Does anybody remember tiananmen Square, when the army ran down a guy with a tank?
They are complaining about the IEEE breaking the rules.
They should write their congressman.
Oh wait, they don't have any.
We have 15 people. Vista makes me cringe. Can you imagine for large companies. What a nightmare.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Why would anyone in a corporate environment move to Vista? Oh yeah, better multimedia. Well, that's important for workers.
OK Here is the part of the article that I like...
Now, e-mail users, marketers and mailing list operators are more worried that spam filters are blocking
Does anyone see the hilarity in this? Marketers and mailing list operators are worried that their spam isn't getting to people because of spam blocking.
Umm, yes...that's the idea.
What makes some marketer think that I want their email? Pretty good chance that I do not.
I think the problem was that the file was included on the CD/DVD and through some tampering of file names the images in question would be displayed.
I don't think the ESRB would be so worried if you had to download a file and put it in a directory. Not much Bethesda could do about that, but the fact that the file was included on the disk was the problem.
Sort of a due dilligence issue, I think. But when it comes down to it, it's Bethesda's fault for leaving the file on the disk in "rendered" format.
The natural progression from a land based satellite killer is to start arming satellites, for defence purposes naturally. It will lend itself to covert satellites (cause there aren't any now, nudge nudge) and all sorts of other technology aimed at killing machines and people.
Then other satellites, guards, will be sent into orbit. They will have to be smart to be able to defend.
Hey, I even have a name for it....Skynet.
We have a DVR based on a Linux DOM (Disk on module) that on top of being linux, does a fresh install on every bootup.
We call it the LE Series, and it is quite affordable, and should have no problem controlling any Pelco PTZs you have connected to the system.

I love it when people claim that an individual is breaking an international law.
International law is for nations, not for individuals.
Oh ah, he called the FBI. Well, there is certainly no criminal intent in what was said, if anything there might be some civil application, but I really doubt it.
Hey, how is that "freedom of the press" thing and blogs working out in the United States anyway?
The Prisoner was unique in many aspects.
I would put it akin to the book version of Hitch hiker's guide to the galaxy.
Now there was a fantastic book, with all sorts of insight and clever commentary.
The Prisoner was a social comment on our times. We know this because it has been parodied on "The Simpsons".
In any case, the new version will ruin a classic which is a sad thing. Why can't people just think up new things, instead of ruining old things.
Doesn't this mean that we are allowed to sell our old licenses? If you upgrade a bunch of machines to XP from Windows 2000, and you buy full licences of XP, wouldn't you be allowed to sell the windows 2000 copies?
Are they going to be using the license on the same machine? Surely this means that I can transfer my Windows XP Pro to the new machine if my old machine is no longer going to have an OS on it?
Is this going to work in the US as well? What about Canada?
Does it set a precedent I wonder?
The UN is a great institution, but it has several problems. The first is that a country has to sign the treaty (ratify) before it can even be asked to comply with the treaty.
The second is that the UN has got to be the biggest beuroacracy in the world. Everyone has to play nice and compromise to get what they want.
While this isn't a bad thing, it will stop the speed and the fluidity that makes the internet what it is today.
I am not saying that the Americans should have control over the Internet, but it certainly shouldn't be the UN.

So, if you are making minimum wage, you are not expected to have ethics?

The cost of freedom is eternal vigilence. They good guys have to win all the time. The bad guys only have to win once. It's sad, but it's true.
If you go to Amsterdam, you can see monkeys and humans breeding live right NOW!!
You will never please everybody. If you try, you will end up pleasing nobody. If you don't like something, then don't use it. That's the Canadian way!

Well what do you know???? When I was there, our pride was highest alcoholic consumption per capita of any school in Canada. Whew hew, times change.
Can I be against both?

Some math 45% + 30% + 14% + 10% +5% +5% = 109% So they are saying that -9% people have broadband? well...I don't know.
