what if you open the door? Will internet leak out of the room?

I suppose a double door or, more entertainingly, a revolving door, could help with this...

So, I recall one of the main e-ink perks being the "print-like" sharpness. Is this something OLED (or LED, for that matter) can achieve? That for me would be the deal-breaker.

I don't know if it's that this took a year+ to break or if it's just that no one actually sat down to try it until a year or so. I'm not sure how great the overlap of e-book users and coding types is compared to, say, dvd viewers or itunes users and coders. Also could take a guess based on torrent activities - presumably there are lots more torrents of movies, tv series, music, etc. than e-books.

Definitely the way to go - using l33t substitutes in some pattern you've decided also tends to very easily give you the non-alpha uc/lc numeric requirements of most passwords.

Though this doesn't help for when you have reset policies - as you'd have to remember to change all the passwords at once so you don't get horribly confused.

I'm assuming people are using bugmenot/mailinator for non-personally-necessary logins. The only unique accounts and passwords for me are ones for work/school or loans/banking. For online purchases I'd rather not set up an account as it's just one more place that has my stored financial information...

I find that cycling keeps me much more occupied than jogging etc. while still being useful and exercise-y. First, I'm moving pretty fast and seeing new scenery (and cars that I need to watch out for) which helps keep my mind occupied, and second, I can justify it as something with purpose (visiting a friend, getting groceries, etc.). I used to jog up to the bank/drug store about a mile away, but it was too annoying to carry anything but the most lightweight stuff home jogging.

Those people are also the ones that are intimidating to those who aren't ripped. I wish there were periods of time like for beginners at gyms...or some such. Swimming is another good option, but for those who are embarrassed to be seen in a suit...

Course, this may be more of a girl thing.

get in line :P

I did it for the nookie...and you can take that cookie.

What criteria are you thinking about re: earning? Being employed? Being healthy? Being educated? Having money to pay for it?

Because now, as it stands, you generally have to have some combination of the above - a decent non-manual labor or service job and possibly the education to get it, or roll your own insurance plan where you have to pay - a quick check on an insurance quote site says a family plan for four with no smoking history is 300-600 USD a month.

When you get down to it, I think people who work "earn" their right to health care. And right now we're violating their rights.

While the .org site is nice and enticing, the footnote re: "May need add'l software" plus Okular's site being less than transparent about how to actually go about using it on Windows is a major barrier for, well, just about anyone who's non-techincal. Does anyone know of instructions somewhere re: how to set it up with Windows?

But isn't this awkward if you're a working homeless person? And it's more people than you think...about 40% of all homeless people work part-time, and I suspect these types of regulations make it harder.

and for a moment was wondering how a confused botnet master could be a security professional...

Hence the basic remark :)
I believe about a year back I was getting regular crashes, but this later version has appeared to stay more stable.

And yep, not too much experience in design/print media. Mostly as-needed, which does limit my experience. On the other hand, moving tangentially to one of the previous stories about service and volunteerism, for small non-profits with little money to spend on $800-ish packages (though perhaps there's a nonprofit discount) things like scribus have been usable.

Hmm. It does tend to be nicer if the data source is nice and usable in the first place rather than having to massage it into a better/easier format. Especially if you grab data regularly from a secondary source. Perhaps in that case the SQL-based filtering makes more sense. Can you do that with filters in something like calc, though? Or just in databases?

And while I can setup regexes and filter queries, can the average user? And you have to admit, in the end, I'm not the type that would be doing the data entry if I can write the queries...
