The world benefits from docs not drivers. BSD and Linux drivers for framebuffers will be rather different. VIA will never ever support my OS of choice (Plan9) and I don't expect them to, thats what the documentation is for. And no, source code is not documentation when it comes to drivers, it's one person's interpretation of what they read/fiddled with to get it to work. Porting drivers is more work that you seem to think.
We didn't vote for it, it's a stealth operation. If you think you've got a good way of combating a 145 camera on every lamp post, we'd be glad to hear it !
Yep, I'd agree pretty much with that, CSP style programming is an ideal match for multi-threaded application development. Not having to think too much about synchronization and locking and mutexes is a boon.
That's the problem with being a member of the elite, I guess. Still, I suppose the CSP features of Ken Thompson C are beyond you as well. You'll have to stick to a single thread.
Get a better programming language. And if don't like the taste of that one (what? Dennis Ritchie & Brian Kernighan not good enough for you!) there are other CSP languages available (what? Sir Charles Hoare not good enough for you!)
Seriously, this problem has been solved for 30 years.
He's wrong. Unlike armed robbery, shoplifting won't get you 12 years in prison on your first offence whereas you can happily shoplift here knowing your first offence will be a caution that won't show up on a criminal records check, your second a small fine in the region of 100 euros and your third a larger fine maybe 500 euros (all depends on your income).
20% of that line, or rather it's the line my female colleague introduces me as to other females "he's our network penetrator", 20% it's worked out well:)
Since de-regulation of the power here in the UK, I get free electricity. Some guy comes and reads my meter and all the competitors for my billing leave it to the other.
Must be 10 grand by now, now that's a knock on the door I fear !
There's more to networking than IP, downloading data files and having them available across networks is entirely possible without giving away TCP/IP possibilities.
ATA over Ethernet is one such route, I'm sure there are more.
> Videos... well, I haven't seen too much art created by a member of the masses with a video camera. I see people causing all sorts of harm to themselves in online videos. I see a lot of cute/stupid/weird things.
If you want to see zero budget video camera movies worth watching you should broaden your cultural horizons to include the short films genre of cinema.
My local cinema promotes such stuff and their film festival has some material online, see if you can spot which ones are zero-low budget.

The land is still not yours, you just own a piece of paper that the King will use violence to enforce on your behalf.
When you spend most of the time with your avatar's back facing you, it is an issue.
And I was a master tailor in DAoC so ner !
That's odd, I thought that the EQ2 gfx were one of the best features second only to SWG.
All those flappy capes takes me back to DAoC!
I would have said the Diablo series brought more ppl to WoW than Starcraft, but that's just a guess.
RS232 is not legacy.
What if I didn't like the operating system in my car ?

There's more to the OSS world than Linux, I'd rather they released the docs than write a line of Linux code.

If you're committing crimes out of necessity you will always lose, you should do them just for fun.

"I'm a network penetrator" has got me laid a couple of times (out of about ten).

Incompetent
There are non-routeable networking protocols that exist not just tcp/ip. It's quite easy really, just needs competent implementers.
There's more to networking than IP, downloading data files and having them available across networks is entirely possible without giving away TCP/IP possibilities.
