Not really it's all the douchebags around the government. The main one being the minster of IT who is the one banning the websites.
He's an old robotics engineer, that some how makes him qualified to be minister of IT..
I'd also like to point out that Jonathan Head, the bbc correspondent is a self proclaimed enemy of the monarchy and has got himself into hot water before. That wouldn't particularly matter that much however he's a very corrupt man and his news reports leave out facts which make them extremely bias. He is also known for hosting meetings with corrupt officials that were kicked out of the government for corruption.
His being part of the BBC has really made me realise how actually the news we get is only as good as the man reporting it.
In short you shouldn't read anything on Thailand from the BBC because it's stained with this guys bias.
The reason we'd be moving left to right would be to see something which isn't in the frame.
An idea I have been thinking about for awhile is to have the remote camera move when the user on the other side does. This would be much more convenient instead of having to ask the person to keep adjusting the camera angle to see outside the frame.
Johnny Lee didn't invent this, it's been done tons of times before he even started his PHD thesis on using the wii mote.
Look at the paper "3D display based on motion parallax using non-contact 3d measurement of head position"
All Dr Lee did was a much simpler demo with a 3d box and 2D sprites using a wii mote instead of a camera and now everyone worships him like he's so amazing for it.
If you did some research into it you'd realise that his demo sucks and if you read his paper he doesn't go into any detail at all about it. If I remember correctly it was one paragraph in his entire paper.
The only reason which makes Johnny's demo so popular is because he put it on youtube, that's it.
If he's working in such an enormous company, there should be some sort of integrator type person running around who should be aware of this and have at least some type of long-term plan to make all the current divisions use the same (or a couple of semi-compatible systems).
While the beta stumbles in a couple of cases, overall it performs within a few percentage points of Windows XP, actually outrunning XP in multiple benchmarks.
and Windows XP out runs windows 7 and Vista in other benchmarks too..
They used paedophile smears, criminal damage and bomb hoaxes to intimidate companies associated with Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS) in Cambridgeshire.
...
They also sent hoax bombs parcels and made threatening telephone calls to firms telling them to cut links with HLS.
One of the features of intimidation included sending used sanitary items in the post to the firms and daubing roads outside managers' homes with slogans such as "puppy killer".
They use animal testing as an excuse to be violent. The same goes for pro life people that bomb abortion clinics.
These people are particularly nasty. Threatening a judge to get their way makes them no better then organised crime.
I find some of their methods disgusting. How they can send people their used tampons with a letter saying they have aids is just beyond any level of human thinking.
They should be proud that their service can be used for making anonymous death threats, because that also means that it can be used to express unpopular political ideas. That you don't understand this means that you don't understand freedom of speech.
That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. You obviously know nothing about the UK Animal right activists that the article mentions.
This is a list of some of the things they did with their freedom of expression..
- paper mailed everyone who lived near their targets lists notifying them that they lived next to a paedophile. (fuck the truth, right? Animals are our friends so lets blackmail to get our point across) - sent death threats to their targets. - sent used and bloodied sanitary towels in letters mentioning they have HIV
I mean really, how fucked up do you have to be to send your used tampons in the mail?
If you're defending these people then you're spitting on the very freedom of expression you think you're promoting.
What you're saying is that people should be black mailed by an anonymous mob, rather then try and debate their points which is just wrong. People shouldn't have to live in fear just because a few neanderthals can't be bothered to do some basic research into topics they're protesting against.
1) I'm pretty sure windows updates are downloaded automatically to my computer.
2) Anything you download off Microsoft.com can use the windows genuine tool to check if your copy of windows is genuine, there's no need for the IE only plugin.
You could argue that the automatic updates tool is somehow connected to IE however I don't think the EC would care if you left that all in and got rid of IE the program.

The last thing Thailand needs is more discussion on politics.
What Thailand needs is to shut up while a government actually gets to run it's full term without a coup happening every year.
We've been through, what.. 3 Prime ministers in less then 2 years.

The article didn't go into any detail about this.
Anyone know how many libraries of congress this is?
They may use that engine, yes, however they have an existing code base.
You can't just switch to Ogre if your code base is using Gamebryo.

man, you're so damn old.. :P
because most AAA games are made with exisiting code bases.
Fallout 3 - An improvement upon Oblivion's engine which was an improvement upon Morrowind's engine.
Source Engine - They took a copy of Half-Life 1's code base.
I'm not going to list everything but you get the idea. If a company was starting from scratch then yes, Ogre would be a viable choice.
It's important to point out that although Ogre is under LGPL a company can license it and not have to contribute back.
Why waste the human resources?
Exactly, just turn it on and if it does make a black hole well, great! Now we can study one up close and learn new things about the universe.
You're serious? Like windows? *head explodes*
Yet another open source FPS.. like we didn't have enough already. :(
Why do you assume it to be slower? I would rather the compiler optimise the assembly then a human which tends to make mistakes.
It's true that human optimisation of assembly used to be faster but these days and on multiple different processors, I very much doubt it.
and Windows XP out runs windows 7 and Vista in other benchmarks too..
They're the police, they have to investigate, it's their job.
Just like if you jokingly say you're a terrorist at the airport, they still have to investigate and make sure you're not.
Are you fucking kidding? These people ARE criminals!

Actually..
First they came for the animal testers, but I did not speak up because I was not an animal tester.
After being convicted by a judge they came for the judge... etc...
You do realise the whole fucking article is about the UK? What's you point with this shit?
So you're saying if you're a policeman and someone said they don't keep IP addresses you wouldn't investigate if it were true?
I hope you never become a police officer, you'd be the worst "pig" on the street.
"I didn't kill him"
"oh, well then you can go free!"
Too late, calling the police.
No they don't.
They use animal testing as an excuse to be violent. The same goes for pro life people that bomb abortion clinics.
These people are particularly nasty. Threatening a judge to get their way makes them no better then organised crime.
I find some of their methods disgusting. How they can send people their used tampons with a letter saying they have aids is just beyond any level of human thinking.
So the police shouldn't take the server and investigate for themselves?
"oh geeze well they say the don't have the logs, guess we should take their words for it"
or maybe they wanted to look themselves and not just take their word of it? *facepalm*
