They don't want their natural listings (or ad listings I imagine) to be filled with hundreds of copies of exactly the same site.
A new copy of an old site may well be a scam or a phishing site. _If_ the guy tripped a dupe filter, that means Google just let it slide as long as he paid 10x what the original site paid.
Actually, you have a right to get access to all the info a private company has stored on you. Write them a snail mail and they'll have to send you everything. As others have pointed out, only headers and phone records would be stored, but it would be a nice act of civil disobedience to DDoS them via snail mail. If thousands of customers want records kept in a huge pile of plain text logs somewhere, it'll bog the average ISP down pretty well.
How can a web designer get access to the browser of the end user? It's usually not the customer you deal with that is the end user of the site. Can you imagine a small note on the ibm.com frontpage telling you to switch default fonts on your browser to follow their style guidelines?

Usually the bottleneck in 3-d performance is the graphics card; yours isn't six years old. Still, it would be interesting to see how an old P3 with a newer graphics card performs.
They are mammals. Most of their bodies work the same as ours although they are on different scales. They have muscle tissue, brain tissue, eyes, a skeleton etc. that work the same way ours do. They are similar enough to us that many/most of the same drugs that work on us work on them. Apart from size and shape there are no major differences.
So, while it's not so untrue that America is becoming a services based economy, I think it would be more accurate to say that it is becoming an UNSKILLED or lesser-skilled services economy.
That's a fairly dystopian future. I've read some fairly counterintuitive writings on how the value of the US to the world economy is in providing consumers. Although it's well known that the imbalance between exports and imports is paid for by foreign investors, that has never made sense to me either. Add to these two a movement of the US workforce to proving low-level services to each other and wtf can sustain this? Chinese businessmen paying American couch potatoes to watch TV ads?
The letter "Ä" in swedish is usually pronounced like the "A" in the english word "Car", whereas the letter "Ä" in finnish is usually pronounced like the "A" in the english word "Black".
I'm from Finland and 'bläk' is how a word pronounced like the english 'black' would be written.
Balsemao said consumers were drawn online by free content but this needed to change, he said.
"The value of content must be understood by consumers so that new business models can evolve.
Yeah. Not only must those who provide free content realize that those who provide equal or worse content must get to charge for their equal or inferior product; those who read free content must understand that it's better for everyone if they choose to pay for an alternative, without getting any more than they would get for free.
Balsemao, if you're reading this, pay me or my new business model will never evolve!
Although parent is trollish, the point is still valid. It's not that p2p content is free that makes me choose it. The free content is better in most ways that count. Official, legal channels can do better than illegal ones in two ways; assured quality and convenience. Guaranteed low quality and draconian DRM screw up both of these.
Imagine what trouble Diesel would be in if the fakes had the quality of the original while the official product lost their color and shrank the first time you wash them.
If you have a dual processor system with two single core processors and find yourself needing a bit more, swapping one for a dual core is the cheapest way to upgrade.
Anyway, the PS3 will only use 7 of them for some reason,
Cost is the reason. Not all Cell processors pass testing without at least one of the cores failing, so they sell the processors with seven working cores cheaper.
The US wants ICANN to have the appearance of being an international organization without any single country in control, while still reserving the option of stepping in to overturn any decision the US government doesn't like. More on these tactics.
Only on Slashdot does a larger power supply make people think of porn...

But of course it would be a lot simpler to fake and/or emulate IE's responses to sneak in; and to bitch loudly to the sites.
That's hardly the solution Microsoft would recommend. Then again, perhaps they're giving up the dream of a proprietary-Microsoft-only World Wide Web?
Can't wait for what the Haxors come up with!
It's funny. Laugh.

The friend of my competitor is not necessarily my enemy. Novell wants both to prosper on _their_ platform.

I read your comment before TFA. Apparently they
'engage in what is known as "tusking," where two males gently rub tusks together, Dr. Nweeia said. He added that the Inuit seldom report aggressive contact, undermining ideas of ritualized battle.'
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Two questions: a) How old is Netscape-Enterprise/4.1 and b) How long until that server has hello.jpg on the front page?
On a more positive note, I think you'd be great on this show.
In other news, Windows Vista will be buggy, no one will upgrade Office and Sony is overrated because they're evil. So why aren't we all rich?
