It's important to realize that the US DOD efforts never had as many nodes interconnected as we have now. The internet is no longer entirely decentralized. It is a mix. If my ISP goes out, all of the customers lose connectivity. If my ISP's trunk goes down, all the other trunk customers lose connectivity. The only real redundant connections are on high-end nodes like yahoo.com. It is realitively simple to remove entire states from the internet if one knows where the major trunk switching buildings are. Most states have just one building that would need to be targeted. The internet wouldn't fall, but large chunks can be severed from each other.
Besides, the map covers more territory than just the internet. Your banking system was not designed to be a decentralized, redundant system.
it is a typical paradox. You can't get linked unless you are linked. That is, you can't get in the google search to be found. Which came first? The link or the page? I would guess the link.
Beyond not knowing the current capacity.. or the amp-hours.. your multimeter is reading the surface voltage; the battery needs to be under load to know whether it actually holds charge or not.
Slashdot is not about any of that... Slashdot is "News for the editor. Stuff that we like." and if you think any differently then you are sorely mislead.

The problem is not wether we can sit by each other in a theater... we have to look at each other then. The problem comes from the fact that on the internet ppl have little remorse for defacing websites because they ppl they live around have no clue what they did... no social punsihment.
And to make this issue more broad, the curfew law was struck down by the court for being unconsitutional. A curfew law is the goverment taking a parent's role. But what this really interesting is that the mayor who passed this "No Violent Games" law is the same mayor trying to create a city ordinance to circumvent the courts ruling that the curfew law was unconsitutional. If I could vote, I would vote against him.
Silence in the middle of a mp3 wouldn't hurt at all. And ad has to be at the beginning or end, and it is gonna be only a small fraction of the mp3. So, as long as we say that it is at max 5,10,20 seconds from the end of the mp3, then we only have to worry if the mp3 has long enough break in our ad "window". Notably though any mp3 that does have this problem could be reported to a database with a md5 sum and a correct chop point could be made.
Dude, you have no clue what you are talking about. Z80 is perfectly fine for making such a game. And you can use tables bigger than 256 bytes, but you would have to make your own routines to search through it since cpir uses a 8bit loop counter, but anything else you would use is 16bit. FYI, there is 16bit addition... if there wasn't it would be impossible to do any kind of pointer manipulations... add hl,xx exists. Besides some ppl find the register dancing fun rather than simple lines of C. And to this day gameboys still use bank swapping to allow addressing more memory. Don't go bashing z80 just because we could put some 20x more expensive chip in there and not have to swap memory and do register dancing. Get a clue...
This already existed for several of the TI calculators... all you really need is some terminal software for the calc to be capable. Most do by now... This is just the first instance of it being fully implemented. No one else cared to finish one of these because 1) The screen is too small, 2) The keyboard is too akward, 3) Not too many ppl have dial-up accounts to a shell anymore, and 4) Why would you want to anyways?
Now we will have to protect our selfs virus that _really_ stink. Imagine a virus that makes your room smell like skunk, dog poo, and bill gates' butt. Or, imagine a virus that will let out a fart when your beautiful date arrives and is getting friendly? Smelll is a powerful weapon...

I dunno but you are pretty narrow minded to think the crawlers haven't learned to look for *AT*DOT*

There is a lot of half-baked codecs and proprietary standards, but deal with it. If you want to hear their shit, then deal with Real Audio.

Most HD manufacturers use 1000^3 as there GB... makes the drive sound larger if you are used to using 1024^3 as your base of measurement.
Then, it is 68,509 disks
If you listen at the end of the movie... You can hear Jay say, "Snoogins..." Which as we know, means he is joking.
Um, that is this guy...

Anyone else catch the ascii in that binary:
"sign-with-a-0101011101010101010101000010 dept."
"sign-with-a-WUT dept."
The space is the what is left of the last binary stream.... ok, back to having a life
