Also, if Facebook wins, it will set a precedence. It will mean that potentially, anything that modifies a website from what the website author produces will be illegal.
So turning off images or Javascript in your web browser will also be illegal. What about using a web browser other than the one the website intends for you to view it in. Soon everyone in the USA will be forced to use the same version of the same web browser with the same settings! That'll make the web developer's job easier.
Never been to a casino in the US, but in Australia thats exactly how it works. The slot machines never display a total dollar figure (until you try to cash out the money). Slot machines (or pokies as they're known here) come in a wide variety of prices - from 1 cent up to $10. So you could put in a dollar and get 100 credits or 1.
If I put in a dollar and got 10 credits, I would assume it was a 10 cent machine which had been labelled wrongly as a $1 one.
Could work, could work. Transfer the various mod ratings onto a t-shirt and sow a strip of velcro (or noticeboard fabric, it's softer) beside then. Have the numbers on little velcro squares and let people mod as appropiate.
And in DS1 falling asleep isn't much of a handicap at all. At a LAN party once, a guy fell asleep in his chair while we were playing multiplayer. He had gained about 4 levels by the time he woke up, as the character just followed everyone else and attacked automatically. Talk about the game playing itself!
Hmm, apparently any online gambling is illegal for all persons within Australia however only the provider, not the gambler, is prosecuted, making overseas companies practically immune (reference).
I've always found it very illogical in a moral/ethical sense that online gambling is illegal for Australians however it is legal to run online casinos here. Probably makes good economic sense though, and thats all that matters to the law makers. After all, who cares if we're contributing to some foreigner's gambling habit, we'll have his money and his home country can bear the social impact.
So, they've developed a storage medium that works on fingernails *not attached* to a finger...
If this is going to be used for authentication purposes, I for one hope the final implementation of readers includes measures to ensure the finger is currently alive. Surely it wouldn't be too hard to include sensors to monitor for a pulse and warmth. Don't those dodgy love tester machines work off a similar principle?
Considering that toenails grow at 1/4 the speed of fingernails (ref Wikipedia), using them for a backup is probably not such a bad idea.
Considering the larger dimensions of the big toe, I wonder how much data could be stored on it? The other toes are probably too small to fit much.
I just read an article on that. Yowch! What a lowly tatic! I'm surprised that isn't breaking some sort of regulation. Surely registering a domain name you never ordered in your name is fraud somehow?
Save money? I figure they'll be loosing revenue based on excess data traffic charges generated by extra traffic caused by the trojans.
Note to Non-Aussies: BigPond counts both uploads and downloads for data traffic with excess usage charged at A$0.15/mb. There have been cases of people being hit with very large internet bills for one month (IIRC the largest was in excess of $10,000)
Try contacting eNom again, and explain that you have made multiple attempts to contact the registrar but have not received a response. Detail your attempts. eNom surely has a procedure for transferring domain names to themselves when a reseller goes out of business or is uncontactable. They may also be more willing to help if you can find some sort of proof that Jump Domains is no longer in business.

I must now do this.

.com.au domain names are *only* available to Australian businesses, therefore Google must have some sort of presence within Australia.

Got to be fair and balanced.

As MMOG get bigger so does the average person I think you've just nailed the cause of the growing numbers of obesity.
