ISPs are not meant to police the web. they shouldn't be responsible for their users' security flaws; for content that users post on unmoderated servers; for blocking spam; or for preventing malicious application from working.
what they should be doing is providing internet services; like bandwidth, hosting, and email.
the sick man of europe when it comes to broadband? i'm a brit. i can walk out of my house for twenty miles in any direction and neither see a house without a broadband connection, nor be outside the range of wlans plugged into such [unless i catch the tube, in which case i am underground, and only get wlan access half the time]
you may not have noticed, but solar panels are black; or at least dark. white reflects energy, dark colours absorb energy. solar panels muct be dark. so no solar powered macs.
perhaps after silicon technology is exhausted? when the measurements are so small that the costs of development skyrocket, and/or moore's law ceases to apply.
doctor who and galactica are different breeds.
doctor who is very escapist, a normal person being taken on a wonderful, impossible, creative journey.
galactica is very human. it's documentary style, and it lookas at how people act under pressure. and stuff.
no, i definately don't want any of my commercial software checking the validity of it's licence key over the internet. and if it tries to do that without telling me that it will, all the more so. hence the need for outgoing-restrictive firewalls.
'* Finally, even thinking about spyware will be illegal!'
then just modify language so that nobody can adequately express what it is. newspeak will eliminate transgressors. 1984.
i hear that they're working on a software/hardware suite designed to pick up voice and digitze it (over a proprietary network), allowing for two-way communication. apparently, they're hoping to fit it all into something as small as a pocket calculator.
Please do not misinterpret my statement. I was not arguing for evolution, against pansperma, creationism or any of the other ideas that you have mentioned. I was merely pointing out that faith as a concept defies rational evidence, that's what faith is, after all see entry two. Faith defies evidence. That is not in question. The validity of such evidence is a completeley different matter for debate.
TOS and EULAs are very rarely accepted as a contract round here. many people break them, get sued and wind up winning: simply because the 'contracts' are ruled as unenforcable because the user never reads nor sees nor has a choice about them.

USB cables much?
we can. that would be the point at which we exhaust silicone technology. see?
it ceases to apply when it is no longer possible to double the number of components on a processor. there is a minimum size of components.

they were just Odysseus' men, not necessarily Ithacans. he also mustered troops from surrounding islands. apparently.
and they didn't so much face him down, as poke him in the eye with a pointy stick. after he dashed their friends' heads out on the floor.
no, but you would be wrong to say that you had some pizzas

with carrots, flies, and ink-eradicators, of course.
i apologise. i'm assuming that it's a reference to when he goes online with the gloves and the 'vr' headset?
