How much material can be mined in a single day by one person with a pickaxe?

Depends on how many hours of work and what kind of material you're talking about, as well as the skill of the miner.

How much is a musicians usual cut in record deals and advertising, particularly the big names? I ask because of a touch of cognitive dissonance with daft punk's discovery album, and such as this (old as it may be, the point still stands and likely will once more reemerge):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGJy822geAg. Sure, publicity. I haven't seen the tron remake, so i can't vouch for artistic merit on that part, but I'd be curious as to who can.

For those wondering as to the underlying narrative, I'd vastly appreciate music from sources not of the drugs and partying or quietly opulent variety. I have dying hope that Daft Punk is not the latter, and i have given them altogether too much ad revenue. Given what i have just said, please do not begin a death of the author argument.

What's the known incidence of webcam hacking?

What's the known incidence of webcam hacking?

Relatively common as a result of people downloading viruses onto their computers on their own.

How do they work? Given the likelihood of such affecting myself, I'd very much appreciate it. (If you know of it, your evalution of the relative usefulness of Symantec Endpoint Protection would be useful).

I have no idea how they work, only that they do. Hence why if you inspect any of my webcams, you would see they are covered in tape and cardboard. Or rather, you would see nothing.

My thoughts exactly. YAY for relevant tinfoil hats! You know, while I'm here i may as well ask about your thoughts on the *intentionally* omnipresent monitoring of everyone you see in post cyberpunk settings such as eclipse phase, presumably growing more popular now that we're moving into cyberpunk. In the example i gave, anyone and everyone can tell who you are and where, and it's seen as a defense mechanism, though bear in mind the inevitable wacky shit going on.

I, for one, welcome our new internet overlords.

How much does your average Joe make use of (not just use) the internet? I can't shake the feeling that many people are locked into a few sites or rarely venture out of their social networks.

What do you mean by "make use of the Internet" then?

[Doomblade187]

What do you mean by "make use of the Internet" then?

I would guess using the internet to improve one's own position in life, or to learn stuff, or things like that. I'll defer to the questioner, though.

Exactly, thank you.

That's one of the beauties of being involved in a social network, though. Somewhere there's a connection to news or random information popping up, and it makes its way around. Apart from subscribing to news and science sites, I don't know of a better way to "make use of the Internet" than social networking.

Forum. Games.
Be all, end all.

The problem is that people never comes to sites like this. I shouldn't have to explain what a forum is to youthful internet users.
