The difference lies in the degree of efficiency provided by the combination of a permanently recording device with a database. Labeling your environment nowadays means taking out your cellphone, photograph the scenery, upload it online and do some research about all people visible. This takes too much time for someone to seriously exploit it. Google Glass on the other hand is supposed to do all this stuff in real time and label and upload the currently recorded data too even from complete strangers you don't know or care about but others do. Incidents, that would go unnoticed otherwise would be immediately escalated to the worst possible level in Google's intent to make the info available to everyone who might be interested. Like "Watch photos of Steve getting drunk on a distant mountain resort where he hoped nobody knew him".
If you join a discussion, never ever use arguments! It suggests that your position is not as clear and widely accepted as you think it is and provides your opponent with something to attack! Its far more efficient to dismiss his claim with a witty one-liner and a derogatory "bah" *thumb down*.

I would rather get another dog and try to make his individual being love and respect me as the old one did and try to love and respect him for what he is.
Cloning cheapens the value of the individual existence. The reason why people want copies is so they can forget about the original.
From my personal experiences, most women prefer jobs with the following characteristics:
- significant communicative aspects
- organisatorial tasks
- social component
- cultural themes
- enough time for family
which denies the following blessings of technical employeeships:
- knowing 73 types of secure asynchronous communication protocols, but no one to communicate with
- spending days and nights to build uberous complicated technical designs consumers will control with one button
- the six o clock horror
- spending saturday evenings home alone searching red herrings Scott Meyer's didn't catch.
- ambituous discussions about the physical laws of Middle Earth and the Vulcan
- never going into management because it takes social competence which you actively dropped for learning Ruby.
My only way to get out of this mess would be ahuge amount of many. But my company owns all my patents...
i need gameboy for love
What really sucks about slideshows are the idiots who try to cram 3 chapters in 6 pt font on a single slide, then read the damned slide to you.
And even more suck people who don't have those 3 chapters - the slides is all they have.
and it encourages the dangerous habit of studying your notes instead of studying the actual concepts/material
Scripts aren't about getting the perfect and complete explanation that will fulfill all your knowledge needs for the far future. Scripts are about learning which habitual trivias the professor will ask for in his exam.
The advantage of blackboard lectures is usually that you get a full script that will at least let you pass the test. Better than slides which don't even give you an idea that you should even read books.
All the business professors at my college tend to use it these days, because they are too lazy to create a real scripture. For people like me who need to read a detailed text calmly at home to understand certain parts this is just ugly.
Renting is only feasible in cases where the end of usage can effectively be determined. However, since companies and home userstend to extend the usage terms as long as possible for compatibility with present systems and the user base as well for realiability issues not many customers might accept this.
It might only work in areas where the software needs to permanently be updated like virus removal tools etc. but that would rather be a content renting modal than software.
Just to make it clear from the beginning: I'm not a Linux expert. Rather a person who stumbles upon it from time to time, so excuse me if I get anything wrong in the following.
As far as I understand, a packet manager doesn't make anything more than checking the version of the packets registered at it, downloading updated versions if present and running the appropriate packet manager. The packet manager then places the files in absolute paths determined by the person who compiled and linked the binaries.
My question is, why do they depend on absolute paths at all as they seem to differ on many distributions.
Couldn't you just code the applications in a manner that uses adaptive paths, for example, instead of "use the kde libraries that are installed in folder opt/bin/whatever which might be a fully different path in a different distribution" the coder says something like "get the kde library path from some providing service and use that".
Instead of having the coder anticipate how the distributions paths etc. look like, it's in the distribution's creator's duty to provide the binary all the information needed to correctly install it. Of course, it would take some standard that exactly describes how a service, that provides this information, would have to look like and which information to provide.
A second question would be why the source releases, which have to be compiled by the user, are not additionally delivered in a pre-parsed manner. It would probably save a lot of time during compilation.
Thanks in advance

Science describes how the world is.
Ethics describe how it's supposed to be.
Both may not desire the same.
So no.

I always thought I was saving my big hairy, yet easily influencable lover from that blonde haired vamp who tried to turn him around.
I considered it a tragic ending when he finally fell.
Death is cheap.
I can't wait till I can punch someone in the face using a 3D model of me delivered to him via AirPrint.

Why do all familiy-friendly politics involve screwing at least half of the family in some way? :D
