If your teacher said what was your excuse this time for late homework, you say "blame your door right there, it is the cause of my memory loss."

Submission + - Hackers a Credible Threat to Dams? (internationalrivers.org) 1
rhinokitty writes: International Rivers, an anti-dam organization that has been fighting big hydro developtment since 1985, provides testimony from three campaigners about the feasibility of dams being decommissioned by "hackers."
"I have never heard of a dam being attacked by a computer hacker and find the whole concept quite intriguing. How do you send a computer virus to attack a huge chunk of concrete on a river?" Aviva Imhof, Interim Executive Director
Outlook not so good?

Submission + - Assange police reports leaked on to the internet (nzherald.co.nz)
An anonymous reader writes: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is getting a dose of his own medicine, with details of the confidential Swedish police pre-trial investigation continuing to be leaked on the internet.
The latest leak is a 100-page fax between Assange's Swedish and British lawyers that was posted to a website on January 27 by an unknown person.
Although Swedish chief prosecutor Eva Finne decided that there was no rape case to answer for Assange and rescinded the warrant for his arrest, the documents show that the police continued to investigate the WikiLeaks founder and interviewed witnesses for months.

Submission + - AT&T Sued for Systematic iPhone Overbilling
Hugh Pickens writes writes: UPI reports that AT&T is facing a lawsuit that says AT&T routinely bills for 7 percent to 14 percent more data transactions than normally takes place that could blossom into a costly class-action case. Court papers claim that attorneys set up a test account for an iPhone, then closed all of its apps and left the device unused for 10 days. AT&T still billed the account for 2,292 KB of usage. "A significant portion of the data revenues were inflated by AT&T's rigged billing system for data transactions," say court papers filed on behalf of AT&T customer Patrick Hendricks. "This is like the rigged gas pump charging you when you never even pulled your car into the station." Attorneys say they would file to have the case moved to class-action status, which makes the outcome relevant to all of AT&T's iPhone accounts.

Isn't passing a law that makes something originally outside the law to remain outside the law rather oxymoronic?
Hmm, is it? I vaguely recall a set of laws that certain things shall remain outside the law to be rather highly thought of somewhere...
"Congress shall make no law" sound familiar?
"Congress shall make no law" is too vague. explain more what you mean by that..?

Why do people always say desk space is the most important thing? Can you really not get a bigger desk? Mine's not even that freaking big but it's got a nice little shelf on top which is PLENTY big enough for my 19" CRT.
If desk space is the ONLY thing marrying everyone to LCDs, then you really need to rethink things.
I don't want CRT because of my eyes and low chance of getting killed by laser in accidental situation. SO in order to maximizing my chance of survival I will rather go with LCD.
