I don't know where you buy your CFLs from, but the ones I have come on like any normal incandescent light build does.
I guess you either live somewhere that's warm all the year round or you heat your rooms 24 hours a day. In winter mornings my room temperature is about 5 degrees C and it takes a minute for the CFLs to reach normal brightness. My wife insists that we keep the stairway light on all night so that the stairs are well lit, so I am not exactly sure we save any energy.
I read a while ago that for space use the older integrated circuits are many times more reliable. On a new high density IC a cosmic ray can knock out a connection track, whereas on older "8-bit" processors you would need thirty or forty hits in the same place.
Congratulations to all the Postgres developers and a big thank you from me for an amazing job! Postgres is a wonderful RDBMS and one of the best free software projects there is. Rock on!
Apart from that it now really is just about the only alternative to Oracle or Microsoft.
If I hadn't already posted, I'd mod you insightful. While a small number of people doing it would look suspicious, a large number of people would make it really hard to deal with.
But if it's a one time pad, then it doesn't make any sense to ask for decryption key, right? The pad is the decryption key. To nab you, a court would have to assume that not giving a key to a one time pad is illegal somehow. Then everyone in possession of a one time pad would be a criminal. Do you think that would fly in USA, for one?
Of course you should probably have the false "one time pad" on some separate storage like a USB key, and have a "semi interesting" file on your computer actually xor encrypted with it. Then you can say "these are company confidential sales figures, and this is the key".
Would that be a tatoo on your arse designed to be viewed with 3d glasses?
It could open up some interesting lines: "Hey babe, if you like 3d movies I've got something to show you!" or "now your here would you like to come upstairs and take a look at my anaglyph?"
Of course they need users, but they also need a central organization and a LOT of servers.
Undoubtedley the will, but the system is designed to be distributed. Anyone can add a machine as a server. If enough people do it they might get somewhere - it worked for bittorrent.
I really don't think we should encourage this. Flashers are perverts, and that is all there is to it. Some well meaning people might think that giving them a square plugin (I assume they mean butt plug) will keep their mind off it for a while, but it will just lead to greater depravity.
People will be looking through "private" data when they're bored - be it Facebook messages, Twitter DMs, GMail emails, or Slashdot private journals.
In the latter case they usually run out screaming "aaaaaghhhh...." never to be seen again. Access logs show they have been reading a file named "CowboyNeal's sexual fantasies".

It's serious crime. Just because murderers get the same sentence doesn't mean it's a bad sentence. The murderers should get more, not him less.
In the view of the current legislature it comes somewhere above killing your grandmother but below burning the qur'an.
unofficial hack so that it will 'wash' your pubes.
No Steve Jobs claims the ultimate prior art. He is a pod person.
A gang of thieves armed with a powerful vacuum cleaner that sucks cash from supermarket safes has struck for the fifteenth time in France.
That sucks!
Is "I'm looking for the man who killed my father" a valid reason in Spain?
You would probably have to add "he was carrying a sword just like this one, so I was bringing it along for comparison".
Really? Are they uh.. well I didn't know, that they were so close. Married, as it were. I guess when two companies love each other..
It got to me an ugly threesome when Oracle took Sun into the family home though. HP was no longer the manufacturer of the prestige exadata server.

That gives me e great idea. Fully reclining seats and nudist sunbathing flights.
The average adult sends or receives 10 texts a day
Wow. I sends or receive 10 texts a month!
I receive 10 a month.

Plus as a side benefit eventually someone would find that they were carrying a lost work of Shakespeare.

Give yourself a cookie. You've just invented steganography.
Well, I wonder what will happen when the exoskeleton will be infected by a virus.
The user will be like the proverbial spastic who walked past a magnet factory and kicked himself to death.
I thought it was Analglyph at first

First new word I leaned today: Anaglyph

Get my friends to join it. And then my friends' friends. And my friends' friends' friends. And their grandma.
And then Diaspora would look like a serious Facebook competition.
Then David Barksdale, I hear he's looking for a new social network site to hand out at.

sounds like an open invitation to David Barksdale

who watches the watchers?
Me. I stalk paedophiles. I keep looking over my shoulder for the guy who stalks people who stalks paedophiles though.
