Then they become 'responsible' for the content served, including malware-infested ads. So long as that responsibility is enforcible, i.e. I can sue a site for sending me malware, then I see this as a good thing.
For that matter, why haven't the large ad networks been sued for 'hacking' i.e. serving malware?
I also think this could block lots of cookies used for SSO. Some people do actually like to be able to log using their twitter or github credentials.
I log into StackExchange with Google SSO and I have no problem typing in my password to do so. In fact, I find it disturbing that sometimes I _don't_ have to.
Note that StackExchange stores the login cookie between browser sessions, so I find that I only have to 'log in' about once a month or so, but I use the site daily.
My Nissan LEAF also tracks all your driving. Nissan's solution to the question of privacy is to pop a dialog on the in-dash touchscreen every time the car is started, asking you if you want to send your data to them. Unless you press "Yes", that drive is not tracked.

I was referring to the 63Ni. However, I am not a nuclear scientist and since the time of the post I reference I see that others have chimed in suggesting different decay routes. I'm not qualified to give any more opinion on the subject.
If you read the article, the reactions only work if you subject it to THz wave EM energy. So damaging this type of reactor would only ever have one kind of effect... it would stop working and go back to being a big lump of inert metal. Assuming it works in the first place after all.
Only after all the secondary products decay. According to another poster, this thing produces a product with a 100 year half life, that is only slightly less radioactive than plutonium 238 (88 years). How long do you plan on waiting for that to "go back to being a big lump of inert metal"?
The armpit is called "the house of the shoulder" in Semetic languages, so "house of Geuse" could be understood as "armpit of Geuse". Actually, the "Bet" is thought to be a misreading of "Yad" (very similar letters in Arabic) and the name was originally "Yad al Jauza" or the "hand of Jauza". I've yet to discover who Jauza is / was but I still do have some resources to check, just not the time!
If you or your lecturer are interested in any other star names, you can contact me. My Gmail username is the same as my/. username. In fact, I'm leaving later today for a ten day vacation to the arctic circle to see the northern nights for the first time, so you'll have to wait for an answer!
In a multi-body system there do exist balistic trajectories from one body which do not intersect either body again. However, the moon is too small and too distant to provide the effect from Earth. Conversely, I do believe that such trajectories could exist from the moon.
Actually, despite the eyesight and other issues, from what I have seen, older people, especially older women love tablets. Even some that type enough I wondered how they could prefer them. Not sure I get it, but I have seen that to be the case in several instances, and most of them had/have a desktop or laptop. So they aren't people new to computers.
The secret is in the short distance from the keyboard to the letters on the screen. This demographic needs to see the key to press, and to see the key appear on the screen.
I'm in Beersheba, Israel. We're in the Middle East, but we are a technology center. In the two national computer chains, all the affordable motherboards use a LAN which is not supported in any contemporary Linux distro: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/927782
This is representative of the market in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. I don't know about South and Central America. I understand from the replies here that North America currently has budget motherboards using supported NICs, or at least did when most people posting here last built a system. Note that these boards started becoming ubiquitous here at about summertime, and they now saturate the market.
We agree on every point, but I would like to clarify two:
1) Derivative works are great, but as a supplement to and not a replacement for original works.
2) The goal of copyright reform should be to produce the greatest benefit to society, but there is no way possible for it to benefit society if it does not benefit authors, i.e. produce incentive (financial) for the creation of new works.
I have recently ordered a PCI-E NIC to put away for when I'll need it, but they are not generally available here. I really could not find one. I did find a USB ethernet adaptor that required a 2.4 kernel and would not work on anything newer, but I intend to find a newer one and keep it in my toolbox as well.
But that does not address the issue of no contemporary budget motherboard today being supported / supporting any contemporary Linux distro. Sure there are workarounds and fixes, but the real problem needs to be addressed.
Thank you for a sane anecdote, as opposed to the raving that some OS-religious people have been spewing!
