Yeah, AVG had a false positive on friday, several users submitted false positive reports, and the updated virus definitions yesterday fixed the problem. Nothing to see here, move along.
Deal, as long as "money" is defined by "the most common medium of exchange." I'm assuming it will either be gold, food, or anti-virals. All of which I could use if society collapses.
Umm... both CompUSA and Circuit City have gone out of business... Either that means Tiger is really hurting, or it shut them down on purpose so everyone would go to Tiger Direct.
I mean, I can count on one hand (I know I know) the number of times I've actually had porn flash up on my browser when I was not looking for it....in all these years.
The problem with that statement is there have been probably fewer than five times (writing that post being one of them) when you weren't actively looking for porn while using your browser. Plus, the other hand was probably too busy to be counting.
Umm... Florida doesn't have crocodiles. They have alligators. Crocodiles are in Australia. Unless no one told me and Florida is adding crocodiles to their ecosystem.
I could see the court case that argues it has to at least temporarily create some sort of mp3 file on the fly in order to render the TTS, which the publisher/author could argue is the derivative work. That's a tricky situation to sort out.
The problem is Microsoft can just keep windows from supporting file systems that Microsoft can't lay it's monopoly down upon. With the Windows market share, products need to be usable on a windows machine, and if windows won't read ext3 or whatever other file system you want to use, the product is going to be useless to the majority of consumers. Who is going to want a camera that can't upload pictures to windows because it's using a different file system? UDF is better maybe, but both Windows and OsX have problems with it.

What... is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow in flight?
The other side of that education issue, whether the money is going directly to the kids or not, is that the money is being used. If that money is cut from the budget, it's going to put a huge strain on state budgets to make up for it, and if the other states are like mine right now, there is a huge budget crunch. The last thing I want to see is teacher lay offs, adding to unemployment isn't going to help us get out of this recession.
I've had this problem when a USB device was being unresponsive. It would cause the system to slow, and it would hang if I tried to open My Computer with the device connected (that annoying flashlight animation), but disconnecting the device solved the problem. So after an annoying live chat session with hp, they helped me fix it. Try unplugging your USB devices and see if it still slows to a crawl.
A good experiment would be to purchase an MS product, open it, start the installer, read the EULA, don't agree, and then call M$ to give you your money back, because you don't agree with the EULA, and the retailer won't take back an opened box of software.
I don't know... this sounds like a feature to me. AVG should hype this up. On another note, I have AVG, and haven't had this problem yet. Don't know if it's updated itself though.
So... Since this study is published, I can assume that it's wrong... but then, if this study is wrong, it's right... but then... Excuse me while I pass out -- If it weren't for my horse...
So a libertarian shoots trespassers on his first land and asks questions later, whereas a liberal checks if they are lost, ill, or some other socially acceptable reason, and only shoots when they are proved to be aggressors. The libertarian accepts that he will occasionally kill the innocent, the liberal that he will occasionally be to slow and get hurt himself.
But what will the liberal shoot the trespassers with once he has banned all firearms? That liberal is such a hypocrite!

Excellent analogy! I need to write this down.

No, I am Spartacus.

Everyone knows that sex offenders float when hog tied and thrown in water. How much more scientific do you need?
So they weigh the same as a duck?
okay, I'll bite, what is the most worthless?

No matter how they engineer it, someone can possibly scrape their streams
As long as they don't CROSS their streams. That would be bad.

It's time for MegaMaid. Get NASA started on that Spaceball-1 project STAT.
This thread just went from suck to blow.

Actually, the most recent Battlefield 2142 patch does support widescreen natively.
Sounds like a pretty simple idea, I don't know why it hasn't been done before.

I would be very interested to see M$'s response.
Am i the only one that sees the irony that their acronym is "iPAT"?
That seems oddly convenient....
Or you could have one of those toy birds that dips its beak in water press the key for you... but if it breaks, watch out. Where's the any key?

No way, the real Shatner would have written "How can, you kill that, which has, no, life. ,"
But what will the liberal shoot the trespassers with once he has banned all firearms? That liberal is such a hypocrite!
