To be fair I'm sure the SMS is compressed to about 70bytes, maybe less. Wait... that doesn't help at all.
All cellphone talks don't matter it takes a few seconds to show that they are all criminals.
Wireless internet for your home or laptop w/e costs 30$ a month with something like 5G/mo. Allows you to talk to people, voice and video. Lets you browse the web, send msgs, dl ringtones so on so on. Of course you are just charged for the data. If you want to change providers you might get hooked for a month (often not)
Cellphone bills cost something like 90$/mo w/ a data plan. You can do everything you can do w/ wireless internet and nothing more, you are billed separately for most of it.
I'll list some things on my cellphone bill
Item: Cellphone - wISP
Voice call: 0.10~0.30c/min - 0.0026c/min (30$ *.433MB/min / 5GB)
*Long distance calls cost more on cellphones, not on the internet.
Text msg: 0.20c/msg - 0.002c (30$ * 70bytes / 5GB)
*I believe telus offers unlimited sms for 15$/month
Call waiting: $3/mo - nothing
Conference calling: ??? - nothing
Call Display: $3/mo - nothing
E-mail: ??? - nothing
Everything else: depends on how much data you use but not being on a cell carrier will probably quarter the price.
The whole cellphone empire is clinging onto survival based on technology that is long since dead. They are more impressive at clinging to survival than the RIAA, MPAA and better at controlling the law than ISPs. Something is clearly broken when you could get a similar service for 1/3~1/4 the price were it not for uncompetitive practices and oligopolies.
Well that was stupid. Buying a new drive every 3years, doubling in size each time would have been cheaper and you'd have had no file loss. But then I never understood CDs/DVDs... I think total I've bothered with a 100spindle of CDs and a 20spindle of DVDs (between my family and friends)
I never understood why a condom brand would want to associate itself with the trojans.
Buy our brand. When you have sex the girl won't even notice you infiltrating, then once inside all your little soldiers will pop out and reek havok. Then you can tell her, 'Haha, Suprise!'
Good habit since a lot of key-loggers are shooting for the low hanging fruit. Though I do know some take this into account. The text you are typing IS in your ram in plain-text. The starred out pws are little more than a very lame font. Many viri read the ram directly rather than stealing key-presses. Personally I find this a less complicated way to write key-loggers than reading through a know bunch of meaningless shit.
I went through their board, Investors and management and their histories. There are no meaningful attachments to Microsoft. In fact it was a bit surprising seeing a company on computer security where no-one came from Microsoft. So I am quite certain the GP was BSing.
I have said the word God in past and used it as a metaphor for the universe, infact physicists today commonly do so. But it doesn't mean I am remotely religious.
"The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this."
That seems a little more specific. The topic being his religious views rather than what he refers to as metaphor.
Firefox installed onto a USB stick. Have a single password for everything. If you lose the USB stick you can change passwords quick enough. It is convenient in that you only have to remember one thing. It is secure against key-loggers on infected computers. And you can probably make the usb stick effectively read-only protecting the stick itself. And the whole thing costs like a dollar.
Why must people keep saying Einstein a Catholic? (they do in the clip)
Do they know something that Einstein didn't? I mean he did repeatedly deny his religiousness. Has proof come out that he was high at the time or something?
To anyone that has read up on norse creationism. It is WAY more badass than this 7day crap. Seriously, giant cows licking ice, hermaphrodite giants. bone mountains.
In engineering and science. Experiments are never failures if we learn something. And the oops would be 7000ppl. Learning these things is good. Also its fucking cool! Domed cities? How is that not awesome. I should be revoking all of the naysayers nerd licenses.
Hmmm... Looking at the html/. does not support a CSS for the visually impaired. Which is really quite a shame since it would take maybe a few hours to greatly improve the layout for the blind. I would hope that this would get fixed but people have been whining about changes for/. for years (bugs in/code and the like). And that really is unfortunate.
