Personally I believe that all members of the Government should state what their 'end game' is and try to move the country+world in the direction of the 'end game', my end game would be everything's free, people have enough space to live in and no one is under the control of anyone else.
Look, I have unlimited ADSL account. I leave my WIFI Open for anyone who happens to be in range to connect to as a public service, if that's someone parked in there car acting shifty then so be it. If I wanted to block access to others it's easy I can hide my router, put in a security key and only allow certain mac addresses to connect, but I don't and anyone else who doesn't is 'asking' for people to use their WIFI point.
10% of the male population dies in the English civil war so that we didn't have to rent world+dog from the landlords and that includes open WIFI networks.
If the Police(Government) do it then it's not a crime, if the plebs do it then it is.
I don't know how you missed the fact that we've hardly been sliding down the slope in the UK since the end of the cival war that gave us the liberties in the first place.
When you consider that the Government will ask you to send them personal details via insecure, unsigned Email that they leave on servers and sell on EBay Bin Larden seems like the least of the Government's intelligence problems.
He should have gone for cheep intel/amd processor possibly under clocked to keep the heat down, myth TV + addons a touch screen and something like dasher instead of a keyboard. Everything could have been stored on a writeless server.
Well, Windows runs under decimal time and I'm fairly sure that most unix systems count in seconds and milliseconds.
60 has factors of (1),2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30 making it easy to deal with a fraction of an hour.
I assume by decimal time you mean 100's not 10's 100 has factors of (1),2,4,5,10,20,25,50 making it quite a bit harder to deal with fractions of an hour.
If this were the great firewall of china everyone would be up in arms, this smacks of one rule for the rest of the world and one for the children.
I remember being a child, I used to go out shooting with friends (and no adults), I saw my fair share of porn and violent and horrific movies. Has it turned me into a violent oppressive adult, or and adult who can see the oppression of the freedom of out youth.
If you can't take it, then go to Church, but don't force you discriminatory opinions on everyone else.
I used to go hunting when I was a child and haven't killed anyone I know about. Compair that the the unreality of GTA's which is only slightly more interesting movie.
What did you do when you were young? stay indoors all day and get mollycoddled by you parents. Gees, most people I went to school with saw no end of horror movies and porn, and I don't believe any of them have ever been arrested for violent behavior or sexual assault.
They can't, only synthetic genes and the process of creating them can be patented. It's like the other post trying to claim that the sun fell under his unshielded fusion reactor parent. He can patent an unshielded fusion reactor that works exactly the same way as the sun but not the sun itself.
Easy, the patent is enforceable from the day it was applied for, since public review occurs after the application whoever stole the idea will have to pay damages for infringing on a patent.
Where the fuck is the refresh button? After ten minutes you work out it's the little button next to the right of the URL entry bit.
Click the address bar and press enter, or press F5 with the page selected, all standard windows and kde stuff.
The home icon on the left hand side of the screen is in that default position, unexpanded, where did my Favourites go or everything else go?
Look at the home button, see the arrows to the right, that means that there are more buttons to the right, try clicking or expanding the box.
Seriously, this looks like it was designed by an amateur software development team. This is meant to be the Firefox killer?
What does the Avalonaffied version look like, maybe Microsoft want people to be Vista or what ever it gets called after Vista sue Microsoft.
I used to earn $87,330, I lived with my brother $29692 and sister $20,959 and a lodger 38,425.2.
that's a total of £176,406.. woopie
Living in the UK I couldn't get a mortgage on anything other than a two bedroom hovel.
Being skinny in the west shows that:
1: You don't have a plebian office job.
2: You have enough free time to exercise properly, and enough money to afford a personal trainer.
3: You can afford fresh fruit and vege and don't eat cheep junk food like burgers, and white bread.
4: You have enough money to buy the drugs that keep you thin.
Just look at pictures from the seventies compaired with today, the main difference is that everyone in the seventies is skinny!
When Microsoft was dragged through the courts the US Gov had plenty of chance to do the right thing, but they decided to overturn Jackson and allow Microsoft's monopoly to thrive and hurt everyone.
Each BlueGene/C chip contains almost 100 processors (each running at 500 mhz), and there are going to be tons and tons of those chips in the final machine.
But what the 5th gen computing society wants to know is, will it be running prolog?
I used to have a real to real with load of origional 70's and posibly earlier recordings on tape, and I never had a single problem with them.
I can see that newer tapes my crumble after a few years as a form of copyright management.
RTFA, Designer != Programmer, it takes quite a while to write a 2d scrolling game engine, but an hour or so to make a game with shoot-em-up construction kit.
The z engine and the AIGused to create commercial adventure games like zork and leasure suit Larry.
My sister has no problems writing adventure games when she was around ten years old using a simple point and click adventure game engine, so I'm sure budding game designer will have no problems either, the benefits of designing text or lo-fi games is that you are forced to concentrate on the story and interactivity and not on how pretty can I make the graphics.
before you fuckers suggest that I go in to work an hour earlier
Try getting a better job, one where you can take that extra hour off to go on a bike ride, or maybe buy some lights for your bike.
Simple:
They put on their most expensive hardware an OS that they don't support. on laptops
I would expect high availability servers to be 'simpler' than laptops, especially when it comes to the desktop side of things. No sound, No broken ATI drivers etc.... and I also expect the kinda people who'd be running the hardware to fork out more on support than the total cost of you laptop.

1: Take existing idea
2: Insert the word computer
3: Patent
4: Proffit!!!
1/20 != 5/60, there going to be more like 3 and 7 minute blocks than 5 or 10 minute blocks after currency exchange.
but I'm sure you know people who work with 10 or 5 minute blocks. that's 1/6 and 1/12 and not possible with metric.
If we all had 6 fingers on each hand math would be a whole lot easier.
And if your using Java on x86, don't forget to use jrockit from weblogic It's quite a bit faster than standard Java
