very innacurate deal
