Is it really illegal to share music and movies from your computer?
YES IT IS !
ALL music and video content is protected by copyright laws ! Under those laws you are forbidden to 'copy, distribute or otherwise share the content without the owner's written permission.
Even copying a CD or DVD to your computer is actually illegal - whether that's just for your own use or not - you're still copying the content ! If you then copy music or video from your computer to (for example an MP3 or MP4 player) - you're guilty of distributing !
Having said that - I accept that kind of activity goes on all the time (even I copy music from my computer to my MP3 player to listen to while I'm walking). Technically it's still copyright theft. In theory - according to how copyright laws work - we should purchase a copy of the music etc for every device we want to use it on.
However - the authorities are more interested in those people who distribute large quantities of copied material - the 'pirates' who make distributing illegal copies an 'industry'.
I've yet to see a court case where 'Jane Bloggs' was arrested for copying Justin Bieber's music from her computer to her MP3 player !.... BUT - there have been a number of well-publicised cases where people have been caught making hundreds of copies of CD's, DVD's & videos.
What is advantages and disadvantages of using computer for shopping?
I'd say convenience is the best advantage of e-shopping. You don't need to leave the house to shop for your clothes, gifts, books, etc. All you have to do is look for trusted e-commerce sites, fill in the order form, and viola, "Hello online-purchased item!"
However, this same advantage could turn into its own disadvantage. You can end up shopping for more than you can pay for, which in turn could lead to debts. You wouldn't want that, right?
Another disadvantage I can think of is that you can't personally check on the products you're purchasing online. You might end up with the wrong size or something that is a bit damaged.
So you better know your "responsibilities" and what you're getting into if you choose to go e-shopping!
A researcher at Stanford has created an alternative to the mouse that allows a person using a computer to click links, highlight text, and scroll simply by looking at the screen and tapping a key on the keyboard. By using standard eye-tracking hardware--a specialized computer screen with a high-definition camera and infrared lights--Manu Kumar, a doctoral student who works with computer-science professor Terry Winograd, has developed a novel user interface that is easy to operate.
"Eye-tracking technology was developed for disabled users," Kumar explains, "but the work that we're doing here is trying to get it to a point where it becomes more useful for able-bodied users." He says that nondisabled users tend to have a higher standard for easy-to-use interfaces, and previously, eye-tracking technology that disabled people use hasn't appealed to them.
At the heart of Kumar's technology is software called EyePoint that works with standard eye-tracking hardware. The software uses an approach that requires that a person look at a Web link, for instance, and hold a "hot key" on the keyboard (usually found on the number pad on the right) as she is looking. The area of the screen that's being looked at becomes magnified. Then, the person pinpoints her focus within the magnified region and releases the hot key, effectively clicking through to the link.
Kumar's approach could take eye-tracking user interfaces in the right direction. Instead of designing a common type of gaze-based interface that is controlled completely by the eyes--for instance, a system in which a user gazes at a given link, then blinks in order to click through--he has involved the hand, which makes the interaction more natural. "He's got the right idea to let the eye augment the hand," says Robert Jacob, professor of computer science at Tufts University, in Medford, MA.
Rudimentary eye-tracking technology dates back to the early 1900s. Using photographic film, researchers captured reflected light from subjects' eyes and used the information to study how people read and look at pictures. But today's technology involves a high-resolution camera and a series of infrared light-emitting diodes. This hardware is embedded into the bezel of expensive monitors; the one Kumar uses cost $25,000. The camera picks up the movement of the pupil and the reflection of the infrared light off the cornea, which is used as a reference point because it doesn't move.
Even the best eye tracker isn't perfect, however. "The eye is not really very stable," says Kumar. Even when a person is fixated on a point, the pupil jitters. So he wrote an algorithm that allows the computer to smooth out the eye jitters in real time. The rest of the research, says Kumar, involves studying how people look at a screen and figuring out a way to build an interface that "does not overload the visual channel." In other words, he wanted to make its use feel natural to the user.
One of the important features of the interface, says Kumar, is that it works without a person needing to control a cursor. Unlike the mouse-based system in ubiquitous use today, EyePoint provides no feedback on where a person is looking. Previous studies have shown that it is distracting to a person when she is aware of her gaze because she consciously tries to control its location. In the usability studies that Kumar conducted, he found that people's performance dropped when he implemented a blue dot that followed their eyes.

How do you get a girl to get nakid for you?
Start out by getting a job. Earn some money and use it to take care of yourself. Buy yourself decent clothes, soap and shampoo, deodorant. Make yourself presentable. Then live life regularly, and if you happen to see a girl you find attractive, say hello and try to get to know her. If she likes you and you're not a jerk (maybe even if you are, some girls like that), maybe you'll get in her pants.
If you just want to see naked women online... search the web. Find free pornographic sites, and you'll get your rocks off eventually.

What are the serial port devices?
Parallel port devices are those devices which are connected to the computer via parallel ports. An example is Printer which is connected to the parallel port LPTx (Line Printer Terminal) eg: LPT1, LPT2, LPT3. Parallel ports were originally developed by IBM as a way to connect a printer to your PC. When a PC sends data to a printer or other device using a parallel port, it sends 8 bits of data (1 byte) at a time. These 8 bits are transmitted parallel to each other, as opposed to the same eight bits being transmitted serially (all in a single row) through a serial port. The standard parallel port is capable of sending 50 to 100 kilobytes of data per second.
Answer-- A parallel port is a type of interface found on computers (personal and otherwise) for connecting various peripherals. It is also known as a printer port or Centronics port. The IEEE 1284 standard defines the bi-directional version of the port.

How does computer use binary code?
Binary is a counting or numbering system with only 2 symbols - "0" and "1". When ever we count something, we start with nothing or "0". This is an important fact that is common between all numbering systems. We always start with 0 things and add from there. This is important because if all numbering systems didn't have this specific starting point, we could not translate between them.
The way binary works is this: starting with nothing we have "0", then we add one object to get "1". If we add another object, we force an overflow into the next column like this: "12 + 12 = 102" then "102 + 12 = 112"..."112 + 12 = 1002"
This is the same thing that happens in any numbering system. When the symbols are all used in the first column, adding another object forces an overflow into the next higher column of power. In Decimal, we are used to "1010" following 9, as in 9+1. In binary, there are only two symbols, so it overflows to the next higher column rather fast. The following is how we count in binary with four bits (Binary Digits)...
0000
0001
0010
0011
0100
0101
0110
0111
1000
1001
1010
1011
1100
1101
1110
1111
"1111" is the max count for four bits. In order to count another object, we have to use the next higher column... 10000.
