Stemming or lemmatisation are only irrelevant to the fact that I was making a JOKE. Cat* will match all sorts of words that have nothing to do with cats.
I actually had a customer requesting wildcard search, and used "cat* for cat(s) as an example.
My company sells software packages where the license alone costs you a million or more. Installation can take from 2-3 hours to a day, and fully configuring it can take anywhere from a couple of hours to weeks.... Needless to say, one of the biggest problems we have when people buy it is that they screw up the installation, screw up the configuration, or don't have the manpower or processes in place to properly take advantage of it
You sell software for US$1M and you don't have a Services department??
the realist in me says the FCC is chasing them because commercial radio pushes them to.
The FCC does exist for a good reason. The radio space within the US is something that is owned by the people of the United States. The rules that are in place are to protect the masses from having that resource rendered unusuable to them. Citizens' Band ("CB") was established so that individuals could express whatever they wanted on their spectrum.
The commercial radio stations that play music we don't like, and shove commercials down the ears of listeners, AND screw payola out of artists... also do pay their licensing fees to the people of the United States.
What you let your government spend the money on is another matter entirely.
If you are not using a laptop, it's super easy to defang ALL the modal keys from your keyboard by popping them out with a screwdriver or tough pen... I do it all the time:
cAPS lOCK
Scroll lock (will screw users up in Excel; you can't navigate cells)
Insert (my least favorite key of ALL TIME; the only key that destroys work in Word, notepad et al.)
NumLock (if your BIOS/OS supports setting it the way you want automatically. If not: a pen sufficies to set/reset numlock when you need to toggle it)
This is why I dropped the "Discover Card" long ago when I was in university. I had a crooked contract with a gym, Discover wouldn't go to bat for me so I dropped them forever.
I had a much better experience with Visa, in the same time period: I bought a ticket for an airline that closed its doors before my flight took off. Visa went to the bankruptcy trustee, collected what they could and refunded me 100% of the purchase.

Erm, no, he certainly meant Links.

I would die without my daily Q-tip double eargasm.

like "cat*" to get cat AND cats!
That's a bad metaphor, not a bad analogy.

From now on I shall call slashdot "S to the D to the org".
Was his name John Smith?
All that, /and/ reversi!
But not in Nebraska....
Han kommer fra Norge.
I left.
And I'm not going back until I see things better back home, or until everywhere else I could be just happens to be worse:-(
WHAT YOU SAY!!
Wow, I actually tried that on OS X.
It rebooted, which surprised me because I'm a sudoer but not a super-user around here.
By the way: Firefox took care of my private data as usual.
You just assigned Trademark Office to Patent Office.
I think you meant to conclude that Patent Office == Trademark Office.
Now we leave it as an exercise to the reader to check my grammar and apostrophes.
Phase I drugs trials are given to healthy human subjects. They shouldn't have any viruses in their blood.
Sorry, I meant "these other guys, for instance".
My point is that it is ridiculous to suggest it's not feasible to bomb planes in a similar manner.

These guys actually blew up the bathroom in a plane with a cut down bomb for testing. After blowing up a movie theater seat.

The DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) is where Americans queue up to get their driving licenses renewed.
Granted. Start any time.
