Unfortunately, that's the whole point... it's all about justifying the buildup of the police state. From drugs all the way through reactions to terrorism.
It's not that Linux isn't a great OS (I use it for server-side stuff) but it certainly doesn't provide the polished overall experiences that Microsoft or Apple do.
That's an illusion. Look at all the crazy problems people have with PCs now. People are just afraid of change.
Noooo, the burden of proof should always be on the attacker. That's what is sooo backwards in our system. It's what allows big media and corps to get away with all this bullshit, and because they have billions of dollars for legal expenses it's almost an impossible roadblock to most people to defend against.
What we need in addition to this are mass drivers. Rail gun systems designed purely for in-animate mass and materials. They would reduce launch costs to Men and capsules alone. Build everything in space I say, plenty of room.
Yup. Been there, done that. Corporations discovered it long ago, pushed coke(acola), got banned(then sold the patents to the government who gleefully use it every day.)
Well then...the only solution seems to be to abolish self-interested governments the world over and replace them with a truly transparent public run system where everyone gets a tablet or phone to vote with that also stores the vote info locally. That way, the vote is transmitted and counted and can be recounted and confirmed by querying the devices again.
This is basically asking them to support repair for a product that we've modified away from their working specs. I don't think it's fair to hold them responsible for the costs. And we can still work with them to support it.
U.S. carriers have 538 MHz of spectrum dedicated to mobile data and voice and are only using 192 MHz, the two analysts said in a report released Sept. 22.

Again, they pull this kind of BS over Christmas...
Thing is...people, as a general rule, think they already understand everything ...because the media keeps them informed.
Google.... (tongue in cheek)
Nope! I'm buying a Wii!! :D
Good Lord, does everything innovative have to become a weapon!?

Also, you can just disable auto-updates and go manual if you're technically inclined.

There should be a "WTF?" mod

I want to learn applied quantum physics. Because it's impossible to learn it the regular way...
Actually, I was eating multi-grain bread!
I laughed so hard I got sunflower seed fragments in my nasal cavities!
should be very, very illegal. Why isn't this being investigated?

I agree! Daamn that's cool!
I feed it too much though, it's nearly reached critical mass from all the spam. My os will soon be sucked into oblivion.
Time to repeal corporate rights laws then.
mines called /dev/null. Works even faster.

From the article,

That strikes me as roughly 2.5x, not 24.