I imagine that reading the news isn't too bad. Nor would be going through the comments./. does have hot-keys which I imagine are helpful. But that is because you have a plan on what you are doing. What would be time consuming and difficult would be finding WHAT to do. We sift through a lot of crap comments to get to good ones, I would probably browse at +4 if I were blind. But I think that unless the guy is a scripter or particularly good at checking his comments you won't get a reply back. Going through a bunch of no replies each day has to be annoying as hell. I don't always check and it takes me 1second rather than 1minute.
I have my bookmarks toolbar filled with links (hide the text and only show icons) of all of my commonly visited sites. That combined with anything rare I want to return to being bookmarked by hitting the star. I not only don't need bookmarks but I've hidden the whole menu bar (It is now shown as a single icon to the left of the go back button). Also the awesome bar doesn't slow anything down, can be shut off and if you simply ignore it it won't react differently than the old bar.
Holy crap that is poorly written. That quote has more holes in than that poor fish in the barrel i keep hearing about. Seriously, if we tried to implement what it suggest we would destroy the economy instantaneously.
Some low hanging fruit: Cameras, mp3 players, tvs? contraband since not all people can equally enjoy them due to their disabilities.
Hell I could argue that a deaf, blind, mute, cripple in constant pain can't enjoy life at all. And depressed people are unable to find enjoyment. On that basis no products can be enjoyed fully with certain disabilities. Therefore all products would be banned by the ADA. Or of course there will be no places of public accommodation.
BTW, this is what happens when laws are birthed from politicians rather than lawyers. Lawyers might be asinine on occasion but they likely wouldn't make such a huge fucking mess writing laws.
He may have actually meant the word rather than the political sentiment. Or have politics so completely corrupted the meanings of the words associated with it.
A single redirect the first time you click on a site can't be that bad. I agree of course it is slower than fucking with DNS. But fucking with DNS has its own dangers. Along the lines of helping break net neutrality. I realize my ISPs could currently fuck with me using automatic redirection anyways but this way would allow them to be sneakier. And to a non-techy 'making requests faster' seems far less insidious than redirection. On top of that DNS was NOT designed for this. I'm sure there are a plethora of ways this could break.
Have it fallback to icann for unknown addresses? Not that I think it is a very useful idea. I think a 2nd net could be valuable but DNS isn't really the most worrisome issue in regards to net freedom.
I imagine they aren't 100% sold by the virgin idea and are doing it for some ideal. So yeah they are probably terrified.
Even if you assumed they were 100% ok with blowing up. They would be afraid of getting caught since that'd ruin their martydom... am I missing something?
In Hamilton, ON the cities around us don't have any mental institutions since for some reason hamilton decided we wanted all the mental institutions in the region. When the nearby cities can't send the mentally handicapped here to our institutions they have been caught a bunch of times now simply putting undesirables on buses to Hamilton. Sure they eventually drift back the their respective cities but it means we have something like triple the amount of crazy people we would normally have.
BTW, the industry here is steel and most of the city was built when lead paint and pipes were in, lead solder still being common. It isn't rare to see more than 3 clearly crazy people on a single bus downtown.
Mind you, they do have their charm. Hamiltonian's begin to recognize them by traits and we all have favorites, they are sort of like pokemon. My favorite is of course dancingman...
Dancingman - A physical type crazyperson. Latin dances wherever he goes, even if it is many miles away. He is often seen shirtless proudly baring his hairy chest with white pants on. He is really fit from the dancing but sadly I'm not sure how he'll fare with the coming winter. Maybe he'll get a coat.
My dad's favorite is couponman, he shops with something like 10000 coupons and makes lines wherever he shops. Also, he looks EXACTLY like David Suzuki, I thought it was him the first time I saw him. He also enjoys a good muttering.

I thought it was "Capitalism in action" but that works too.
I don't know him. Sounds german, I hope it isn't just a flind and they are happy together.

It involves people joining together which is clearly socialist.
