Tell you what, why don't you go to a car enthusiast forum and ask them why they waste their time trying to get ancient cars working instead of learning modern car mechanics?
Expect a barrage of flames to hit you in the kisser.
I thought slavery had been replaced by salaried employees "forced" into working unpaid overtime? Same shit different wrapping. Especially if you put no-compete clauses into the equation.
Would you also accept that a murderer could choose to go to court in a no-death-penalty state if they committed a murder in a death-penalty state? That is akin to what Microsoft are doing, shopping Union-wide for the "best" treatment for each separate law aspect.
640 kB, out of the IBM PC's total memory of 1 MB, was definitely enough for user applications in an age where VisiCalc came in a 27 kB executable, yes. As I understand it, that was what Mr. William Gates III was talking about; Operating systems, even kindergarten-level boot loaders like DOS, need some memory of their own too.
Anyway: Usage grows to fill available memory and bandwidth, independent on actual need, it seems. So any amount is sufficient, but a higher amount is just "more sufficient" in that it can support more usage ideas.
The French electoral system, which, like all other such systems starts with small cliques of career politicians deciding who of them should be rewarded this time, then the general public gets to decide which of these alternatives should actually "win" the position, while lobbyists sets the real agenda.
Why the focus on girls? It's also statutory rape if a grown woman has sex with a teenage boy.
Anyway, age of consent varies form 12-21 or thereabouts across the world. Are you saying that someone form Canada who had legal sex with a 14-year-old should be branded a sex criminal once he crossed the border into a U.S. state with a higher age of consent?
Pedophilia applies to desires for prepubescent children. A 13 year old is not that.
Yeah, I also complain when Canon's software does not fire up when I connect a Nikon camera. Oh wait I don't because I do not have unreasonable expectations.
GET A CLUE! There is no requirement for device vendor A's software to work with device vendor B's products. If they want that, device vendor B should ask device vendor A to add such support.
In the case of iTunes, it seems there is an insistence of some argumentative sorts here to ignore that there is a difference between "iTunes the app" and "iTunes the music library" - the latter is just a directory structure and documented files with structure and metadata information. All vendors are free to access this, but Palm choose not to, out of laziness.
Palm choose to screw with a device standard in order to avoid hiring some cheap Mac OS programmer to write a simple sync application of their own. Stop making up excuses on their behalf, please.
(And ask them instead what they would have done if a device manufacturer back in the day faked a Palm identity in order to piggyback on the Hotsync application...)
... that we have failed to remove the nuclear weapons from the only country which have used them against civilians, and which (allegedly) also wanted to use them in Korea and Vietnam (only prevented through presidential refusal), I cannot see how we can deny them to others. United States, in case you wondered.
Iran's mistake was signing the NPT, if they had not they probably could have gotten what knowledge and materials they needed on the black market and not been bound by that treaty. It's not like North Korea is being punished for selling this to whomever pays them...
I reckon someone who hits the gym regularly (not necessarily daily even) will have more... shall we say... mating potential
Aha! I knew gyms were just a front for coupling services, a flesh market. Largely based on the observations that people in gyms tend to already be well fit when they start attending.
Artist should also be subject to "three strikes", where all their works enter the public domain if they are caught three times snorting coke or doing whatever other criminal activities it seems the well-paid lawyers of the music industries get them very lenient punishments for.
"Yes, your Honor, my client did take drugs but sine he is an important celebrity he should spend three months at Betty Ford (paid by the record sales) instead of six months in jail."
Pure capitalism doesn't work because the capitalists run crying to Mommy State whenever they lose money instead of taking the bankruptcy on the chin and move on. There are no pure capitalists, just groups of lobbyists trying to have laws made that benefit them.
Case in point: When Bush Jr. imposed tariffs on imported steel to cushion the relatively few steel PRODUCING jobs at the cost of the larger steel CONSUMING industries which no longer could get cheap steel.
Depends on how many servers/worlds you split the players across, ref. Eve Online's single server or the server merges hitting less popular games as the initial rush of players leave for greener pastures. A game can be profitable without WoW class numbers.
Also: What counts as file sharing software? Do they have a list that includes Opera 9 and 10 (which includes Bittorrent support) or Blizzard Downloader (which downloads patches to World of Warcraft using peer-to-peer tech? Heck, if you right-click a folder in Windows and elect to share it on your network, is that "file sharing"?
Paranoid much? "Left" seems to be a swear word among people who want to replace Western civilized liberalism with some feudal conservative hatemongering more prevalent in the Mid-eastern countries the same hatemongerers pretend to attack. When in reality right-wingers just don't want a mirror...
No that is a myth. The more likely cause of the ban is so that the racist police in the thirties could have another excuse to rough up the main users of the drug, i.e. blacks and hispanics.
These days it is maintained mostly due to Big Medicine and keeping the jobs in the Drug Enforcement Agency safe.
Practically all "legal drugs" at some time were illegal. And if we legalize e.g. marijuana then that too enters the realm of legal drugs...
What you need to look at is why drug A is legal and drug B is illegal. In general it comes down to "legal is what the lawmakers use" - there is no medical reason why alcohol spirits should be legal, and just as strong arguments for legalizing marijuana as e.g. red wine.
I saw an article in The Economist (I think) about how home ownership (American dream and all that) is a major contributor to unemployment rates because home owners are far more tied to the spot than people who merely rent from someone else.
Plenty of female sex offenders: - Topless sunbathing count in many locations - Anti-fur protesters baring their mammaries - Under-18 gals using their mobile cameras to snap a nude shot (child porn manufacturing) and sending it to their boyfriends (... plus distribution).
And then there seems to be an endless stream of female teachers "knowing in a Biblical sense" their male pupils.
Interesting aside: Age of consent in New York was apparently 10 until women's rights advocates got it bumped up to 16 in the 1880-1890s sometime.
We cannot tackle crime unless we also address the causes of crime, such as family breakdown, drug abuse and binge drinking.
All of which these cameras probably will help with. The Conservatives are very unlikey to remove them, at least, if set up before any change of government.
But the app store is for distributing BINARIES, the GPL deals with SOURCE. There is no requirement the binaries and source must be distributed in the same bundle, though they often are.
All you need is an "about" page or something outlining where to get the source, e.g. some hosting URL or an email address.
The $99 (which in practice is the price of the code signing certificate they give you) is only for distributing the BINARIES on the App Store.
It is NOT AT ALL required to distribute the SOURCE, or to build it from the source (you just need the free registration to download the SDK - provided you have a modern Mac from the outset of course).

Where did you get the idea that Apple don't test apps? How can you even deduce something even close to that from the summary or the article?
When no binary is uploaded (as in this case) there is nothing to test anyway, but also nothing to approve and put in the store.
It is more Android users who need to be wary about malware since they can download apps outside of the "official" store.

I thought crunch-time code-monekys went for amphetamines instead of cocaine when the caffeine stopped working?

Maybe the American Dream should be amended.
If someone enters an agreement with a newsstand that they frequent that they should put aside a copy of the WSJ for them to buy every day,
THAT IS A SUBSCRIPTION. And it is a form of subscription closer to the Amazon way. No it is not a direct subscription but not all subscriptions are.
Plenty of female sex offenders:
- Topless sunbathing count in many locations
- Anti-fur protesters baring their mammaries
- Under-18 gals using their mobile cameras to snap a nude shot (child porn manufacturing) and sending it to their boyfriends (... plus distribution).
