I don't mind what the default colour is - I can always change that. But what I care about is my system getting screwed after performing version upgrades... Properly destroyed once and a major slow-down since going to Karmic...
1.9 The content management technology required to be implemented in receivers under the BBC's proposals would permit unrestricted recordings of HD content onto digital video recorders (DVRs) but would enable broadcasters to control the copying of this content onto other devices and its distribution over the internet. The HD content would only be accessible on other consumer devices which support the same content management technologies as those used in HD receivers.
Call me horribly naive, but what does it really matter if Google knows something or even loads about my online life? It'll eventually know something about billions of people. I'm sure I'm not that interesting.
How about using a very low frequency sound, say 1 Hz? Or a Square wave with a period that is the same length (or greater) as the clip in question? Maybe that way you could avoid the re-encoding / aliasing issues.
I always wondered why iTunes doesn't recognise emulated cd burners, for example like Nero's ImageDrive. That would be one of the coolest way of getting around the DRM crap imo.
You ever tried to write 5318008 or 71077345 on a computer and then turn the monitor upside-down? Calculators are not - and will never be - obsolete and there, gentlemen, I rest my case.
my personal pet peeve on this plane is not being able to search across all accounts
I could be wrong, but I think you can search all accounts if you search using Local Folders...
What's also cool is that you can use persistent, or saved, searches which appear under your list of accounts. So, if for example you tend to tag messages a lot you can save searches which look for a particular tag, hit the icon and up pop all those messages.
In the UK Tiscali have been 'unintentionally' blocking iTunes traffic during peak periods for some time now. This, again, on 'Unlimited' MAX ADSL connections where p2p regularly slows to a crawl...
Despite having acknowledged the problem recently (they said they're working on it - try turning off your traffic shaping???) they initially ignored it, deleting support forum posts wholesale.
It's quite possible there was either water or crud in the fuel, especially since the aircraft almost certainly took on fuel in China, and China seems to have had problems of late with products being adulterated in some form...
Which would be most ironic since the PM was heading out to China (from Heathrow) for trade talks at that very hour...
Hang on - isn't that a wee bit paranoid? I can't say that I really give a shit about CCTV or the rest of it... I don't get into fights, vandalise property, commit terrorist acts, deal drugs, pimp or any of that and so far I haven't had a rap on the door. When TFA says that the UK is one of 'the most spied upon nation[s] in Western Europe' what difference does it really make to me?
And just as a little aside to this, your comment made me look back at/. posts from the day. One post from this discussion stands out for me...
I sympathise with your desire for revenge. But please try to bear in mind in the days and weeks to come that revenge against a large group of people will hurt many innocent people. Those responsible for this attack are unspeakably evil individuals, but don't get so caught up in your desire to punish them that you end up hurting yet more innocent people - for example the civilians of another country. God forbid this tragedy should get any worse; that's what will happen if the US seeks revenge against an easy national target such as Palestine or Afghanistan rather than hunting down the individuals responsible for this awful attack. Please don't add your voice to those calling out for blood. Enough blood has been spilled already. Let us find and punish the individuals responsible, but let us not make an easy scapegoat out of innocent civilians, whatever their nationality or religion.

Just... look out of the window
How many football pitches is that?

Okay, I'm pretty much a Linux newbie, but installing abrowser fucked my system.

So, the director of that trailer says that "assembling it only took a weekend and a couple of weeknights"
Does he mean that a pair of armour-clad scottish midgets were his assistants?
Take my mother-in-law... please.
Hey, maybe www.mildenhill.com is worth a roll of the dice too :)

Big explosion though
A video ... A great success! Huzzah!

I'm seeing more people using Usenet atm... Maybe even Freenet will take off properly one day.

Freedom is just an illusion (man).
A mass debate? Only if the pros are really good.

You have far-sighted vision. Who could imagine 'such tools', being able to manipulate sound in this way?
And anyway, who cares?
The other thing everyone will search
Only problem I had was on one PC. Updating DirectX and the soundcard drivers seemed to do the trick...
Man, they love that 'digital tunnel set extension'
