Does this mean that not everybody is allowed immortality even though the should have that right.
Does this view support his open sales of his product? Nope!
Hopefully at the same time as giving us all immortality, it will also transform us into ignorant love thy neighbour and thy neighbours dog, sterile buckets of lard!
I wish to pass on and when I do hopefully I will have made my mark somewhere on this planet or in this solar system. Because with an infinite existence, I don't really see that I will have a reason for creating or helping anyone anytime in the near future. This is not to say that I wouldn't do something, but the pressure to set goals has diminished somewhat!
Onward and outward to 80 something...
I put down 'Jedi' as my religion on my census form here in New Zealand. Actually I didn't fully intend for it to stay on the form, but I forgot that I'd put it there until after the guy picked it up in the evening. Haha. Never heard anything from them. Apparently they were altering any forms with 'Jedi' on them to 'Other'. So much for signing a declaration of your belief that you fill out the correct details, if they just change things that don't suit there needs.
Maybe the myriad of Spammers sending email out there could be a help to fill the FBI's disks with useless crap. As long as they're around there be lots of packets of crap to hide behind with the real encrypted data.
Besides there's still freenet.
Maybe someone could come up with an encryption algorithm that uses the same concepts as quantum computers yes, no and maybe and create a potential quantum race condition.;-)
Why not use the technology mentioned here and build a huge NanoNet to catch it.
Before you catch it you attach a large mass, say some of the old satellites/space junk, at the end of a long NanoBungi attached to the NanoNet and set it off towards the sun.
Time this so that the asteroid is captured in the NanoNet just before the tension takes in the NanoBungi and leave the rest up to gravity and the sun.
Sometime ago I read an Arthur C. Clarke book, I think it was called "Fountains of Paradise", which talked about exactly this type of technology and how it would be used.
I think the possibilities presented by this technology could revolutionise our space exploration capabilities as well as supply high bandwidth communications in the form of a huge spiderweb antennae surrounding the earth. and we could use that pulse coded transmission technology from TimeDomain to power it.
Assistant Majority Whip Mike Pence (R-Ind.), who serves on the House Science Committee and whose Indiana district includes the Magnequench world headquarters, stated that "America?s technological leadership is its future. We need to make sure that those who steal intellectual property are brought to the bar of justice."
I still can't accept this when America has such a lame patent acceptance. Just about anything and everything people can think of gets patented in America even before it's actually been created, sometimes it is never intended to be created. Then when someone outside of America comes up with the goods, the patent filed in America comes into play an stifles the innovation created elsewhere.
I wouldn't be surprised to find that when we run out of healthy air to breathe because of the push by a certain firm to use their disgusting HFC patent to peddle products. That they also hold the patent on a device to produce breathable air and any other form used to do this will be an infringment.
As long our economy depends on having a sole rights to something it will always do the same thing. People will have to pay for material things and then depend on them to deliver.
Many of my clients are not interested in paying for my services to fix or help them with some software the have just shelled out money for. Huh. Common quote. "I just paid $... for this software and it says that it works. Why do I have to pay you to get it to work properly?". It's getting harder everyday to explain this one.
I can't see any good in taking software/ideas or whatever, bottling it up and storing it in the cellar. Drink it. Share it. Lets others appreciate it. Damn it.
There's a lot more money available in the IT industry, in fact probably in every industry, in supplying services and not materials.
You go into MacDonalds and order a Cheese Burger. You pay 95c for the smiling face, the curtious nature and leave with your free hamburger
I know I'd be a lot more forgiving later if I found that the pickle had been left out and had to go and ask why this had happened.
Anyway, that's my rant for the day, so far
Time to help a client. Does this error seem familiar to anyone.
"This application uses CTL3D32.DLL, which is not the correct version. This version of CTL3D32.DLL is designed only for Windows NT systems."

My friend has/is developing a system and tools for creating a p2p search network. This seems like one way to interconnect searches and information as it becomes more interspersed thoughout the know universe. Have a look at Neurogrid
Looks like AOL, once again, takes the road to a brick wall. They're not going to get anymore people using their IM client by locking people out.
On another thought. How about finding a prime that when converted creates an exact duplicate of the AIM executable. Just like that DECSS prime that was mentioned earlier. Surely this would be legal?
Yikes and we're mean't to trust them with some of our root domain servers?
Won't be long before they start accepting changes to domains that aren't even held on their servers and then propagate that out to the other servers, ignoring the duplications.
How long till this?
Next they'll be trying to tax the air we breathe.
But hey I suppose they'd have a point. I mean after all there are costs involved in polluting the atmosphere and for the moment we freely breathe it.;-)
The guy you talk about probably doesn't have a family and probably never will because he's too worried about the taxes he'll have to pay for having a family. And he'll probably be breaking a law by having a child who produces a thesis sometime in the near future that has already been scheduled for inclusion into the ContentVille Database.
New Zealand has some interesting laws passing through in the next two years. Fancy settling in New Zealand. Houses in the South are still available around 40 thou. You like the cold right?
Unfortunately it's only Windoze but then Linux does have other tools although it would be nice to have the same tool/GUI on both platforms, anyone? Anyway Naviscope allows you to setup ad blocking and filter Javascript/ActiveX and cookies selectively by site/domain and within sites and it has a default for all sites not mentioned. On top of that it also does prefetching of links on pages, good if your using a flat rate connection, and can look for specific keywords for prefetching like "next" or "more" or "continue". I've found it very useful for the machine in the lounge which is used as a TV/Media/Games machine and yes it has both Linux and Windoze installed. Windoze gets used by vistors and girlfriend who are too used to Windoze
What you mean like what if you run Windoze and some little hacker manages to get access to your special "My Documents" folder and grab the specification. Well bad luck I'd say they've got you there. May as well give up now and get Linux now. ;-)
I hope there's some form of interaction required to initiate a print, otherwise you could end up with a TV/Settop box that spews out Advertising rubbish all over the floor for you or your kids to collect when you get home. I wouldn't want my kids, if I had any, to get home and find a nude portrait of some women/man on the floor from some kind sole spamming me. Here hoping they consider this.

All I can say is "Go Nature".
Can't see a problem here for the community.
It just means that when we move forward they have to recode and diff to keep up. Tough.

After quickly scanning through the downloads on the following site, I believe that they may be examples of prior art.
Prior Art?Pity there's no bounty for this at Bounty Quest yet.
Asked ASUS. Nup!
Searched the net. Nup!
Tried the BIOS upgrades. Nup!
Search the net again. NUP!
Bugger!
Maybe they have taken the initial beta's of Mozilla? ;-) Stupid...

Good thing too.

Your DNS is our DNS!

I'm looking at tranferring too.
Just make sure you understand the ramifications Ouch!

Now lets see what's the last program I used to get myself an MP3 of the almost legal variety?
Ummm. It would have been Gozilla.
Oh hang on. No it wasn't. Damn I used Internet Exploder 5.0..whatever and it's stupid FTP view.
Oh my gawd! Does this mean that Microsoft is liable for me using their ftp program to downloaded almost legal MP3's?
There could be a few problems here and everywhere.
Looks like it's time that Napster added tunneling protocols or PGP encryption to their streams.
I hope there's some form of interaction required to initiate a print, otherwise you could end up with a TV/Settop box that spews out Advertising rubbish all over the floor for you or your kids to collect when you get home.

Here hoping they consider this.
