Hmmm, ever consider that the world might consider picasa the better software? Seriously, I use FF because I believe it to be better. I include links to the FF site. That increases it's rank. Suppose I link to picasa as photo software. Wait for it... It goes up in rank!!!!! Seriously, I have to say "grow up." This is the real world, and Google is innocent until proven guilty. Hack their system and prove that they screw with re results.
This of course, ignores the fact that as a corporation, they have their right to do as they please with results.
I'm disappointed. I've met you personally before, heard you speak about how important recommendations for FF were. Well, and is it wrong for Google to recommend what they believe in?
I understand your confusion over the pre-determined keys, but another post explained that.
However, You say you would like to do an exhaustive search for the other keys, but I'm afraid that won't work. They use public/private key encryption, similar to PGP. This system is designed to prevent you from discovering any other private key. Simply, the fact that we already have the key for the whole disk just saves us the trouble of trying each key against the disk, a very small detail. (however when repeated 10^128 times the time savings may be significant) However, the method to find this key may be applied to other players, I don't know.
I'm interested in further development in this project, although, I doubt that I ever find the need for HD DVD content myself. I like seeing the *AAs trip over them selves.
I get 3 seconds from standby on Windows XP, 8 seconds from hibernate. (Never have gotten Ubuntu or Knoppix hibernate features to work) Anyway, my two cents.
But, While Ubuntu might not run on the '64 Linux will run on a power PC.
Besides which, I think you're missing something here. Apple has always restricted you to THEIR hardware, essentially a "hardware key" for their software. In order to use their software, you must first buy their hardware, which comes licensed with their software, so they don't really need activation keys or whatnot. You must have bought their product in order to use their software.
I'm not trying to bash apple here, I think that they are a good company. Sometimes a little misguided, but they appear to have their costumers intrests at heart. However, I know in the past that upgrading the hardware on an apple could be difficult due to their hardware lockdown, which retricts my rights as a consumer. This may have changed, I haven't worked on a Mac lately.
This is the point that I think is being argued here. I can't use my files like I want on M$ products, and I can't listen to my music on whatever player I want if I buy with Apple. These, among the many other restictions on these porducts is my (and many other/.er's reason for using Linux)
Make sure you know what you're talking about before you make a statement about someone else's software. I will validate my statement with my own experiance, you should try linux before you bash it.
Well, I see the problem as, his having defined "undefined" as a New Thing (TM) and teaching it to his students without consulting any other experts. If you want to change the world, go ahead and try, but please don't ruin a child's life in doing so. Establish it as legite math in the colleges first, then move down. I don't have a problem with his idea, I think it is wondeful. But his method of publishing it is all wrong. -My two cents.
Because a lot of things in America really do suck. Not everything, and America is probably still the best place to live, but it gets worse everyday. These posts are rants against the members of the American public that are too ingnorant to see that they are destroying thier and others' freedoms.
I probably ought to post AC, but I want others to know what I think.
Ok, he expressed his opinion. Don't shoot him for it. He even backed it up with some facts and examples that most everyone should understand. I do believe you need to read your own post before posting. You violated:
Point one: Name calling
Point three: Thoughtful. Anyone can quote.
Point four: Name calling again. Although you can redeem yourself.
The rest is just for Linux. However, YOU need to learn to be polite, read, and form your own thoughts.

Wrong, your employer could visit the site.
Don't say "you could have the page disappear after one visit," because then your boss will say you can't check the site.
Funny yes. But he has a good point. The point of not being able to verify your ballot after submission is to prevent vote-mongering. Besides which, what do I do if I discover I voted wrong? Nothing. What if mine was counted wrong? (don't know how that works, more privacy invasion I imagine) I suppose I could call and ask for a recount (2000 anyone?) but, they can't even verify that mine was the one counted wrong.
Verify with extremely high assurance that all votes were counted properly
Really pointless and dangerous if you ask me.
However the Mormon's ratio was quickly corrected by even more immigrants, and if I'm not mistaken, a few years later, women outnumbered the men.
A small society can compensate by integrating outsiders, however, China will have difficulty doing this because of their culture. Women are nothing to them. Now, women who want to move there, please raise your hands. See the issue. (Interestingly, this subject came up in Decathlon today, where the subject this year is China.)
The dig was likely the most documented excavation yet of a meteorite find...
"We know it is recent," said Carolyn Sumners, director of Astronomy at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, as she surveyed progress on the dig. "Native Americans could have seen it."...
The Brenham field was discovered in 1882. Scientists have since traced pieces of the shower as far away as Indian mounds in Ohio, indicating the meteorites were traded as pieces of jewelry and ceremonial artifacts.
Certainly the most documented, but, I see a few hundred years of undocumented excavation in spite of that. I hope other excavations do better than that.
I, for one, would like to welcome our new, genetically perfected, websearching, mouse overlords.
On the other hand, they haven't done any of these things on their own yet, so, obviously they don't have AI yet.
My first thought exactly. I always wished that more had been said about the two races that show up in the future though. I don't think he spends nearly enough time examining the possibilities.
I do believe Pandora has a bitrate of 128 bps. Maybe not high enough for some, but I can't tell the difference. I'll keep listening. It's free music, what can I say.
I used to tell them my zip code was "nine-zero-two-one-zero."
Ok, so that isn't your zip code. Is there supposed to be somethin else there, or am I looking to hard?

I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that's a hardware problem.

Intrestingly enough, that is exactly what the German Goverment does, except they store their archives underground.

I think you hit the nail on the head. Just wanted to mention that since I don't currently have any mod points.
If thats what you need IE for perhaps you should read http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/11/14/143 9215 about FireFox.

Long Live Linux!

My Linux toaster only goes cold when the power dies. On the other hand, the data has become a lot more crispy lately.
However, it does support hot keys, effectively negating your argument.
