Not in the US. There are limits as to what you can do on private property which is open to the public. A restaurant is also "private property", but you can't refuse to serve someone because they are Black, or Mormon, or Australian.
Wow, I must be having a huge problem making myself clear. The idea is that you hack one of these: http://www.maxim-ic.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/5232 in line on the USB data lines, and control it with a GPIO from the CPU. The data lines are only connected when the phone is unlocked. So it really doesn't matter what you device you connect to the phone's connector, it won't be talking to the phone.
I like the idea of this... have a software controlled switch that disconnects the data lines whenever the phone is locked... I wonder how hard that would be to hack into my iPhone?
Right, unless they are NY's finest, issuing the beat down to protesters concerned that our country is being destabilized by the increasing concentration of wealth at the top. Right?
Well, the database example really depends on how much of the 80GB database is "hot". Even then the flash-based cache will probably help thruput as smaller writes to the platters can be reordered and combined.
My original post (GP of this) was a bit flippant, but more seriously, right now I'm struggling with when/whether to put down my 13+ year old dog. She is basically healthy, but has an issue with her hind end (either the chronic perianal fistulas destroying the nerves, or arthritis) where she can't hardly walk/stand/get up and is incontinent. Oh she's happy enough when I spend time with her, petting and brushing her, but she's obviously suffering at some times and in some ways. When is it 'ok' for me to take her life? As an atheist, I have no recourse to afterlives or doggie (nor human) heaven or hell, but I have the belief/knowledge that she will suffer no longer, ever after. I can't imagine trying to make the decision about a child, but at least I imagine that I'd be better able to communicate with the child (above a certain age) about what their experience of their life was, and so have a better basis for the decision. What I've got with my dog is "sometimes she 'looks happy'".
Again, how should it have been 'saved'? What form would you prefer? It seems (given the interest rates these days) that Treasury Bonds (and T-Bills) are the safest investments going, and those are "IOU's" from the US Government.
And the ability to tax and to print money is a little different from being able to write yourself a check.
The 'it's a tragedy' bit was just a nod to Stalin: "One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic."
As for this: "What is key is that it is the single component [multiple racers on the course at the same time] that is responsible for all the carnage." It's patently false. Drivers often lose control without contact with other drivers.
It's a tragedy because not enough people died for it to be mere statistics.
Oh and you could call time trials 'races', but the ability to jockey and pass during auto races is one of the skills which makes a given racer better or worse than another...
Um, probably not. He's rolling out fiber in my town of 7000. But it's also his business to know whether it's really going to be saturated so they can do the right network on the backend. Sonic.net is a pretty kick-ass ISP. They instituted outbound SMTP blocking. But they noticed I'm running my own SMTP server and sent me an email saying they weren't blocking SMTP to/from me, but I could enable/disable it just by visiting my member account page. Also, they just rolled out free fax numbers (gateway to PDF/email) and outbound faxing for everyone.

There's definitely more ideological influence on some networks than others.

Try reading again: "Software controlled switch that disconnects the data lines"
the data lines in question would be the USB data lines mentioned in my post's parent.

It's kinda hard to hire a lawyer after the drone strike.

Nixon is starting to look like the best President since, well Nixon...

Shouldn't that be ROFC then?

So their parents, or the state should decide for them?
I'm the same way. Even real, working medicines and surgeries don't work on me because I don't believe in them. Sort of a reverse placebo effect...
And as for your support of Ron Paul in your .sig, Oh hell no, we don't need a crazy creationist in office, thanks.
"should be saved to extend the program"

How would you have the SS funds stored? As pallets of dollar bills? Or perhaps something safer, that earns a return, like T-Bills?
No, the treatment they are working on is gene therapy, not the transplant that seems to have cured the man. They are related, but not the same.
The vast majority of humans _are_ atheists (see my .sig), and as far as I'm concerned, if you're over 18 and you believe in a god, you _are_ a nutter.
That's because we really love boobies!

Not only that, but a guy in china did the same thing to all those systems of yours! :-)
No, it's not that big a company. And as CEO, if he doesn't know the market his company (he was the founder) is dead.
