That defeats the purpose of a great system, which takes the form of extensions. The reason for the extentions is to organize websites into their respective topics, so that you will (generally) know either a sites orientation or location. Thinking about eBay, it is much more useful for me to go to eBay.ca then it is for me to go to eBay.com
The large companies would die for this. Imagine you are a small startup company, or you have a website for your own personal interests. Most can't afford the $1000 startup fee, so all it takes for a large company (think M$) to overshadow your domain, is to get the same one, but without the extension.
...reason why I believe the UN is powerless in a world where it's purpose is to envoke change and to stick up for those recieving abuse. It has been seen that the UN has failed in it's mission to protect those in the undeveloped worlds from harsh conditions. The US itself sticks its thumb against it's nose and wiggles it's fingers in the UN's direction. Now yes, the UN does alot of good, but as long as it has support from one of the big guys in the world. We see it's failure to work due to a 'big guy' once again with this, and I must say I am quite ashamed of it.
Anthrax cannot be spread because infected beings have only the actively growing bacteria and do not have the infectious spores. Darwin is gonna have a hell of a time (or at least take alot of it) in making anthrax contagious.
That would be true if this were contagious between people. However, anthrax is not known to spread from one person to another person. Communicability is not a concern in managing or visiting with patients with inhalational anthrax.
Really, there is no downside with the way Apple has handled the beginning of a transition into video. It seems unlikely that anyone planning to purchase an iPod would say, "wait a minute, I get a bigger, much better screen, larger storage, and thinner iPod for the same money as the old iPod--no way, I don't want that." Even if you exclude video capability, the new iPod has other features alone which might have ticked up the numbers. So, its hardly a surprise that Apple is happy with the results. I hope Apple is able to announce, before Thanksgiving, some big deal with at least one studio, for more content (e.g. Warner Bros., Paramount, etc.) which will include real movies. That will be the kicker for outstanding sales of the video iPod for Christmas.
This isn't really a new problem, as you can see from this article dated January 5, 2001. From the article: Amazingly, a large hosted-server operation can average the same power usage as a steel manufacturing plant.
An interesting article over at TechNewsWorld about how Blue Frog is not what we need in the battle against spam. "It's the worst kind of vigilante approach," said John Levine, a board member with the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial E-mail. "Deliberate attacks against people's Web sites are illegal."
Is it just me, or does anybody else think that these attempts might show some promise, but in the long end probably won't work. Basically this is the spamming world versus an organization which, in reality, uses spam right back to get the results they wish. Yes yes, I know you will all say they are using spam in the 'name of good' and all that, however, an organization without political ties will not be able to battle all those companies responsible for the spam in the first place. Until we see more government movement against spammers, I don't see much of a dent on the spam I am getting in my Inbox...
...Unless of course Blue Security would like a list of the spammers who are filling my email, then perhaps I will change my opinion;)
One must consider however that NASA is burdened with political and commercial pressure. However to say that space exploration is hitting a speed bump is quite stupid and incorrect. We are now in the time where personal and commercial space flights are nearing possible. I believe that commercial space flights are where the real adventure is. Sure, they don't have the capabilities that NASA does, however they are advancing their technology, and to have an adventure with one of these companies is a lot easier than becoming a NASA astronaut. If I remember one thing from my childhood, it is watching the movies where the hero jets around in his own space ship, and not having to listen to a governing body as to when and where he could fly.
10% of American's want to go there...But can even 5% or even more even afford to? The biggest issue is cost, which is definatly not effective at this time.

Anyway the article smells of someone trying to get posted on/. and not something of actual merit.
Isn't the biggest reason of releasing something into the public to get acclaim or notice from it? It doesn't matter if this person was trying to get onto/. or not. What matters is if the article itself holds water, which imo it does.
The people are ripe for it. You've heard stories about how ticket sales are plummeting at movie theaters, in favor of home DVD viewing. Why? Why do so many people want to work from home now? Because we're sick of having to sit with other people. We want that extra layer of control that meat interaction will never give us. We want a world without the unpredictability of real, unrestrained humanity.
Either that...Or DVD+/-R & DVDwriters prices are coming down.

The bad news for Microsoft: China decided to do this by switching to Chinese companies, many of which develop for Linux.

What about vice versa? Because I would love to see someone wall hacking irl
these are the real times we will all need a tinfoil hat. Who knows how Google will broadcast ads using a nationwide network of Wi-Fi

Why do you think space tourism has gotten such a huge response thus far?

In addition to this, who is to say someone cannot get emotionally attached to something that isn't physical?
