I think this "easy way to break into hotmail accounts" is just a collection of websites that offer ringtones or porn or something stupid like that, if only you enter your Hotmail address and password. They can then use that Hotmail/MSN account for spamming MSN contacts, setting autoreplies to spam, or similar stuff.
I doubt it will be complete: there will always be a market for the "real thing", which might become an expensive luxury item. But don't think that means the producers will spend a penny more on producing it than they'll need to.
Well, my point is: if it weren't for those farms, most of the farm animals wouldn't even exist.
The problem is that their lives are mostly not very nice, and too short. I doubt that will improve when/if the vat-grown clonemeat takes over the market.
I think the quality of life of those farm animals is more important than their numbers, but then again, most people just want a cheap steak on their plates.
The vat-grown clonemeat would also need nourishment, and there wouldn't be a digestive system to digest normal food, so the food would still need to be grown, plus processed in a special food processing plant. OTOH, it's possible that the processing plant would also be able to use stuff that we're discarding nowadays.
But if it gets cheaper, expect many farm animals to go extinct in many areas, being replaced by the vat-grown clonemeat. What would PETA think about that?
Now, I didn't really know Mininova before this. I had heard of it, but that's about it.
I did visit the site just now, and I saw lots of items about music that I'd never heard of.
Maybe it can become a good site to find new music from non-RIAA signed artists, who generally don't have much of a marketing/distribution platform? RIAA, meet foot, gun.
Yes there is. Once you can find out what specific people are voting, you can threaten them to vote for your candidate, "or else", and know exactly who gets to have an "unfortunate accident".
There are those that believe that it is human destiny to bring salvation to the aliens, and those who believe in multiple incarnations,' says Paul Davies, a theoretical physicist. 'The multiple incarnations is a heresy in Catholicism.'
Of course, the aliens are witches and heretics, and need to be purged from the galaxy in great crusades.
"worse than Microsoft AIDS" (a hypothetical product with the combined potential of causing sever harm to both your computer and your own personal well-being).
It's not hypothetical, it's just that they release it under pseudonyms.
Exactly. But they say it qualifies for it, and if you're going to dispute their statement, you'll have to do so in court, which is expensive for you, but not for them.
It isn't reasonable to say that just because she checked a box somewhere agreeing to accept marketing communications from a company that she should expect those communications to take the form of a simulated stalking.
More likely, the box was pre-checked, and non-nerds generally don't bother to uncheck pre-checked checkboxes in web forms.
This page (Dutch) has a link to the PDF (bottom of the article) of the Dutch translation of the first chapter. (I would have linked to an English translation, but I am not aware of any preview releases.)
I read the first chapter, and found it pretty cool, but also awkward to read it in Dutch, since the characters (in ch. 1) are all Britons or Americans.
Same here. I upgraded mine from 0.5 to 1.5 GiB RAM (no point in upgrading to 1 GiB, as it's just as much work). Had to take the entire thing apart, but I got it back together again. I didn't feel like using the SSD for swap.
I'm running Xubuntu (I mostly use the terminal, and I didn't want one of those "heavy" desktop environments).
It seems the era of SCCs has come to an end, at least until the ARM "smartbook" SCCs start showing up.

Exactly. The people who don't get this should go back to Digg.

How long until they get it to factor huge numbers?

We are very tasty snacks! Here, have our DNA, and grow some appetizers for the long journey!
Yes there is. Once you can find out what specific people are voting, you can threaten them to vote for your candidate, "or else", and know exactly who gets to have an "unfortunate accident".
We should have that here.
So, how do you rename a folder?
If you make a million bucks in a coffee break, you can afford to have a long coffee break :-)

Except in the Bad SciFi Plot, they have a plan ...

Hey, at least they were disposing of their bombs properly. In Afghanistan they litter them along the side of the road! Buncha barbarians...

I wasn't disputing that.
I mean, she probably didn't uncheck the box. How often do you see a pre-checked checkbox on a paper form? Right, on those junk mail order forms:
[x] YES! Send me my FREE gift with my order*!

It reminds me of Zima Blue.
(I don't have my copy here, so I can't point you to the specific story, but most of the stories in the book are good.)
It also reminds me of Anathem.
I used to believe it too, in 1998. Not so much anymore soon after. Most people still fall for it, so MS just keeps pumping out the empty promises.
You could try placing it in a Bag of Holding ;-)

Anyway, if you're interested, have a look at it.
