That sounds highly inconvenient for all involved. Drilling a hole to feed cables, having to find the key and unlock whenever it crashes/need rebooting, general atmosphere of mistrust in the house...
How do you define pornography. Like art, I cannot, but I know it when I see it.
So do followers of Sharia. This issue goes far deeper than even your point.
Wait... that's "far out there"? The Internet has replaced the encyclopedia as the #1 place schoolchildren go to get basic facts about most of the topics they study in school. And if parents want their children to be able to use the Internet for that purpose without seeing pictures of highly explicit, extremely graphic sexual acts -- we're not talking Playboy here -- that's "far out there" in your view?
The fact that they beleive they can succeed in the overall goal (no sexuaully explicit material in any form), regardless of any moral or logical justification, is laughable. They cannot uninvent it in it's myriad forms throughout history -- imaginative, pictorial, actual -- and to again seize on technology as if "corrupting the children" is some new threat shows that the most vocal proponents of religion are ignorant and backward people.
Citing expert witness reports, he wrote, "I find that filters generally block about 95% of sexually explicit material"
He doesn't get the driving force behind the people who want these sort of laws. They don't want to reduce the SEM their children see, they want to eliminate it completely and will never be happy otherwise. Which shows just how far out there they really are. You can't uninvent things.
wouldn't it seem somewhat cruel to create these creatures and then torture them?
I dunno, it's not like we don't have precedent:
Oh God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe says, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"
God say, "No." Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
If your system uses 99% of memory routinely, that is a problem. You have to wait for some of it to unload before new applications can run, which takes time. This is not good management.

You know how animals like deer and cattle innately understand when a natural disaster is coming and instinctively seek safer ground?
Could've fooled me. Let me go search a few news sites for the phrases "thought he saw a gun" or "thought he smelled marijuana" or "thought he heard a gunshot." I could limit it to this year only if slashdot comments have a line limit.
The "they're-coming-right-for-us!!" reflex always supercedes training. It would not surprise me if such a wild scenario eventually happened.
Unless it requires a proprietory player (which opens up a whole other level of stupid), they'll just be able to fast forward in WMP. I'm not aware of any feature that disables seek in the actual application (web windows can do it), though.wmv or.asf sometimes don't seek by their own nature.
Heck, just the sound alone if you neglect to turn it off or the headphone jack slips. I think an air marshall hearing an errant shotgun blast or rocket explosion would jump at the chance to increase his real life score by popping the guy right in his seat.

so why not just use the wired phones that are already installed on the plane?
The per-minute cost is approximately infinity billion dollars.

Step 1: Unplug ethernet from firewall
Step 2: Plug ethernet directly in back of PC
Step 3: Profit
Step 4: Rewire to hide evidence
Admittedly, I've never owned a physical firewall, but I can't imagine it'd be any different than bypassing the wireless router.

Protip: Imagination can (and in puberty surely does) all of these things.

If there's no porn in the US, then sites abroad will have it.
That's what's crusades are for! Remember, we had an "amen amen jesus jihad" phase too...

No, humans auto-perform that function. With gusto.

He's just saying that pain hurts, projecting their suffering onto us. It's something we can relate to and are reasonably sure exists in animals.

Rarely is the question asked: "Is our users learning?"

It might be something like that.
Yeah, I can just see Bush calling together a cabinet meeting and spouting forth a few classic zingers on how to "bomb" the internet.
"We fight the internet over here so we don't have to fight it over there"
"If the internet is not with us, its with the terrorists"
They should've played nicer with the internet. Now it's taking it's ball and going home. Hope being "right" was worth it!

Obviously. They heard electricity has "current" and assumed he was trying to bring liquid on board - ie, a turrist.
How will this work? (Link is, predictably blocked at work for having *torrent* in the url).
Downloads only happen when the client is full-screen/ad playing?
Workaround: shut off monitor/speakers, make sandwich
Videos interspersed with ads?
Workaround: Annoying, but use virtualdub to take them out.
Popups/software required?
Workaround: figure it out or just stick to Paarrite Bay
