I don't know how many people I've given cancer to with my X-ray specs.
...to faking video footage a la The Running Man.
...they are discovering that people who played games really aren't anti-social. They would much rather have fun with their family and friends rather than be locked in a room by themselves. You'd think that LAN parties would have been a hint.
Comedy Central took Futurama away from Adult Swim who faithfully aired it for years in syndication. Adult Swim fans were the sole reason Futurama was revived. Adult Swim doesn't seem to get one bit of gratitude from Comedy Central or Fox. I love Futurama, but I'm not going to turn my back on Adult Swim and reward Comedy Central by watching it anymore. If I get withdrawals, I'll just Netflix it.
Yes, the CIPA is what I'm referring to in regard to e-rate. Naturally, an entity wouldn't be subject to it if it wasn't applying for money. Like most schools, as you pointed out, ours does.
I hadn't realized that about the COPA. Thanks for the tip. This doesn't mean that someone won't try again though.
And I thought e-rate was bad. At least this kind of filtering in the U.S. is only mandated in the elementary schools and public libraries... so far.
That's one way of looking at it.

If the country changes, then it is not the country that gave him any opportunity.
Industrialist Carnegie... would have never entertained the idea of moving factories to China for cheap labor.
If he was a smart businessman, he would have taken his business to the place that made the most sense. At the time, it was America.
Raising corporat taxes doesn't affect the consumer as badly as you believe. Yes some prices get raised, but increased taxation also leads to more cuts internally like plastic desks instead of mahogany, fewer free trips to Vegas, snd so on.
And you know this from... running a large corporation? I've never seen the internal operations of a large corporation first hand, so I'll have to take your word. I would think that office supplies are actually on the bottom of the list for cuts. When this economic crisis hit, I didn't hear a lot about companies selling their desks. I heard about job losses. Why would it be any different for a tax increase?
- If California's standard of living drops, then wages will drop, and eventually the factories will move back here because WE will be the cheaper labor than the Chinese.
Eventually they will come back? Why wait? Just cut to the chase and make it more enticing for businesses to operate in California from the get go?
Would someone at Google please post this for syousef? After all, I'm using Chrome so they are reading this and have all of that information on hand, right?
Actually it's more like I don't want them collecting data on me that they sell later for money without my express permission.
Fair enough. Do you avoid security cameras in stores as well?
So then you would be perfectly fine with your bank, for example, having you do transactions over unencrypted connections? I mean the internet is a public place, right?
If my bank required me to do that, then no, I would not be fine with it. I don't nail my deposits to the side of their building either. And I don't expect any sort of implied privacy when surfing the internet. If I want to do anything private, I'll keep as many hands and eyes off it as possible.
I'm not sure I buy into "usage tracking is an invasion of privacy" mantra. It seems to me this is a modern day "taking your photograph will steal your soul" sort of superstition. Is the internet not a public place? I'm not sure what kind of privacy people expect while using it.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
