People raised concerns when Australia was voting whether to accept OOXML as a standard. We were ignored, Australia went ahead and voted Yes.
Do you think they are going to care about any protests now that they have mandated using it? No way.
What do we do next? Protesting votes by voting out the politicians doesn't change who runs the govt departments - they just report to different ministers, and keep doing what they are doing. Until we get someone who actually (a) Understands, and (b) Cares, we are going to continue to be screwed. Unfortunately other industries experience the same issues, not just the IT industry
... and can no longer turn tight like they should be able to.
In the original movie the light cycles only made the right-angle turns whilst on the game-grid. As soon as Flynn, Tron and Ram escaped the grid their cycles behaved with 'real world' physics.
Assuming that the body-scan is 100% effective and your TSA agent isn't a snickering 15 year old...How does this violate anything that isn't already being violated?
The scans have not been proven to be 100% safe. Sure, the radiation levels are very low, but we know the effects are cumulative. For people who travel frequently, or even work in the airport (and still have to be scanned even though they don't actually fly) this adds up to a significant health risk.
If you look carefully, you might notice that the project is neither named nor linked.
That might be to avoid the hordes of slashdorks who cry 'Slashvertisement' at the slightest hint of anything that might resemble marketing/promotion. I think the submitter did the right thing in NOT naming/linking his product, to keep the discussion on the appropriate track instead of being diverted by opinions of how good/bad his program is.
Piss-poor ad though. How many people saw the video and thought "I must get me some of this graphing tool!"? My first thought was "interesting way of presenting information, but his graphing tool is crap".
Yes, he knows the firewall and the traffic. The question is - why is there suddenly traffic suddenly appearing from every country in the world at the same time? and again a number of hours later? And again 5 or 6 times? Suddenly there is inbound packets from every country in the world, for an hour or two, then it dies off. For some countries, the first 'stripe' is also the start of consistently higher traffic from that country. Does this mean anything?
I think it might be more useful to know the actual dates, and see if this corresponds with any spikes in spam or virus activity. What would be most useful would be know the dest port number of the inbound traffic, that could give us much better clues as to the reasons behind the patterns.
We do take proper precautions (e.g. have some space between kids if one is having a PBJ sandwich)
I'm glad you are taking a practical approach to this, and managing the problem yourself (and teaching your son take responsibility to manage his allergy as well).
For far too many parents, the solution would be to lobby the school to ban all peanut-based products outright. It doesn't solve the problem, doesn't help the allergic child learn to manage his own condition, and doesn't earn him any friends. My daughters school has done this, and now they have a school full of kids who mostly are not aware how serious this type of allergy can be.
Currently, drug companies only fund research that is guaranteed to develop drugs that can be patented, ignoring completely commonly available substances that could be beneficial.
They don't ignore the commonly available alternatives - as you already stated, they discredit, undermine or suppress the cheap alternatives.
The information is available on the internet, the hard part is finding genuine information amongst all the crap.
I find it incredible that in a country such as the US where everyone goes on all the time about their rights, that they can force mandatory vaccination and you do not have the right to choose not to be vaccinated.

I like the basic concept, but who gets the money from these fees?

Women (and men) cry for many reasons. Sadness, joy, pain, anger, ...
I am interested in seeing the effects of 'happy tears' on the same group of men. And the effects of both happy and sad tears on other women.

I don't think many medial mishaps would be corrected by a better understanding of calculus.
Although I think getting surgeons to simply count the number of utensils on the bench before and after each operation would help quite a lot.
'Raised eyebrows'? Maybe Google used RIAA's pricing model and asked for $10,000,000 per infringement.
People in Iraq don't own the oil under their land either.
He should have enough data points by now on how bad it is for him. (Unless they are all being filtered out of course).
Here's my prediction for the end - Conroy is not returned at the next election, and the internet filter issue dies a quiet death.
In order to do that someone will have to start a new religion based on South Park.
What about a religion based on freedom of speech?
it's all just going to end with more distended anuses.
I've never heard anyone refer to Rick Astley as such before.
... their subjective reality is more real than somebody else's subjective reality.
That's crap.

Yeah he does. All the plotted traffic is inbound. And yeah, botnet seems the most likely explanation.
Strange how they don't appear in the first half of the graph though. I didn't know that botnets took the weekends off.

Don't know. Pls get milk on yr way home.
Rutgers University oceanographer Scott Glenn ...
Interesting co-incidence - actor Scott Glenn played submarine captain Bart Mancuso in "The Hunt for Red October'.
Doesn't the newest version of the VI client (with vSphere 4.0) allow this?

So what? Greg Norman has played golf everywhere, it's no big deal.

Hard decision whether to mod this or comment, so I chose to comment so I can correct the erroneous information here.
You have chosen wisely.
