Incorrect, it would be the rotation around the axis, with a likely eclipse each orbit, but unless the orbit were *VERY* small, that eclipse wouldn't be more than an couple hours per few days.
The day/night cycle would be as long as the orbit only if the moon were tidally locked.
I thought the windows one was made of broken glass, and the linux one had a point out to the side (front if standing up) like a little beak.
BSD has two points at the end and a pitch fork.
MacOSs can only be used on one part of the body, and only in one room of the house, only at the time Mr. Jobs lets you use it, and only with Apple approved partners...
BS. There is no way to tell an legal/illegal file reliably.
Simply put - lets say you go searching various sources for pirated music. You then take a checksum of the files you find.
(1) The database will be large, but probably manageable, More than most people would want on their personal computers though (2) You can't be sure that you've gotten everything, or even a decent sampling - so it'll falsely report many as legal (3) Although limited in scope, there would be false negatives, what if someone has a legitimate copy, which was legitimately copied by a 3rd party and distributed? What if it was encoded by a lossless mechanism (flac, some aac, etc), and therefore ended up with the same checksum as another person who also losslessly encoded it, then shared it?
There is no good way to CYA here except ditch all of your digital music and then re-rip and re-legitimately download. As you stated, this kind of tool would be only be useful for the tools at the *IAA, who would probably be fine with a 99% false negative rate (and false positives are nice!), as long as they can find a couple and extort their victims, while the legitimate user would need a 1% false negative and positive rate.
Or Smaug (can't remember what it does, but yes, it's named after the dragon), or MAD (Mothers Against Decapentapalegia, which, when mutated, produces limbless flies).
Apples record shows them to be control freaks, but standard in a way. They want all the control for themselves, however any control they don't have, their first choice seem to be to give it to their users, not 3rd parties. At worst, they usually make some easy to get around 'fix' to make the 3rd parties happy, at best, they fight the 3rd parties (i.e. eventually allowing some DRM-free music from iTunes)
I can't see Apple bending over for the movie theaters (or at least, doing it without finding some way to laugh at the movie theater's idiocy). They are in the business of making others bending over, not themselves...
Alternatively, if people start boycotting things that are sent as spam... It could still be profitable, by driving customers away from your strongest competitor, and thus, driving some to you.
You are correct, we've blown way past it. We reached it in the 50s or 60s.
When land destruction (land no longer usable for agriculture) due to human use, is surpassed by the rate of land reclamation (land being made useful again), we have passed sustainability, at which point the only question is "how long?"
This happened in the 50s or 60s if I remember what I've read correctly.
I'm trying to decide if you're being serious, or sarcastic, showing how silly the anti-mono people are. Assuming the former.
It can also be targeted by OSS zealots in a FUD campaign. In fact, unlike such a campaign by MS, it, in fact, already has been, and continues to be. So what?
Groups making use of Java can be targeted by Oracle FUD. in fact, unlike Mono from MS, they have.
As for being able to make it better or not, the Mono project has added GTK bindings, so your logic. So much for no improvement there. Maybe it's not a core part of the runtime, but they can always add things to their implementation, and they can always make compatibility libs to run on the MS implementation, if less efficiently.
Hmm, wait, Java is controlled by Oracle, so the same issue is present there too, and like.NET/Mono, there are now Open source Java implementations.
So again, aside from tasks which it is not intended (single platform development), and the owner of.NET is not actively harassing groups making implementations (full compatibility or related), how is Java different.
Actually, given those standard,.NET/Mono is starting to look like a better alternative.

No. No you aren't.

I just wonder what kind of things people stored there they wouldn't want to get around the internet... that might now be getting around the internet.
I use foxit. There's also Okular. I probably shouldn't forget [g|k|x]pdf... Plenty of alternatives to acrobat.
OK. They never actually explained it in my developmental genetics classes, the prof just said, "Yes, it is a reference to The Hobbit."

Aye, but Apple is unlikely to implement a patch.

Yes, then you just have to worry about an OS so "secure" it can be jailbroken just by visiting a website!
More like:
"Hey, check out this copy protection scheme..."
What about those who know C/C++, but actually prefer .NET for many tasks?
I think it's an inverse squared relationship...
That's slashdot for you. "Olds for geeks, stuff that probably doesn't matter."

Hey! Be fair! I'm sure there are a lot of goats that take offense at that.
But there are times one branch of the government will side against the actions of the government.
That's one advantage of a government that isn't a cohesive whole, it significantly reduces the cases of the government getting away with abuse.

please accept my +1 insightful pseudomod.
Did they stop bribing the editors?

You can reference arrays out of bounds in C without checking if the access is valid... Doesn't make it a good idea.

The same could be said for Java or many other similar setups for linux-only apps.
The point is cross platform.
