I agree. Real-time strategy games are more possible on both the DS and Wii due to their controller's being able to so easily emulate the functions of a mouse. The lack of a mouse-like device I think is something that really holds back consoles from the RTS genre.
World of Warcraft seems to generate the hardcore gamers in the age range they say, if only based on the sheer amount of time I've seen some players spend leveling up, gaining new talents, rare items etc.
Same here. Unfortunately, at the moment it's not a myth that most Linux installs are done by 'the local geek' with promises of no more viruses.
Even the ISO downloading and burning can be tricky for some. Many times I've heard of the people burning the ISO file as a file rather than an image. Hopefully, free (Ubuntu's ShipIt) or cheap shipping can help new users over this.
The technology behind web feeds such as RSS and Atom (if you can call an XML file a 'technology') is perfectly safe, it is merely the content of the feed itself which can cause problems.
No one can stop a malicious user from setting up their own feed containing dangerous feeds. However, for existing blogs and weblogs, the validation methods to prevent the input of code and script into comment fields has been around and known about for several years.
This doesn't seem to be the case here. The police didn't break any laws, they may have been somewhat rude, but that's subject to interpretation.
I did imply the police force were comitting illegal acts. However, when a notice is displayed regarding the fact they were being recorded, the police certainly have no right to arrest him on pending charges of 'wiretapping'.
What is the proper etiquette to talk to the family of a man who commits muggings at gunpoint?
Yes, I accept that a stolen gun was found and as such the investigation was certainly of a very serious nature. However, your point puts forward the argument that the enitre family should be badly treated due to the acts of one member. This I do not agree with.
Your final point, "...they had every reason to investigate. I'd rather live with cops who are rude but obey the law than let muggers with stolen guns run free." makes perfect sense, and of course the obstruction of such an investigation should not be delayed, which futher questions why this additional charge was put into place. To me, it seems like a self-inflicted waste of police time.
I never owned a NES, but definatly a SNES, and it was amazing. I really cherished that console and honestly, many of the games on it have never been beaten in my opinion. Yoshi's Island, the original Super Mario World, to name a few.
I even play a lot of Nintendo's re-makes for the Gameboy on my DS now.
Gannon's cameras recorded both audio and video, and a sticker on the side of his Morgan Street home warned that persons on the premises were subject to being recorded.
Going to jail, for wanted to have a secure home.
There seem to have been a lot of recent news articles focusing upon cases in which law enforcement agencies have gone completely overboard. I do not want to be protected by an agency in which those who run it take advantage of their authorative positions, which is what appears to be being the case.
I have to agree with Gates here - please shoot me later.
Unless Internet Access is secured for the $100 laptop project is almost everywhere it is to be used then learning potential is highly restricted. The other alternative is having a school content server, that could contain a small section of useful information students could access from their laptops via the Zero-Config wireless.
Apologies for that post. It was terrible I have to admit. It should have read 'patent', and why I explained what a double-click was to reader's of Slashdot is a mystery...
A good suggestion. I heard, not from the most reliable source, that Microsoft tried to copyright the double click as 'a method by which to use a pointing device to activate a user interface component via the tapping of a button two times by the user' or something similar.
Computer literacy as a term in itself is ridiculous. Your washing machine has a computer in it. Does that mean if you can set a spin cycle correctly you are somewhat 'computer literate'?
It's security, thus you must make the most important points (i.e. those of greatest risk) the most prominent in any report and make them easy to understand. It'd recommend first bullet-pointing each security aspect in categories such as severe, medium and minor issues.
After this categorisation, it would be wise to describe each point in more detail in an after section using non-technical language, but making it obvious what the implications of ignoring these security issues could be. This should again, be priotised on the most major of these points.
If a manager is unable to understand a point or worse misunderstands, he may consider it trivial. And obviously, this could be disasterous over the long-term.
"does the armies interest stem from creating an army of spidermen?"
The military and intelligence applications for robots like these could be immense. No doubt there would be a huge invasion of privacy outrage if people knew these robots were being used for spying of some sorts.

Your post is interesting too; you used the contraction for IT IS instead of a possessive pronoun like ITS. I don't love that shit, though.
Well said

No.
KDE is going to run natively in Windows, it will be just like any other Windows application.
Agreed. A society of any type can not survive alone on the ideals of perfection...
... unless they are a cybernetically enhanced race of super-humanoid life forms from a fictional universe!!! Go Borg!
Thanks.

I must try this 'Linuz' OS sometime. :P

Now all they need is a handle to make it portable. :P

Does that mean if I put work on it, and leave it in the disc drive for a while, it would come out complete?
If so, I need some of this!

You mean you haven't heard of Microsoft Cleaner?
It's currently only compatible Microsoft Windows Washing Edition.

It's a lazy coding practice really.

Ingenius application of the technology there.
