The only thing that constitutes explicit permission is some sort of notice informing you that "You have permission to do foo." Robots.txt files explicitly forbid certain resources, implicitly allowing all others.
This is just semantics; permission is permission, and while implicit permission may be somewhat easier to argue about in court, at the end of the day it's not really any less compelling than the explicit version.
Follow [sic] that logic, then by having a telephone a diner has granted explicit permission to the telemarketer to interrupt his meal.
The word you're looking for is implicit, not explicit. And yes, the diner has indeed agreed to receive telephone calls from all and sundry by leaving the phone on, absent an explicit request to the contrary (e.g., membership in a Do-Not-Call registry.) The diner is under no obligation to pick up the phone or even leave the ringer on, but it's up to him to decide how to handle the request.
Except that if Museumtour voluntarily arrives at a licensing agreement with SBC, no legal precedent has been set. Only court decisions set precedent.
Which is not to say that they aren't trying to build up a portfolio of little victims to fund their eventual attacks on bigger fish, just that "precedent" has nothing to do with it. Amazon (or whoever) is not going to be intimidated by a list of small fry who've already been successfully extorted.
Because the government provides the environment that enables that transaction to take place, the common currency that it takes place with, and mechanisms of redress should the transaction go awry.
Without all that, a merchant could sell you a poisonous, falsely-labeled product in exchange for a hard-to-quantify barter item, and once you discovered you'd been taken there'd be no police to chase him, no Better Business Bureau to report him to, no EPA to clean up the poison, etc. etc.
"I don't have anything worth stealing, so why should my taxes pay for the police? If don't drink milk, why am I paying for dairy farmer subsidies? I never go hiking, why should my money go towards national parks?" It's called a social contract. Even the childless benefit indirectly from public education, so we've decided that everyone should contribute. You're paying for the right to utilize public schools; whether you choose to exercise that right is your business.
More to the topic at hand, the issue with interstate taxation is that monies you pay to another state do not grant you any representation, privileges, or benefits. If I, a New York resident, pay sales tax to the state of Maine when I order something from Land's End, what am I getting out of it? Conversely, if Land's End is saddled with collecting taxes for New York State, what's in it for them? All they're doing is shipping a package here, so it amounts to an unconstitutional interstate tariff.
(The way some states have been getting around that problem with things like automobile purchases is by dint of a mutual agreement, a bargain you'd have a hard time striking with any no-sales-tax state.)
Why don't you just install Linux on the 5400s? You'll have your Linux lab without shelling out for new x86 machines that the administration is unlikely to let you futz around with.
Good example of Nielsen stupidity: They count "NFL Monday Showcase" at 9:00PM as a show distinct from "NFL Monday Night Football" at 9:07PM.
(And if you think "Yes Dear" holding the 14 spot is a bad sign for American culture, you must not remember when "Three's Company" was the number one show in the country.)
If the people that studied these ratings (advertisers, execs) didn't feel they were accurate, they would be looking for a new parter to monitor ratings.
Right, and we should trust them on that, because TV and advertising executives are renowned for their analytical acumen.
You don't need WINE for this. It's Sorenson v1, which is supported directly by mplayer. IIRC, at this point it's only Sorenson 3 that's still a sticking point.
We've got the Exchange server punting any attachments that don't end in.zip, txt, gif or jpg
So you're stripping GPG/PGP signatures? PNG images? (Besides which, what's to stop users from running malicious code they've extracted from a zip archive?) Seems like throwing the baby out with the bathwater, just as "never open any attachments ever" advice. If you allow email functionality to be that hobbled, you've been just as affected by viruses as those who actually get them.
Law & Order is shot entirely in NYC. They have a studio over by the Chelsea Piers, but even many of the interiors are shot on location, resulting in chronic parking headaches. NYPD Blue does their exteriors in NYC, but I believe they shoot most of the interiors in LA. I don't know why everyone talks like a Chicago meatpacker circa 1950, though.
Direct drive turntables are for DJs, who need the torque to spin records up to speed as fast as possible. For audio quality you want belt-drive, which provides another layer of insulation from vibrations.
I think they can -- I have analog cable, and I used to be able to order pay-per-view movies by switching to the channel I wanted and pushing "AUTH" on the remote, and the name of the movie would show up on the bill. (NOw they've moved all the PPV channels up into the digital-only range.)
Jim Belushi as Captain Haddock.
Leonardo DiCaprio as Tintin, or, if Leo's too old, "Malcolm in the Middle."
Jim Carrey as Professor Calculus.
Robin Williams as Thompson & Thomson.
Snowy will be CGI, voiced by Ahmed Best.
#2: e.g. "Hmm, was that tar -xfp or -xzfv tar? Actually it's neither. The - has been deprecated for a while with tar. Typically it goes command -switch/-option. It's a logical standard. So in your case it'd be tar xzf whatever. No -.
You've got that backwards. The no-hyphen flags are the old deprecated ones in tar. "info tar" if you don't believe me.
Slashdot Mirror
Then you don't understand it.
With an obviously invented name like "Locutus"...
As another poster pointed out, this "obviously invented" word was invented by the ancient Romans.
Whirlpool? Jesus in a blender would be more like it.

It wasn't a pay raise, it was a budget allocation "to support the perverted arts."
If you're going to be a smartass, at least try to get it right: it's "tetrahydrocannabinol."
You shouldn't. You also shouldn't buy one of these if what you need is a microwave oven or a fuel pump or a pair of ski boots.

They'll be playing with particles, but everyone in the stands will be doing the Wave.

Actually the base (CRT) iMac starts at $799.

You can't buy Unreal II or a 4GHz Pentium either, but they're not "vaporware" because no one expects them to be out yet.
