duh, this isn't that revolutionary, and it wouldn't require anything special. just have a database and a primary redirect/include page, and you can change your data around all you want. still doesn't fix the problem that if something is DELETED, (not simply moved) that people aren't gonna find it, all you would do is either keep a list of the 'resourceid' that have been used and tell the user that it was deleted, or have a standard way of generating them, and if its not found in the reference database, tell them its deleted (even tho the id in this case might not have ever been used, it would just fit the criteria for generation)
jeez, thats neat and all, but would you want a bunch of gamers sitting around with electronics strapped to their . . . oh, wait, you mean the head on your shoulders? oh, uh, nevermind then....
voters register as normal, show up, show ID, get checked off or removed from one booklet of names, sign the sheet saying that you are aware that you are voting (so that people don't 'accidently' remove all the democrats from the booklet and claim they all voted already). next judge down the line takes the sheet you have signed from you, returns a 'receipt' from it to you, and hands you a ballot (not a paper one tho, keep reading). judge asks if you need instructions, blah... blah.. get into booth, slot in the ballot (approx 6" by 9" hard plastic sheath w/ components inside). booth terminal verifies that the ballot is still 'valid' and presents choices on elections to voters, w/ confirmation (and big font for the nearly blind people). once you get thru all of the choices, it lists them and asks again if these are 'your final answers' and then records the tallys internally to the booth, and 'inside' the ballot, and marks the ballot as having come from that booth/district and marks the ballot as used digitally in the ballot and PUNCHes a hole in a non vital area of the card (so its easy to see its a ballot that has been used.)
having the picture might cause some problems if the photos are not approved by the candidate (or someone w/ authority for candidate) to be used in the election, and could use that as a basis for complaining (i.e. it would be a bad idea to use a pic that someone doodle devil horns and a goatee on). all choices would have to be listed on the screen for each position, so that people won't complain that they were overlooked since they were on the second 'page'.
just like Gore wants a whole county in Florida to vote again because 19,000 don't know how to vote. (And, after the fact, probably shouldn't be voting either) some of the people in that 19k weren't idiots, they were refused replacement ballots when they didn't punch correctly the first time around.
In 1824, Andrew Jackson beat his rival, John Quincy Adams, by more popular and then more electoral votes--99 versus 84--but still lost the election because he didn't win a majority of electoral votes (78 went to other candidates). When that happens, the House of Representatives picks the winner. ahhh, back when there was more than a 2 party system.....
Congress had teetered on the verge of wrecking the electoral college, an institution that has no equal anywhere in the world. This group of ordinary citizens, elected by all who vote, elects, in turn, the nation's president and vice president. Though the college still stood, Natapoff worried that sometime soon, well-meaning reformers might try again to destroy it. The only way to prevent such a tragedy, he thought, would be to get people to understand the real but hidden value of our peculiar, roundabout voting procedure. interesting take. read the article before you start flaming plz, he has some good points.
Cable modem tests for the PS2 are going on now in japan./shrug. can't remember the name of the city off the top of my head, osaka i think? the 2nd largest city besides tokyo.
The point of my comment was that, DC seems to be a much better platform right now. And I don't think there is any excuse for that, other than Sony is just complacent, and people are stupid enough to believe what they say. easy excuse: its been out longer. developers have had kits for the DC longer. US release vs. US release, DC has over a YEAR of lead time. now if people would compare launch titles to launch titles, i'd love to hear about it, or wait 4 or 6 months before passing any real judgement (then again, w/ sony's fubar w/ the chip production, not many people will have'em in even 4 months.)
Week, by week, by week the great Gods of Slashdot deliver upon us editorialized half-rants about privacy concerns---and it just does not seem like that big a deal to me. and nothing ever seems to get done, just a bunch of people post saying 'oh, thats bad. that company is EVIL. lets boycott them' and then 2 days later everybody (figuratively speaking) goes out and buys a PS2 (just an example). maybe someone should start activistdot.org, where actions speak louder than words.
He loaded the car from his memory card, but the game wouldn't let me load a car from his. So we had to manually swap the memory cards, load from his, and then swap back i believe this might be due to the type of VS race you chose, kinda like the VS mode in GT2 where i'm racing cars in my garage against cars in your garage.
this is more of a implementation in the game, than an overall requirement, but i agree, it currently can suck.
"Bar codes were a giant leap forward for their time because they made it quick and easy to capture data," said Sanjay Sarma, associate professor of mechanical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Cambridge, Mass.). "But these new chips have the potential to completely eliminate the human element, which even the bar code couldn't do." yeah, just let lose the Nanites and they'll go swarm all the house that have tags for any OpenSource book or cd or any other media, reducing it down to raw materials for more M$ CDs/DVDs (since office 2005 will come on 5 DVD ROMs)
"There are going to be trillions of tags like these on all kinds of consumer products, and they'll tell us exactly where those products are in the supply chain at all times," said Larry Kellam "hmmm, all these 'Debby Does Dallas' tags are coming from that house, what a weirdo"
"the signatures from those 2 stolen cases of PS2's are coming from there..."
"click, click, Hey! that house over there has a tag for that new Expensive TV set, lets go break in and steal it!"
DC's use of a VMU for memory and the presentation of additional game content is wonderful, and far superior to the antiquated memory cards sold for PS2, sony pocketstation. just cause its not out in the USA doesn't mean it doesn't exist. and the pocketstation was out before dreamcasts' VMU was out.
ESPECIALLY since many games don't let players load from an arbitrary memory card, in the same way anyone can load anything from any VMU in most DC games not sure what you mean by this.
For example, only 2 controller ports are included on the unit? That's a braindead move, ensuring that fewer games will be made to use more than 2 controllers
only 2 ports on the deck, but you can plug in 2 multitaps(+4 players each) for up to 8 players. and most of the sports games do currently support 8 players.
i wonder why they are even bothering to see if their new toy is 'secure'. they'll probably just DMCA anyone who tries to release a sig-stripper or demarker.

note to FreeMath: jupiter has no 'earthlike' surface, but there is a delineation of what is jupiter and what is not. just like a theoritical sphere has no 'real' surface, but it still has a surface. and since we haven't looked too deep into jupiter, there might be solid matter in there somewhere.

if this is true, we won't have to upgrade the kernel to function past 2038 (or is it 2034?) well, 2^32 seconds past epoch, whenever that is.
