It's slightly better.
The master system helps a bit (players take master, and can then kick players if this kind of thing happens--the master system, as it isn't perfect, will always be under revision, though).
I've actually noticed people cheating a lot less than they used to. Especially on the "known" servers.
Just thought I've give a bit of an update.
If you want to REALLY follow what's up, try the forum.
Seriously, I tried the precompiled binary from Mozilla, and I found it rather lacking in speed.
So, I got the source and compiled it with a few optimizations (-O3, -march=prescott, -msse3, -mmmx) and did a PGO build, and fired up the result--it was damn snappy.
Or, you might just want to look into Swiftweasel (Linux-only). It's basically the same, but pre-built.
One other thing I didn't try was building for 64-bit. After having this computer for a year and a half, I just yesterday realized the processor was 64-bit.:P
Actually, I'm pretty sure that there are some display technologies in development that don't depend on being lit from behind, which most, if not all, or today's display technologies are.
I remember reading an article in a magazine a year or two ago about cell phone screens that were being made on the same principle of the reflectivity of certain butterfly wings. (Part of a larger article on science imitating nature, also included a bit about gecko feet and impellers.
There's quite a bit on Wikipedia about display technologies, feel free to spend some time perusing it. Here's a good place to start.
Slashdot Mirror
I believe birthday notifications are part of the Events application, which comes as part of a new account.
...with Rockbox, no less. Nothing beats a nice indexed USB mass storage device.
Really? Then why do we still have radios? And over-the-air TV?
This should not surprise you. The US legislature (among other branches) has been retarded for some time now. (I should know, I'm an American.)
Impersonating an officer, most likely.
Mixed messaging? Not really. I think it states the RIAA's message pretty clearly: "GIVE US YOUR MONEY!"
Clearly, you haven't seen what the stories in the Firehose are like...
You say that in jest, but you pretty accurately summarized most unions' stance on labor.
Maybe, but his haircut is irrelevant. This was just irresponsible.
He could nail the phone to his head. That'd satisfy all his conditions.
YouTube link for illustration. (The hydrant failure occurs at 1:19 in the video.) Are you SURE that's not water?
Yes, that sounds about right.
Is it, though? The "child" portion of the image was entirely non-pornographic.
I'd like to see your source for that allegation.
Except it's not. "i.e.", or "id est", translates literally as "that is", as in a clarification.
As opposed to...?

That whooshing sound you hear? It isn't the particles in the LHC. It's the joke flying past your head.
Close. When a machine dies at Google, they just let it rot. It's cheaper than replacing it. (Or so I've heard.)
In a related vein, anyone know if there's a BOINC project for the LHC? I know there was one for the simulations...
Compile it yourself.
:P

Turn off your monitor. ;)
There, all the true black you need
Maybe they're taking said "better communication" and attempting to affect (i.e. change) it...?

Also, a summary of the illusion article: The brain uses context, rather than absolute sampling.
And today's XKCD references the vulnerability itself:
