Go to the moon with Prelim equipment that wheels out a return a little faster than a full base. Come on, Can't we just build some kind of goddurn Steel Box and plunk it down? Yea, it would have no air, but you could stick some Spy Eye stuff in it to look for "Tuurrists". Can't we drill that out for under say $100 Million?
Ex-Soviets who are itching to get back into The Game of Everything, make a deal with the Afghanis, to trade oh, ONE TRILLION DOLLARS in return for fun toys??
I have seen some weird regional hybrid books with "selected" numbers. I can live with four complete phonebooks. Those "Selected" thingies are distracting.
But weren't the Telcos whining about 5 years ago "it's copyrighted"?
I think that is one of the most slippery diagnoses because I think it has real Gattaca abuse potential.
Isn't the other article whining about how Dem Tubernets makes ya dumb? Watch those folks pass the urine test, then call "one of them" to fix their "Internet is broken" problem.
I'd rather that constellation just get reclassed more like "Low Self Monitor" like one set of consultants I heard about in college described. Those same people are your Anti-Groupthink safety valve. If they don't get shouted down, you'll call them fools for 330 days of the year until they save you 330 million + 10ish lives when your Space Shuttle has broken O rings.

"Your honor, I'd like to call Douglas Hofstadter to the stand." Judge: "Why is he relevant?" "He's an expert witness on Self-Referential paradoxes."...
Douglas starts thinking: "... Hm. If someone starts recording a site, they don't yet know if a police officer is going to enter that site for an incident that has not yet happened. Therefore are we getting into unmanned camera law?"
We know well enough "CongressCritter X voted for Bill Y".
What seems to be tough to fix is the lobbying lockdown. "If you don't support us in the War Against Z, we'll sink any other bill you ever submit for a vote."
As long as an Article is properly written, I don't mind if one lead case example of a flaw is used to get people's notice. "Flaw allows people to delete Facebook friends" will wake up more people than "missing parameter bug found in certain browsers".
I'm right on that borderline of a modestly aware of these issues, so when one surfaces that's "important to the masses" I like having a tagline in my mind to explain it with. I admit I ignore a lot of Linux kernel reports etc. My attitude to Linux is "it sorta is what it sorta is". The standards of my knowledge are far lower than Windows where I have to support other folks.
I don't believe guys like Tim ARE missing these points! Why? Because that requires me to believe that what they post is their belief, their whole belief, and nothing but their belief!
I don't believe that anymore!
I believe they are posting *strategic* comments like a cosmic Go game. "Put a dot there to make a presence in That-Space of conception."
Try spending a day surfing with the axiom that the authors of these blogs believe *none* of what they post, but do it for any of 10 rewards - traffic, controversy, "make aggressive moves and let the users yell, until they are tired and miss one..."
I am sorry I wasn't clear in places. I was thinking most of all of UI features that are vetted safe but "hard-as-in-Barbie's-opinion-on-math".
Known malware would be in a much more severe category.
But there used to be fun in installing Beta stuff. Google Mail aside, the definition of Beta was that it had tasty new flavors, but watch out for the Jalapeno!
However the #1 thing that an Advanced mode would do is show a visible file type and location. I can't count the number of processes I use that involve transforming data among file types, then filing it (at least sorta properly).

Compromise for you -

Can I float a theory?

Def. the Bush Admin. Bush tried hard to torpedo the Constitution.
SCO was damn expensive, but the outcome was only delayed, not in doubt.
I wanna see a printer join slashdot!
This is a big mess indeed because you can't live on $8/hr in many areas.
But too, we can live with $50 more for an i-something, but how about super-commodities like socks?
"There goes your ability to focus"? I think there was an article about that ...

It's not though.

I'd LIKE a list in a parseable(sp?) format.
I hope so.

Actually, no!
If done *properly* with by someone with visionary capital, a really decked out Restaurant with future tech would be 2025-Now.
But no, we'll get some twerp with a Meijer background who would want to make it kitschy.

They took away Simon. Wasn't he the whole point of the show?
Don't worry, at least I got your joke.
Though considering the hysterical brands of spelling here, this is a funny article.
Dunno where you're from. I was required to give name and SS # signing up for a line yesterday.
Hey, the original users got to keep their credentials - all that happened was the hacker got a spare set! (Until the password was changed...)
I almost let this slide until you put the other half of the pun in capitals!
There is lots of tasty competition producing NSFW "Discreet Graphics" that Sucks!

I tried it out and Protected/Froze/Locked the tab and the exploit ran.

I dunno, Maybe.
Great answer.

I completely don't understand your statement. Credit cards charge all the way up to 21% and more!
