very true, I think the thing is that for a lot of the people that I reconnected with on facebook are people that would otherwise not have an online presence at all, sure any of them could find me online, but the prolly would never have looked

Some people like the "Running Man" upgrade.

From what I've seen, MMS messages makes AT&T's network cry.

No. That is not profiling.

Profiling is making the decision to select for screening based upon physical characteristics of the traveler, such as the color of their skin, or their dress.

This simply requires that all persons holding travel documents from certain countries be screened. There's nothing to do with race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or any of that crap.

Some of the Cortex ones support 754, but not 754r. It's optional component, however.

You use different words but the problem is still the same. I'll speak in generic terms.

What happens when the system is compromised and someone else can identify as me? How do I again secure my identity? What do I change? How do I change it?

Obviously if you don't want the government to brand you a potential evildoer, you shouldn't enlist to defend it.

There's also the mobile realm, where I don't think IBM has even stepped foot in. Not adopting IEEE 754r at this time seems like the right thing to do.

They are going to end up with bacon that doesn't die! And that would be a sin against humanity!

Seriously, I think the $60 Billion is still extremely low. At $20,000 per violation, that means only 3,000,000 violations, which I think is very light for the class of 300,000+ songs that are in the Payment Pending list. That is only estimating that 10 copies of each song were sold this way. The real numbers exist. They can find out EXACTLY how many copies of EACH unauthorized song were sold as all of that is accounted for each individual CD/Album/MP3 from the CRIA members. If we use the REAL number of songs and counts of infringement. I think we are talking easily more than 50 million violations here, not 3 million (which is only 10 sales per song, and we ALL know that a production run of CD's will be in the thousands each, and each COPY is a violation, not just each SALE, even broken CD's at the manufacturing site are unauthorized copies that took place (you know all that breakage cost part that they put into the contracts), they still count in terms of unauthorized/pirate copies). And remember, it is per song, so an album may have 15+ individual infringements in it, not a single infringement for the entire album.

I always thought the worst aspect of the manpage system was that the examples for usage were at the bottom in most. How many times have you pulled up a command for a quick refresher only to scroll through 20 screens of details to get what you wanted?