The company happens to be in the terrific situation of not being in a rush to push this out, and the users want something better than what they have. I agree that "at all costs" is not the way to move a company to Linux desktops. In this case, it really is win-win for both the company and the users to migrate some of the workforce who request it to KDE.
I guess you are right, this is sort of a side-project, but it is a company-sponsored side project which will likely save more money than it costs, and the cost is so minimal that it really isn't an issue (nor the goal) either way.
The spikes aren't providing traction or propulsion, they are holding it above the surface. It moves by inertia. There are three spinning disks that they change the rotation of, and that change in rotation makes the thing 'fall over', and hence move.
Also, they keep the solar panels covering the thing off the ground. Solar panels don't last long when used as a wheel.
It benefits society to have multiple sources for copies of works, and to have various sorts of copies of those works. You can go to a bookstore and buy copies of Shakespeare, and some of them will be of high quality, and others will be cheap, and you can go online and download the same works for free.
It also benefits society to encourage people to create new works of art, and not to simple repackage currently-existing material generation after generation (derivative works). Nobody but the composer or author is investing the time (and money for food and rent and kids' expenses) while the work is being created, except in the rare cases of already-established artists. And even in the case of the already-established artist, how do you think that they because established.
Creating art is an investment. Denying a return on that investment would prevent art from being created.
I do not get paid for work I did 8 years ago and I don't think you should either.
Did you take a loss on the work you did 8 years ago as an investment in its future value?
Why would a single entity pay a composer up front for the months or years it takes to create a symphony, when as soon as the work is release it has no financial value anymore? The composer or author works unpaid for long periods time as an investment for future earnings. I agree that it shouldn't be 70+ years, but a decade or even the author's lifetime really is reasonable. Extending that to a corporation's lifetime, or to heirs, it excessive to the point of being offensive.
Are you saying that I as a professional composer should let companies use my older music for free in commercial contexts, to benefit society? How could that possibly benefit anyone except the companies that already are completely nickel-and-diming freelancers like myself?
I have to say that as ambient music for working, the tracks on your homepage are terrific. I understand them to have been written for film scores, also a form of ambient music. I actually had to pause Beethoven's 9th to listen to them and I figured that I would bail out after a track or three to get back to my precious. But I'm now up to the 12th track (Interstellar Travel) and thoroughly enjoying it. They are more dramatic (remind me of Wagner) than I usually listen to, but they are not excessively dramatic like most Western film scores. I think that one would call that 'tasteful'.
I hope to be nearby in Tromso in a few months, are the films playing outside of Finland?
There is a driver. It is not in Linux mainline and not in Ubuntu by default. Vendor-supplied source works on Ubuntu, and you can use it in your boards as long as you won't update the kernel without also installing the driver for it. Ubuntu will release a package soon if Linux mainline won't get it first.
What else so you want, ponies?
I'm posting because there currently is no budget motherboard available that a simple user can purchase which will work with a contemporary Linux distro without downloading X, compiling Y, installing Z, etc. out of the box. You and I can work around this no problem, but the problem exists for the majority of users.
At the time, I was hoping to never have to touch it again! But now half a year later I see that all the motherboards are using that NIC. I was quiet when I should have moved then, so now I'm paying for it.
I will file an issue on the Canonical issue tracker about it, as I should have done months ago. Thanks.

Sequestering CO2 is easy. You just don't have a clue how it works. The CO2 is pumped into abandon oil fields at VERY high pressures.
From where do you think comes the energy to generate those high pressures? Hint: burning things and releasing CO2.

I for one have never heard of it.
Right, hence this 'story'. Now you've heard of it.
(b) its much smaller mass and lack of magnetic field make is impossible for Mars to hold an atmosphere that's much more than it has now.
Mass is not the issue, see Titan's atmosphere.
Nice! We often forget the trivials!
Why was this modded down? This is quite the most insightful comment here. Oh, AC mentioned Jews, that's why.
