He paid (much more than $300, if he bought new) for the reliability. And the Cisco 1800 series definitely does do some things your WRT54G just doesn't have the horsepower for.
You're still conflicting. What if the author chooses the BSD license? Then the licensee would be free to distribute modified binaries without source anyway.
I don't even want to be protected from myself when I'm doing something stupid.
I only want the government to protect me from other people. What I do to myself is my own business, even if it's something stupid. I have the God-given right to FUCK myself over.
Well, guess what? The few times I was intentionally thrown into a dangerous situation by my father were the times I learned the most.
I learned to swim by being thrown into a swimming pool. At the time, it was as frightening as all get-out, but as I look back on it, not only did I learn a lot, but my father was ready to get me out if necessary.
Not that I noticed that when at the time, when my adrenaline was going at full tilt.
So long as we were within that roughly 1-mile radius of "we can hear mom when she screams our names off the back porch", whatever we could get into was fair game. You could hear your mother from a mile away? You must have lived in the middle of nowhere.
I can't put my finger on it right now, but one of my favorite Darwin Awards entries was a person talking on their cellphone on the train tracks as a train was approaching. The engineer blew the horn to try to alert the person, and the person stuck their finger in their ear to hear their conversation better.
The reason why Russell has a different perspective from Crawford is that Crawford is comparing the US to other industrialized countries, and Russell is comparing the US to ALL countries, including places that have trouble providing electricity and running water, let alone internet.
J&J are a giant conglomerate pharmaceutical manufacturer. You've probably used their products (even wherever you live) without even knowing they were made by J&J.
Someone needs to start a movement to mandate open source. Not mandate GPL mind you; a copyright holder should be able to offer any licence (s)he wishes.
Do you realize that your first sentence conflicts logically with your second?
One observation. Microsoft hires a lot of "A" students in Computer Science. These people are those who tend to be better at school than at writing code. When I went to school, I observed that many of the best programmers were "C" students, because they spent all their time in the lab screwing around with their own code, and less time studying.

Mod parent up. Just because you don't get the joke doesn't mean it's offtopic.
If memory serves, the monitor was a bog-standard Trinitron.
Who says they didn't? Do you speak dinosaur?

If it ever got cheap, GaAs would be great. It's just too damn expensive.
It outperforms most stuff in heavily-parallelized workloads. The legacy of the Scalable POWERPARALLEL. (An IBM supercomputer line that ran AIX.)

It would be better in the form of non-fiction.
Too bad reality wasn't protected from him.
Depends on the city. Talk to someone who grew up in Bed-Stuy or the South Bronx in the '70's and '80's sometime.
I am old enough to have played with lawn-darts. Hours of fun those were. Oh! And horseshoes. I've seen PLASTIC horseshoes in stores, for God's sake.

No, he just ate too many crayons when he was a kid.

They are indeed the ones who make the Baby Oil.

Trident was ok, but I always had better luck with S3.
